88.1 ip 86 h 42 er 26 bb 92 k
Era = 4.28
Whip = 1.27
K9 = 9.37

Murray - R (of) = .293/.396/.553
Harris - R (if/of) = .277/.436/.451

Those are their 3 guys with an ops over .800

ETA... worth noting that pilk was unhittable in OOC games. Hopefully that continues Friday

[ShotgunDawg]

Walker and Murray are both hurt and may not play.

Irvin is solid. If he's on, we'll struggle to score.

Yes. Murray is Kyler Murray

[Bulldog1]

Obviously- Pilk needs to give us his best outing of the year. I hope he's on; I really hope our bats are hot.

[msstate7]

Walker and Murray are both hurt and may not play.

Irvin is solid. If he's on, we'll struggle to score.

Yes. Murray is Kyler Murray

Walker is Steele walker btw... I listed him by first name. Would be huge if they are missing top 2 ops guys

[BuckyIsAB****]

Damn those are some hellacious stats for the OU pitcher

[CadaverDawg]

Is Irvin a RHP or LHP? Wouldn't we prefer RHP's to keep Jake on the left side?

[msstate7]

Is Irvin a RHP or LHP? Wouldn't we prefer RHP's to keep Jake on the left side?
RH

[HoopsDawg]

Is Irvin a RHP or LHP? Wouldn't we prefer RHP's to keep Jake on the left side?

Yes and with Westburg out, Hatcher will be our DH.

[Bulldog1]

Yes and with Westburg out, Hatcher will be our DH.

When will Westburg be back? I thought I heard Hendo say he'd be back in time for the regional.

[HoopsDawg]

When will Westburg be back? I thought I heard Hendo say he'd be back in time for the regional.

He said today, that he hasn't been 100% since UF. I think it's safe to assume Foscue will be at 3B with Hatcher as DH.

[HoopsDawg]

Walker is Steele walker btw... I listed him by first name. Would be huge if they are missing top 2 ops guys

Both guys are expected to play. We need to be really smart/careful pitching to Steele Walker. He's the one guy you can't let beat you.

[Bulldog1]

He said today, that he hasn't been 100% since UF. I think it's safe to assume Foscue will be at 3B with Hatcher as DH.

Well. Yeah that means Hatcher will more than likely be DH.

[msstate7]

Both guys are expected to play. We need to be really smart/careful pitching to Steele Walker. He's the one guy you can't let beat you.

Buzz kill

[The Federalist Engineer]

OUs soft underbelly is that after Irvin they don't have much, that's why they are a #3 seed.

With Irvin in the game they are like a #1 seed.

I say we walk Steel 4/5 times and call it a day. But Pilk is liable to have bases loaded in the first inning when facing Walker in the first. He has to be crisp to manage his Walker ABs

[BB30]

If pilk can have a big day I like where we are at. Should have an excellent shot at winning the first two. Always fun playing some quality teams we haven’t seen in a while. Would be big for the program to make another super despite the awkward season. These guys deserve a pay on the back overcoming all of the coaching issues.

You can’t just walk Steele because Kyler Murray may be the most talented player in America. He is raw, but can absolutely hurt you

[confucius say]

You can’t just walk Steele because Kyler Murray may be the most talented player in America. He is raw, but can absolutely hurt you

A guy who may be the most talented baseball player in America hit .290? And is playing college baseball?

I haven't seen the guy play, but if that is true OK must not develop players worth crap.

[msstate7]

Yeah shotgun can have Murray... give me mize

[Pit Bull]

Is Mike Martin retiring after this year?

[ShotgunDawg]

Yeah shotgun can have Murray... give me mize

Absolutely. Mize a much better player as are many others, but Kyler hasn't played a ton of baseball over the past 3 years & has enormous tools.

I said "talented", not best. He's a wild card with the ceiling of Andrew McCutchen

[ShotgunDawg]

A guy who may be the most talented baseball player in America hit .290? And is playing college baseball?

I haven't seen the guy play, but if that is true OK must not develop players worth crap.

He hasn't played much due to football. Think of him as a freshman developmentally.

