Game 3: Versus the Johnnies

[StarkVegasSteve]

Disaster avoided. Would love to get that a couple here and be able to try to go Schuelke next inning

[maroonmania]

Well done. that is why you keep attacking the zone.
Hujsak should have gotten to that one.

Yea, not sure why he was so deep but I thought off the bat it was an out.

[archdog]

Alright. Although it may be better for us to get off the field quickly the top of this inning, but if we can score 2 here I will take it.
I feel like if Cam went right back out there he will close this out. If he has to wait 20 minutes, it may be an issue.

[archdog]

Jordan bringing the dramatics. whew

It did read pretty hot coming off the bat.
Nice catch Hayes, Don't ever 17n do it again.

[StarkVegasSteve]

Alright. Although it may be better for us to get off the field quickly the top of this inning, but if we can score 2 here I will take it.
I feel like if Cam went right back out there he will close this out. If he has to wait 20 minutes, it may be an issue.

Definitely something to that but at the same time, I would feel a lot better at 11-5 or 12-5 than 10-5

[archdog]

We should be really good hitting off of lefties by now.

[HoopsDawg]

Alright. Although it may be better for us to get off the field quickly the top of this inning, but if we can score 2 here I will take it.

I wouldn't be surprised if we bring in Dohm to close**

Cam is our rubber arm guy. He can finish it if we want him to.

[archdog]

Definitely something to that but at the same time, I would feel a lot better at 11-5 or 12-5 than 10-5

Absolutely. You only get 27 outs to score runs. Why give up 3 of them?
But you know what I am saying. Sometimes you just want your pitcher to keep going.

[HoopsDawg]

Alright, if we get 3 more outs, it's up to Pico. He has struggled with pitch counts. We need him to give us 6. I have to think it's on Pico and Dohm tonight. Really need to win without throwing Davis.

[archdog]

I feel like if this guy doesn't freeze Powell, he drills one.

[maroonmania]

Wish we would have just bunted Powell. Wasted out.

[archdog]

Larry. Let's get a single here.

[archdog]

Wish we would have just bunted Powell. Wasted out.

Powell has some pop.
This guy is throwing everything with break. Just wait on it.

[Dawgology]

Assuming we hold on to win this one and IF we beat Virginia tonight who would we have available to pitch Monday?

[archdog]

Mersh, get you a double here sir.
You have to send Larry on the first pitch. Hopefully a right hander comes in.

[archdog]

Assuming we hold on to win this one and IF we beat Virginia tonight who would we have available to pitch Monday?

Did that guy who hit the Um punter in that GIF even get flagged? I mean the guy is a runner until he boots it.

[archdog]

So, we don't pitch run for Larry to get second base?

[archdog]

Alright. That will work. Wonder if they just walk Mersh here?

[Quaoarsking]

Arkansas down 4-0 to SEMO

[archdog]

Good play by Larry not advancing in front of that. Could have given that guy a play.

[archdog]

Jordan is seeing the ball better right now.
Time for lift off.

[maroonmania]

Well, that ought to do it!

[archdog]

Called it. Again. 2 for 2 on his last two homers.

[Dawgology]

Did that guy who hit the Um punter in that GIF even get flagged? I mean the guy is a runner until he boots it.

Haha! I’m not sure. But it’s a thing of beauty.

[DawgFromOxford]

DAKOTA JORDAN!!! Welcome back

[EdwardDrayton]

LOL!! That ball cover is lying in the outfield somewhere!!!

[mparkerfd20]

Good God he crushed that!!! Is it safe to say the slump might be over?

[archdog]

Damn. He hit that into the woods.

[Brobi-wan]

Let Cam have it and ride on to W town

[StarkVegasSteve]

That was pimped. May be a chance to sit some of our starters here to get them a bit of extra rest. Hell we play again in about 2 hours.

[DEDawg]

Not to count chickens before they hatch, but Lemon and Parker absolutely made the right call putting in Cam.

[archdog]

That ball went 500. Center field is 400 and that thing went another 120 feet easily.

[DawgFromOxford]

Alright Cam close this thing out

[GolfDawg]

Great job by the bats today! We haven?t score 10 since the Friday game against Bama. Gotta keep the bats hot for the next two games

[maroonmania]

Yea, that one went out there in Wes Rea territory from 2013.

[SilentSteel16]

That was pimped. May be a chance to sit some of our starters here to get them a bit of extra rest. Hell we play again in about 2 hours.

No you don?t pull your starters

[StarkVegasSteve]

Need a quick 3 here and get off our feet.

[mparkerfd20]

463 officially. I would've thought even more

[Brobi-wan]

No you don?t pull your starters

Except Larry lol

[SilentSteel16]

Dude 2B has been a revolving door all year long. If you pull all your starters and they tie it up you are toast. Not football can?t put starters back in position

[EdwardDrayton]

Mershon

[Brobi-wan]

Dude 2B has been a revolving door all year long. If you pull all your starters and they tie it up you are toast. Not football can?t put starters back in position

Tis a joke. Not a cock. Don’t take it so hard.

