[parabrave]

How is Raymond??

[parabrave]

Black Jerseys, we're screwed**

[Coach34]

Need to run the pitch count- Johnny Reb supposedly limited to 80 pitches today

[parabrave]

And Teel with a leadoff double.

[parabrave]

Welcome back Ace and Teel. 2-0.

[parabrave]

Need to run the pitch count- Johnny Reb supposedly limited to 80 pitches today

Or we can knock him out early.

[EdwardDrayton]

1 and a 2 and a BOOM!

[Coach34]

Or just keep hitting HR's

[Tater]

This will be a first to 20 type of day at the park. Crooked numbers every inning to feel comfortable.

[Bdawg]

Welcome back Ace and Teel. 2-0.

Yes!! Get hot!

[Bdawg]

This will be a first to 20 type of day at the park. Crooked numbers every inning to feel comfortable.

Just no free bases for the Rebs and we should be fine

[Leroy Jenkins]

Slump-buster.

[HoopsDawg]

Vandy sweeps Tennessee

[House33]

I hate walks…..

[R2Dawg]

Vandy sweeps Tennessee

Aub losing 2 to Bama, MSU rising to the top. Get the sweep today.

[parabrave]

Come on Duke just get out of this inning.

[parabrave]

Jeez,

[CaptainObvious]

Just no free bases for the Rebs and we should be fine

From your mouth to O?Connor?s ears! Make the change now.

[R2Dawg]

We need Stone to show up like now.

[maroonmania]

Come on Duke just get out of this inning.

Walks will kill you against OM. They have already scored off of one single due to a walk and wild pitch.

[parabrave]

Duke Balled up there. That adverted disaster, We need to go on a hit parade tiday.

[EdwardDrayton]

Well hope Stone got that $hit out of his system.

[Saltydog]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/HEmdUBqbQAAYNKt?format=jpg&name=900x900

Bad 1st for Duke. Not sharp at all but he gets out of it. This could be a softball type score today.

[HoopsDawg]

Townsend is nasty.

[maroonmania]

Well, wasted that double. Townsend looking much sharper.

[Bdawg]

Does OM have a lefty to follow their starter? I want Milewski back out there

[Bdawg]

Good job Duke. Work ahead. No walk…. No trouble.

[maroonmania]

Our hitters aren't tracking this guy's breaking ball at all. We are just frozen with it.

[CaptainObvious]

It?s not that they cannot hit the curve ball. It?s that they just don?t swing at it. It?s kind of embarrassing when they just stand there and watch the guy drop it in on then with no attempt to just foul it off if you cannot square it up.

Looks like pitching will have to win this one!

The batters are up there guessing again. They could go up there without a bat and gave the same success as watching the strikes.

[EdwardDrayton]

Does OM have a lefty to follow their starter? I want Milewski back out there

I do too but it's a long season on a catcher's knees. And he has back issues to go with it.

[Coursesuper]

Our hitters aren't tracking this guy's breaking ball at all. We are just frozen with it.
Baseball is hard.

[maroonmania]

Goodness, that strikeout to Sullivan was well outside.

[Activated Alpha]

This ump wants the racists to win today. Ball was 6 inches off the plate and Stone didn't get the same strike call

[Saltydog]

Unless Townsend hits a limited pitch count it doesn't look like we're going to get him outta the game anytime soon. He's cruising and that 12/6 hammer has us looking bad. Through 3 innings they don't have anyone tossing so. . . . . .

[Bdawg]

Townsend is pretty tough. Ace fooled again on that outside change up. But others are being fooled right now too

[maroonmania]

Stone is walking people. No walks from Townsend.

[parabrave]

So who do we have in the pen/

[parabrave]

Unless Townsend hits a limited pitch count it doesn't look like we're going to get him outta the game anytime soon. He's cruising and that 12/6 hammer has us looking bad. Through 3 innings they don't have anyone tossing so. . . . . .

75 is his limit according to Jay.

[Activated Alpha]

Stone is walking people. No walks from Townsend.

I ain't faulting Stone when the ump squeezes him and gives Townsend the next zip code for a strike zone

[parabrave]

Good TO Raymond.

[maroonmania]

And another walk. :(

[EdwardDrayton]

17ing walks. <sigh>

[maroonmania]

17ing walks. <sigh>

Yep, we've set them up for a big inning.

