CWS Game 2 Winners Bracket vs Vandy Game Thread

[MoreCowbell]

I?m too amped had to get it started. Let?s whoop some ass boys

[ShotgunDawg]

Here we go!!!!

I'm so sick of NBA coverage by ESPN during this break.

Do people actually watch that league?

[ShotgunDawg]

We're about to find out if Kumar learned how to become a different pitcher last week, or if he's due for a regression to the mean this week

[msstate7]

First pitch?

[ShotgunDawg]

First pitch?

2:15

[ShotgunDawg]

Karl Ravech just referred to MSU & Vandy as "franchises"

Kind of funny & not altogether wrong

[ScoobaDawg]

I?m too amped had to get it started. Let?s whoop some ass boys


FIX YOUR DAMN IPHONE... please :)

[ShotgunDawg]

These uniforms are incredible. Love them

[ScoobaDawg]

We're about to find out if Kumar learned how to become a different pitcher last week, or if he's due for a regression to the mean this week


Yep..and if we are gonna chase that curve out of the zone. Discipline boys... let's do this.

[msu15]

Here we go!!!!

Well considering how much more money the players make in the NBA compared to the NFL I would think so genius.

[BulldogBear]

Here we go!!!!

NBA?

Hmmmm.... don't know this word. Sorry. I wouldn't even begin to know how tonpronounce it.

[BulldogBear]

Well considering how much more money the players make in the NBA compared to the NFL I would think so genius.

Good Lawd. We not even playing yet and already roasting each other in the game thread.

[ShotgunDawg]

These uniforms are awesome except for the awful pants in which the pipping doesn't connect right. Lowers our players athletic look by a full grade.

[ScoobaDawg]

Allllllriiiight guys. Time to have everyone look at you crazy at work.

It's time to get loud. It's time to represent ( you all better be sporting Maroon today)
MISSISSIPPI STATE what time is it... LEt's kick the shit out of those "Vandy boys" we ARE the BETTER program and better team.

[ShotgunDawg]

Where is the crowd? Sheesh

Biggest game of the CWS & nobody there

[ScoobaDawg]

These uniforms are awesome except for the awful pants in which the pipping doesn't connect right. Lowers our players athletic look by a full grade.
Meh. It's Omaha

Give me pinstripes damnit.

[ScoobaDawg]

well no hitters gone.. base hit westy fields it in the grass. no shot.

[ShotgunDawg]

We sure he was safe?

[smootness]

Man, Martin is so good.

[smootness]

We sure he was safe?

Yeah, he was.

What the crap, somebody take charge out there.

[ScoobaDawg]

SH!T.... f!ck
Thats JAkes ball ..damnit take charge...Ball falls off westys glove with jake, westy charging each other in short cf.

[ShotgunDawg]

Terrible play by Mangum. Brutal. Take charge. Sheesh

[vv83]

My god this is as MSU of a start you can get

[ShotgunDawg]

Awful start. Playing hesitant on the first 2 batters

[Lord McBuckethead]

WTF is going on. Two outs turned into 1st and 2nd no outs. Plumlee says thanks mother 17ers.

[ScoobaDawg]

Wrong... Jake's saying I GOT IT I GOT IT... westy should have gotten out of the way.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Wow. Time to settle it down Plumlee.

[smootness]

Plumlee not real sharp early.

[ScoobaDawg]

Plum not getting the change located. 9 pitches. should have 2 outs.. damnit.

[Dawgology]

Alright folks don’t be talking about our players. The elitedawgs police will come for you. Our players are are all trying hard and this is going to be ok.

[magrooder]

Double play. Let's get out of the inning right here!

[RocketDawg]

These uniforms are awesome except for the awful pants in which the pipping doesn't connect right. Lowers our players athletic look by a full grade.

Haha. Seems I've heard that before.

[smootness]

HUGE double play. Great turn.

[ShotgunDawg]

17 YEAH

[ScoobaDawg]

BIG BIG double play. 6-4-3.
2 outs.