[DawgFromOxford]

Mershon with the smooth grab. Could watch that play on repeat

[maroonmania]

Good job Dogs! Still have a MAJOR uphill battle but we live to fight on.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Cam Scheulke- you stud

[Commercecomet24]

Done what we had to do today. Auger, scheulke and the hitters. If dj stays hot we have a chance. Nut cuttin time.

[Commercecomet24]

Cam Scheulke- you stud

He saved some arms for us for sure!

[starkvegasdawg]

One down. Two more to go. Ark down 4-0 right now. We may well be playing to host a super.

[EdwardDrayton]

There's the first check mark just like we expected. A little rest and saddle up for tonight. We got this.

[msstate7]

What's first pitch time?

[SilentSteel16]

Tis a joke. Not a cock. Don?t take it so hard.

Just par for the course with some of these comments. Some people wanting to pitch Loo lefty don?t understand it is a whole body motion for 105 pitches. Not just an arm fatigue issue. But yeah, cute attempt at being big bad internet type though.

[Brobi-wan]

One down. Two more to go. Ark down 4-0 right now. We may well be playing to host a super.

Dave doing Dave things so far.

[DawgFromOxford]

Great effort in game 1. Just find a way to win game 2 tonight to put the pressure on UVA tomorrow

[chef dixon]

40 wins

[SilentSteel16]

I believe it is 5pm CST.

[Brobi-wan]

Just par for the course with some of these comments. Some people wanting to pitch Loo lefty don?t understand it is a whole body motion for 105 pitches. Not just an arm fatigue issue. But yeah, cute attempt at being big bad internet type though.

Nobody was suggesting moving the entire roster to the bench. We’ve all been watching all year long and know Nate Chester comes in a lot.

[State82]

Cam Scheulke- you stud

Yep. Well done Cam. Very well done.

[Cooterpoot]

With Arky losing, that's got to give us a boost. We host if we win (right now). Shut us all up guys! Go get it done so you can tell all of MB guys to suck it!

[SilentSteel16]

Cam Scheulke- you stud

Extending him may have given us a good shot to pull this off. Great job by him for sure.

[Brobi-wan]

Lemo gets a SR host site come Monday and we will absolutely have him for 2 more despite whatever may happen next year.

[KOdawg1]

Well we gave ourselves a shot. That's all we could ask for.

Gonna come down to whether we hit it or not.

[Cooterpoot]

Lemo gets a SR host site come Monday and we will absolutely have him for 2 more despite whatever may happen next year.

But we can't complain about that.

[Brobi-wan]

But we can't complain about that.

Agreed. Most important thing is winning. Play the games and let the chips fall where they may. I want Lemo to succeed as that means we succeed. Hail State!

[Offshore Dawg]

some of you need to take the rest of the day off from posting, you have looked like a bunch of 17ing idiots.

[Cooterpoot]

We'll have to play the officiating again now. The ACC has the fix in. We'll need to score at least 7 or 8 I imagine.

[Todd4State]

We used the whole field and look what happened!!!!

It's amazing what happens when you play fundamental baseball and not hero selfish baseball.

[Todd4State]

Lemo gets a SR host site come Monday and we will absolutely have him for 2 more despite whatever may happen next year.

I bet if we have a bad year next year we move on regardless of what happens this year.

Lot of things left to be determined.

[AROB44]

The ACC has the fix in.

That's BS......what's wrong with just saying Va is a very good team.

[Brobi-wan]

We’re going to need archdog calling some more homers tonight.

[DownwardDawg]

Extending him may have given us a good shot to pull this off. Great job by him for sure.

Absolutely. Surprised me big time!!!
This is really what we needed today.

[Apoplectic]

We used the whole field and look what happened!!!!

It's amazing what happens when you play fundamental baseball and not hero selfish baseball.

it?s been so obvious too. hitting only for the clicks. this last game had some signs of team effort. the coaches know it too which is why you sit guys that are 1 for 50

[CaptainObvious]

Yes. This year has been quite the turnaround with a lot of the same pieces not even playing up to their abilities. I'll still be pissed if Arkansas loses and Last nights blown game costs State a chance to host a Super! Damn pissed!

[Brobi-wan]

The ACC has the fix in.

That's BS......what's wrong with just saying Va is a very good team.

Agree. They’re a solid lineup. With some decent pitching. Best hope is to get into the BP early tonight.

[mparkerfd20]

The ACC has the fix in.

That's BS......what's wrong with just saying Va is a very good team.

Because they had a shit ton of help yesterday and to argue otherwise is extremely foolish.

[DEDawg]

Because they had a shit ton of help yesterday and to argue otherwise is extremely foolish.

Calls are missed, strike zones widen then tighten. It isn?t a conspiracy and the first 3 innings we had a few calls go our way that would have me throwing stuff at the TV if I was a Virginia fan

[CaptainObvious]

Our middle infielders have been atrocious against Virginia.

[CaptainObvious]

Their potent offense has scored 1 run on Pico. The defense behind him gave up the other 2. Luckily got out of that messed up play.
