Alcorn state game

[JohnnyQuid]

I see the farm bureau logo is back, on a much better sign tho.

[msstate7]

Did the game start at 4?

[JohnnyQuid]

Yep bottom 1st atm

[messageboardsuperhero]

LOL, I totally forgot the game was at four today. It looks like everyone else did too.

[Tbonewannabe]

At least it is maroon and white. We could be stuck with some Tony Cachere crap like the corndogs have on their back stop. Maybe we can get the Pony to advertise, the ad might be pleasant to look at.

[Offshore Dawg]

Why do live stats suck ass so bad !!!

[JohnnyQuid]

McCord with command issues again it seems

[messageboardsuperhero]

Our defense is bailing out McCord right now. Throw strikes.

[smootness]

Good grief, Robson.

[messageboardsuperhero]

Robson bringing energy and enthusiasm for a game against Alcorn in the freezing cold with nobody there... I like it.

[JohnnyQuid]

Back to back bunts, somewhere will James head is exploding

Eta: 3 in a row, he might have stroked out by now ha:p

[messageboardsuperhero]

Question for someone watching the game- how hard are the balls Humphreys is hitting right now? Listening to Jim, it sounds like he's barely missed two home runs this game.

[I seen it dawg]

Maybe Cohen does read the board

1st one was step or two from warning track. This last one was mid warning track it was actually pretty close

[I seen it dawg]

This whole calling pitches from the dugout then catcher finding it on a wrist thing has got to go. Pitcher can't get a rhythm.

The first one was ten feet short or so. Really got under it. Second one was a shot caught right on the wall

We don't do that much usually. Not sure why we are today.

[messageboardsuperhero]

McCord still has some stuff to learn... His SS and defense are making nice plays behind him, but he's still not challenging the zone against ****ing Alcorn.

[I seen it dawg]

McCord is all over the place. You can tell he didn't have to locate in highschool just overpower people. When he learns to locate he's gonna de devasting.

[I seen it dawg]

It also might help if the ****ing plate wasn't black. Wtf can we not get a white plate.

[preachermatt83]

Alcorn scores one on a solo shot. Going to bottom 3. 3-1 good guys.

[I seen it dawg]

3-1 us to B3

[JohnnyQuid]

Think that's the rubber pellet fake dirt from the turf but agree looks like shit

[I seen it dawg]

Umpire needs to get off his ass and clean it like its real dirt

[I seen it dawg]

Walk to rook

[JohnnyQuid]

Lol robson another bunt single

[sandwolf]

Second bunt single of the game for Robson.

[I seen it dawg]

Robson bunt single. Dat boy fast. 2 on no out spur ill up

[preachermatt83]

Spruill pops out. Vick bunts over the runners. 2nd and 3rd. 2 outs for holland.

[I seen it dawg]

I like what we are doing with so much bunting. We are gonna win. No need in throwing our timing off against this puss master. May as well work on it some.

[I seen it dawg]

And it's guys that will have to bunt off the bench when it counts. Spruill, vickerson

[preachermatt83]

Holland walks. Bases loaded. 2 down for walker

[preachermatt83]

Walker flies out to left. 3-1 going to 4th

[I seen it dawg]

Walker leaves em loaded with a pop up to left

[JohnnyQuid]

Bah pop up left em juiced

[I seen it dawg]

McCord trying to be too fine. He needs to turn it loose.

[preachermatt83]

McCord has some growing to do with command but he is going to be a very good pitcher for us. He throws a 92-93 mph fastball and has some very nasty breaking and off speed stuff. Just gotta learn how to command it.

[JohnnyQuid]

Really wish McCord would just pound the zone. This lack of command is becoming worrisome

[I seen it dawg]

Guys get themselves out. Throw strikes.

[I seen it dawg]

No damage. 3-1 b4

[preachermatt83]

Wish we could have a big inning here

[I seen it dawg]

Gridley hits everything

[preachermatt83]

Gridley is our 2nd basemen. Holland better be able to play 3rd.

[I seen it dawg]

He's def in the lineup. Him playing third isn't bad. Meaning Gridley

[preachermatt83]

Gridley and Hump both hit singles. 1st and 2nd with 1 out

[preachermatt83]

He's def in the lineup. Him playing third isn't bad. Meaning Gridley

Which one fits better at 3rd?

[preachermatt83]

2 down as Rooker flies out

[I seen it dawg]

Little bit I've seen so far I think the combo of holland at 2 and Gridley at three is better than the other way around. But if it's the other way I think they both will be fine. It's more of what I haven't seen holland do.

[messageboardsuperhero]

Damn, I'm pretty sure we've stranded about 8 or 9 through four innings. We should be blowing these jokers to kingdom come.

[preachermatt83]

Robson grounds out to 1st. Going to the 5th still 3-1

[I seen it dawg]

Damn, I'm pretty sure we've stranded about 8 or 9 through four innings. We should be blowing these jokers to kingdom come.

Yeah not taking real good swings. Except Gridley

10/4. I'd be satisfied either way. As long as Gridley is not on the bench.

[preachermatt83]

McCord pumped the zone that AB.

[I seen it dawg]

10/4. I'd be satisfied either way. As long as Gridley is not on the bench.

I can't see either going to the bench unless they just flat don't hit. Holland is gonna hit and we need his LH bat. Gridley is perfect 9 hole guy. Little turd that pesters the shit out of the opposing team.

[preachermatt83]

What the crap is Bart talking about. "He made that routine play look easy".

[messageboardsuperhero]

It's amazing how much better McCord is when he throws strikes.

[preachermatt83]

Easy 3 up 3 down inning for McCord. 3-1 headed to the bottom of 5th.

[I seen it dawg]

It's amazing how much better McCord is when he throws strikes.