[ShotgunDawg]

I have determined that the key to college baseball is having all left handed hitters. Nobody has a changeup

[RocketDawg]

Allllllriiiight guys. Time to have everyone look at you crazy at work.

It's time to get loud. It's time to represent ( you all better be sporting Maroon today)
MISSISSIPPI STATE what time is it... LEt's kick the shit out of those "Vandy boys" we ARE the BETTER program and better team.

Not me. I'm wearing black because the "kids" like it.

[magrooder]

Got out of it with the strike out.

[MetEdDawg]

Wrong... Jake's saying I GOT IT I GOT IT... westy should have gotten out of the way.

No Jake clearly said Take It Take It

[RocketDawg]

Now we get to see the phenomenal Rocker.

[ShotgunDawg]

HUGE ASS INNING!!!

[smootness]

Boom! GREAT job to get out of that unscathed.

[mparkerfd20]

Hell yeah. No panic in this team.

[vv83]

Beautiful job by Plumlee to not panic there and get out of it

[ScoobaDawg]

BBIIIIGGGG K . to the btm. Come on Jake let's get this started correctly!!!!

[bobtail bob]

Now let's put some pressure on them and see how they like it

[ShotgunDawg]

No Jake clearly said Take It Take It

This

It's the Ron Polk way

Player catching the ball: I got it, I got it, I got it

Player laying off: Take it, take it, take it

[MetEdDawg]

This

It's the Ron Polk way

Player catching the ball: I got it, I got it, I got it

Player laying off: Take it, take it, take it

Yep. And it's what I teach my kids to do too. Perez is an idiot. Communication isn't just for getting balls. It's for allowing the infielders to know they can go for it without OF being in the way

[ShotgunDawg]

Take some pitches & make Kumar work

[ScoobaDawg]

well jake didn't swing first pitch.. made him throw a strike.

[ShotgunDawg]

Tracy Rocker is a hoss

[mparkerfd20]

There goes the no hitter

[RocketDawg]

There went Rocker's no-hitter. Maybe they'll shut up now.

[ShotgunDawg]

That's a Jake Mangum hit

[smootness]

Yeah, come on! Already a hit on the board.

[ScoobaDawg]

Blooper falls in front of charging lf'er. made him throw 5 pitches NICE AB.

[ShotgunDawg]

Good swing by Westy.

[Dawgology]

Can’t swing at his first pitch. Make him earn it

[ScoobaDawg]

and 1 pitch.. fly out to rf.

[RocketDawg]

Tracy Rocker is a hoss

Is Tracy the mother or the father?

[ShotgunDawg]

Kumar is a good matchup for Tanner. Let's see what happens

[magrooder]

two on with Mac at bat

[ScoobaDawg]

Ouch.... hits Tanner on the calf. thankfully right on the shin guard... 92 mph.

2 on . come on big hit mac.

[ShotgunDawg]

Is Tracy the mother or the father?

Father. Ex NFL DL & current Tennessee DL coach

[ShotgunDawg]

Tanner is going to get Kumar good once this game. It's a good matchup for him

[Dawgology]

If they sit there and take the pitches he?s going to walk or bean a lot of batters. Once you get into his head it?s on

[ScoobaDawg]

Mac hits it in the 5 feet of foul territory deep down rf line..and he drops it thankfully.

[MetEdDawg]

That slider sucks. Not sure why we can't see it well**

[ScoobaDawg]

theres the slider..and its wayyy out of the zone.. good job mac.

[ShotgunDawg]

Kumar's slider isn't as sharp today. We are seeing it

[ScoobaDawg]

Shit.. theres the slider again and it was a strike. Mac ks swinging.

[smootness]

Just don't swing at the balls, guys! It's easy.

[ShotgunDawg]

Mac guessed & lost.

Mac recognized the first slider but then guessed fastball & got burned. Didn't think he'd double up

[RocketDawg]

Missed an opportunity, but we're hitting this guy.