[R2Dawg]

Giving game away

[parabrave]

Dam Ace stay awake. Jay said Ace got a late break on the ball,

[Activated Alpha]

Like that pitch, that pitch was called a strike for Townsend. He's making Stone send it right down the middle in order for it to be called a strike. Bullshit ump

[maroonmania]

Man, Raymond has a lot of trouble just catching the ball.

[Activated Alpha]

Good job Stone. Now let's **** Townsend up

[EdwardDrayton]

Kudos to Duke for cleaning up his own $hitpile.

[House33]

Houdini….

[trob115]

Raymond is trashhh receiving the ball. Why is millewski not playing?

[Coursesuper]

Duke is getting squeezed some, he?s missing high but they aren?t giving him the corner.

[Bdawg]

Dam Ace stay awake. Jay said Ace got a late break on the ball,

Thought he could have gotten dirty twice over there for a ball but guess not.

[parabrave]

Whats more deflating? Leaving bases loaded or walking the bases loaded,

[Thick]

Very big win on getting out of that bases loaded jam, now follow it up with some runs would be back breaking for the Rebs!

[Coursesuper]

Raymond is trashhh receiving the ball. Why is millewski not playing?

Because maybe we want a catcher to semi healthy.

[Bdawg]

Duke is getting squeezed some, he?s missing high but they aren?t giving him the corner.

Nope. He had a first pitch off speed pitch that was definitely a strike not called.

[EdwardDrayton]

Walking. Every time.

[Bdawg]

Kudos to Duke for cleaning up his own $hitpile.

It was really starting to stink

[Bdawg]

Maybe we should start looking for that breaker

[Activated Alpha]

Townsend got a high strike call in which Stone never got. Bullshit ump

[parabrave]

Dam we turned into the fighting Cerranos, except for Parker.

[Coursesuper]

Nope. He had a first pitch off speed pitch that was definitely a strike not called.

That?s what getting squeezed is, literally the definition.

[Bdawg]

Parker looking for that curve!!!

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Parker is a damn man

[BrunswickDawg]

Boom!

[R2Dawg]

Townsend got a high strike call in which Stone never got. Bullshit ump

Agree Duke been squeezed many times while OM guy gets benefit.

[R2Dawg]

Parker is a damn man

Parker is one of the next stars on this team.

[Bdawg]

That?s what getting squeezed is, literally the definition.

No shit. Was just saying that pitch in particular really wasn’t even close to being a ball.

[BrunswickDawg]

Parker is one of the next stars on this team.
I'm pretty sure he's a current star. If he doesn't hit a freshman wall he will be SEC Freshman of the year - maybe National

[The Federalist Engineer]

Parker might become MSUs first Golden Spikes. Odd that MSU doesn't have one. Even Rooker finished 2nd or 3rd.

Not this year, but in his career

[parabrave]

Good Challenge.

[Quaoarsking]

Parker might become MSUs first Golden Spikes. Odd that MSU doesn't have one. Even Rooker finished 2nd or 3rd.

Will Clark won it in 1985.

Will Clark says hi

[parabrave]

Well shi% Raymond, that makes up for scr3ewup. Seems we got their timing down

[parabrave]

Would Lemon have challenged that play at 1st??

[EdwardDrayton]

Because maybe we want a catcher to semi healthy.

^^^^^

[Saltydog]

Yeah, hard to believe Raffy didn't win it in '84. He hit .415, 29 dingers and 94 RBI's.

[Coursesuper]

Would Lemon have challenged that play at 1st??

Who cares he?s gone.

[maroonmania]

Who cares he?s gone.

I sure C34 cares.

[Tater]

Anyone wanna say it was over management on our catcher rotation this weekend?

[Tater]

Now let's find a dud Sunday arm and step on their throat. Let them know who Daddy is

[parabrave]

Hey on a HR Day we manufacture a run the old fashioned way.

[Activated Alpha]

We seriously suck at stealing bases. Like the worst I have ever seen us

[Leroy Jenkins]

40 of 50. 80%

[parabrave]

I sure C34 cares.

Yor see Marine in the Army we call that a sublimely message!

[DawgFromOxford]

We seriously suck at stealing bases. Like the worst I have ever seen us

Whoever coaches the timing is bad at it. We look late on every steal

[parabrave]

Come on Duke just throw strikes. There you go trust your defense

[maroonmania]

Duke all over the place right now.

[Activated Alpha]

Good job Stone with dealing with a shitty ump. Time to take a rest. Need someone warming up in the pen

[maroonmania]

Way to pull it together Duke!

[Coursesuper]

Duke all over the place right now.