[Bulldog1]

I'd think about pitching Small Friday. I really hope Pilk has his good stuff- we don't need to lose the first game.

[basedog]

Isn't Fsu park a hitters park with short fences especially RF?

[Bulldog1]

Anybody know if Walker and Murray will play tomorrow?

[The Federalist Engineer]

Anybody know if Walker and Murray will play tomorrow?

Norman OK paper says they are both day to day. They not officially OUT but they are both considered inside of the recovery period for their respective injuries

[The Federalist Engineer]

You can?t just walk Steele because Kyler Murray may be the most talented player in America. He is raw, but can absolutely hurt you

Com'on man, that's just MLB obsession with ceilings. What is he today? He's 290 in the big 12 conference that's like 230 in the SEC. In-conference, Murray only hit 260.

[Hambone]

Yes, Mike Martin is retiring after this year.

Lineup

[KOdawg1]

Really wish Westburg was healthy. 1-6 is good, but 7-9 are automatic outs most of the time. Maybe they'll prove me wrong today.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Is Gilbert hurt? What the Heck?

[msstate7]

Is Gilbert hurt? What the Heck?

He's been really struggling.

[Bulldog1]

He's been really struggling.

Still rather him start than Skelton.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Still rather him start than Skelton.

Wut? My boy Gilbert is hitting 260 and Skelton is hitting 220....against talented pitchers like Irvin, Skelton is hitting 140. Com'on coach!

My other permanent complaint is that Anderson is not playing and getting development. I hope he does not take his talents to Chipolla because MSU will rather play anybody (Tanner Poole and other non-Hot hitters) but him.

Don't care either way, but Skelton is hitting .250 in last 7 games. Gilbert has struck out 6 of last 19 AB.

[preachermatt83]

Gilbert is one of the best defensive catchers in America and he may not hit well but neither does Skelton.

[msstate7]

Gilbert is one of the best defensive catchers in America and he may not hit well but neither does Skelton.

One of best defensive in America? Wow, then he will be drafted high, right? I think he is very good at throwing runners out, but no where near elite at blocking pitches. To be fair, neither is Skelton

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Skelton is slower than my 47 year old wife if he does get on base.

[MarketingBully]

One of best defensive in America? Wow, then he will be drafted high, right? I think he is very good at throwing runners out, but no where near elite at blocking pitches. To be fair, neither is Skelton

He’s an MLB all star defensively compared to Skelton and that’s all that matters.

[I seen it dawg]

Gilbert is one of the best defensive catchers in America and he may not hit well but neither does Skelton.

Hahahaha Gilbert best defensive???? Apparently you haven't watched him not block balls and work a strike zone

[Dawg61]

Come on Pilk!!

[Dawg61]

Walker and Murray not starting for Ok is huge. Both are top 60 MLB draft prospects.

[msstate7]

Pilk loves to throw a bunch of pitches

[HoopsDawg]

3 first pitch balls for Pilk.

[Dawg61]

Pilk not even looking at the runner on 2b last two pitches so he attempts to steal 3rd but fouled off

[HoopsDawg]

Walker and Murray not starting for Ok is huge. Both are top 60 MLB draft prospects.

Oh it's massive. This is a mediocre team w/o those 2 guys in the 3 and 4 hole.

[Bulldog1]

Off to a great start**

[Percho]

Does this Ump have a tight strike zone?

[KOdawg1]

We're in trouble. Pilk doesnn't have it.

[VandelayIndustries]

Thanks Pilk, great start

[I seen it dawg]

We look ready to be done

[HoopsDawg]

Pilk just doesn't look comfortable.

[Cooterpoot]

Pilk has nothing today. And he's not throwing his curve at all.

[Percho]

I don't think it is Pilk's fault.

[Dawg61]

Okl gets a rbi single between 3b/SS hole, 2 on Pilk at 20 pitches 1 out. 1-0 Okl.

[BeardoMSU]

We're in trouble. Pilk doesnn't have it.

It doesn't help that the ump is mind ****in' him with his bullshit zone.

