[Tbonewannabe]

I like the line up and I hope the Collins hitting 2nd experiment is over.

[Hattdawg]

I like the line up and I hope the Collins hitting 2nd experiment is over.

I like Krugar in the 2 hole. I think he will start coming back around.

[Tbonewannabe]

The lineup also has a lot of left, right, left switch up. Makes it hard to bring in relief pitchers based on match ups.

[CadaverDawg]

Let's Go!!

Awesome gif, CD. One of my favorite parts in that movie.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Starting on ESPN news. Moving to espnu later

[whosyourdawgy]

Wtf does Ben McDonald have on his body? That's gawd awful

[msstate7]

Wtf does Ben McDonald have on his body? That's gawd awful

He's a fan of Saul goodman

[War Machine Dawg]

#Cohening, mane.

That said, I really like this lineup.

[Bucky Dog]

Kruger with a bomb!

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Kruger!

[msstate7]

It Kruger can keep hitting sec pitching, we're gonna be a very good offensive team

[Brando]

THAT A BOY KRUGER!!!

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Lowe grounds out

[Brando]

He should have had one last night also, but the damn wind blew it back...

[whosyourdawgy]

Cohen is a genius

[Engine]

Someone smart called for the Kruger 2 hole earlier this year and others called him dumb for it.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Hump with the strikeout

[whosyourdawgy]

Somebody slap Humphreys and wake him up. Damn.

[msstate7]

Hump... Little known fact, you have to swing the bat to get a hit

[War Machine Dawg]

1-0 Dawgs after T1.

[starkvegasdawg]

Bama beat A&M today.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Even with the homer, that was a very quick top of the first

[Brando]

Going Botttom 1st, Dawgs up 1-0 off Kruger blast.

[msstate7]

How soon does lsu drop a bunt to test sexton? I'd do it right here if I were them

[Harrydawg]

Mlb throw out by Eli

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Duplantis looked awful slow

[War Machine Dawg]

Please run on Marrero. Please!

[msstate7]

Really like rooker's bat, but not his glove. We really have 3 guys (Collins, rooker, and hump) that would be better off as a dh.

Now marrero has a position... Atta boy, elih

[msstate7]

Please run on Marrero. Please!

He's got a gun... Needs some work on locating them though. He's gonna be hell to run on next year

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Marrero very mature for a freshman. The benefits of his dad being in MLB

[Brando]

Eli will be a 1st round pick by the time he comes out as a JR. He is going to be big time for the program...

[War Machine Dawg]

Backwards K to end the 1st. 1-0 Good Guys

[msstate7]

Atta boy, sexton

[AlmostPositive]

We have a catcher.

[AlmostPositive]

You have to love Sexton's demeanor on the mound. He's a killer.

[Harrydawg]

And the Sexton stare down after the K, all the way to the dugout.

He's saying, I'm here bitches, letgo

[msstate7]

You have to love Sexton's demeanor on the mound. He's a killer.

Got a little graveman in him

[JohnnyQuid]

You have to love Sexton's demeanor on the mound. He's a killer.

yup I like it

[JohnnyQuid]

Damn marerro got fooled bad

[msstate7]

Lange looking good now

[msstate7]

That right there is what made Collins great as a freshman. Would love to see him not pull everything

[BulldogBear]

Is this not on SECN+ ?

I don't get ESPNU but didn't have any trouble getting the game on espn app last night via SECN+

[JohnnyQuid]

Is this not on SECN+ ?

I don't get ESPNU but didn't have any trouble getting the game on espn app last night via SECN+

should still be online yes if it's on any of the espn channels it's available online also

[War Machine Dawg]

1-0 Dawgs headed B2.

[CadaverDawg]

Something looks drawn out and uncomfortable in Sexton's delivery this inning. Am I seeing things?

Not affecting him so far, just looks different to me

[Dawg61]

Is this not on SECN+ ?

I don't get ESPNU but didn't have any trouble getting the game on espn app last night via SECN+

ESPNU channel online

[msstate7]

Kruger seeing the ball well right now

[War Machine Dawg]

1-0 Dawgs headed B3.

