Bracewell announced as starter

[TheRef]

Ben Bracewell has been announced has the starter for tonight's game against JSU.

Good deal. Time to be the captain

[CadaverDawg]

That will work. I'm guessing Cohen wants strikes, strikes, and more strikes. No walks

[MarketingBully01]

Good option, now we need to slam the door on this regional with great performances in the next two games.

[Todd4State]

Works for me.

And that leaves Laster open for Monday if needed just in case (FFF).

That means ull will have to beat 2 crafty lefties. Oh and lindgren and holder too

[Pioneer Dawg]

Anyone besides Laster and Ross was a good choice.

I've confirmed that Ben has purchased a new pair of Flyers.....

Since Ref is doing play by play, my prediction is we make Omaha! :)

That's right, boys. I'm back in the saddle. Same setup as SEC Tournament when I was 2-0 as PBP. Let's get this puppy rollin' in T-minus 1:15. Also, official first pitch time will be 6:05 CDT.

[MarketingBully01]

If I'm not mistaken, you are undefeated doing play by play. Let's hope you get to 12-0 because that would have us ending with a national championship. :)

Good job CC..

Wasn't sure if we would pitch Laster or not, thought we might. But I'm fine with Ben. Just get it over the plate and make them hit. I expect it to be low scoring but never really in question. At least I hope it isn't....

[CadaverDawg]

Say we get a big lead early....do you get Bracewell out of there and bring in Tatum, Hudson, Gentry? Or let Ben go as long as possible so as not to use any arms beyond that, although it would burn Ben for the Regional?

I would get him out of there. He is one of our best strike throwers, and could potentially be a valuable Right handed arm out of the pen Sunday or Monday if it's too early to go to Holder

[DudyDawg]

I doubt we throw Gentry again today, even though he didn't throw a huge amount of pitches yesterday, I think he gets a rest. I think it would be okay to use Ben up honestly. Save the rest of our arms to really be able to match up however we want situationally in the rest of the games

Damn good decision Cohen. Nice Job!!! It was the right move but a move a lot of coaches wouldn't have made. Ron Polk being one of them.

Or Bianco. Good thing Ellis pitched the Rebs to victory tonight*
