Best line-up vs RHP we can put on the field

[Thick]

This mfer is blacked out in Madison!!! Wtf?!

[cheewgumm]

on ESPN states "vent has not started yet".

Anyone else getting that?

[mparkerfd20]

ESPN ****s up again

[Activated Alpha]

Sigh always a Mississippi State sport

[cheewgumm]

Ha

Someone probably has not plugged something in, in the booth.

[Coach34]

it on SEC Network

[Coach34]

Great job Stallllllll

[Coach34]

Mac is pretty amped up tonight

[Coach34]

Damnnnnnnnn 99. Sit down bitch!!!

[cheewgumm]

all our home games should be at NIGHT

[Coach34]

We have our catcher

[Thick]

Yes we do! I have recovered from a pre game heart attack and stroke.

[Coach34]

Good recovery Mac

[EdwardDrayton]

Settling in with a Woodford Reserve on this fine Friday night. We got this.

[Coach34]

Woodcockkkkkkkkkkkkk

[EdwardDrayton]

Now that's what I call a Ryder moving truck.

[Coach34]

Settling in with a Woodford Reserve on this fine Friday night. We got this.

I'm hanging with Tito as usual

[Coach34]

34 has worked his ass off to become a solid guy at 2B

[Coach34]

Great inning Mac. 4-1 B4

[State82]

Settling in with a Woodford Reserve on this fine Friday night. We got this.

Russell's Reserve 10 year for me.

[mparkerfd20]

Complete and utter mother****ing bullshit!!!!!

[EdwardDrayton]

Now that is just plain 17ed up!!!!

[Activated Alpha]

Had a feeling he was going to strikeout but didn?t expect to strikeout on a weird obscure technicality

[Activated Alpha]

And not good for McPherson. Please God just let it be precaution

[Coach34]

Holy shit- we are M-State

[SilentSteel16]

Landon Sims vibes with him shaking his hand / elbow like that

[msstate7]

Holy shit- we are M-State

Listening to music, what they thinking?

[maroonmania]

Had a feeling he was going to strikeout but didn?t expect to strikeout on a weird obscure technicality

I had audio off. Did they call a 3rd strike for delay of game? What the heck happened with McPherson?

[R2Dawg]

[QUOTE=SilentSteel16;1701281]Landon Sims vibes with him shaking his hand / elbow like that[/QUOTE

He hurt it last inning. He was shaking his hand after a strikeout. Not good.

[Coach34]

C'mon Sumbitch- keep your good year going

[msstate7]

[QUOTE=SilentSteel16;1701281]Landon Sims vibes with him shaking his hand / elbow like that[/QUOTE

He hurt it last inning. He was shaking his hand after a strikeout. Not good.

Did he lose velocity after it?

[EdwardDrayton]

Just pray it's not a UCL.

[maroonmania]

Had a feeling he was going to strikeout but didn?t expect to strikeout on a weird obscure technicality

What exactly happened?

[State82]

Typical MSU luck. Damn.

[Thick]

McPhearson shuck his arm and kind of winced in the inning before….seriously. The exact thing he did while warming he did in the previous inning.

[maroonmania]

Crap, and Gleason can't find the strike zone.

[mckeen]

What did BOC think, coming in here with absolutely ZERO relief pitching????

[EdwardDrayton]

WTF

[maroonmania]

We are just going to freaking give the game away!

[Activated Alpha]

What exactly happened?

Reece was in the batter's box and was looking at the pitcher, but had his bat in his right hand pointing up and not locked in with both hands. Think they said he has to be read to swing within 8 seconds or something like that, kids were screaming

[HoopsDawg]

Somebody like a Parker Rhodes or Charlie Foster must step up.

[Activated Alpha]

Yeah we aren't going far with this bullpen. A lot of talent for sure, but no cajones in the relief section. That won't win a lot of games let alone get us to Omaha

[maroonmania]

Now we've put 2 runners on where the batter swung and they say the ball hit the hands! Geez I hate MSU sports.

[Coach34]

Good job Sumbitch!!!

[EdwardDrayton]

Gleason cleans up his own mess.

[maroonmania]

What a Houdini act! Got out of it with no runs given up. Amazing.

