[Dawg496]

Collins starting at catcher. Pirtle batting 3rd. Rea down to 7th.

Vickerson still leading off and no Henderson. Can't win em all I guess.

[CadaverDawg]

No Henderson? What. The. Absolute. F*CK?

Good things happen on offense when Demarcus is in the lineup

[Todd4State]

He should flip flop Armstrong and Heck.

[CadaverDawg]

He should flip flop Armstrong and Heck.

He should flip flop Armstrong and Henderson

[Dawg496]

He should flip flop Armstrong and Heck.

That and starting Henderson in RF and leading off would do wonders. Not sure who Vickerson is banging to still be in the lineup.

[CadaverDawg]

No doubt about Hendo. He's just one of the better hitters on an offense that blows... No reason to start a guy like that**

[Dawg496]

Maybe Cohen is racist.*****

[cbrunt29]

This lineup would be ok with me if Henderson takes Vickersons spot. Absolutely crazy to leave hendo out the lineup.

[Esmerelda Villalobos]

cadaver or will, im heading out towArds mississippi. Can yall give good play by play tonight or are yall at game?

[msstate7]

No Henderson? What. The. Absolute. F*CK?

One good thing about this is sometime in the game britton will be up to bat in crucial spot and we can pinch DH

[Esmerelda Villalobos]

Vickerson continues to play while hendu rides pine. I just dont get it. I can live with this lineup.

Id prefer to shake it up. Detz at first, garner or hump dh and britton at third.
Play hendu in left over vick or in right and let armstrong play left. Doesnt matter.

Hopefully collins can handle ross' dirt balls.

[CadaverDawg]

cadaver or will, im heading out towArds mississippi. Can yall give good play by play tonight or are yall at game?

I'm headed out of town, so I'll be driving and listening on the radio. Maybe Will can help us out. I'd love some play by play tonight from someone on here

[Esmerelda Villalobos]

Yeah i wont pick up radio until probably the 7th. It should still be 0-0 so no updates needed. Ha

I assume will is going to the game. Maybe coach or someone can handle it.

[Coach34]

He should flip flop Armstrong and Henderson

Armstrong is an everyday player for us- to suggest otherwise is nuts. But Hendo does deserve to play also- agree there. Armstrong may be our best player right now

[Esmerelda Villalobos]

Armstrong is an everyday player for us- to suggest otherwise is nuts. But Hendo does deserve to play also- agree there. Armstrong may be our best player right now

Plus 1. He doesnt have that "wtf" moment in the field or base paths that hendu has every other game.

That said, both are 2 of our best players and should play every day.

[CadaverDawg]

Just heard Jim Ellis tell us who was batting "SEXT!" in the order. And we have a few 6 tall players.

He's the only person above the age of 5 that cannot say "sixth"

[CadaverDawg]

Plus 1. He doesnt have that "wtf" moment in the field or base paths that hendu has every other game.

That said, both are 2 of our best players and should play every day.

Armstrong can't have as many wtf moments, bc he doesn't do shit when it matters. But I digress. Henderson steps up in key spots against the best teams...Armstrong plays well until we need him to step up against a good team.

[CadaverDawg]

So I tune in a minute or two late and OM is about to score? What happened?

[RossDawg82]

2-0 Rebs

[CadaverDawg]

2-0 shitheads. Ross is getting shelled

[CadaverDawg]

2 runs is a lot to overcome for our offense

[Coach34]

Cant leave that shit in the middle of the plate

[CadaverDawg]

2-0 headed to bottom of 1st. Shitty start

[Coach34]

3 hits on 1st pitches...need to nibble more vs these ****heads

[Coach34]

groundball down the line hit the base...other two groundballs were hit hard...Ross has got to hit the black early in counts cause they are being very aggressive

[CadaverDawg]

Vick walks to leadoff

[RossDawg82]

All we need is too chip away. I seriously doubt RM will have another inning like that

[CadaverDawg]

Detz with a Double play. And shit continues

[mparkerfd20]

We gonna get skulled

[CadaverDawg]

Maybe we should bunt more. Our hitting is garbage

[Coach34]

Detz batting .210 and hitting into double plays is killing us

[CadaverDawg]

Fly out for Pirtle.

2-0 OM after 1

[MarketingBully01]

All we need is too chip away. I seriously doubt RM will have another inning like that

His hardest inning is always the first inning. We will be fine if we can string some hits together.

[CadaverDawg]

Lead off walk and he never even hits 2nd base

[CadaverDawg]

Single to lead off for OM. They are smoking Ross

[CadaverDawg]

Sac bunt. 1 down and a speedster on 2nd

[mparkerfd20]

I think we get swept again. They killing Ross

[CadaverDawg]

Double scores 1.

3-0

They are swinging at EVERY first pitch, and Ross keeps throwing it down the middle. Smdh

[CadaverDawg]

Fly out, 2 down, man on 2nd.