[msstate7]

Nasty

[BulldogBear]

should still be online yes if it's on any of the espn channels it's available online also


ESPNU channel online

I don't have th3 right to ESPNU. Don't have a package that includes it. Cut my cable bill from 250 to 100 just by dumping a few channels.

Anyway, same as last night but yet I still was able to get it online because it was also on SECN+

I guess tonight it's not

[War Machine Dawg]

Quick inning for Sexton. Less than 35 pitches so far.

1-0 Dawgs after 3.

[CadaverDawg]

Nice work by Sexton through 3. Seems like he is throwing very few fastballs

[MarketingBully]

Alabama beats that "invincible" A&M team 7-4. Last week was just an anomaly.

[msstate7]

Alabama beats that "invincible" A&M team 7-4. Last week was just a typical SBW.

Fify

[AlmostPositive]

Mainiere is one tight-lipped constipated looking sack of shit. Love seeing him lose.

[CadaverDawg]

We have not looked good against Lange so far, outside of Kruger

[msstate7]

We have not looked good against Lange so far, outside of Kruger

Need to work counts more

[War Machine Dawg]

1-0 Dawgs headed B4.

[MarketingBully]

Fify

They have scored a total of 8 runs the first two games against Alabama. And yesterday's game went to extra innings. They could easily have two losses to Alabama already.

[msstate7]

Can't believe lsu hasn't dropped a couple bunt for hit attempts to test sexton

[BulldogBear]

Just streaming Jim Ellis now

[War Machine Dawg]

Mainiere is one tight-lipped constipated looking sack of shit. Love seeing him lose.

There was a time not so long ago we'd have killed to have that tight-lipped constipated looking sack of shit running our program.

[JohnnyQuid]

I don't have th3 right to ESPNU. Don't have a package that includes it. Cut my cable bill from 250 to 100 just by dumping a few channels.

Anyway, same as last night but yet I still was able to get it online because it was also on SECN+

wasn't on tv last night was just secn+. that's the difference

[msstate7]

They have scored a total of 8 runs the first two games against Alabama. And yesterday's game went to extra innings. They could easily have two losses to Alabama already.

Kinda makes me a little worried about bama series esp since it starts on Thursday and we play mayor cup Tuesday

[War Machine Dawg]

Ben McDonald is a really damn good commentator.

[msstate7]

Ben McDonald is a really damn good commentator.

I agree

[BulldogBear]

wasn't on tv last night was just secn+. that's the difference

That's it then. I thought last night was on ESPNU As well.

[War Machine Dawg]

Kinda makes me a little worried about bama series esp since it starts on Thursday and we play mayor cup Tuesday

You worry too damned much.
https://i.imgflip.com/z458u.jpg

[War Machine Dawg]

1-0 Dawgs after 4. Sexton cruising. We got us a pitching duel in the Red Stick.

[Bully13]

should still be online yes if it's on any of the espn channels it's available online also

I have it on uverse espn TV cable here in N TX. Much to the delight of followers of this thread and the civilized world.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Pitches through 4 innings

Sexton - 49
Lange - 43

[MarketingBully]

Kinda makes me a little worried about bama series esp since it starts on Thursday and we play mayor cup Tuesday

I think our play last weekend had a lot to do with A&M's success as much as they were good. We just didn't play as well as we have the whole season.

[War Machine Dawg]

I think our play last weekend had a lot to do with A&M's success as much as they were good. We just didn't play as well as we have the whole season.

And Cohen can't get a team up for SBW.

[CadaverDawg]

Collins pop up? You don't say...

[War Machine Dawg]

Popup Collins living up to one of his nicknames. Why does he not sit for a few days to clear his damn head?

[msstate7]

You worry too damned much.
https://i.imgflip.com/z458u.jpg

The braves suck. I really need state to have a great year for my baseball fix haha

[Saltydog]

nt

[War Machine Dawg]

Hell of a play by the Tigah LF. Robbed Gridley of extra bases. 1-0 Dawgs headed B5.

[CadaverDawg]

Lange could throw 15 innings at this pace. We gotta work some counts or start getting some hits if we're not going to work counts.