[ScoobaDawg]

Fosc hits it dead center about 390 for the easy fo. DAMNIT

[MoreCowbell]

His slider is average today and we are squaring him up. This game is gonna come down to our defense.

[ShotgunDawg]

Good swing. Foscue went to the wrong part of the park.

We are taking good swing on Kumar. We'll score some this game

[smootness]

Rocker is definitely good. Don't know if his slider is as good as it was his last outing, but it definitely looks good. We did a decent job of swinging at fastballs that inning. If we keep doing that, we'll have some success.

[ShotgunDawg]

His slider is average today and we are squaring him up. This game is gonna come down to our defense.

Yes. It's easier to see rotation out of the hand during the day than at night. Batting averages usually go up in day games

[MarketingBully]

We are hitting him hard. Just need Plumlee to keep pitching his way and we will be fine.

[ShotgunDawg]

Vanderbilt is so bad for college baseball.

When a national power's fanbase doesn't give a shit, it really hurts the overall sport. Time for them to go away IMO

[ScoobaDawg]

easy fo to jake. 1 away/.

[ShotgunDawg]

I love how many easy outs Plumlee gets.

I think we typically play better defense behind him because guys are on their toes & find rhythm at their position

[ScoobaDawg]

Vanderbilt is so bad for college baseball.

When a national power's fanbase doesn't give a shit, it really hurts the overall sport. Time for them to go away IMO


Both teams expected to play yesterday.. come on we dont have 10k there either.

[magrooder]

That blows

[ShotgunDawg]

Gotta find that changeup

[smootness]

Dang it

[ScoobaDawg]

damnit... mac tried hard but that ball was gone. 1-0 vandy

[ShotgunDawg]

That blows

Looks like you're the guy who's TV is way ahead of everyone elses

[deadheaddawg]

make it 29 come from behind wins

[smootness]

That was a pretty good pitch. Not much else you can do.

[ShotgunDawg]

Gotta find that changeup

Plumlee lost that AB by not having a changeup. He needs to find it

Behind early again. Damn

[Lord McBuckethead]

Wow. serving up the meat pitches. Need to find the low zone.

[ShotgunDawg]

Both teams expected to play yesterday.. come on we dont have 10k there either.

I'm not complaining about the crowd. Just complaining about bad they are for the sport in general

[magrooder]

We don't start off well unless we spot the other team a run or two anyway.

[msstate7]

Playing in the day is advantage vandy. They've hit a crap load more HRs than us, and ball carries much better in afternoon

[mparkerfd20]

:(

[smootness]

Wow. serving up the meat pitches. Need to find the low zone.

That HR was on a pitch that was probably below the zone.

[mparkerfd20]

This will be yet another come from behind win. Awesome!

[Lord McBuckethead]

Good comeback to get the K on the next hitter. Keep mixing it up Plumlee.

[magrooder]

That HR was on a pitch that was probably below the zone.

Yeah he just went down and got it. Wasn't a bad pitch by Plumlee.

[smootness]

Good job by Plumlee to rebound. Just keep doing what we're doing, we're ok.

[Really Clark?]

Way to come back Plumlee

[Lord McBuckethead]

That HR was on a pitch that was probably below the zone.

Naw, that was mid thigh inside middle of the plate. He just upper cut it cause it was coming in at 87 mph.

[Dawgology]

Seems we never start getting runs until 4th or 5th inning. Hope we aren’t too far behind by then.

[ShotgunDawg]

Yeah he just went down and got it. Wasn't a bad pitch by Plumlee.

Problem wasn't the pitch, it was Scott didn't respect the changeup. Plumlee has to get that changeup going or Bleday is going to get him as well

[Lord McBuckethead]

I say delete this thread and have cadaver start one.

[ShotgunDawg]

Gonn be tough if Kumar is landing strikes with a first pitch breaking ball

[RocketDawg]

I'm not complaining about the crowd. Just complaining about bad they are for the sport in general

But they hold up the academics for the SEC.

