[The Federalist Engineer]

Experimenting continues but would like to see Jordan Anderson out there - me and Jim Ellis also want Jordan Westburg playing

[Coach34]

A lot of people want to see Westburg get some starts

If it doesn’t happen by this weekend , just go ahead and hope Belmont can hit .230 and have a key a hit or 2 in sec play..

Thanks Coach.

[HoopsDawg]

Come on Gilbert. Get a hit or two.

[msstate7]

Starting pitcher?

C'mon 7, look at the OP.

[msstate7]

C'mon 7, look at the OP.

Did not notice it on right. My bad

Maybe Belmont7 was hoping it was a typo like me, Neff gives me that Plumlee in Oxford feeling

Hope Neff proves me wrong

Interesting we keep going back to him. Henderson must feel he is better than he has shown

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Black on black looks like a softball uniform to me.

[msstate7]

Not a fan myself

[Dawg61]

What the hell are we wearing

[msstate7]

Neff impressive

[Bulldog1]

What the hell are we wearing

I hate these ugly uniforms... A disgrace to our university. I like when we wear grey in sports, but these black unis are butt ugly in every sport!

[msstate7]

Neff might be coming round

[msstate7]

Come on Gilbert. Get a hit or two.

He heard you

[Bulldog1]

Nice to see Gilbert get a hit.

[Ari Gold]

LA is now hitting his weight .
Too bad he isn’t a fat ass...

[Dawg61]

It's the black pants that are hideous. Be one thing if they were black pinstripes but full on black pants looks very softballish.

[Bulldog1]

I’m not crazy about the solid black, like you. Kind of like the black jerseys in basketball (those are just hideous all around, IMO)

[msstate7]

LA is now hitting his weight .
Too bad he isn’t a fat ass...
K rate now around 17%
Walk rate still over 12%
BABIP is under .240

Definitely some bad luck

That’s funny stuff right there.

[msstate7]

Not sure Jake will ever make mlb, but he is one hell of a college hitter

[Bulldog1]

Not sure Jake will ever make mlb, but he is one hell of a college hitter

Sure is. His career avg here has to be about .400, probably higher.

[Bulldog1]

Little bit off the plate, ump.

[TNDawg35]

Foscue just got robbed right there! No way that's a strike...

[maroonmania]

The strike zone for this home plate ump is beyond ridiculous.

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

those were some of the worst strike calls I've seen in a while. Announcer had to catch himself the first time, then sounded straight up confused the next. I wish we'd just use a computer generated strike zone already

[Bully13]

Sure is. His career avg here has to be about .400, probably higher.

not enough for the bigs. gotta get some power or speed to steal bases. don't see it happening. great outfielder, great % hitter, but he's missing power and / or speed.

[Bulldog1]

Oh, definitely. I wasn’t saying he’s going to the majors or anything, just reiterating what 7 said.

[parabrave]

Hey FB got a hit. Let's bunt him over to second.

[BuckyIsAB****]

LA looks better at the plate this year.

Hate me if you want

[BuckyIsAB****]

I just started watching.

Its no coincidence that we aint scored but that Gilbert, and Mac are back in the order

[maroonmania]

I think we are really going to struggle to score runs in the SEC this year.

[msstate7]

He is going oppo more this season. His first AB was very good even though it was out. He drove a ball up and away oppo... last season, he tried to pull that and missed

[Saltydog]

NT

[msstate7]

I think we are really going to struggle to score runs in the SEC this year.

The good news is our pitching is really coming on. This is the 5th game in a row where we are forcing teams to play a low scoring, defensive game. I do not think it is a fluke either... we have some arms

[maroonmania]

Given our hitting struggles tonight we should have bunted the man over with nobody out.

[maroonmania]

Given our hitting struggles tonight we should have bunted the man over with nobody out.

And if we had it would b 1-0 now.

[Bulldog1]

LA hitting good tonight.. Keep it up!

[Red Sox Dawg]

Anybody having trouble with ESPN 3? It’s terrible, constantly freezing and unwatchable. Waste of time and resources.

[maroonmania]

Can't we pinch hit for MacNamee here?

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

The guys consistantly missed high for two straight batter and MacNamee immediately swings at the first two pitches letter high

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

I can't believe they left this guy in after Hatcher.

[msstate7]

Although those 4 pitches were not even close, happy for macnamee. Need him to get going like he finished last season

[maroonmania]

Let's get Rowdey!!!

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Maybe that's why they left the other dude in. This guy let 4-eyes** hit a grand slam first pitch

[Dawg61]

Rowdey

[Red Sox Dawg]

Rowdey Jordan just made history.

[bostondawg]

This team has so much young talent.

[Bulldog1]

Just like that, it’s 5-0.

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

This team has so much young talent.

We need to remember that come SEC play.

[maroonmania]

Really nice play by Foscue at 3rd base.

[msstate7]

Really nice play by Foscue at 3rd base.

Very nice

[BiscuitEater]

Who is #18 pitching for us?

[msstate7]

Who is #18 pitching for us?
James

[BuckyIsAB****]

Rowdy Jordan is destined to be good. A name like Rowdy Jordan playing in left field in front of the lounge at dudy noble. Thats destiny

[The Federalist Engineer]

Cannizzaros field position player class could be epic

How many were Cohen croots before Cann?

[msstate7]

Remember when NMSU was score a bunch of runs on us? Lol

[tcdog70]

not enough for the bigs. gotta get some power or speed to steal bases. don't see it happening. great outfielder, great % hitter, but he's missing power and / or speed.

Damn wonder how BRETT BUTLER ever made the Show

[Todd4State]

Not many. I think it's Tanner Allen and that's it.

The problem with this particular class is there were essentially no high school pitchers in it.

[Todd4State]

I was definitely concerned just because our offense isn't going to score a ton of runs this year. Fortunately our pitching has been stepping up for the most part since Sext Gate. This could have very easily been another McNeese State type game but fortunately that didn't happen and our pitching actually seems to be improving.

I was concerned too. For marsh and neff to step up like this is a great sign.

[msumudcat]

Im still convinced Ed Cook makes out our line-up

Get in there!

[Homedawg]

I think you got it backwards. Cann got Allen and the rest were committed to Cohen.

[Ari Gold]

Good night by Belmont.
Let’s get above that Mendoza Line now..

[Todd4State]

I did. I read the question incorrectly. I meant Allen is the only Cann recruit.

[msstate7]

.224

[Bulldog1]

.224

Almost where we want it. Keep it up, LA. I’m rooting for ya!

[tcdog70]

maybe he has figured out oppo is good. You can't pull a hard breaking slider.

[msstate7]

He got 2 hits, but I thought his best 2 ABs did not result in a hit. The 2 pitches up and out away from him he drove to track in RF. Great sign

[Bully13]

this was an impressive mid week series. I went and gazed at what they'd done prior to arriving in Vegas and this team was pretty good YTD. will be interesting to see how they do at bamer this weekend.

[Coach34]

Glad to see FoamBat get a couple- he needs all he can get before SEC play begins

[tcdog70]

i believe that is what is called a backhanded compliment