[JohnnyQuid]

Collins pop up? You don't say...

shocker

[CadaverDawg]

It's frustrating to get a good pitching performance like this on the road and not be scoring any runs

[War Machine Dawg]

The braves suck. I really need state to have a great year for my baseball fix haha

Lol, I feel ya. Just saying, we've only lost one series in SEC play so far. And we look like we might be on our way to stealing a series in Baton Rouge. No need to worry about the back end of our SEC schedule yet.

[War Machine Dawg]

It's frustrating to get a good pitching performance like this on the road and not be scoring any runs

Yeah, gotta figure 1 isn't going to stand up against LSU. Not expanding may come back to bite us.

[msstate7]

Need Alexander back... That's an out with him

[CadaverDawg]

Shit. Leadoff is on.

We should have a 3-4 run cushion the way Sexton has pitched. Bats are silent

[War Machine Dawg]

Need Alexander back... That's an out with him

Need him real bad.

[War Machine Dawg]

C'mon, Sexton. Stop worrying about the guy on base. Make pitches and get the guy at the plate.

[Saltydog]

nt

[War Machine Dawg]

Cohen getting too cute with this throwing over shit. Let him pitch, John. He's rolling.

And Gridley costs us ANOTHER DP this weekend.

[msstate7]

Our dp tandem isn't good

[CadaverDawg]

Dammit Gridley, tighten up. You can't **** around on the road

[Saltydog]

nt

[CadaverDawg]

Stop throwing over. Shit John

[JohnnyQuid]

marerro a beast

[msstate7]

Dammit Gridley, tighten up. You can't **** around on the road

Gridley bobbled, but Stovall still had em with a good throw... Neither are playing well in the field right now

[War Machine Dawg]

Marrero nails another on a failed hit and run. CANNON!

[CadaverDawg]

Haha, Manieri...played by Cohen.

#DealWithIt

[CadaverDawg]

Dammit, Sexton...it was 1-2

[CadaverDawg]

That ball didn't hit him

[CadaverDawg]

Attaboy Sexton.

Now hit the damn ball boys!

[War Machine Dawg]

Sexton out of the jam. 1-0 Good Guys after 5.

C'mon, bats, wake the hell up!!!

[War Machine Dawg]

That ball didn't hit him

It may have, but it hit the ground first. Therefore, no HBP.

[Bully13]

Maneiri can go 17 himself

[BulldogBear]

Good job lads

[War Machine Dawg]

1 pitch, 1 out. Work the damn count!

[msstate7]

1 pitch, 1 out. Work the damn count!
Stovall has seen 2 pitches

[BulldogBear]

Bwahahah

[War Machine Dawg]

Stovall has seen 2 pitches

I'm all for being aggressive, but damn. We haven't worked this guy at all. 56 pitches in the 6th isn't good for us.

[Brando]

Damn I love Ben McDonald....

[msstate7]

Atta boy, Kruger

[War Machine Dawg]

And Kruger lines one into right. 1st and 2nd, 1 out, Lowe up. Really need a hit here.

[JohnnyQuid]

kruger banging

[msstate7]

kruger banging

He really is... We need him too

[Brando]

Kruger is rtaking tonite... Keep his ass in the 2 hole Cohen...

[War Machine Dawg]

Damn I love Ben McDonald....

http://i977.photobucket.com/albums/ae251/swebb1/tumblr_inline_mr7y7cnTLb1qz4rgp.gif

[War Machine Dawg]

And Lowe reaches. Bases juiced, 1 out, Hump to the plate. C'mon, Reid!

[msstate7]

What's lowe's draft stock look like? I would love to get him back next year. He always seems to have a good ab

[JohnnyQuid]

put the ball in play somewhere reid anything but a strikeout

[Bucky Dog]

And Lowe reaches. Bases juiced, 1 out, Hump to the plate. C'mon, Reid!

He is due!!

[War Machine Dawg]

put the ball in play somewhere reid anything but a strikeout

No popup, either. Sac fly at least.