[smootness]

Someone get Dawg61's attention and tell him to note how Rocker is pumping that slider into the zone with no problem. And we're flinching.

[ShotgunDawg]

But they hold up the academics for the SEC.

They could do that & finish in last place like they should

[smootness]

Rocker is starting to roll. We need to take pitches, back out of the box, and try to disrupt his timing.

[ShotgunDawg]

That was an awful shitty AB by Rowdy. Non-competitive. He's got to be better than that

[msstate7]

Will we score on vandy in 2019? Surely we will, right?

[ShotgunDawg]

Got slow Rocker down.

He's in too much of a rhythm. Step out & take your time

[MarketingBully]

Now our batters are acting like no approach nancies here.

[MetEdDawg]

Sorry folks. Rocker looks really good. Quit fooling yourselves. He's throwing 93-96 on the FB and the slider is really good. It's ok to say he's really good. I know that's hard for some of us but Rocker is bringing it today

[Pollodawg]

Patience. Be patient.

[ShotgunDawg]

Swung at ball 4

Brutal ABs that inning

[msstate7]

Got slow Rocker down.

He's in too much of a rhythm. Step out & take your time

I remember when we faced beede in Starkville we messed him up by bunting a lot. Maybe we should drop a few down and force him to field his position.

[Pollodawg]

Rocker is good, but he can be gotten to. He already has.

[msstate7]

Sorry folks. Rocker looks really good. Quit fooling yourselves. He's throwing 93-96 on the FB and the slider is really good. It's ok to say he's really good. I know that's hard for some of us but Rocker is bringing it today

He's more talented than anyone on our team. If he's on, we toast

[ShotgunDawg]

Sorry folks. Rocker looks really good. Quit fooling yourselves. He's throwing 93-96 on the FB and the slider is really good. It's ok to say he's really good. I know that's hard for some of us but Rocker is bringing it today

He's absolutely really good. Who said he wasn't?

All that was said is that he's simply not the 19K he was last week

[smootness]

Swung at ball 4

Brutal ABs that inning

That'll happen when the pitcher is throwing 96 with movement and a wipeout slider.

[ShotgunDawg]

We got to get Rocker out of rhythm. He looks too comfortable

[RocketDawg]

Will we score on vandy in 2019? Surely we will, right?

They've only scored 2 on us, counting today. We'll get it back.

[smootness]

He's absolutely really good. Who said he wasn't?

All that was said is that he's simply not the 19K he was last week

He almost certainly won't have 19 K again...but he looks every bit as good so far as he did last time.

[bobtail bob]

Rocker is starting to roll. We need to take pitches, back out of the box, and try to disrupt his timing.

this x100 . it's clear he likes a groove to get in. We need him ruminating over every pitch

[Lord McBuckethead]

Rocker is starting to roll. We need to take pitches, back out of the box, and try to disrupt his timing.

That is exactly what I was coming on to say. You need to break up his rhythm on purpose every at bat from here on out. Also, everyone needs to look curve first pitch and look to go the other way with it. I would love for not a single one of our batters to look to pull the ball this entire game, until we get the lead.

[BuckyIsAB****]

I would still love to see our batting average away from home compared to on the road. I bet home is at least 2x higher

[RocketDawg]

Westburg just earned his pay.

[deadheaddawg]

Damn westy. Wow

[MetEdDawg]

He's absolutely really good. Who said he wasn't?

All that was said is that he's simply not the 19K he was last week

Looks like he's got plenty of juice to double digit strikeout us today.

Him not being a 19 strikeout person might be the most obvious statement ever to be uttered. No one in the history of baseball is a 19 strikeout person

[mparkerfd20]

Hell of an out there.

[ShotgunDawg]

WOW!!!!!!

[smootness]

Great play by Westburg! Wow!

We're going to need some of that today.