[CadaverDawg]

If we lose 2+ to these guys, we just better hope we make a Regional period. This is starting to worry me.

[Coach34]

jesus. Uphill battle here

[CadaverDawg]

3-0 OM headed to bottom of 2nd

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

What's this "swing at first pitch" strategy OM is using? Is it even legal?

[MarketingBully01]

Not settling on a lineup early with this type of team has killed our ability to be consistent at the plate.

[CadaverDawg]

[CadaverDawg]

[cbrunt29]

Damn it vickerson

[Coach34]

Thats why you play Britton- gold glove and then he might help offensively

[MarketingBully01]

Our great non lead off hitter who sucks tremendously in the lead off spot. WTG Vick!

[CadaverDawg]

Detz

0-1
1-1
2-1

WE literally shouldnt play a game without Britton at 3rd

[CadaverDawg]

Pirtle

1-1

Hit By Pitch

Need a hit from Collins now

[CadaverDawg]

Collins

Fly out

3-1 OM after 3

[Coach34]

C;mon Collins

[CadaverDawg]

I'm out, someone take over

[RossDawg82]

I think Collins will end up bring one of our best

[Coach34]

Mitchell not throwing well hurts

[RossDawg82]

I just don't think our offense is built to overcome this type of deficit. Maybe we can take the next two because I think this could get ugly fast

[Coach34]

Britton just made an all-star play at 3rd

[HailState39110]

Ole Miss has 5 hits off the first pitch Ross throws. Obviously the game plan going in was to swing early on him and don't let him work the counts

[Coach34]

and a double...we're done tonight. I'll see you guys later

[RossDawg82]

Ball game!!!! Now the serious drinking begins

[MarketingBully01]

I just don't think our offense is built to overcome this type of deficit. Maybe we can take the next two because I think this could get ugly fast

How the hell can we take the next two? We can't hit or score worth shit. Mitchell has to damn near pitch a perfect game to win his game. Our biggest issues are at the plate which it's obvious Cohen doesn't want to fix. Leading off with Vickerson? Are you freaking kidding me? Now it's 5-1 Ole Miss against arguably our best pitcher.

[MarketingBully01]

I swear all you need is a good breaking ball pitcher and you will shut our team out.

[MarketingBully01]

Bradford needs to sit his ass on the bench...how many times has he been caught on the bases? That was dumb as hell.

[MarketingBully01]

5-1 Ole Miss top of the 5th...

[Coach34]

Sr's and veterans making bullshit mistakes. That is our team. You are only as good as your veterans on any team. CT's mistake is the latest example

[Coach34]

My boy Britton is 2-2 btw

[maroonmania]

I am so sick of baserunning blunders with this team I could scream. Britton beats out an infield ball at first and CT gets thrown out between 3rd and home to end the inning. Could have had bases loaded with the tying run coming to the plate. We do this crap OVER and OVER and OVER. Our players have the baserunning skills of a little leaguer. Nothing like giving away outs when you are down by 4.

[MarketingBully01]

That is the difference you are right C34. No leadership. If we played the newcomers, this team would overall be better. This team is sucking because our veterans have sucked.

CT has about 3/4 of those base running mistakes.

[MarketingBully01]

5-1 Ole Miss going to bottom of the 5th.

[MarketingBully01]

Come on Vick do something!

[Coach34]

That is the difference you are right C34. No leadership. If we played the newcomers, this team would overall be better. This team is sucking because our veterans have sucked.

As a coach- you have to commit one way or the other- marginal Seniors and Jr's or more talented yet inexperienced Freshman...Cohen has chosen to go with the experience for this season. There is no going back at this point

[MarketingBully01]

Woot finally a base hit from Vick!

[MarketingBully01]

As a coach- you have to commit one way or the other- marginal Seniors and Jr's or more talented yet inexperienced Freshman...Cohen has chosen to go with the experience for this season. There is no going back at this point

That has bitten him in the ass this year.

[Bothrops]

Like it or not, OM is the best team we've faced since UCSB.

[Coach34]

Detz swung his way out of a walk. Thank god Cohen started Vick or thats a dp

[MarketingBully01]

Really? Vandy is better then Ole Miss. We are struggling and Ross had his worst outing so far.

[CJDAWG85]

Detz in the 2 hole is beyond stupid. He's into what would've been 3 double plays tonight. Luckily we've sent the runner on 2 of them.

[MarketingBully01]

Yeah he is struggling severely.

[Coach34]

Beede is getting his ass beat again tonight. A&M up 5-1 in the 6th or 7th

[MarketingBully01]

This team just doesn't have the same fire it had last year. They don't seem to have any pride. It looks like they are just going through the motions tonight but have been doing that since LSU. Shit, they did it the first game against Arkansas as well.

