State vs OM Game Thread?

[BeardoMSU]

Waiting on the SB game to end...

[msstate7]

I'm getting tired of watching Jordan k on fastballs down the middle

[ZedFedder]

Wonder if Jordan is trying too hard.

His hits are about the same, he is just striking out a lot more lately.

[Ranchdawg]

Come on don?t hit batters and don?t walk batters! Don?t start that crap.

[msstate7]

Jordan and Hines can drive you insane

[Brobi-wan]

Can’t get the game on my phone. To heck with Kemper county.

[BeardoMSU]

Holy. Shit.

Clown shoes.

[msstate7]

Since college baseball has horrible camera work, most likely stands

[ZedFedder]

Wow. Inning ending DP. Replay shows he is safe, but Lemonis does not challenge in time. Run would have scored.

[StateDawg44]

Wtf was Lemonis waiting on for the challenge?! He was clearly safe.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Not challenging the DP, Oof.

[BeardoMSU]

Ok, that makes sense, but jesus.

[msstate7]

Wow. Inning ending DP. Replay shows he is safe, but Lemonis does not challenge in time. Run would have scored.

I think he was safe, but didn't see difinitive angle

[BeardoMSU]

Was bitching out Chance for not stealing. Ump didn't give him the challenge after.

[StateDawg44]

I think he was safe, but didn't see difinitive angle

He was 100% safe and was clear live.

[Ranchdawg]

Damn Lemonis. You get on my everlasting nerve. Delayed challenging the double play the play at 1st. Replay shows a possibility that he was safe at first. If safe at first we score a run. If Lemonis gets fired or stays he needs to get his head out of his butt.

[msstate7]

I keep thinking Kohler can't be this bad... he just can't be this bad... soft ground ball, again

[Saltydog]

Kohler is an automatic out at this point. It's not like he's in a slump and if so it's been since game 1. He just doesn't hit anything hard at all.

[BeardoMSU]

I keep thinking Kohler can't be this bad... he just can't be this bad... soft ground ball, again

Aye...

[msstate7]

Kohler is an automatic out at this point. It's not like he's in a slump and if so it's been since game 1. He just doesn't hit anything hard at all.

It's so odd. Even if you say, well, he didn't face sec pitching last year, he can't hit OOC either. Is he hurt or something? It's odd

[magrooder]

What a play by Hujsak!

[EdwardDrayton]

Hugesak flashin' the wheels.

[msstate7]

I'm calling a Kohler hot streak starting his next PA. He's about to redeem himself

[magrooder]

Good inside out swing by Dakota

[CaptainObvious]

I think Koehler is what he is. If we favor defense at 3rd, we have to deal with a Mendoza batter.

Unfortunately, we will have to deal with 3 to 4 automatic outs because there is NO depth (Thanks Lemonis). And then we have to deal other a lot of LOBs due to unproductive ABs by Jordan and Hines. We have to have those 4 or 5 run innings because this offense is going to hang some ZEROS on the board!

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Maddox with just 45 pitches through 4 innings. We aren’t making him work at all.

[msstate7]

The fact we got Georgia into pitching duals tells me 2 things...
1. We can really pitch
2. We can't hit a f'n lick

[EdwardDrayton]

Like what Hunter tried to do though. Went the other way with the 2-0 pitch. Just did not find enough of the gap. That approach will pay off before the game is over.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Maddox with just 45 pitches through 4 innings. We aren’t making him work at all.

And Stephen with just 50 pitches through 4 innings.

We’ve played 4 innings in less than 55 minutes

[EdwardDrayton]

And Stephen with just 50 pitches through 4 innings.

We’ve played 4 innings in less than 55 minutes

Khal 'Kong' gettin' it done. Score some runs.

[DawgFromOxford]

Top of 5. Chance standing on 2nd no outs thanks to a throwing error

[DawgFromOxford]

Sac bunt and a Kohler ground out have us up 1-0.

[msstate7]

Larry has an obscene amount of pop ups on the IF

[mparkerfd20]

Top 4 need to get their head out of their asses

[EdwardDrayton]

The pitch clock is a stain on the game of baseball.

[ZedFedder]

The fact we got Georgia into pitching duals tells me 2 things...
1. We can really pitch
2. We can't hit a f'n lick

This all day. Pitching has kept us alive the last few weeks.

[magrooder]

Jordan two run shot

[EdwardDrayton]

BOOM!!