[Activated Alpha]

Yeah we aren't going far with this bullpen. A lot of talent for sure, but no cajones in the relief section. That won't win a lot of games let alone get us to Omaha

Outside of Gleason apparently. Good job kid, damn

[Coach34]

This board gave Lemon no quarter in 2022 for the pitching injuries. It's win or you suck. No excuses

[Coach34]

Man I love Seton Hall. He is the guy we need behind the plate

[maroonmania]

Never seen Gleason have this much trouble throwing strikes. That's usually the one thing he does.

[Activated Alpha]

We can get to two strikes, but we just cannot find the strikeout pitch

[mckeen]

Actually, NO TALENT

[maroonmania]

We can get to two strikes, but we just cannot find the strikeout pitch

Yea, and that last one was a hanger right in the heart of the plate.

[Coach34]

Actually, NO TALENT

lol- dude- wtf? We have like 18 draft picks on our team right now

[maroonmania]

If we've lost McPherson then we are going to struggle mightily in the SEC. Just not enough frontline pitching.

[EdwardDrayton]

Lewski saves a run.

[EdwardDrayton]

We have a catcher.

[HoopsDawg]

We have our catcher. That?s a big hole filled.

[HoopsDawg]

If we've lost McPherson then we are going to struggle mightily in the SEC. Just not enough frontline pitching.

We would probably have to move Ben Davis to starter. I just dont know.

[EdwardDrayton]

Attaway Citadel. And Lewski doin' work.

[maroonmania]

Escaped again. Crazy.

[SaintDawg]

That… is good baseball, gents. Matter of fact, it’s great baseball. That. Was. Clutch.

[mckeen]

This pitching staff has to be named "luckiest , " if there is such an award. Pretty much luck, they are dodging bullets.
BOC, what were you thinking?

[State82]

BOC, what were you thinking?

Yeah, losing our Friday guy is really lucky.

[EdwardDrayton]

Tide's Tyler Fay throws a 132-pitch individual no-hitter against Florida, their first individual no-hitter since 1942.

[maroonmania]

This vaunted offense just goes to sleep at times. Vandy pitching is not that good. Need to take some pressure off our relievers.

[Thick]

The home plate ump’s strike zone is complete SHIT!!!

[maroonmania]

Walks, walks, walks. Get somebody else in there.

[Thick]

Maddox Webb refuses to throw a strike……our bullpen is a bunch of overthrowing power guys that don’t know how to pitch!!!

[EdwardDrayton]

We are seeing a very inconsistent zone in college baseball in general. Don't think we've seen this kind of inconsistency to this extent before.

[Coursesuper]

We would probably have to move Ben Davis to starter. I just dont know.

I hope not.

[maroonmania]

We are seeing a very inconsistent zone in college baseball in general. Don't think we've seen this kind of inconsistency to this extent before.

Umpire is not the problem for Webb. He is either shoulder high or in the dirt.

[EdwardDrayton]

I hope not.

^^^^^

[maroonmania]

I hope not.

Not a lot of other options. Foster being a total mess is really hurting us right now.

[Coach34]

My Boy Davis!!!! Attaboy

[maroonmania]

Great job Davis!!

[EdwardDrayton]

Munchkin Korbin trying in vain.

[Coach34]

I hope not.

Right now- it has to be him or Sumbitch. Foster hasnt got it together and Burns isnt there yet.

[HoopsDawg]

My Boy Davis!!!! Attaboy

He hit 99

[EdwardDrayton]

Speedystache ready to run. *****

[maroonmania]

Offense isn't helping the situation at all.

[Coursesuper]

Right now- it has to be him or Sumbitch. Foster hasnt got it together and Burns isnt there yet.

Has to Sumbitch or Miller. Have to keep Davis in the backend.

[Activated Alpha]

This vaunted offense getting tamed against SEC pitching and not even the best SEC pitching. Need our arms to carry us the rest of the way

[parabrave]

Dam Ace it's ok to get on base.

[Activated Alpha]

Yeah 4 runs might not be enough. This is turning into a nail biter

[mparkerfd20]

If this dumbass ump knew what a strike was we'd be out of this inning with no runs. He sucks donkeys after every game.

[Coursesuper]

That?s horseshat. That guy was put 2 pitches before that.

[maroonmania]

Come on offense, DO SOMETHING!

[EdwardDrayton]

OK let's plate a couple and seal the deal.

[Quaoarsking]

Who is sumbitch again, and why is that his nickname?

[BeardoMSU]

If Ben is our closer, we don't have a closer.

[HoopsDawg]

Has to Sumbitch or Miller. Have to keep Davis in the backend.

lol, no.