[mparkerfd20]

He was safe tho

[ShotgunDawg]

Looks like he's got plenty of juice to double digit strikeout us today.

Him not being a 19 strikeout person might be the most obvious statement ever to be uttered. No one in the history of baseball is a 19 strikeout person

Let's not start arguing with each other. There is a group of you that do this every game & it's tiring

[deadheaddawg]

He was safe tho

lol

[Percho]

Let's not start arguing with each other. There is a group of you that do this every game & it's tiring

What they live for.

[RocketDawg]

He was safe tho

Surprised it wasn't reviewed. It looked really close.

[ShotgunDawg]

I'm Ok walking Bleday. Don't let him beat us

[ShotgunDawg]

Come on Plum get back in the zone

[smootness]

I'm Ok walking Bleday. Don't let him beat us

Especially with 2 outs and nobody on

[smootness]

Good job, Plumlee.

[ShotgunDawg]

Atta boy Plum

[ShotgunDawg]

Stands are filling up

[RocketDawg]

The stadium seems to be filling up. Maybe the locals are taking an hour or two off from work to see a good game. Rain delays screw up the fans as well as the teams.

[MetEdDawg]

Let's not start arguing with each other. There is a group of you that do this every game & it's tiring

If you think that's arguing you need to buck up

[ShotgunDawg]

Rocker is really hitting spots.

Impressed by how well he's manipulating his slider

[Scared_Hitless]

Rocker is a problem and his pitch count is low

[msstate7]

Gotta have it, Allen. Good job westburg

[ShotgunDawg]

Atta boy Westy!!!!

[ShotgunDawg]

Gotta have it, Allen. Good job westburg

Allen going to get ROcker in this game. He's the best matchup we have

[mparkerfd20]

Wow that was a ball. LOW!!!

[msstate7]

Allen going to get ROcker in this game. He's the best matchup we have

Looks like he'll have to

[ShotgunDawg]

Ump just gave him one

[MarketingBully]

Gotta make this kid uncomfortable. Thought we had a chance with Allen. Horrible strike call by the ump though. 6 inches under the zone.

[ShotgunDawg]

Damnit Allen. Don't roll over

[RocketDawg]

The stats show we don't have any errors. How about the dropped fly ball to short center?

[ShotgunDawg]

Ump changed that entire AB with a bullshit strike call.

[magrooder]

Damnit Allen. Don't roll over

Gonna have to hit opposite field like Westy did to get to this guy.

[mparkerfd20]

Terrible strike call. Not even close

[preachermatt83]

Plum pitching well

[ShotgunDawg]

Good lord. That's a strike

[ShotgunDawg]

Ump changes the Allen AB with a bad call & then changes their leadoff hitter's AB with a bad call

[BuckyIsAB****]

We are getting hosed by this umpire. Lemonis needs to step out there

[magrooder]

Good lord. That's a strike

Yep, then came back with a meat pitch for the hit.

[bobtail bob]

It feels like we have a finger stuck in the leak hole of a dam and it could break loose any moment

[magrooder]

Crap. 2nd and 3rd with no outs.

[ShotgunDawg]

You've got to be shitting me.

Completely unlucky. Completely unlucky. Brutal

DaMarco capped that ball to RF

[mparkerfd20]

I don't think we are winning today

[msstate7]

No pressure plumlee, but if they score both, we probably lose with rocker rolling

[Dawg2003]

It feels like we have a finger stuck in the leak hole of a dam and it could break loose any moment

I get the same feeling.

[msstate7]

Wow, huge break

[magrooder]

Gilbert with a heads up out at third.

[RocketDawg]

Great play on 3rd.

[Dawgology]

No pressure plumlee, but if they score both, we probably lose with rocker rolling

Honestly, my thought was the first one who scores wins like last time

[ShotgunDawg]

Huge out!!!