[Cooterpoot]

Our pitching will improve exponentially once Henderson is gone.

[Dawg61]

Does this Ump have a tight strike zone?

I think he does. Two borderline pitches he called balls. Oklahoma is being smart and taking/fouling a lot of pitches. It's a really hot day and Pilk is already struggling after 22 pitches.

[Bulldog1]

We ain't winning.

[bostondawg]

Trying to remember the last time Pilk looked like his draft grade.

https://m.popkey.co/53257f/0DmrW.gif

[msstate7]

I don't think it is Pilk's fault.

Who is at fault?

[MadDawg]

How good is Samford?

[msstate7]

Trying to remember the last time Pilk looked like his draft grade.

https://m.popkey.co/53257f/0DmrW.gif

His draft stock is crashing

[Dawg61]

Stovall not getting over for that steal ****ed us. Dude woulda been out by a step. That totally changes the inning.

[I seen it dawg]

Get ahead of hitters ****

[MarketingBully]

Pilk has to be the most disappointing player we had this year.

[Anonymous]

Should have pulled him on the mound visit, why dig a bigger hole?

[Percho]

Pilk struck out two batters the Ump would not call out.

[ShotgunDawg]

No player has regressed more in the past year than Pilkington.

[VandelayIndustries]

WOW

[I seen it dawg]

Hahahahahaha nice inning

[MarketingBully]

Holy shit who backed up that throw home?

[Cooterpoot]

Name the coach today.....

[VandelayIndustries]

Way to implode

[Dawg61]

4-0 Oklahoma as we throw the ball around the infield. 2 outs 28 pitches

[MarketingBully]

Pilk struck out two batters the Ump would not call out.

I think he rather be hunting.

[Bulldog1]

Get Pilk out. Pathetic

[Cooterpoot]

Our defense is garbage too

[KOdawg1]

At least there's no one on base...

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Clown car is back. Being driven by our shitty ace.

[bostondawg]

This is what happens when your pitcher insists on extending defensive innings unnecessarily.

[HoopsDawg]

All these guys batting .208 are barreling up this 88 mph heat.

[mparkerfd20]

Updated prediction: 2 and Q and not surprised

[MarketingBully]

The pitcher has to back up that play at home and Pilk was just loafing around. No way should two runs of scored on that miss home.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Pilk is Billingsley with Hype, this sucks.

welcome to the losers bracket, thanks Pilk

[VandelayIndustries]

Pilk going for a 50 pitch inning

[Dawg61]

34 pitches after a walk

[I seen it dawg]

Straight *****

[Percho]

Who is at fault?

There is nothing wrong in calling a breaking ball the first time around. There is nothing wrong in playing the catcher who can throw out runners. Between the ump and coach Pilk had been put in a very bad position. IMO.

[CadaverDawg]

Get here soon, Schloss. This is a shit show

[LC Dawg]

2 run groundout to 1st. Really ****ing nice playing for a 2 seed.

[ShotgunDawg]

I'm so glad we didn't create a coaching distraction

[Cooterpoot]

This is what happens when your pitcher insists on extending defensive innings unnecessarily.

Yeah, the failure to cover and bad throw had nothing to do with it.

[Dawg61]

**** this umpire

[CadaverDawg]

Ump ain't budging in the inside corner

[JacktownBulldog16]

Get ahead of hitters ****

Preach

[msstate7]

All these guys batting .208 are barreling up this 88 mph heat.

There's pilk's issue. He has no velocity on his fastball. I was ripped all season for pointing out the obvious... pilk is not very good

[MarketingBully]

I'm so glad we didn't create a coaching distraction

Lol good one.

[ShotgunDawg]

Pilk probably drank a case a beer last night and it's too early.

[Percho]

These announcers get it.

Ya'll don't.

[I seen it dawg]

****ing bullshit not ready to play ****kng inning.

[Cooterpoot]

Our pitching coach is too stupid to change his approach based on what the ump is calling

[msstate7]

I'm so glad we didn't create a coaching distraction

Lol

[Dawg61]

Well let's see if the heat messes up the Okl pitcher now. That was brutal. 38 pitches. 4-0 Oklahoma headed to B1.