[maroonmania]

We are just not a very good team right now. We are not the quality of a host team and if we keep this up it may be questionable if we even belong in post season.

[MarketingBully01]

Man, if Britton could hit .300 he would have a big MLB career.

[maroonmania]

Detz in the 2 hole is beyond stupid. He's into what would've been 3 double plays tonight. Luckily we've sent the runner on 2 of them.

So is Vick in the leadoff spot with Armstrong hitting like he is with his speed but Vick still leads off. Cohen is hardheaded as can be at times.

[HailState39110]

We are just not a very good team right now.

Right now? We are 2/3s through the season. It's time to admit we aren't very good period. This team ain't got it . Above average pitching but not enough pop in the lineup and too many base running errors

[MarketingBully01]

This ump is woefully inconsistent.

[MarketingBully01]

Mitchell just doesn't have it tonight.

[MarketingBully01]

Bottom of the sixth, Ole Miss ahead 5-1

[MarketingBully01]

What the heck is Vickerson doing playing RF anyway a position he hasn't played all year.

[CadaverDawg]

What the heck is Vickerson doing playing RF anyway a position he hasn't played all year.

He played it in high school and 1 year in Juco. Better question is why did he ever play LF since he never has in his life. #Cohening

[MarketingBully01]

He hasn't played it this whole year and he has been struggling out there. He almost misplayed the ball at the track by over running it (if you can believe that) and over threw a ball that allowed runners to get to second and third. Luckily we got a ground out to get out of that inning.

[RougeDawg]

That has bitten him in the ass this year.

No what has bitten him in the ass is not having two studs in the lineup to bail him out and cover up his inability to teach hitters proper technique and approach at the plate. Nothing more, nothing less. There's a strange reason that Armstrong is our best hitter with the best technique and approach at the plate. Can anyone guess why? Anyone?????? Maybe one day people will start to see what I'm talking about if these last few weeks haven't made the light come on just yet.

If anyone cares to do so go back to my poss during last season. He should have played more and he is our most mechanically sound hitter because why?????? HE PLAYED JUCO AND WAS TAUGHT HOW TO HIT.

[MarketingBully01]

Another strike out for Rea. I am now on the bench his ass bandwagon. Going to the top of the 7th 5-1 Ole Miss.

[msstate7]

4 straight sec losses. 6 out of 8. We aren't good. There are hs teams in miss that hit better than us. I'm extremely disappointed in this team, but the fact is they just suck

[CadaverDawg]

He hasn't played it this whole year and he has been struggling out there. He almost misplayed the ball at the track by over running it (if you can believe that) and over threw a ball that allowed runners to get to second and third. Luckily we got a ground out to get out of that inning.

Not surprised. Our hitters aren't comfortable due to lack of consistency in the lineup, and now we're doing it in the field. For Christ's sake, put our best players out there and let them do what got them recruited

[MarketingBully01]

Do we even have the ability to come back from four runs?

[MarketingBully01]

Not surprised. Our hitters aren't comfortable due to lack of consistency in the lineup, and now we're doing it in the field. For Christ's sake, put our best players out there and let them do what got them recruited

Agreed Cadaver, agreed.

[CadaverDawg]

This team, and more importantly these Seniors, are a disappointment and should be embarrassed. Wake the hell up and lead. Quit acting like pussies that feel like they deserve a spot in postseason bc of last year. You're getting whooped by a bunch of bitches

[MarketingBully01]

I think the reason they have hit Mitchell is that his slurve wasn't breaking as sharp and stayed up. Hence their ability to hit it. If he was sharp tonight, he would have had more then 5 strike outs as aggressive they are swinging.

[maroonmania]

Do we even have the ability to come back from four runs?

Not unless we get a ton of walks, HBP and errors from the other team.

[maroonmania]

And Armstrong on base again. Glad we are keeping him down in the 7 hole.

[DudyDawg]

Been saying it for three weeks. Armstrong. Lead off.

[MarketingBully01]

Why don't we have Armstrong leading off? That is the biggest enigma I have seen so far this year.

[MarketingBully01]

Here comes our fearless lead off guy....

[CadaverDawg]

Why don't we have Armstrong leading off? That is the biggest enigma I have seen so far this year.

Same reason Henderson, our other best hitter, is riding pine. #Cohening

[DudyDawg]

269 is what you need in the one hole****

[ghostofjackie]

No way this team will make it far this year. We have no leadership and we hit like ****ing britches.

[MarketingBully01]

Just shit....

[maroonmania]

So how many more games can we win this year scoring 1 to 2 runs per game?

[MarketingBully01]

Benching Detz, Rea, and Vickerson for any other players on our team would make our hitting so much better.

[MarketingBully01]

Henderson for Vickerson, Garner for Rea, and Humphreys for Detz would make our batting much much better.