[BulldogBear]

Bases Juiced for Humphreys

[msstate7]

Good job, hump

[JohnnyQuid]

atta boy. 2-0

[War Machine Dawg]

Reid does his job, drives home Mangum. Nice grab by Frailey, tho. 2-0 Dawgs.

Still 1st & 2nd, 2 out, Rooker up.

[Bucky Dog]

I will take that sac fly from Hump. He hit it hard.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Got another run and finally working Lange through some pitches.

[msstate7]

I will take that sac fly from Hump. He hit it hard.

Every time

[Brando]

Lange doesnt look very good in the stretch. Keep him in and we may get to him...

[BulldogBear]

I forget the radio stream is 30 seconds behind!!

[msstate7]

Bad ab, rooker

[War Machine Dawg]

Dawgs extend the lead. 2-0 Good Guys after 6.

[CadaverDawg]

Damn you Rooker. Learn to wait back & go oppo

[JohnnyQuid]

terrible rooker

[Brando]

Hurt ourselves there. Swung at 2 damn balls...

[GreenheadDawg]

Damn that was an ugly AB for Rooker.

[msstate7]

Shut down inning, sexton... Make it happen

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Dawgs extend the lead. 2-0 Good Guys after 6.

After 5-1/2

[War Machine Dawg]

Got another run and finally working Lange through some pitches.

Yep. That was a big inning for us if for no other reason than we finally made Lange work and throw a bunch of high stress pitches.

[War Machine Dawg]

After 5-1/2

Damn, you right. My bad.

[War Machine Dawg]

Damn you Rooker. Learn to wait back & go oppo

He was thinking 3-run bomb all the way fo sho.

[CadaverDawg]

I keep waiting on our infield to cost us a big game. That was a bad hop, but too many E's

[msstate7]

I keep waiting on our infield to cost us a big game. That was a bad hop, but too many E's

Any word on Alexander?

[War Machine Dawg]

Dammit John, stop this throwing over shit. Let Sexton pitch!!!

[JohnnyQuid]

leggo 7

[msstate7]

Good play, collins

[CadaverDawg]

Attaboy Sexton

[BeardoMSU]

Nice pick from Collins to get the last out. Sexton has plenty of pitches left at this rate. *knock on wood.

[War Machine Dawg]

2-0 Dawgs after 6. Sexton is rolling. Under 70 pitches through 6.

[CadaverDawg]

Any word on Alexander?

Nope

[War Machine Dawg]

Nice pick from Collins to get the last out. Sexton has plenty of pitches left at this rate. *knock on wood.

Yep, that was a good play from E5. Gotta give him credit when he earns it.

[War Machine Dawg]

Any word on Alexander?

Someone said Bama series for both he and Robson last night, but no idea how true it is.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Pitches through 6

Sexton - 68
Lange - 68

Each could go 9

[msstate7]

Someone said Bama series for both he and Robson last night, but no idea how true it is.
That'd be a good series to get him back. Probably gonna be low scoring series with defense at a premium

[msstate7]

Robson returning will make Cohen make an interesting decision. Mangum has to play. Either rooker or Kruger will have to sit

[Bucky Dog]

I didn't realize we had lost 9 straight series to LSU! Damnit, let's win this one!!!

[War Machine Dawg]

I didn't realize we had lost 9 straight series to LSU! Damnit, let's win this one!!!

That can't be right. Thought we took two a couple of years ago when we punked out Katz.

[msstate7]

Not sure why we're swinging early in counts.

[War Machine Dawg]

2-0 Dawgs. Stretch time!!

[JohnnyQuid]

I'd almost skip our at bats right now if we could give them a 9 out inning

[msstate7]

That can't be right. Thought we took two a couple of years ago when we punked out Katz.

Salvaged sunday

[BeardoMSU]

I'd almost skip our at bats right now if we could give them a 9 out inning

Indeed, lol.

[Brando]

Pilkington starting tom?

[JohnnyQuid]

Pilkington starting tom?

TBD per Jim. don't get ahead of things

[msstate7]

No matter how this turns out, sexton has been aces tonight when we needed a big, inning-eating start

[msstate7]

Pilkington starting tom?