[EdwardDrayton]

DJ pulls the hands in!! Beautiful!!!

[DawgFromOxford]

Atta boy Jordan!

[msstate7]

Atta boy, Jordan... carry this team!

[EdwardDrayton]

Hunter's approach tonight is money.

[magrooder]

two on no outs

[somebodyshotmypaw]

We have a shot to really break this open.

[magrooder]

Balked runners to 2 and 3

[somebodyshotmypaw]

4-0. One out. Runner on 3rd.

[DawgFromOxford]

runners on 2nd and 3rd with no outs. Have to find a way to capitalize

[magrooder]

4-0 one out man on third

[DawgFromOxford]

runners on 2nd and 3rd with no outs. Have to find a way to capitalize

Chance comes through runner on 3rd. 1 out. 4-0

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Runners on the corners.

[EdwardDrayton]

See ya' Riley 'I ain't no Greg' Maddox. Send in the clown.

[Saltydog]

Can Kohler deliver again?

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Maddox dominated us through 5. Now we’ve knocked him out. Let’s get some more runs in this inning. And Khal needs to be careful when he comes back out after sitting in the dugout longer than normal.

[msstate7]

I'm calling a Kohler hot streak starting his next PA. He's about to redeem himself

^^^

[DawgFromOxford]

Let's go Kohler!! gets a hit and drives in a run

[EdwardDrayton]

5-0.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

5-0 bases loaded and one out

[DawgFromOxford]

bases loaded 1 out for Larry... Come on!

[EdwardDrayton]

Johnny 'Holmes' Long with the BB.

[BrunswickDawg]

Let's go Kohler!! gets a hit and drives in a run

Kohler serving up some crow to Elite posters.

[magrooder]

Larry gets a run in with the ground out. Really need to move him down in the line up.

[EdwardDrayton]

6-0

[magrooder]

Mershon with 2 run double

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

My god I love destroying OM it's like free viagra

[EdwardDrayton]

8-0. Keepin' on.

[SaintDawg]

And the rout is on… Jeezus

[somebodyshotmypaw]

We have a shot to really break this open.

And we have. Big inning.

[DawgFromOxford]

Mershon wiht a 2 hit inning

[BeardoMSU]

This pleases me, lol.

Would've liked to bring home Mershon, buy what an inning.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

8-0. Let’s hope Khal can give us 7 and save the bullpen. He’s thrown 70 pitches through 5 innings.

[magrooder]

two more runs and hold'em we can run rule.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

A 6 pitch inning by Stephen. That’s how you keep the momentum. 76 pitches through 6 innings. He might give us 8 innings tonight.

[DawgFromOxford]

6 pitch 6 inning for Khal. This is fun

[BeardoMSU]

Khal is in his "dominant" phase right now, lol. Holy cow. Just an absolute clinic.

[Leroy Jenkins]

This is what I hoped Holcomb would've looked like. So glad we hit on so many of these portal guys. Most of these portal evals were good.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

two more runs and hold'em we can run rule.

We have a chance to do it.

[magrooder]

Chance stroked that down the line for a double 2 and 3 with one out

[EdwardDrayton]

Connor showin' some wheels tonight in the field and on the sacks.

[Ranchdawg]

My god I love destroying OM it's like free viagra

Truth I also enjoy it. Screw that better than me posture that ole miss loves to portray. The Grove the Flagship university bs and Hotty Toddy. Hahahahaha.

I?d like for the score to be 24-0.

[magrooder]

Downs with a weak strike out

[Saltydog]

Downs is a K machine. His K rate right up there with Jordan and Hines. . . . .

[Leroy Jenkins]

Run-ruling them may be doing their pen a favor. Lol

[murphdawg503]

Downs is a K machine. His K rate right up there with Jordan and Hines. . . . .

Tme to give someone other than Downs a shot at DH

[magrooder]

Run-ruling them may be doing their pen a favor. Lol

I sure would like tho.

[DawgFromOxford]

couldnt score anybody because of Downs miserable at bat

[Leroy Jenkins]

Is Kohler coming out of his funk?

[somebodyshotmypaw]

If Cupp is healthy, he needs to enter the game now at short.

[BeardoMSU]

Is Kohler coming out of his funk?

He is the FUNK.

[CaptainObvious]

I sure wish we could have got those 2 guys in. Bullpen is in great shape for both teams right now. So a 7 inning run-rule game would still keep us from using any bullpen though.