[HoopsDawg]

Man oh man, 40 pitch inning.

[MarketingBully]

Gee that rest from losing that first game in the tournament last week really helped us out.

[preachermatt83]

Pilk is a joke... so is our pitching coach.

[KOdawg1]

I said the other day that we had one good starter and another who used to be good but isn't anymore. People disagreed with me. Disagree now?

[CadaverDawg]

Pilk burning an 88 mph fastball these days? Good grief, that's not Ace stuff

[Bulldog1]

If we ain't gonna play no better than this we should've just declined the invite. Ughh. Pilk is awful.

[The Federalist Engineer]

There's pilk's issue. He has no velocity on his fastball. I was ripped all season for pointing out the obvious... pilk is not very good

What round will he be drafted? I am afraid we might be stuck with this "Ace" for another season. WTF

[Dawg61]

I'm so glad we didn't create a coaching distraction

You're right Shotgun. Naming Schloss coach would have magically helped Pilk not suck that inning.

[msstate7]

There is nothing wrong in calling a breaking ball the first time around. There is nothing wrong in playing the catcher who can throw out runners. Between the ump and coach Pilk had been put in a very bad position. IMO.

Poor pilk... it's everyone's fault but the one throwing the pitches

[MarketingBully]

These announcers get it.

Ya'll don't.

But you don’t keep calling the same shit that the ump called balls and expect a different result. You adjust to how the ump is calling it.

[Cooterpoot]

There's pilk's issue. He has no velocity on his fastball. I was ripped all season for pointing out the obvious... pilk is not very good

He's hitting 92. His coach is calling 75% fastballs. In a spot the ump isn't giving. Henderson is a damn joke. I've been saying it since he got here. He has no interest in being a coach. His fire has been gone for a few years.

[HoopsDawg]

There's pilk's issue. He has no velocity on his fastball. I was ripped all season for pointing out the obvious... pilk is not very good

This OU Guy is throwing 92.

[coastratdog]

Stovall not getting over for that steal ****ed us. Dude woulda been out by a step. That totally changes the inning.

Catcher throws it on the other side of the plate and runner is out

[Percho]

But you don’t keep calling the same shit that the ump called balls and expect a different result. You adjust to how the ump is calling it.

Is that not on the Coach calling the pitches and not the pitcher?

[Dawg61]

Mangum takes a walk. Get that pitch count up in this heat.

[Bulldog1]

Magnum walks. Let's score here.

[msstate7]

Jake with a walk. Wow... we might get back in this

[MarketingBully]

This ump has a teeny strike zone. Just don’t swing and sit dead red fastball and we can come back.

[VandelayIndustries]

Let's go, Love Rowdey

[Dawg61]

Rowdey single, 1st n 3rd no outs

[ShotgunDawg]

You're right Shotgun. Naming Schloss coach would have magically helped Pilk not suck that inning.

Wouldn't have hurt. As I said, the entire distraction issue was complete bullshit made up

[msstate7]

This OU Guy is throwing 92.

Jim said 94 on pitch he K'd Allen

[Dawg61]

Allen K's

[I seen it dawg]

Goddammit can't k there

[MarketingBully]

Can’t be aggressive with this ump’s teeny strike zone.

[Dawg61]

Wouldn't have hurt. As I said, the entire distraction issue was complete bullshit made up

You saying it doesn't make it correct. You don't name the next coach the day before the regionals starts. Nobody does that. Let it go brother.

[ScoobaDawg]

Come on Hunter... get this started.
That was a strike?? really.. wow

[MarketingBully]

Great job asshats...

[Bulldog1]

Lol. 1st and 3rd no outs and we ain't gonna score!

[Dawg61]

Stovall pops out. We're gonna find a way to not score after having a runner at 3rd with no outs.

[CadaverDawg]

Unreal, 1st & 3rd and we aren't going to score a run.

[msstate7]

Lol, we suck

[I seen it dawg]

Let's just get this horseshit over with and move on to next year. We weren't ready at all nor do we look like we will be.

