LSU game 1

[ShotgunDawg]

LSU hitter helped Gordon by swinging at 2 balls way out of the strike zone.

That’s because the spin rate on Gordon’s CB is elite.

[maroonmania]

That would have been a strike if 8 had caught it.

Should have been a strike anyway.

[VandelayIndustries]

Crap

[I seen it dawg]

Lol got to be shitting me.

[ShotgunDawg]

Damnit. Another terrible 1-2 pitch

[magrooder]

Crapin shift. Routine grounder and we outsmart ourself

[maroonmania]

Crap, that stupid shift.

[ShotgunDawg]

Cabrera scares me

[PMDawg]

This game is on Westburg

[maroonmania]

Damnit. Another terrible 1-2 pitch

Why are we pitching to the outside part of the plate with the shift on????

[smootness]

TERRIBLE job by Allen yet again. Not even on the bag trying to stretch.

GREAT QUESTION

[Lord McBuckethead]

****ing shift.

[VandelayIndustries]

Missed his spot but worked out

[ShotgunDawg]

Gordon just made some hellacious pitches vs Cabrera

[Saltydog]

I will be surprised if we hold on to this one. I have no confidence in our bp right now.

[maroonmania]

Without the shift, this game is over.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Why do we have the shift on anyway

[magrooder]

one more time good Cole

[I seen it dawg]

Great pitch call to canrera

[VandelayIndustries]

That a baby Skelton

[ShotgunDawg]

BOOM!!

[magrooder]

Burn. Skelton with the big throw.

[msstate7]

Good win

[chef dixon]

Kole Gordon

[PMDawg]

Wow. Skelton couldn't have done that last year.

[I seen it dawg]

Nice throw Skelton ****stick. Unreal we win that game

[Cloak]

Whar a damm throw. Hail State

[magrooder]

I HATE LSU

[MarketingBully]

Great win! 24-3 with Ginn tomorrow. Let’s take the series tomorrow!

[SaintDawg]

Now LSU gotta face the freak Ginn tomorrow night.

[Political Hack]

Hell of a game.

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

i like postseason Cole. He should get the call way more than regular season Cole

[Lord McBuckethead]

Good win.

[HoopsDawg]

TERRIBLE job by Allen yet again. Not even on the bag trying to stretch.

Seems like Hatcher should be the first basemen when he is in the lineup. He's a lefty, Tanner is a righty and Hatcher is about 5 inches taller.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Like everytime we call Cole out of the bullpen, better be like......we need intense focus Cole Gordon, not reg seasom gordon

[MarketingBully]

It’s really all on his curve ball. If he has that going, he mixes his pitches so well that when he gets to a 1-2 count and he can throw that he is nearly unhittable.

[HoopsDawg]

Why are we pitching to the outside part of the plate with the shift on????

Good point, plus I just don't think the data is there to make shifts like this in college baseball.

[HoopsDawg]

Not just the curve. He worked ahead and was locating his fastball. We threw our 3 best bullpen guys tonight so glad we pulled it out.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Our defense is so ordinary- I can't even remember the last double play

Good win, Allen is now concerning at the bat and as a 1st baseman

[MarketingBully]

Not just the curve. He worked ahead and was locating his fastball. We threw our 3 best bullpen guys tonight so glad we pulled it out.

I think we will be fine. I think we played a bit too tight at times tonight and we lost focus a little bit being up 6-2. I think we will light up their pitcher tomorrow.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Without the shift, this game is over.

Lemonis gotta fix this- our guys seem perpetually out of position - we gave LSU about 2 or 3 extra outs tonight, plus the errors

[Bothrops]

Muy f'ing Bien!! Vamos a conseguir dos m?s!!

[Cowbell]

I think we will be fine. I think we played a bit too tight at times tonight and we lost focus a little bit being up 6-2. I think we will light up their pitcher tomorrow.

I also think we used all three for short stints so that they are all available tomorrow. It’s nice that we really still have all options.

[smootness]

The good thing is, if we can win tomorrow, then Saturday is meaningless!

[FriarsPoint]

Big big win. I was hoping we would’ve gotten into their bullpen a little deeper. Still, hard to complain about a Friday night win versus this team with a chance to win the series tomorrow.

[Jarius]

GREAT QUESTION

You put the shift on for dead pull hitters. You pitch them outside to get them to roll over on top of an outside pitch and hit a weaker ground ball up the middle or to the pull side.

[maroonmania]

Lemonis gotta fix this- our guys seem perpetually out of position - we gave LSU about 2 or 3 extra outs tonight, plus the errors

Exactly, LSU is not even a very good offense right now. We gave them multiple extra outs though with players either out of position or not playing the correct depth. We can't do that AND combine that with losing runs by running ourselves out of innings. Good win tonight but we were very fortunate.

[The Federalist Engineer]

The good thing is, if we can win tomorrow, then Saturday is meaningless!

There are no meaningless games. Sweeps are what SEC championships and National Seeds are built on.

This is such a Larry Templeton, Gus Croom, Hillary Clinton, Ross Bjork thing to even say, com'on man

I don't think Duplantis is that kind of dead pull hitter. He seemed very comfortable going with the pitch on the outer half of the plate.

It was clearly a joke.

He’s being sarcastic.

I got it Smoot.