[magrooder]

Stephens is on it tonight

[DawgFromOxford]

8 pitch 7th inning. Khal brought his A game tonight, tip of the cap to the young man

[EdwardDrayton]

Eight pitches.

[Leroy Jenkins]

He is feeling it. And it's fun to watch.

[preachermatt83]

If Kohler starts hitting that would be huge. His last ab was a hard hit ball just at someone

[preachermatt83]

Larry struggling bad

[DawgFromOxford]

Amani Larry 0-5 tonight... quite the leadoff performance

[State82]

Stephens is on it tonight

Masterful.

[R2Dawg]

Stephens is dealing. Do you let him finish? I guess if he has a complete game shutout less than 110 maybe you let him but we can't have another pitching injury.

[BeardoMSU]

An amazing game from Khal! 9 ks. No walks! And efficient!

Let's go get that complete game!

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

What, 93 pitches now?

Do you let him finish it? I would. He deserved the CG shutout

[EdwardDrayton]

Khal 'Kamo Kong' bringin' it home.

[preachermatt83]

What year classification is khal Stephen?

[BeardoMSU]

Stephens is dealing. Do you let him finish? I guess if he has a complete game shutout less than 110 maybe you let him but we can't have another pitching injury.

You absolutely do. He's not struggling; straight dealin'

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

Stephens is dealing. Do you let him finish? I guess if he has a complete game shutout less than 110 maybe you let him but we can't have another pitching injury.

Yeah I tell him to throw strikes. They might hit a couple singles but they'll hit enough at people to get 3 outs pretty fast

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Since LSU, Stephen has allowed 3 runs in 27.1 innings. And note that his name is NOT Stephens.

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

Please tell me someone got a screen grab of them saying it's been 10 years since OM won a series as the score is 9-0 and the OM coach is sad that was perfection

[EdwardDrayton]

I think Shorty Mikey might cry.

[EdwardDrayton]

Dawg baseball is fun again.

[Saltydog]

Hardin coming in for Stephen. I'd let him come out considering the amount of pitches he'd thrown.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Hardin in to pitch the 9th. Hat tip to Stephen. He won Game 1, and really helped save the pen for Games 2 and 3.

[BeardoMSU]

I stand corrected.

[EdwardDrayton]

Tip of the cap Khal. Bona fide Friday night in the SEC.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Justin. Parker.

[State82]

That was a freaking incredible performance by Stephen.

[BeardoMSU]

That was a freaking incredible performance by Stephen.

One of the best in recent memory.

[CaptainObvious]

So Jordan has a single, a 2 run homer and also the hat trick -3 Ks. Good thing we put that big crooked number. Like I said earlier, our Offense is going to hang a bunch of zeros on the scoreboard with multiple weak at bats like the 1-4 and 7-9 tonight.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Hardin has gone from being timid, to dragging his nuts all over the field.

[CaptainObvious]

Hell of a game by Stephen! Great 6th inning!

[magrooder]

Shut'em out. Good game for the opener and great pitching performance by Stephen.

[DawgFromOxford]

Great win! Heck of game by Khal. Big time performance

[BeardoMSU]

Damn fine start to the weekend!

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Great win! Heck of game by Khal. Big time performance

He was never pressured. He was in command the entire game, kept his pitch count low, and never got in any trouble. He was flat cruising. It looked effortless. Such a great performance. He never had to make any big pitches because he kept his foot on their neck from the beginning.

[Commercecomet24]

Love Khal Stephen and this baseball team! Now go win tomorrow and Sunday and go to heck om!

[SaintDawg]

After last Saturday, I think these young men have grabbed another gear.

[Commercecomet24]

Dawg baseball is fun again.

Yes sir!!!

[ZedFedder]

Here is how you know Justin Parker can flat out coach... not only has he drastically improved our pitching staff, but they just keep getting better as the year goes on.

[EdwardDrayton]

dragging] Y'know, this was supposed to be my weekend off, but noooo. You got me out here draggin' your heavy ass through the burnin' desert with your dreadlocks stickin' out the back of my parachute. You gotta come down here with an attitude, actin' all big and bad...
[yells]
Captain Steven Hiller : and what the hell is that smell?

[BeardoMSU]

Here is how you know Justin Parker can flat out coach... not only has he drastically improved our pitching staff, but they just keep getting better as the year goes on.

Indeed

[Commercecomet24]

Here is how you know Justin Parker can flat out coach... not only has he drastically improved our pitching staff, but they just keep getting better as the year goes on.