[msstate7]

Cohen, please announce schloss right now. I need the good news

[CadaverDawg]

We look like a team that was just happy to be here. Can't believe I was looking forward to this shit

[bostondawg]

This ump should be unemployed.

[KOdawg1]

We have a bunch of midgets. Both mental and height wise.

[I seen it dawg]

Lol comical inning all around.

[msstate7]

We look like a team that was just happy to be here. Can't believe I was looking forward to this shit

I'm really a St. Louis, tenn tech, and SEMO fan haha

[MarketingBully]

What the ****.

[CadaverDawg]

We're a few dancing bears short of a circus at the plate

[Bulldog1]

We trash.

[Dawg61]

Can't believe I was looking forward to this shit

Lol I was excited too. Glutton for punishment.

[WeWonItAll(Most)]

Our ace capitulates, theirs steps up

[MarketingBully]

So we get don’t give a shit Pilk and no patience at the plate. Great.

[CadaverDawg]

Lol I was excited too. Glutton for punishment.

Yep. They don't seem interested, so I'm not sure why I am

[mstatefan91]

Those were some horrible approaches at the plate.. What were Allen and McNamee swinging at? The catcher was set up 3 feet off the plate

[Bulldog1]

We get to see Pilk throw 45 more pitches this inning. Yay!***

[MarketingBully]

Yep. They don't seem interested, so I'm not sure why I am

I think not naming a coach is a bigger distraction then naming one would be. Imagine hearing all of these rumors and being told everything and your AD publicly is acting like the search just started. Cohen, just name Schloss and be done with it. Enough of this shit.

[msstate7]

Everyone get mad at Henderson for pilk going 0-2 to 3-2 to a hit. Can't be pilk's fault

[ScoobaDawg]

and someone seriously asked what we would do if Gary made Omaha with this team. HA

[CadaverDawg]

Get Pilk's sorry ass out. 0-2 and you end up having to throw a 3-2 meatball? Some "Ace"

[HoopsDawg]

Guys hitting .128 and KP goes 3-2 count and gives up single on cheese.

[KOdawg1]

Pilk just sucks. Yeah, Gary and the ump aren't helping things, but the kid has just lost it. I hate it for him because at one time, he looked to have a bright future.

[Bulldog1]

Bust.

[HoopsDawg]

What is the team BA of today's OU lineup? Can't be higher than .250.

[Dawg61]

47 pitches after 4 outs

[MarketingBully]

Pilkington’s topped out fastball is 88. What a joke. Do these guys do any type of strength training? Isn’t Pilk like 6’2 232 and his best is 88?

[CJDAWG85]

The 3 pitches after getting ahead 0-2 were not even close. How's he a projected 1st round pick again?

[mstatefan91]

47 pitches after 4 outs

Already halfway there!

[KOdawg1]

What is the team BA of today's OU lineup? Can't be higher than .250.

They were .270 something with their two best hitters in.

[msstate7]

Dammit Henderson, why you letting pilk get hammered!

[CadaverDawg]

What is the team BA of today's OU lineup? Can't be higher than .250.

It was only .270 with their best 2 hitters....and they're both out

[HoopsDawg]

Just bring in Cole Gordon.

[CadaverDawg]

Either get him out, or concede and leave him in and save arms.

[msstate7]

Just bring in Cole Gordon.

Leave pilk out there for 150 pitches. Can't waste anyone

[Dawg61]

Mangum never learns. Tries to throw the hero ball letting the single turn into a double and no more force out. 5-0 Oklahoma the ref is about to call the fight.

[MarketingBully]

Dammit Henderson, why you letting pilk get hammered!

This is what he does. Have you not been paying attention this year?

[mstatefan91]

Ok well I don't know that I'm going to watch the rest of this

[CadaverDawg]

Leave pilk out there for 150 pitches. Can't waste anyone

What I'm thinking

[msstate7]

This is what he does. Have you not been paying attention this year?

I'm just messing with the ones that said pilk only getting hit bc of Henderson. Pilk getting pummeled bc he has very avg stuff and can't get outs consistently unless he has good control.

