9th man up

[I seen it dawg]

Can't keep firing breaking balls every single pitch. I don't care if that is his best pitch. Got to mix in a fastball at some point.

[maroonmania]

Oh yes, in grand MState style.

Scored 4 runs with only 1 hit I believe.

[I seen it dawg]

Gotta go get smith

No he's a closer. He has to pitch through this.

[I seen it dawg]

On a Saturday night in late April he is gonna be in this same spot.

[I seen it dawg]

Throw ****ing strikes with the fastball goddammit.

[maroonmania]

No he's a closer. He has to pitch through this.

Yep, its not like we have anyone else we have any more faith in at this point.

[I seen it dawg]

Got out of it. 9-9 to B9.

Now they have to get 27 outs. Let's see if they can.

[maroonmania]

Now that was a freakin' ridiculous.

[msstate7]

Yep, its not like we have anyone else we have any more faith in at this point.

Not sure why we pulled jolly earlier.

[I seen it dawg]

Yep, its not like we have anyone else we have any more faith in at this point.

And he's a senior established guy.

[msstate7]

Come on Poole

[maroonmania]

The issue now is if we don't score here how long do you pitch Smith? Who else do we have left?

[msstate7]

This kid is making us look really bad

[I seen it dawg]

Not sure why we pulled jolly earlier.



Because it's a process. Guys have to pitch now to find out if we can use them on a consistent basis.

Whoever it takes. I have zero confidence we beat TT

You pull smith. Go to someone else. Got to find guys that can pound the zone and get outs

[I seen it dawg]

It's because he can pitch.

[msstate7]

Pedro Martinez vs a little league team... that's what that half inning looked like.

[maroonwhitedawg3ddd]

Welp here we go again JEEZ!! That 9th inning just sucked!!

[maroonmania]

Not that it likely would have mattered but that was NOT strike 3.

[msstate7]

Om sweeps top 10 team. Lord willing, we don't lose to 300ish rpi directional Illinois school.

Yea, and its amazing how we arrived to this point. We have a 4 run lead with bases loaded and nobody out and can't score and then they turn around the next half inning and score 4 with only a single to show for it. We had to work hard as a team to get this to a tie game.

[msstate7]

Blake issues lead off walk, but eh, it's a process

[maroonwhitedawg3ddd]

Pull his 17ing ass !!!

[maroonmania]

How many ****** more can we walk!

[msstate7]

Pull his 17ing ass !!!

Nah, he's looking great. Bout to be their 2nd look at him

[I seen it dawg]

Blake issues lead off walk, but eh, it's a process

I said not to run him back out there genius

[msstate7]

Tattooed that ball... right at rooker. Thank God, smith out

[maroonmania]

Nah, he's looking great. Bout to be their 2nd look at him

Who do we go to Rigby?

[maroonwhitedawg3ddd]

Nah, he's looking great. Bout to be their 2nd look at him

LOL that was funny as hell right there!!

[msstate7]

Spencer price in... rigby unavailable?

[maroonwhitedawg3ddd]

His trot to the mound didn't look very promising! Looked Scared Shitless!

[hailstate17]

For whatever reason Cannizzaro decided to pitch him 2 innings last night up 8-2

[maroonmania]

Game is sickening thinking that all Smith had to do was make about a 15 foot throw to home plate and the game is basically over.

[msstate7]

Why even pitch to him? Best hitter

[msstate7]

Kid delivered

[HoopsDawg]

Looks like it's cyr and rigby vs Tech.

Friday relievers can't go an inning?

[I seen it dawg]

How bout Price. Find out of guys can pitch in games. That's why you run Price in. It's a process.

[maroonmania]

What about Breaux? Has he slid way down the list of pitching options?

[msstate7]

How bout Price. Find out of guys can pitch in games. That's why you run Price in. It's a process.

Kid looked good. Not sure why we pitched to their best hitter with base open though

[maroonmania]

Should be 3-0 to Stovall.

[msstate7]

Not impressed

[maroonmania]

Doesn't look like we be scoring anytime soon on this guy.

[maroonmania]

Well Mangum looks even more willing to swing at bad pitches than last year. If I was a pitcher I don't think I would ever throw him a pitch in the zone.

[msstate7]

Doesn't look like we be scoring anytime soon on this guy.

Need walks and errors... that's what fuels our offense

[Activated Alpha]

If we even win this game I'm not impressed by their shit showing performance today

[msstate7]

Ball to left side and both guys spectating

[maroonwhitedawg3ddd]

Kid delivered

Yep sure as hell did!

[msstate7]

Good job, price

[msstate7]

Alexander
Gridley
Rooker

Do something!

[I seen it dawg]

Good job, price

Found out he will come in and compete. Process

[msstate7]

Nolan Ryan is finally tired

[maroonmania]

Rooker missed a fat pitch there.

[msstate7]

Rooker delivers. Thank God

[maroonwhitedawg3ddd]

If we don't win this game we might as well forfeit the rest i mean 2 men on base no outs cmon guys get it done!!

[maroonmania]

Well that averts disaster but still a very concerning performance.

[Activated Alpha]

Well I'll eat my crow. Didn't think we would come back from 5 down, but still very concerned with our performance today.

[maroonwhitedawg3ddd]

Good win ! What a roller coaster ride of emotions. Went from looking like gonna be a 1-3 start to now a chance to go 3-1 this weekend ! HAILYES

[msstate7]

Hope Skelton or Bragg get a shot at 3b in this game... don't care which one of left side sits down. I wanna get some pop in the lineup.

[BeardoMSU]

Thank Christ, lol....

Now lets go get TT.

Ohhhhh shit no what about Alexander? He can't come out...

[msstate7]

Ohhhhh shit no what about Alexander? He can't come out...

We've gotta find more slugging

[I seen it dawg]

We've gotta find more slugging

10 runs ain't bad...

[msstate7]

10 runs ain't bad...

No, it isn't... want more gap power though. Need some guys that can get to 2b more

[msstate7]

What's lineup and first pitch?

[Mjoelner34]

We've gotta find more slugging

Start with Marrero. He's 0 for the season.

[I seen it dawg]

No, it isn't... want more gap power though. Need some guys that can get to 2b more though

Process is important isn't it. Need to find guys. Which means guys have to get chances to succeed or fail. Important to not go off the deep end over 3 ABs or 1 inning.

[tcdog70]

Ohhhhh shit no what about Alexander? He can't come out...

Why would anyone want 7 out of the game. He is a player.