I bet it's Houston... Just a guess

[JohnnyQuid]

man sexton is pumping the ****ing zone. that shit will win u a ton of games

[War Machine Dawg]

No matter how this turns out, sexton has been aces tonight when we needed a big, inning-eating start

We really didn't get into the pen last night, tho. Only Rigby and Hump.

[Saltydog]

dingers. That keeps lingering in the back of my mind.

[Brando]

We really didn't get into the pen last night, tho. Only Rigby and Hump.

If it comes down to it, do we bring Hum back into it tonight to go from slow ball from Sexton to gas from Hump to close it out?

[msstate7]

We really didn't get into the pen last night, tho. Only Rigby and Hump.

I'm just talking about we've really been using the pen a lot lately. No real deep starts of late

[JohnnyQuid]

6 mo outs. leggo

[msstate7]

dingers. That keeps lingering in the back of my mind.

Don't you talk one up haha

[War Machine Dawg]

Sexton rolling. 82 pitches so far. 2-0 Dawgs after 7. I'd kill for 3 more runs here.

[Brando]

dingers. That keeps lingering in the back of my mind.

http://www.troll.me/images/matlock-wants-you/you-shut-your-mouth.jpg

[JohnnyQuid]

dingers. That keeps lingering in the back of my mind.

keep that shit to yourself. ha

[msstate7]

Sexton has been hurting lsu with offspeed. Might be a good idea to start whoever can throw offspeed for strikes tomorrow

[Bucky Dog]

That can't be right. Thought we took two a couple of years ago when we punked out Katz.

Yeah I couldn't believe it either but that's what the TV guys said.

[War Machine Dawg]

http://www.troll.me/images/matlock-wants-you/you-shut-your-mouth.jpg

Lemme help ya out...
http://www.troll.me/images/matlock-wants-you/you-shut-your-mouth.jpg

[msstate7]

Stovall has seen 3 pitches.

[War Machine Dawg]

Dammit Stovall!!!! How many pitches has he seen tonight? 3? Can't be more than 5.

[CadaverDawg]

Hit the ball on the ground Stovall. You ain't hitting a bomb, so use your speed. And quit swinging at the first pitch. You're hitting like .200

[Brando]

Lemme help ya out...
http://www.troll.me/images/matlock-wants-you/you-shut-your-mouth.jpg

What the hell did I do?

[msstate7]

Dammit Stovall!!!! How many pitches has he seen tonight? 3? Can't be more than 5.
3 1st pitch fly outs

[BulldogBear]

Jim just called them the LSU "Trigers," or was it perhaps... "Trygers?"

[JohnnyQuid]

mangum mother****ersssssss.

[CadaverDawg]

Yes, Mangum!

[JohnnyQuid]

put the ball in play kruger

[War Machine Dawg]

Triple from Magnum PI. C'mon, Kruger. Need this run!

[msstate7]

Hit the ball on the ground Stovall. You ain't hitting a bomb, so use your speed. And quit swinging at the first pitch. You're hitting like .200

He had a big hit last night by being patient and finally driving his pitch... He has to be more patient

[Bucky Dog]

Get him home Kruger!! Outfield

[Harrydawg]

Mangum = baller

[War Machine Dawg]

What the hell did I do?

Nothing. Your image didn't post. Then when I quoted it, it worked. Weird.

[Brando]

Nothing. Your image didn't post. Then when I quoted it, it worked. Weird.

oh ok. My bad boss...

[msstate7]

Wish they would've caught that

[War Machine Dawg]

Juuuuuust out of play. Could be a big break. C'mon, Kruger. Make 'em pay.

[dawgoneyall]

That was exactly how you look then catch the third baseball coach for the go sign by Mangum

[Saltydog]

NT

[msstate7]

Will they pitch to Lowe?

[War Machine Dawg]

Dammit, Kruger chased a ball. 2 away, Mangum at 3B. Need a 2 out hit, Lowe.

[JohnnyQuid]

terrible kruger. put the ****ing ball in play. leggo nate be the guy

[BulldogBear]

Nothing. Your image didn't post. Then when I quoted it, it worked. Weird.

It was funny. It kind of came across as "Shut up!" .... "No, you Shut up!"