[Dawg61]

The 3 pitches after getting ahead 0-2 were not even close. How's he a projected 1st round pick again?

He isn't anymore. About to announce he's coming back the same time Schloss is named coach.

[MarketingBully]

Lol Pilk got his first K.

[Pit Bull]

Walker and Murray are both hurt and may not play.

Irvin is solid. If he's on, we'll struggle to score.

Yes. Murray is Kyler Murray

Seriously....who's Kyler Murray.....have absolutely never heard of him. Based on your tone....he must be good though.

[MarketingBully]

I'm just messing with the ones that said pilk only getting hit bc of Henderson. Pilk getting pummeled bc he has very avg stuff and can't get outs consistently unless he has good control.

How does a 232 lb guy have his fastball top out at 88 unless that 232 is a high concentration of fat.

[mparkerfd20]

He isn't anymore. About to announce he's coming back the same time Schloss is named coach.

Please,NO!

[Bulldog1]

Great play by Stovall.

[I seen it dawg]

That play was the anti Pilk. Damn hunter

[CadaverDawg]

He isn't anymore. About to announce he's coming back the same time Schloss is named coach.

Hope so. Maybe Schloss can revive him

[mstatefan91]

Thank you Stovall

[Dawg61]

Stovall just made a sportscenter top 10 play to save a run and get Pilk out the inning. 5-0 Oklahoma.

[MarketingBully]

Now let’s be patient at the plate and at least get a few back. I don’t think Oklahoma’s anemic lineup will continue to score. We have to be opportunistic to get back in this one.

[Bulldog1]

Leave pilk out there for 150 pitches. Can't waste anyone
So about 4 innings? Haha.

[CadaverDawg]

So about 4 innings? Haha.

3, ha

[Dawg61]

Seriously....who's Kyler Murray.....have absolutely never heard of him. Based on your tone....he must be good though.

He's Oklahoma's QB. He used to be Texas A&M's QB and we faced him his freshman year. He transferred after that year. He has the all-time Texas HS record for passing yards I believe. He's fast as ****. #36 overall baseball prospect.

[mstatefan91]

Foscue on

[magrooder]

At least our first two hitters worked the count...

[CadaverDawg]

Let's see what creative ways we can come up with to Not score this guy from second

[mstatefan91]

Alexander.... out number 1

[Dawg61]

So about 4 innings? Haha.

https://media.giphy.com/media/LrC1m7Ay3xsha/giphy.gif

[preachermatt83]

I think pilk has arm fatigue. He needs to lay off summer ball altogether and come back next year.

[I seen it dawg]

Foambat didn't work on shit during the break. Same pull off outside pitch weak fly ball.

[mstatefan91]

Foambat didn't work on shit during the break. Same pull off outside pitch weak fly ball.

Did you seriously expect him to?

[CadaverDawg]

Skelton nodding his head yes after watching a 2-0 fastball is funny to me. What were you expecting on 2-0? Maybe swing at it?

[Bulldog1]

Dang Skelton with a bomb.

[CadaverDawg]

Hahaha Skelton!!!! Home Run to the short porch!

[mstatefan91]

Skelton nodding his head yes after watching a 2-0 fastball is funny to me. What were you expecting on 2-0? Maybe swing at it?

"That's the pitch coach told me to expect.. yep there it is"

nods

[magrooder]

wow. Skelton with a blast did not see that coming

[Dawg61]

Holy shit Skelton just went oppo taco

[MarketingBully]

That’s what we needed. Glad Skelton got a bomb there.

[KOdawg1]

Dustin f**king Skelton. Wow

[HoopsDawg]

First career Homerun. Wow.

[preachermatt83]

Alright..5-2. Don't send pilk back out there.

[MarketingBully]

We scratched 2 runs off and turned the lineup over. Anything else this inning is gravy.

[CadaverDawg]

Getting Mangum in during the 1st would be big right now

[HoopsDawg]

This pitcher has a history of control issues and this ump is trash. We need to have good approaches and we can get back in this game.