I feel like its pretty smart to pitch around the only guy in their lineup that?s really legit. If he walks it?s okay, just don?t give guy anything to drive.

[Bdawg]

Way to pull it together Duke!

Not Duke’s best day (partially because of the ump), but he’s showing some “stones” to get through it!

[maroonmania]

OM returning the favor and giving us some walks.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Belt to ass so far.

[maroonmania]

Boy, really wish Frei could have gotten the bunt down now.

[DawgFromOxford]

I hope we never have to rely on Frei to get a bunt down to win a game. I don?t think he?s ever put a successful bunt down

[Quaoarsking]

Is anyone else tired of hearing the story every game about how they pronounce their names differently?

[maroonmania]

I would rather him PH for Frei with Wyers and left Parker in the game.

[Leroy Jenkins]

They have to say it for the other fanbases watching.

[parabrave]

Wow Mil is in for Raymond?

[Bdawg]

This ump sucks. Struck him out twice

[Leroy Jenkins]

I’ve always wondered what type of person would want to be an ump. That’s a heeelll no for me.

[maroonmania]

Big AB here for Duke.

[maroonmania]

Oh boy, things could get interesting here.

[HoopsDawg]

Shocking that we allowed Stone to face Decker.

[Saltydog]

Thought Duke was gonna get outta the 6th but not looking like it. Dangerous situation here with Judd Uterus. He's the kinda guy that can make this game interesting with one swing of the bat. If it's Davis, I'm officially nervous.

[maroonmania]

OM HR hitter coming up now. Gotta keep him in the yard.

[parabrave]

Might've waited 2 batters too late. Ok Davis let's see what you can do.

[Activated Alpha]

Who do we go with?

[Bdawg]

Think we should have pulled Duke a batter earlier. Come on Davis!

[Activated Alpha]

Please be good Ben Davis

[Leroy Jenkins]

Walking him isn’t the worst thing.

[parabrave]

Good job Davis.

[Bdawg]

Whew!!!! Good job

[CaptainObvious]

Welp. Ole Miss has left The town of Flora on the bases this weekend. Thank them!

[Tater]

Say it with me folks.

Oh *clap* ver *clap* man *clap* aged *clap*

Oak showing off now. Coming back to Davis in that high leverage situation and rewarded.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Ole Miss has stranded a bunch today.

[Tater]

Welp. Ole Miss has left The town of Flora on the bases this weekend. Thank them!

Thanks Bulldogs! Great pitching performances help Ole Miss set Egg Bowl records in the putrid performance for men stranded on base.

[Saltydog]

C'mon Ace. Make it hurt!

[Leroy Jenkins]

That outside pitch for Reese and Sullivan. One guy thinks its in the other batters box and one guy thinks its under his hands.

[Bdawg]

Sully looks 4 feet off the plate. Rough day

[Saltydog]

Sully with yet another K. He's patient to a fault but when he has two strikes he's got to swing if it's close and he just refuses to do it.

[HoopsDawg]

Sully should move closer to the plate with 2 strikes. Hes getting rung up on outside pitches.

[maroonmania]

Noah strikes out on that pitch again just off the outside corner. You would think he would learn to swing at that. Twice he's left a guy stranded at 3rd looking at a strikeout pitch.

[maroonmania]

We certainly aren't getting the same outside corner pitch that OM is getting.

[HoopsDawg]

Noah strikes out on that pitch again just off the outside corner. You would think he would learn to swing at that. Twice he's left a guy stranded at 3rd looking at a strikeout pitch.

He stands further off the plate than any batter on our team. It must look a foot outside. All have been balls though.

[maroonmania]

Our offense is dead right now.

[Coursesuper]

Noah strikes out on that pitch again just off the outside corner. You would think he would learn to swing at that. Twice he's left a guy stranded at 3rd looking at a strikeout pitch.

He has the best eye and approach on the squad. If he?s laying off then they are getting a call. That?s baseball.

[HoopsDawg]

Davis is sitting 98-99 with sink.

[maroonmania]

2 straight fat pitches from Davis turn into OM hits. Need this out here.

[Bdawg]

Davis just can’t stay consistent

[Activated Alpha]

Damn, Davis. Dude is struggling with command right now

[maroonmania]

Well, dangerous spot here.

[Coursesuper]

Nice Frame!

[maroonmania]

Well, we got the same pitch that struck out Noah Sullivan twice.

