Sunday Game Thread (Alabama vs MSU)

[CadaverDawg]

Well, we're facing a lefty today so we will probably see Henderson in LF and a right handed DH. Any ideas who we might DH? Also, does anyone know Pirtle's status? I figure with his switch hitting ability, Cohen will want him in the lineup if he is anywhere close to feeling like playing.

I doubt we see Norris in the DH role after his 2 K performance yesterday. Any chance Slauter could DH?

[Coach34]

I hope Pirtle feels better- he crushes Lefties

I'd rather see anybody but Norris at DH- we'd get more production from a dead body

[Will James]

I hope Porter DH's.

[msstate7]

I hope Porter DH's.

I want slauter

[Will James]

I want slauter

Dunno if he can swing a bat.

[CadaverDawg]

MSU lineup: Frazier SS, Detz 3B, Renfroe RF, Pirtle 2B, Rea 1B, Bradford CF, Henderson LF, Armstrong DH, Ammirati C. LHP Lindgren.

Armstrong is the DH. I can live with that.

[Will James]

We have got to find some power in our future year's lineups.

[msstate7]

We have got to find some power in our future year's lineups.
Do we have anyone besides rea on our roster that'll provide some power next season?

[Coach34]

Do we have anyone besides rea on our roster that'll provide some power next season?

no

[msstate7]

no

It's gonna be sad when we have a pitching staff almost on minor league level and an offense closer to high school. We've gotta find some hitters

[Will James]

no

Back to 2012 ball it appears.

[Drugdog]

Got to go with Porter. He is as hot as depo stove.

[msstate7]

Good start. We need lead with rain falling already

[Dawgbite]

2-0 dawgs. How many innings to make a complete game?

[Esmerelda Villalobos]

5 and a half i think

[Dawgbite]

The outfield cameraman needs to rain-x his lens or at least wipe it occasionally.

[Will James]

Great AB Ammo/Cohen/HereComesSpiral.

[CadaverDawg]

What the hell is wrong with Detz? Shit, he's giving us nothing in the 2 hole right now.

[Coach34]

Renfroe has been a little over-aggressive lately

[Will James]

Damn defense has to make plays. Get outs. Looking at Pirtle.

[Will James]

****ing bullshit. 1B ump called a foul ball...
I woulda gotten tossed.
Nice DP Pirtle.

Lindgren lookin good. Needs his D to contribute.

[Will James]

I wouldn't bunt Rea....

[CadaverDawg]

Henderson gotta go. Get Oh Canada back in there. Ride the hot bat

[38843dawg]

I agree, Henderson doesn't bring shit to the table and Robson is beginning to earn that spot.

[CadaverDawg]

Frazier should always be able to get to that ball. What the hell was he doing over in the hole by Detz?

[Will James]

Had him out at 3rd. Lindgren cannot catch a break.

[Will James]

Can't give up that walk. I still let him start the next hitter.

[CadaverDawg]

They hit one damn ball out of the infield, and have bases loaded no outs, and a tie game. We're going to **** around and blow this damn sweep.

Pull your heads out of your asses guys.

[Will James]

Fitts to the pen.

[Will James]

Hell yeah!!

[Will James]

Bama dugout just got a warning.

[CadaverDawg]

Ross is incredible.

[Will James]

They hit one damn ball out of the infield, and have bases loaded no outs, and a tie game. We're going to **** around and blow this damn sweep.

Pull your heads out of your asses guys.

This. Pirtle trying to turn 2 going left. Frazier out of position. 2 bunt **** ups.

Pen gotta do work now.

[msstate7]

No matter what happens today, we win this series, but our starting pitching has been disappointing. Alabama is hardly an offensive powerhouse. We need our starters to go a little deeper

[Will James]

Well, Ross BABIP just regressed back to the mean. Like Robson yesterday

[CadaverDawg]

0-2 count and you end up giving up a ****ing bomb to a freshman. We just can't get out of our own way today. Shit.

Wish this ****er had been rained out.

[msstate7]

Well, Ross BABIP just regressed back to the mean. Like Robson yesterday
They hit him yesterday and today. He doesn't match up well against them.

[38843dawg]

How many ****ing homeruns have we given up this weekend to these guys? Pitching has definitely been disappointing.

[msstate7]

I can't stand a strikeout looking to end inning with guy in scoring position. Oh well, got 1 back

[CadaverDawg]

Take the bat off your damn shoulder CT. You too Detz.

This is frustrating. We're so much better than this team, but we can't help but to shit the bed at least once per weekend.

