With his 6 hit batters last night, Lucas is tied for second place in all of Division 1 history for hit batters with six other pitchers. If he had just hit one more, he would be tied for first. #mlbdraft

I think we should put him in some more.

I have a strong feeling that Coach Cohen and Coach Thompson gave Lucas specific instructions to keep the ball inside regardless of who is at the plate, what the pitch count is, who is on base, etc.. You get that ball out over the plate or just off it outside and your coming out of the game. Probably trying to keep the Bear/Sharks from extending their arms as much as they like to slap at it.
Who knows, the HBP might have been a strategy, maybe the coaches knew that the Bear/Sharks ***** up after they get plunked and they start worrying about avoiding the bruises instead of hitting the pitch. Might of even told Lucas to throw one or two behind the batters for good measure. At any rate, we now know how to pitch to them.

Jeff Brantley says "High and Tight solves 99.99% of all pitching problems.

I assume that stat is for # of hit batters in one game?

After seeing those fags acting like they were gargling two penises the other day, I would agree that they are pussies.

From my vantage point it looked like the Ole Miss hitters started to turn their knee in a lot to try to get hit. The umpire probably should have said something but it is what it is.

Truth. With those umpires last night though- if a brawl broke out it probably would have been really bad. I think they would have had a hard time breaking it up.

I'm not sure they would have noticed it.

Our pitching staff is going to be a lot more exciting to watch now that we've added a HBP specialist.

True. And I don't think you're kidding either.

You got to love it, we hit twice as many UM batters as they got hits last night and still won the game going away. Its always good to beat OM and abuse their players at the same time.