I was waiting to for some one to say, "I'm Spinner."

[CadaverDawg]

Gotta be more disciplined Kruger. Gotta get him in there.

[msstate7]

They're seriously pitching to em?

[Brando]

We swing at more balls than any other team i have ever saw.

[War Machine Dawg]

Damn, hanging breaker and Lowe took it. Shoulda put that one in the seats.

[JohnnyQuid]

****. well whatever Austin all on u mane

[BulldogBear]

C'mon Lowe!

[Dawgowar]

We swing at more balls than any other team i have ever saw.

Just as long as we don't fondle them. That would be creepy.

[msstate7]

That was good pitching

[War Machine Dawg]

Backwards K for Lowe and Lange out of trouble. Mangum stranded at 3B. 2-0 Dawgs headed B8.

[BulldogBear]

Just as long as we don't fondle them. That would be creepy.

Take that to the restroom fellas

[JohnnyQuid]

the dreaded 8th. I feel confident Tho. sexton bout to go 1-2-3

[CadaverDawg]

I hope that run we left at 3rd doesn't come back to haunt us

[Brando]

Lange mean mugging the dugout when he K'd Lowe...

I have never really had a problem with LSU baseball, mainly cause my Dad is a big fan, but they are some whiney little bitches. One of those twins was complaining earlier cause Lowe was "taking up" too much of the bag.

[JohnnyQuid]

left side of our infield is so bad. god almighty

[War Machine Dawg]

Damn. Leadoff hit.

[CadaverDawg]

Damn, why would you throw such a meat 0-2 pitch, Austin?

[msstate7]

left side of our infield is so bad. god almighty

No range

[dawgoneyall]

Something has to be done there.

[Saltydog]

upper classmen in that spot and the hit allows the lead off runner on base. You have to know you can't keep these guys at bay all night.

[War Machine Dawg]

Couldn't catch all of that, but Manieri definitely dropped the F bomb there.

[msstate7]

Damn sexton

[War Machine Dawg]

And now a HBP. He shouldn't be gassed only 88 pitches. Please don't State this up!

[msstate7]

Might need to go rigby

[CadaverDawg]

Shit, we're about to blow the game right here. Shit shit shit

[War Machine Dawg]

Brown and Houston warming up. Shit, now I'm nervous.

[Saltydog]

nt

[msstate7]

Bunt coming... Probably

[Brando]

We will see retaliation for that one... Bet it... Lange will put one in someones back tonight...

[War Machine Dawg]

Swinging bunt, but now there's no DP.

[msstate7]

Don't like this

[War Machine Dawg]

Sexton done. Here comes Gas Can Brown. Holy shit!

[JohnnyQuid]

I just wouldn't pull sexton here. don't like it..hope I'm wrong

[Brando]

Holy Shit im nervous now...

[rcsteph1]

Bad spot to be in now

[Bucky Dog]

Just get this guy out. I will take a sac fly out even

[War Machine Dawg]

I just wouldn't pull sexton here. don't like it..hope I'm wrong

I wouldn't either. He's gotten us this far. Other than the HBP, he hasn't really done anything too wrong this inning. E5 Collins having no range hurt him on the leadoff guy.

[Saltydog]

haunt us tonight. SMH!!!!!

[War Machine Dawg]

Just get this guy out. I will take a sac fly out even

Trading one run for an out wouldn't be a bad idea. And you called it.

[Brando]

No pass balls here or easy runs... Make them give up an out to get a run...

[Bucky Dog]

Now get this out and DB did his job.

[Brando]

Ill take it...

[War Machine Dawg]

C'mon, DB. Don't puss out here. Throw ****ing strikes and make 'em earn it.

[msstate7]

Brown with some extra velocity... Good job

[War Machine Dawg]

Popup to get out of it! Way to go, DB! 2-1 Dawgs after 8. Let's go get a couple runs.

[Bucky Dog]

Great job DBrown. Clutch!! Now let's get that run back right here.

[starkvegasdawg]

Second and third one out and only give up one is good work. That could have been bad.

[Brando]

Excellent job right there... Now we need to answer their run and knock the wind back out of them...