[CadaverDawg]

Why Cox? Why not Fitts? Are we throwing in the damn towel or what.

[Will James]

I'm throwing Chad till he gives me a reason to take him out.

We'll probably go right to Myles though.

[msstate7]

E5...do we lead the league in this category? Not having a legitimate sec 3b is one of my biggest problems with Cohen esp after last year. We should have this problem solved by now. Recruiting guys...do we have a 3b in this class?

[FFF]

Matchups. Trying to extend the pen. Girodo in now.

[msstate7]

Matchups. Trying to extend the pen. Girodo in now.

Girodo the last 2 days has came in and walked lefty to strike our righty. Is he our righty specialist? Haha

[FFF]

He pitched around 22 because he's hot and it set up a force at second, I imagine.

[CadaverDawg]

The 3rd baseman for Bama is from Meridian. Would be nice to have him.

[Will James]

Why in the ****ing hell are we stealing down 3. Mother **** John!!

[CadaverDawg]

Stupid. Every time we get desperate, we get ****ing stupid.

[msstate7]

Why in the ****ing hell are we stealing down 3. Mother **** John!!

Careful will! Cohen does no wrong. Forget the fact that catcher throws everyone out and we need baserunners

[CadaverDawg]

Careful will! Cohen does no wrong. Forget the fact that catcher throws everyone out and we need baserunners

It was a hit and run and Ammo didn't swing. Still a dumb assed call though.

[Will James]

It was a hit and run and Ammo didn't swing. Still a dumb assed call though.

How you figure that.

[CadaverDawg]

How you figure that.

You didn't see Ammo give a half assed late swing? He swung so late the ump didn't even notice it.

I'm watching on HailState, so I may be seeing a different camera angle...but it was clearly a hit and run. I still think it was a dumb call, but Ammo didn't protect him.

[msstate7]

2 on for our best hitter. We need renfroe niw

[msstate7]

Renfroe has to swing! He called that pitch 3 in a row

[Will James]

Armstrong took my attn away from Ammo.

Damn Hunter......Damn.

[msstate7]

Armstrong took my attn away from Ammo.

Damn Hunter......Damn.

Yeah whether hunter thinks its a strike or not he has to swing bc the ump called it one

[Will James]

Renfroe guaranteed another AB. This ones far from over.

Im bringing in Holder NOW.

[Coach34]

when your 3 and 4 hitters do nothing- your line-up usually does nothing...terrible job there

[msstate7]

when your 3 and 4 hitters do nothing- your line-up usually does nothing...terrible job there

If there's any complaint about renfroe, he doesn't hit as well with runners on.

[Will James]

C'mon Robson! One mo 'gin!

[msstate7]

I've ripped ct time and time again. He came through there though. Nice to see him pull the ball

[Will James]

Girodo throwing. Looks like he's going in for the 8th.

[Coach34]

Rea didnt know it was 2 outs and wasnt running all the way- may cost us a series

[maroonmania]

A killer that Rea couldn't score from first there given there were 2 outs and the OF dove for the ball on CT's double in the corner. ANYBODY else on the team would have already scored the tying run. Need another 2 out hit now.

[Will James]

Hell yeah Robby! **** that bad luck!

[msstate7]

If robson comes through against lefty, he may be everyday lf?

[maroonmania]

Rea didnt know it was 2 outs and wasnt running all the way- may cost us a series

Good gracious that's way worse. But luckily he scores on a Robson infield single anyway.

[msstate7]

If robson comes through against lefty, he may be everyday lf?

Robson is growing up before our eyes. I'd start him everyday

[Coach34]

little Freshman maybe growing up

[Will James]

If robson comes through against lefty, he may be everyday lf?

He's my choice for sure.

[CadaverDawg]

Wow, what a gutsy comeback after Renfroe statued it up. Great job.

Now let's find a way to win this ****er!

[Coach34]

Good gracious that's way worse. But luckily he scores on a Robson infield single anyway.

If Fatboy had been running all way- CT is at 3rd and we take the lead there on Robson's hit...no excuse for Rea ****ing up there. He's got to know better

[msstate7]

Really like seeing girodo get some outs. He could be big for us next week with ole miss struggling against lefties.

[Drugdog]

What is it going to take for Porter to hit?

[CadaverDawg]

If Fatboy had been running all way- CT is at 3rd and we take the lead there on Robson's hit...no excuse for Rea ****ing up there. He's got to know better

Yea, that was a major league **** up by Big Wes

[Will James]

No like bunt.