[BeardoMSU]

Who is sumbitch again, and why is that his nickname?

He ****ed someone's ex, and they're still very upset about it...*******

[Coursesuper]

lol, no.
You have a lot to learn about baseball.

[parabrave]

So can Davis close it out?

[Coach34]

Who is sumbitch again, and why is that his nickname?

Jack Gleason- shirley you can figure out why?

[Activated Alpha]

Yikes. This offense scares me and not in a good way

[maroonmania]

Offense has done absolutely nothing since the Woodson HR. The offense has not looked great so far in the SEC.

[EdwardDrayton]

If Ben is our closer, we don't have a closer.

It seems we're trying to figure WHERE he fits. Not as a starter and not as a closer. So mid relief is all that's left.

[Coach34]

Yikes. This offense scares me and not in a good way

Offense has disappointed tonight

[maroonmania]

Struck him out twice!!

[Coach34]

Boom- winnnnnnahhhhhhh

[maroonmania]

Offense has disappointed tonight

Disappointed in 3 of 4 SEC games so far.

[Coursesuper]

What a change up

[Coach34]

Davis was money

[EdwardDrayton]

Jack Gleason- shirley you can figure out why?

He's just not living up to the billing quite yet is all.

[parabrave]

Way to man up Davis.

[Coach34]

Disappointed in 3 of 4 SEC games so far.

agree

[Quaoarsking]

Jack Gleason- shirley you can figure out why?

I assume it's because you like him and the nickname is ironic?

[Activated Alpha]

Offense has disappointed tonight

Yeah true. 8 hits with 4 runs is better than nothing, but we can't expect to win many SEC games with that type of production. At least the boys found a way to win so I can't be too hard on them

[maroonmania]

Way to man up Davis.

Exactly why we don't need Davis pitching when we are up 7-0. Still can't believe how dumb that was.

[SaintDawg]

That was big boy baseball, gents. These kids got some sand to them. I like it!

[EdwardDrayton]

We get the W in G1. Ticolinkus gives us a leg up in G2. Good start to the weekend.

[maroonmania]

Only bad part about tonight is how much of our bullpen we had to use up because of losing McPherson AND because the offense didn't do more.

[Coach34]

I assume it's because you like him and the nickname is ironic?

I meannnn- how do you have a guy named Jack Gleason and dont call him Sumbitch? Makes no sense to me

Like having a guy named Dakota and calling him Dak

[GolfDawg]

Ben Davis looked the part tonight. Good development. Hope McPherson is ok.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Good win but given the circumstances, who really cares. Need to know about mcP health

[parabrave]

BOK said McPherson stiffend up and they will check him out tom.

[parabrave]

I meannnn- how do you have a guy named Jack Gleason and dont call him Sumbitch? Makes no sense to me

Like having a guy named Dakota and calling him Dak

Well at least you not calling him Alice or moonbeam.

[Todd4State]

This was a really good win because we found a way to win and worked out of multiple jams.
I thought we managed the bullpen much better tonight than any game last week. It's tough when you're starting pitcher goes down and you have five innings to figure out all of a sudden.

McPherson getting hurt sucks but Ben Davis stepped up tonight and got us the win!

[DawgFromOxford]

Gutsy win given the circumstances. The wheels could?ve fallen off multiple times but love the mental resolve of the team. Need our offense to get going again.

[HoopsDawg]

Agree. Good pen management tonight unlike last Friday.

[archdog]

It everyone is 43 years or older for the reference. I just am barely old enough to know understand the reference.

[AlSwearengen]

I believe this is the first time that Gleason hasn’t pitched well, but he had to go into the game in a wonky situation and probably didn’t get to go thru his normal routine. Probably got him out of his comfort zone but that is a good thing and a learning experience as long as we don’t lose. It was good to see Davis pitch the way that we were expecting coming into the season.

[Thick]

I know Gleason’s dad. He’s got a great since of humor…..funny as hell! He would totally get “Sumbitch” as his son’s nickname. His dad had pictures taken of himself with a guitar like posing like a musician, autograph them, frame them, and would put them up in bars and/or restaurants that allowed it. I think he had one at Tico’s for years, and they never caught on. There are a few in Nashville too.

Webb didn't really look right either. A lot of his pitches were sailing high, and I mean like head high.

That's pretty funny.

[Turfdawg67]

A lot of 17'n bitchin for a 17-4 team. Lord help us if we get no hit like UF.