[CadaverDawg]

Hope our football team does more with expectations than this baseball team

[CadaverDawg]

Henderson for Vickerson, Garner for Rea, and Humphreys for Detz would make our batting much much better.

Yep. Why not try it

[HailState39110]

This will be the 10th game in a row we haven't scored more than 5 runs. Starting with the Sunday game vs Vandy we have scored 1,3,0,5,5,0,1,4,4,1

Avg runs per game last 10 games = 2.4

[MarketingBully01]

Down to our last six outs down 4 let's see if we can do it...

[MarketingBully01]

Why Pirtle why??????!

[MarketingBully01]

Keep it a single, why try to stretch it to a double? Bull shit call there. Pirtle's goof and CT's goof seniors just ****ing up.

[Coach34]

Why Pirtle why??????!

You are what your Sr's and Jr's are

[MarketingBully01]

We run ourselves out of more innings then any team I have ever seen in baseball

[Bully13]

Scoring 4 runs in 2 innings would be like winning the lottery with this crew

[MarketingBully01]

Man we suck.

[MarketingBully01]

How were we a top ten preseason team? I just really don't understand it.

[MarketingBully01]

After tonight. 21-14 and 6-7 in the conference. A very pedestrian record and not a good RPI.

[Esmerelda Villalobos]

We have good seniors, they dont play. Hendu and armstrong are our beat two players and they arent every day starters

[MarketingBully01]

Great count for Rea 2-0 let's see what he can do

[MarketingBully01]

Man Rea is struggling. Perfect ball to drive and he just fouls it off.

[cbrunt29]

Watching this game really makes me wanna think twice before coming to the game tomorrow

[MarketingBully01]

I just don't get the That's baseball crap. There are reasons these guys are catching our balls and are in perfect position to get these balls. It's called scouting reports. It's very easy to catch a line shot when you know Rea goes the other way. He always does that shit. Same with our other hitters. No adjustments so Ole Miss has been in perfect position when we have smashed the ball.

[MarketingBully01]

So we need five runs to win this thing and only three outs. Yeah, I'd say that's a 10% chance of happening.

[maroonmania]

Why Pirtle why??????!

Are players are apparently brain damaged. You don't risk taking an extra base in the 8th inning down 4 runs. Its just moronic. Its one thing to just lose because we get outplayed by the other team but infuriates me when we just do stuff to give ourselves absolutely no shot to win.

[CadaverDawg]

FYI...Buddy just told me that Nick Flair is hitting .395 with 7 bombs this year. Was batting .450 as of a few weeks ago. Maybe Flair was in Cohen's doghouse because he didn't agree to become a slap hitter when he knew he could mash.

[MarketingBully01]

Who is he playing for?

[msstate7]

Cohen has 2 sit rea. He's beyond terrible. Fat bj upton

[MarketingBully01]

Shit We need to get Ross out of there. T-ball hitters could hit the shit he is serving up.

[MarketingBully01]

Cohen has 2 sit rea. He's beyond terrible. Fat bj upton

He needs to bench the following, Rea Detz and Vickerson and put in Garner Humphreys and Henderson and our lineup all of the sudden becomes a little more formidable.

[MarketingBully01]

That's why Britton never should leave 3rd EVER

[MarketingBully01]

This was the worst we have played so far this year. Great timing guys and great start to Super Bulldog Weekend.

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

That's why Britton never should leave 3rd EVER

Detz will start at 3rd tomorrow. No doubt about it

[maroonmania]

Wow, a Garner sighting!

[Bothrops]

Our confidence is gone, we're questioning ourselves...we are a dismayed baseball team.

[MarketingBully01]

Cohen has ****ed us too because guys that could have helped us right now haven't hit in weeks. It's really a bunch of crap.

[MarketingBully01]

Wow, a Garner sighting!

Yeah, and he put Humphreys in too both kids pinch hitting in impossible situations with a crafty lefty. Good decision there.

[CadaverDawg]

Who is he playing for?

Not sure...GulfCoast?

[Esmerelda Villalobos]

13k plus for a friday night. All time friday attendance record to see that turd

[CadaverDawg]

Armstrong, Hendo, and Pirtle are the only Seniors that should sniff the field tomorrow.

[Bothrops]

Damn, I feel like drinking now.

[CadaverDawg]

13k plus for a friday night. All time friday attendance record to see that turd

Ole Miss fans may break the record for us tomorrow , or Sunday at the sweep

[MarketingBully01]

Ole Miss fans may break the record for us tomorrow , or Sunday at the sweep

That would be the worst travesty of the whole 2013-2014 school year if Ole Miss sweeps us.

[Skydawg1]

Get ready, it could easily happen. We wasted our "ace" tonight. Hit for shit. Basepath blunders. It just...could VERY easily happen. Gonna go ahead and predict that this is UM's year in Omaha to lose.