Absolute one hundred freaking percent! Better and better and tougher and tougher! We need to make sure we keep the guy!

[DownwardDawg]

I caught the bottom of the 8th inning. That's it. Khal was flat dealing!!!!

[Saltydog]

Out of all the pitchers we've seen improve, the most improved is Hardin, IMO. His stuff is drastically better in both velo and movement.

[Commercecomet24]

Out of all the pitchers we've seen improve, the most improved is Hardin, IMO. His stuff is drastically better in both velo and movement.

You nailed it! I called him Mr BP last year because that's what he threw. Totally different pitcher this year. Nasty stuff and that cutter he's developed hitters aren't even picking it up.

[Todd4State]

That pitching performance was about as you can get.

Really clean game for us especially given the circumstances. We had one error but that's about it.

[BeardoMSU]

That pitching performance was about as you can get.

Error came bot9 with 2 outs up 8 zip, too, lol. Hell of a game all around.

[Todd4State]

You nailed it! I called him Mr BP last year because that's what he threw. Totally different pitcher this year. Nasty stuff and that cutter he's developed hitters aren't even picking it up.

His ERA is now under three and I believe he has a steak of 14 consecutive scoreless innings going now.

Makes me wonder if he is emerging as our closer?

We still have our entire bullpen basically available. Which will be needed on Sunday.

[Todd4State]

Error came bot9 with 2 outs up 8 zip, too, lol. Hell of a game all around.

Yeah! Wish the would have scored it a hit but the scorer unfortunately made the right decision.

[SPMT]

His ERA is now under three and I believe he has a steak of 14 consecutive scoreless innings going now.

Omaha team.

I?m I wrong, I?ll eat my crow
Unlike C34.

[Todd4State]

Omaha team.

I?m I wrong, I?ll eat my crow
Unlike C34.

We have work to do but I always felt like this team would settle in and play well once they figured out the pieces to the lineup.

[ZedFedder]

If we can save Nolan Stevens for Sunday, you have to feel pretty good.

[Todd4State]

If we can save Nolan Stevens for Sunday, you have to feel pretty good.

That's who I would start regardless. I'm done with the Nate Dohm rehab experiment during SEC games.

If we want to start him against Alcorn if he is healthy that's fine. I'm also fine Dohm just wants to shut it down.

Long term we're better off getting Stevens and Dotson the experience anyway.

[Commercecomet24]

We have work to do but I always felt like this team would settle in and play well once they figured out the pieces to the lineup.

Same here just took a little time. As you said though we have work to do. In the sec it never stops. Get better or die!

[The Federalist Engineer]

This was a fine win. Mechanical destruction of an opponent.

Stadium was dead empty by the 9th.

[Commercecomet24]

This was a fine win. Mechanical destruction of an opponent.

Stadium was dead empty by the 9th.

Yep loved hearing the maroon-white cheer echoing through their empty defeated stadium

[R2Dawg]

Since LSU, Stephen has allowed 3 runs in 27.1 innings. And note that his name is NOT Stephens.

Yeah I had Stephen but added the s after I saw so many post with the s. I haven't seen that back of his jersey long enough to tell.

[R2Dawg]

This was a fine win. Mechanical destruction of an opponent.

Stadium was dead empty by the 9th.

And that is what we do to OM. Streak continues today.

[msstate7]

Yep loved hearing the maroon-white cheer echoing through their empty defeated stadium

It's always cool to hear it in the opposing team's stadium (esp OM's), but I hate that cheer

[Pancho]

They started hauling fans away in the golf cart limo's after the 6th inning. glorious

[Coursesuper]

Absolute one hundred freaking percent! Better and better and tougher and tougher! We need to make sure we keep the guy!

It?s amazing that changing something as simple as the approach of how things are done can have such a huge effect.

[CaptainObvious]

It's always cool to hear it in the opposing team's stadium (esp OM's), but I hate that cheer

I hate that cringe worthy cheer so bad, I'd be okay with changing school colors to get rid of it! Aaaagggghhhh! Especially like last night where 2 guys were saying Marooooon! And 2 guys next to them were saying Whiiiiiiite! 😂😂😂😂



Somebody please change the long cheer to

Right Side--- GOOOOOOO!
Left Side----- STAAAAATE!


Or

Right side---REFS! ....... Or UMPS!

Left Side----SUCK!

[DownwardDawg]