[ScoobaDawg]

Nice play by gilbert... gets the ground ball gets the runner at 3b. 1 out

[mparkerfd20]

wow maybe I'm wrong

[somebodyshotmypaw]

I don't think we are winning today

Don't quit on us brother. It ain't over until 27 outs are recorded.

[bobtail bob]

I can hear that the whistler has arrived

[ScoobaDawg]

there's the whistler....

[msstate7]

1 more

[RougeDawg]

Looks like the majority of our hitters are not following the game plan. We need to eliminate the slider and sit fastball until 2 strikes. Have to do this to win.

[magrooder]

two down, need a quick out here

[msstate7]

Wow, plumlee and westburg don't wanna lose

[ScoobaDawg]

BIG K. 4th of the game 2 away

[RocketDawg]

Woo hoo ... got out of a tough inning with no score.

[RougeDawg]

Hold them to no runs here and score and we will win. Would be the momentum swing needed.

[magrooder]

Time to chase Rocker right now.

[ScoobaDawg]

Great job westy. dawgs get out without any more damage still 1-0 vandy after 4.5

[Percho]

Since the 1st he has started righties with a slider for a strike.

[Dawgology]

Question is....how many innings can we get out of Plum with his count rising. He’s right at 70 now right?

[bobtail bob]

we need to bunt or something to make Rockers fat ass move around out there a little , Make him bend down and trip and fall a few times. we cant allow him to stay this comfortable

[magrooder]

Good at bat by Mac

[RocketDawg]

I believe that's Rocker's first walk. Beginning of a big inning.

[ShotgunDawg]

Mac is missing some good pitches

[ScoobaDawg]

Balllll 4 walk for mac. 47 pitches now on rocker.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Lets go Fosc

[RougeDawg]

And Foscue is not sitting dead red on fastball and letting the slider go early. We will not win with this approach.

[ShotgunDawg]

Come one Foscue. See the baseball. Brutal

[ScoobaDawg]

I'd say take it but i agree dont brak your face... wow

[ShotgunDawg]

We gotta get a big hit. LET'S GO!!!!!!!

[ShotgunDawg]

Seems like we are getting down 0-2 in every critical AB

[Lord McBuckethead]

Step towards the 17n ball.

[ScoobaDawg]

Skelton K's swinging on that slider..OUT OF THE ZONE... come on dustin.

[ShotgunDawg]

Skeleton has no chance vs this guy

[wasabaka]

Rocker is eating our lunch with that slider

[ShotgunDawg]

Skelton K's swinging on that slider..OUT OF THE ZONE... come on dustin.

We got some guys just guessing

[MetEdDawg]

Foscue was absolutely sitting dead red. Welcome to why the slider is so good for Rocker. Foscue was clearly sitting dead red because of how far out front he was.

Learn baseball

[Pollodawg]

We?re playing directly into his hands.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Alright. Coaches need to adjust our entire plate mentality again.

[RougeDawg]

We gotta get a big hit. LET'S GO!!!!!!!

Going to be difficult if our hitters do not force Rocker to get off of his game plan. By not swinging at these sliders that aren't even starting off as strikes. They are going to be below the knees every time at that release point. Maybe our hitters are not very cerebral in the batters box. Rowdey surely isn't.

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Rocker is the real deal. Need to throw this guy off his rhythm.

[ShotgunDawg]

Rowdey has swung at 4 straight sliders

[Pollodawg]

Rowdy just swings at everything.

[MarketingBully]

Why would you swing at all on 0-2. He’s not going to throw anything but a slider in the dirt.

[mparkerfd20]

Keep it close and we're eventually going to break through. Patience is killing me tho. I wanna score and score LOTS!

[ShotgunDawg]

They are going to be below the knees every time at that release point. Maybe our hitters are not very cerebral in the batters box. Rowdey surely isn't.

It's hard to pick it up out of the hand & when a guy is throwing 95, you have to make a quick decision

[msstate7]

How many pitches has rocker thrown?

[Pollodawg]

We got dudes just swinging blind right now.