[Dawg61]

That ball had crazy carry. He cleared the 30 foot fence behind the homerun wall on the complete opposite side of the field.

[MarketingBully]

How do you not at least foul that shit off. Shit.

[mstatefan91]

Quit calling us Mississippi

Mississippi State, State, MSU, Bulldogs.. Come on man

[MarketingBully]

This pitcher has a history of control issues and this ump is trash. We need to have good approaches and we can get back in this game.

Agree completely.

[Pit Bull]

Our pitching will improve exponentially once Henderson is gone.

Support for Mississippi State will improve by 1 fan when you are gone. Please go....thanks in advance.

[Dawg61]

Getting Mangum in during the 1st would be big right now

That might end up being the biggest mistake of this game besides still believing Pilk is our #1.

??????????

[mstatefan91]

Let's go Pilk

[MarketingBully]

Pilk needs to throw up a zero this inning.

[mstatefan91]

So it's a strike for for the OU pitcher but not for Pilk? Got it

[CadaverDawg]

Every single time we get a bad call (check swing, missed strike) they ALWAYS get a hit when it should have been an out. Never fails

Ha....He your dad? You mad? Henderson sucks.

Yeah the umpire crew has definitely leaned OU's way so far

[CadaverDawg]

We walked a dude with 90 K's in the first inning. Lol

Our Ace

[Dawg61]

Low 90's heat ain't shit Dave Neal. That's when we break out the grill and cook a slab of ribs and brats. Our SR vs Clemson there was a 100 degree 1 o'clock game and everyone was pounding beers in LFL.

[confucius say]

ESPN, would like to see the side camera angle after controversial check swing. Thanks.

[CadaverDawg]

Pilk just appears to have dead arm

[mstatefan91]

Pilk just appears to have dead arm

Anybody got some vitamin B12?

[mstatefan91]

70+ pitches in 3 innings.. amazing

[Dawg61]

How does a 232 lb guy have his fastball top out at 88 unless that 232 is a high concentration of fat.

Lol Pilk sucks but he ain't fat

[confucius say]

Get Ahead Of Hitters. Damn Pilk. The guy hits .148 and you're walking him on 5 pitches.

[Cooterpoot]

Pilk has thrown too much. Threw too much in the off season (national team etc) and Henderson is scared to go at hitters. Combines for high pitch counts and dead arms. Is what it is. But, we gave them 4 runs and failed to score a guy from 3rd with no outs. That's bad baseball.

[mstatefan91]

Pilk better not play summer ball if he's coming back next season

[HoopsDawg]

Just saw our football win total has been bet down from 8.5 to 8.

[confucius say]

K to end the inning. Amazing what happens when you get ahead. They whiff on an average curve ball.

I would never play for a coach that called the pitches. This isn't little league. Hell in little league I wouldn't let the coach call my pitches. How the **** does a coach think he has a better feel for calling a game than the guy actually throwing the ball? I hate micro-managing pitchers.

[confucius say]

Chip away. Long way to go.

That's BS. He pitched for Team USA then shut it down the rest of the summer. This guy for OU was on the same team. KP pitches once a week.

Cancel the season

[I seen it dawg]

Another walk the 150 8 hole with 2 outs so we can let the 9 hole get out of the way. So ready to get a new pitching coach

[mstatefan91]

Wow 3 pitch strikeout...

[HoopsDawg]

Almost every single coach calls the pitches in college baseball. LOL, I thought our fans were supposed to know baseball.

[Dawg61]

Allen leans into those last two pitches he's on 1st base. Take the bean ball if he's giving it to you. Didn't matter he got walked.

[mstatefan91]

And then 4 pitch walk

[Cooterpoot]

That's BS. He pitched for Team USA then shut it down the rest of the summer. This guy for OU was on the same team. KP pitches once a week.

And he hasn't pitched under Henderson for two years. And some of it's on Pilk too, but he threw well early in the year. His arm is dead now. If he's not injured, it's fatigue.

Then you would never play. You act like Henderson is the only one who does that...

Are you my dad? This is the type of shit my dad says lmao