[msstate7]

Me either. If they walk hunter, I like pirtle against lefty

[Will James]

I just wanna know the damn reason these coaches bunt one man over. Like, what the ****s your thought process when the numbers say your and dubmass.

[CadaverDawg]

We needed to take the lead right there. Weak little popup there by Pirtle.

May Big Wes can redeem himself with a walk off if we hold em here.

[Will James]

No idea why JH didn't start this inning.

Blockhead.

[CadaverDawg]

Our infield is like Swiss cheese. How does every other team cut off dribblers in the hole, but EVERYTHING finds it's way through our infield

[Will James]

Thanks for the bunt. Against a K guy like Holder too no less

Bama don't wanna win.

[Coach34]

No idea why JH didn't start this inning.

Blockhead.

agreed- we were on borrowed time with Girodo already

[Will James]

Thanks for the bunt. Against a K guy like Holder too no less

Bama don't wanna win.

Haha Hahahaha. (Cartman laugh)

Dumbass Bammers

[Will James]

If Wes gets on, pinch run and DON'T BUNT

[msstate7]

If Wes gets on, pinch run and DON'T BUNT

Wes owes us a run. Homerun to end it? Bout time we get walk off hr

[mic]

If Fatboy had been running all way- CT is at 3rd and we take the lead there on Robson's hit...no excuse for Rea ****ing up there. He's got to know better

Agree 100%..

[Will James]

Thanks for the bunt attempts. HahahahahahahaRetards

[Hump4Hoops]

Holder strikes out a bunt attempt. He is a god damn manimal.

[msstate7]

A killer that Rea couldn't score from first there given there were 2 outs and the OF dove for the ball on CT's double in the corner. ANYBODY else on the team would have already scored the tying run. Need another 2 out hit now.

We need to work on getting Wes down to around 250 before next season. He'd be much better player

[Will James]

If Armstrong gets on DON'T BUNT

[maroonmania]

Well got out of that one but we still have 8 & 9 coming up in the bottom of the 10th before we get back to the top of the order.

[Coach34]

We need to work on getting Wes down to around 250 before next season. He'd be much better player

aint no way- better hope for 265-260

[msstate7]

Holder strikes out a bunt attempt. He is a god damn manimal.
That curve is unbelievable. It reminds me of Kerry wood's pre injury. Wood had much better fastball, but the curve is similar

[Will James]

If Slauter can swing, why didn't he start.. At DH

[msstate7]

aint no way- better hope for 265-260
He needs to slim down to whatever he can then. If he mlb aspirations, he needs to increase power and decrease weight.

[maroonmania]

Gosh, with the 2-0 count I wish Frazier would have taken a strike before swinging away.

[CadaverDawg]

Great at bat by Armstrong there. My God

[msstate7]

Gosh, with the 2-0 count I wish Frazier would have taken a strike before swinging away.

Frazier as good as he is isn't very patient for a lead off hitter. I think he was better last year bc of the patience he showed. Compare walks this year vs last

2012 .371 avg 50 bb
2013 .328avg 8 bb

[Will James]

If Renfroe gets on 1st, DON'T BUNT.

[msstate7]

No one on base with renfroe up. This would be perfect time for one of his patented solo shots

[gravedigger]

We need a lead off drag bunt here.



Just kidding will

[Esmerelda Villalobos]

Nobody on and renfroe is clutch. Anyone on and he is all thumbs

[msstate7]

Nobody on and renfroe is clutch. Anyone on and he is all thumbs

Certainly seems that way.

[msstate7]

Bunt!!!

[Will James]

Wouldn't bunt Wes

[Quaoarsking]

1st/2nd with 0 outs and absolutely only needing 1 run is the only time a sacrifice is optimal in the general case.

[msstate7]

I disagree this time will

[Will James]

See

[msstate7]

Dang Wes! Do something

[Will James]

Hail Yeah!!!!!!

[MSUDawg4Life]

Sweet! I'll take the sweep.

[msstate7]

See
Ct!!! Maybe he's back. Pulling the ball on both his big hits. That good sign

[CadaverDawg]

SWEEEEEPPP

[Todd4State]

Very nice! I'm guessing the rally sombrero is here to stay?

Looking at the SEC records, I believe we would be the fifth seed in the SEC Tournament at the moment. We wouldn't get a bye, but we would get someone like Tennessee. South Carolina is who is ahead of us by half a game. We need to try to get the fourth seed if we can.