[HoopsDawg]

Davis just can’t stay consistent

Perfect spot for Davis- medium leverage situation

[Tater]

And Oak rewarded for belief in Davis that I did not have. that's why he's paid the big bucks

[DawgFromOxford]

Ben Davis dotting the corner to fix his mess

Pitching staff has flirted with danger all game but getting it done when it counts

[Bdawg]

May have finally gotten the corner call! Bout time ump

[Turfdawg67]

Our offense is dead right now.

BOC is so sorry that it's not 16 to 1 to appease our fans.

[maroonmania]

Nice Frame!

This ump is calling that pitch a strike more times than not even though its not.

[State82]

What a freaking beautiful pitch

[maroonmania]

OM has left the bases loaded 4 times. Wow.

[DawgFromOxford]

I?m glad Milewski is on our team

[maroonmania]

I?m glad Milewski is on our team

Dude has some serious power.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Will Clark says hi

I thought BJ Surhoff the golden spikes, ChatGPT agrees with you. I'm wrong

[Saltydog]

The Big Milewski should be his nickname..........

[Tater]

BOC is so sorry that it's not 16 to 1 to appease our fans.

It smells like we're about to be on a 2010-2013 alabama football style run with fanbase attitude.

Sully and Reese slumping with 1.100+ OPS....

[The Federalist Engineer]

Edward Drayton quote:

Milewski has a "nuclear bat"

[Leroy Jenkins]

Burns was not throwing 93 last year. Wasn?t he like 87?

[DawgFromOxford]

Sweep of the rival on the road. Give me all of that. Great weekend

[Bdawg]

Brooms again baby!

[The Federalist Engineer]

The Big Milewski should be his nickname..........

Mustang Milewski
Mash Milewski
Bam Bam Milewski
Howitzer Milewski
Hoss Milewski
Dawg Milewski

[BeardoMSU]

7-2 to start SEC play!

[HoopsDawg]

Burns was not throwing 93 last year. Wasn?t he like 87?

No. Hes always had great stuff. Just has to command it.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

7-2 to start SEC play!

Texas also 7-2. But they’ve played 6 of 9 in Austin. We’ve only played 3 of 9 in Starkville.

[BeardoMSU]

The Big Milewski should be his nickname..........

I love this idea, but he would ABSOLUTELY need to change walk-out songs...**


https://youtu.be/Xz0bwQr5xWY?si=xDSaeHVaZC0enUqc

[BeardoMSU]

Texas also 7-2. But they’ve played 6 of 9 in Austin. We’ve only played 3 of 9 in Starkville.

Yep. And we've arguably given away games to Ark (and UCLA and USM, tho not SEC teams obv). We're figuring shit out. Need to cut down of free passes, obv. Thankfully, OM sucks so bad behind the plate they refused to punish us for our mistakes.

[Turfdawg67]

7-2 to start SEC play!

And 24-4 overall!

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Texas also 7-2. But they?ve played 6 of 9 in Austin. We?ve only played 3 of 9 in Starkville.

Texas does get both South Carolina and Missouri however.

[Coach34]

Yeah, I'm on board with calling Seton Hall The Big Milewski...good job

[Coach34]

Mississippi may not make a Regional. They dont get SC or Mizzou

[Todd4State]

Mississippi may not make a Regional. They dont get SC or Mizzou

I think they are definitely in danger of the wheels falling off. They have Florida on the road next week. And honestly as weird as is it may be to say this UALR is a must win for them now.

[Coursesuper]

Yeah, I'm on board with calling Seton Hall The Big Milewski...good job

If we?re going there the it has to be Dude or The Dude or Dudarino.

[Todd4State]

How sweep it is gentlemen!

We absolutely outclassed Ole Miss and we didn't even bring our A game.

[Todd4State]

And 24-4 overall!

Really can't ask for a better start to the BOC era.

[smootness]

State and Texas have separated themselves, with UGA also there on our heels.

[Leroy Jenkins]

I myself dabbled in pacifism once... not in Nam, of course.

[Todd4State]

State and Texas have separated themselves, with UGA also there on our heels.

Easter weekend is going to be crazy at MSU!

Easter weekend is going to be crazy at MSU!

Lots of rain in the forecast right now

Say what you will about the tenants of national socialism, but at least its an ethos***

Shut the f**k up Donnie! You're out of your element!

[AlSwearengen]

Florida will probably be a factor at the end of the year, assuming their psychotic coach can keep himself and the team together. They have a lot of talent, but of course, they always do.
