G1 vs The Barn

[Coach34]

late 9:15 start due to weather

Auburn with a man on B1

[Turfdawg67]

Is this softball?

[Coach34]

leadoff hit and Pico gets out of it. Headed T2 with Hines leading off

[Turfdawg67]

leadoff hit and Pico gets out of it. Headed T2 with Hines leading off

That's the nice way of saying we went down 1,2,3 in the first without actually saying it...

[Coach34]

That's the nice way of saying we went down 1,2,3 in the first without actually saying it...

We didnt- Reese had a hit

[Coach34]

K-K-K

Headed B2

[Coach34]

Pico comes back with the KKK himself

[CaptainObvious]

It's a lot more simple than some of these guys make it. Hell. Used to be 3 out of 10 was considered successful. Now 2.8 out of 10 is successful. But if you cannot hit a curveball, you aren't going to be successful 2.8 out of 10. It is the great equalizer! Those that can hit it, win it!

[Turfdawg67]

Pico comes back with the KKK himself

Hoods and all?? Weird.

[Coach34]

Dawgs strand 1- headed B3

[Coach34]

Sully HR 2-0 Dawgs

[Coach34]

Trout single keeps the inning alive but then a flyout. Headed B4- 2-0 Dawgs

[Saltydog]

Pico always seems to have one of those innings. Well, the 4th looks like that inning.

[Coach34]

Bunt hit to lead off the inning and all hell breaks loose. 4-2 Auburn headed T5

[Coach34]

9 pitch inning headed B5

[Coach34]

great response by Pico. 3 up 3 down. On to the 6th

[Coach34]

leadoff single for Reese

[Coach34]

Sully gets ****ed on a 3-2 pitch. Hines grounds out to 2B.

[Coach34]

Stallman K on another questionable pitch on the corner. Headed B6

[tcdog70]

Two shitty strike class . Could have been two on nobody out.

[parabrave]

Instead of playing Wheres Waldo we can start playing Where is Hunters Bat. When is the last time he even got on base and Lemon keeps him in the 5th spot.

[Coach34]

Double and then a single to get him in with two outs.

We have the shift on and Pico throws FB away the hitter goes with thru thru the 4 hole. Pico at 95 pitches

[Coach34]

Instead of playing Wheres Waldo we can start playing Where is Hunters Bat. When is the last time he even got on base and Lemon keeps him in the 5th spot.

Who you gonna put in the 5 hole? We dont have anybody

[Coach34]

Auburn gets 1- 5-2 T7

[HoopsDawg]

Isn't it amazing that we only have 2 high school signees in the starting 9. Hines and Chance. Horrible recruiting and development the past 4 years.

[msstate7]

Isn't it amazing that we only have 2 high school signees in the starting 9. Hines and Chance. Horrible recruiting and development the past 4 years.

It's almost over

[Coach34]

Auburn error opens door. 2 on with no outs

[parabrave]

Big hit by Powell

[Coach34]

Powell HR and we are tied

[msstate7]

It's almost over

Maybe not...

I would love for this team to find another gear to end this season

[Coach34]

Finally a ****ing clutch hit

[Coach34]

I thought it was a woman announcing- I think this is Cohen's trans kid doing the broadcast. He just called her Greg

[Coach34]

terrible AB Reeves

[HoopsDawg]

Maybe not...

I would love for this team to find another gear to end this season

If Lemonis had played this exact lineup all year, we would have at least 3-4 more wins. And that would have us firmly in the tournament.

[Coach34]

agree- wayyyyy too long to figure out who should do what. And I'm still not happy Stevens isnt in RF

[Coach34]

Damnnnnnn- Pico out there at 101 pitches

[HoopsDawg]

agree- wayyyyy too long to figure out who should do what. And I'm still not happy Stevens isnt in RF

Probably should be working Highfill in CF some too.

[Coach34]

Trying to steal outs again and it costs us a run-thats what gets you fired

[parabrave]

A real coach pitcher talk. Pitcher I got this Coach, Coach: No you don't!

[HoopsDawg]

Damnnnnnn- Pico out there at 101 pitches

And guess what happened.

[DawgFromOxford]

Damnnnnnn- Pico out there at 101 pitches

And look at that. Tried to steal outs with Pico and now we?re down 6-5. Feel like I?ve seen this before?

[HoopsDawg]

Trying to steal outs again and it costs us a run-thats what gets you fired

That was his 4th AB vs Pico.

[Coach34]

Pico walk and double gives Auburn the lead. Pitching mismanagement yet again. Headed T8

[Cowbeller]

And guess what happened.
I mean why be mad when it?s the same story every game. Incompetent coaching over and over

[Coach34]

Sully with the hat trick- that pitch should have been swung at

[Coach34]

Death/Taxes/Hines 0-2 in an AB

[Coach34]

Stallman with the Golden Sombrero tonight. I just dont understand

[HoopsDawg]

Could have let Stevens PH there...should have

[HoopsDawg]

Death/Taxes/Hines 0-2 in an AB

Hines is missing his hot zone pitches.