Yep. Pitchers are so stupid. Lol

[mstatefan91]

Wes Rea entering the game. Pinch hitting for Cody walker I think

[I seen it dawg]

Suspect that's all for morales?? Shit you saw the coach point to the bullpen when he left the dugout. Come on man that's horrible.

[I seen it dawg]

I can't see either going to the bench unless they just flat don't hit. Holland is gonna hit and we need his LH bat. Gridley is perfect 9 hole guy. Little turd that pesters the shit out of the opposing team.

Also if we find Gridley playing 3b gets overmatched by sec pitching, which I highly doubt, you can put the veteran Britton at third while you don't have to move Holland back to 2b.

[chef dixon]

We are sick on the base paths.

[TopDog58]

3 errahs on the Braves so far

[chef dixon]

This is my first getting to watch McCord here this inning. Is it just me or does he work really slowly? Looks like he's not quite comfortable or unable to find a good rhythm.

[messageboardsuperhero]

Zac Houston has melted down twice in each of his last two appearances...

[messageboardsuperhero]

Dogs up 4-2 going to B6.

[I seen it dawg]

I think it's being young and trying to be perfect. See it all the time in talented freshman. He should be fine he just needs to relax and let it go. First thing I would do is speed him up. His tempo adjustment will do wonders. Good observation.

[I seen it dawg]

Boy he did well there. Big spot to get out of for his confidence.

[I seen it dawg]

Hahaha Gridley is becoming my favorite player. Dropped down another bunt for a hit. And his music is Bruno Mars Uptown Funk. I love it!!

He's our new Maniscalco

[messageboardsuperhero]

Alright, two on and nobody out. Let's not strand them again.

[messageboardsuperhero]

Atta boy Reynolds.

[I seen it dawg]

Spruill ain't ready for primetime yet

[I seen it dawg]

Vick with big 2 out 2 run single. Expands the lead to 7-2

[chef dixon]

Our SECN+ scoreboard graphic operator is epically horrible.

[I seen it dawg]

Wow. The damn catcher didn't even think it was a strike. 7-2 to the 7th after Holland gets screwed on a K

[smootness]

We definitely need Rea back at first.

[I seen it dawg]

Thank god Rea is back this wkd. Grid needs to throw it better.

[smootness]

Lovelady is siiiiiiiick.

[I seen it dawg]

Lovelady has a cannon

[Saltydog]

We've had four or five errors that would have never happened had Wes Rea been healthy. Lovelady has been OUTSTANDING........

[msstate7]

Lovelady is siiiiiiiick.

With lovelady's defense, I wonder if we'll dh collins some on weekend series. Like on Saturday to keep collins fresh all year

[I seen it dawg]

Definitely gives us options. Although I hate DHing a catcher. If Lovelady gets hurt we have to burn the DH or have Walker in the lineup which doesn't work in the SEC.

Good point. Completely slipped my mind

[I seen it dawg]

My boy!!!!

[smootness]

My gosh. Gridley is ridiculous. And Cohen is right - the best thing about him is that he never tries to do too much. He understands that a half-swing that punches the ball just over the 1B is just as good as a ball crushed into the gap.

[I seen it dawg]

Wtf?? Secn just shuts it down? Says event has ended.

[smootness]

Wtf?? Secn just shuts it down? Says event has ended.

Yep, same here. And Live Stats are still useless.

[preachermatt83]

Here too. Stupid crap.

[Bothrops]

That royally sucks

[JohnnyQuid]

Same. What a bunch a bullshit

[yjnkdawg]

How can it end when it's still in the 7th innning? Thanks ESPN -SECN+.

[jbjones]

10-2 Dawgs, B8, Vickerson leading off.

[jbjones]

Vickerson fouls out down the 3rd base line, 1 down. Wadell at the plate.

[jbjones]

3rd baseman up against the fence, catches the foul, 2 down. Lovelady at the plate.

[jbjones]

Lovelady flies out to 2nd, that'll do it for the 8th. Remains 10-2, Dagws.

[huffy]

it's not just the state game either. same for Vandy and Bama

[jbjones]

T9, Logan Elliot pitching.

[jbjones]

Elliot recorded the leadoff strikeout,

Next batter hit a grounder up the middle. 1 on, 1 out. Top 9, 10-2 Dawgs.

[jbjones]

There's a walk, so that's 2 on for the Braves with 1 out.

[yjnkdawg]

it's not just the state game either. same for Vandy and Bama


Must be an ESPN glitch.

[jbjones]

Runner steals 3rd, throw got behind Britton, and into left. Runners at the corners.

Another srikeout recorded, 2 down, 10-2 Dawgs.

[jbjones]

BALLGAME. Dawgs win 10-2.

Final play was a tap down the 1st base line, the Pitcher fielded it and tagged the runner.

[Martianlander]

BALLGAME. Dawgs win 10-2.

Great-thanks for keeping us posted.

[State82]

Good job jbjones

[yjnkdawg]

Yeah, thanks, jbjones.

[I seen it dawg]

Nice job jbj. Picked up espns slack

[Bully13]

help me out insiders and those who get to watch. it seems to me that offensively , we seem to be capitalizing better on our opponents defensive mistakes better. it seems last year when our opponents made mistakes, we didn't capitalize. are we sniffin' the blood better this year? college baseball always offers up shit. some teams take it and make something of it while others just don't seem to do so. I think we're catching on so far. what say ye?

From what I've seen, it seems that we are just hitting the ball better 1-9 than last year. Robson, Gridley and Heck get on base nearly every time and the rest of the guys aren't far behind.
We have more pop than last year with Reynolds, Hump, and Rooker being more powerful than Britton, Detz, Hendu/Armstrong. Robson > CT also...

We are light yrs better offensively. We just have a ton more talent than last year.