[Coach34]

Need to bat Stevens for Trout in the 9th

[HoopsDawg]

Stallman with the Golden Sombrero tonight. I just dont understand

Stevens on the pine hitting .326 with 4 homers. .423 OBP

[Coach34]

on to the 9th. Let's see what happens

Trout
Juco
Powell

[HoopsDawg]

on to the 9th. Let's see what happens

Trout
Juco
Powell

Wow. No PH for Chance. Wow.

[Coach34]

lol- Trout with a weakass groundball on the 1st pitch. I think Lemon is ready for this to be over too

[Coach34]

juco HBP- please hit for Powell against a Righty

[HoopsDawg]

lol- Trout with a weakass groundball on the 1st pitch. I think Lemon is ready for this to be over too

All these close games have to be managed correctly.

[Coach34]

wow- Highfill running for Juco

[Coach34]

How do you not bat Stevens for Powell?

[HoopsDawg]

juco HBP- please hit for Powell against a Righty

We don't PH for either righty vs the righty and we are down to our last out.

[Coach34]

Jesus. Powell groundball to 3rd erases Highfill

down to Frei

[HoopsDawg]

How do you not bat Stevens for Powell?

No idea.

[Coach34]

lol- and now O'Brien to fun for Powell. Holy ****

[Coach34]

Frei single- 1st and 2nd. Cmon Reeves

[Coach34]

****. I hate this staff. We should not be 6-13 in the SEC

[HoopsDawg]

The two LH batters reach. The 3 righties ground out. Stevens standing in the dugout.

[DawgFromOxford]

****. I hate this staff. We should not be 6-13 in the SEC
It?s almost like they want to get fired

[Todd4State]

****. I hate this staff. We should not be 6-13 in the SEC

If we just manage with common sense we're a regional host.

[Todd4State]

RPI now at 47 as I type this. One more loss this series and it's really hard to see there being any hope of getting into a regional as an at large.

This is not the week he needed if he wants to keep his job.

[HoopsDawg]

If we just manage with common sense we're a regional host.

Two 1 run losses this week with just brutal management decisions. Mind numbing, basic stuff.

[Todd4State]

Completely agree. Both games should have been fairly comfortable wins. It's asking too much of a pitcher who had Tommy John a couple of years ago to throw 115+ pitches and then trot him out there again in a hitter's ballpark. Especially with a fresh bullpen. Even down Hungate.

But I can even get on board with sending him back out with the 2 lefties coming up. He got them out. But then when the righty came up and he was past 110 pitches- bring on Davis. That’s an easy call. Easyyyyyyy. But no. We try to steal an out. It’s ridiculous

[Cooterpoot]

We can still win 8 more on this path to a regional lol

[Todd4State]

Exactly. We played with fire and actually came out OK- and then we KEPT playing with it. Doesn't make sense. You can't save bullpen when you have no margin for error.

[Todd4State]

We can still win 8 more on this path to a regional lol

Just to illustrate for others how bad this situation is- RPI down to 48 as I type this now- for us to win 8 that would basically mean that we go 8-3 in SEC play the rest of the season. That gets us to 14. I'm more and more confident that 13 won't get us in. Mizzou's RPI is awful and Kentucky's isn't high enough to really help.

[ZedFedder]

I am just ready for the season to be over and lemonis to be gone.

[maroonmania]

Wake up to see us with ANOTHErR 1 run loss. Shocker.

[Dawgface]

We can still win 8 more on this path to a regional lol

Greatest NC run in college baseball history!

[Pancho]

awful quiet on here. Wonder what Lemons is doing right now?

[StateDawg44]

13 shouldn?t get us in. Would be a wasted spot.

But, we won?t have to worry about it because we won?t make it to 13 regardless.

[Bdawg]

Getting his resume together? Packing?

[TNDawg35]

13 shouldn?t get us in. Would be a wasted spot.

But, we won?t have to worry about it because we won?t make it to 13 regardless.

There is no way we should get in with 13 wins. Who have we beat? Southern Miss one game/Bama a series/OK 1 game... We have beat no one with a pulse.

[Todd4State]

But, we won?t have to worry about it because we won?t make it to 13 regardless.

Historically it's not uncommon for a 13 win SEC team to make it in. With our metrics it won't and shouldn't happen.

It goes back to wasting games against people like Troy because you can't figure out roles on your staff- and still haven't really.

[Pancho]

Lemons got anyone who can hit to play 1B tonight? asking for a fren

[Todd4State]

There is no way we should get in with 13 wins. Who have we beat? Southern Miss one game/Bama a series/OK 1 game... We have beat no one with a pulse.

Yeah. It's very obviously reflected in our lack of Q1 wins. That is what us essentially going to put us out.

[StateDawg44]

I realize that but like TNDawg said, we havent done anything to deserve any sort of nod of approval other than sucking which was my point.

[Coach34]

We win this series and we will be back in the field of 64 projections.

13 gets us in. 14 and we are easily in