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

On the plus side, Rocker is starting to miss with his FB and though we're still swinging at it he's not precise with his slider either.

[smootness]

They are going to be below the knees every time at that release point. Maybe our hitters are not very cerebral in the batters box. Rowdey surely isn't.

They are college hitters facing a guy who has potentially elite major league stuff. When he's on, it's always going to be very, very hard.

[RougeDawg]

Foscue was absolutely sitting dead red. Welcome to why the slider is so good for Rocker. Foscue was clearly sitting dead red because of how far out front he was.

Learn baseball

Learn Baseball? lolololololol

If he's sitting dead red fastball, there's no way he swings at that slider. Slider spin is the easiest to see and quickest to pickup. You need to get a little league book and start from there.

let me add that even if he thinks that pitch is a FB, it was going to be at the knees or lower based on the release point.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Well we are facing Cy 17n Young again. Everyone needs to go up there looking at pitches and try to foul a bunch off. Need to get his count up.

[preachermatt83]

We won’t score on this guy. Pitiful.

[Liverpooldawg]

Rocker is just down right nasty. He will be a very wealthy young man in a few years barring injury.

[Dawgology]

Foscue was absolutely sitting dead red. Welcome to why the slider is so good for Rocker. Foscue was clearly sitting dead red because of how far out front he was.

Learn baseball

Why are you always so antagonistic? Are you just that unhappy or just a sociopath?

[smootness]

Why would you swing at all on 0-2. He’s not going to throw anything but a slider in the dirt.

Definitely agree here.

[ShotgunDawg]

Vandy's pitchers look like SEC DCs vs Moorhead

[Pollodawg]

If we keep contacting, eventually, it’ll happen.

[smootness]

Learn Baseball? lolololololol

If he's sitting dead red fastball, there's no way he swings at that slider. Slider spin is the easiest to see and quickest to pickup. You need to get a little league book and start from there.

Dude.

[ShotgunDawg]

Rocker is just down right nasty. He will be a very wealthy young man in a few years barring injury.

MLB teams would've paid him 3 mil last year

[Pollodawg]

I wish my team had unlimited schollies.

[Dawgology]

We got dudes just swinging blind right now.


I think Rocker had a bunch of our batters scared before we ever got to the park. Oh well.

[MetEdDawg]

Learn Baseball? lolololololol

This is how I know you don't know shit about baseball. Don't you freaking think of they could identify it as an out of zone slider they wouldn't swing at it?? And if it's so easy why throw it since hitters should be beating the crap out of the ball?

You clearly don't know anything about baseball. Oh just don't swing at it. It's really simple.

[ShotgunDawg]

Plum is keeping us in it.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Tennessee got 7 runs on 10 hits on Rocker.... what was their approach.

[Liverpooldawg]

MLB teams would've paid him 3 mil last year

Yeah, I'd have gone pro.

[RougeDawg]

No it's not. You either see skin (slider/offspeed) or all ball (fastball). I've hit 95 before off a guy with more than just a measly slider. he had a curve and change. was not difficult because I eliminated the offspeed and sat fastball. Then if you see any skin at release you do not swing. It really is that basic.

[Liverpooldawg]

Tennessee got 7 runs on 10 hits on Rocker.... what was their approach.

When did they play?

He wasn't as good then.

I wish my team had unlimited schollies.

Not there is anything wrong with it, but Vandy always has more minorities because they are free at Vandy. Martin here may go in the top 5 in next year's draft & he costs Vandy 0 scholarship money.

Dansby Swanson was also free

No it's not. You either see skin (slider/offspeed) or all ball (fastball). I've hit 95 before off a guy with more than just a measly slider. he had a curve and change. was not difficult because I eliminated the offspeed and sat fastball. Then if you see any skin at release you do not swing. It really is that basic.

Getting a freshman the first half of the season before he figured out college baseball. He was an elite talent but dad said he was going to college. If not he's a top 2 round draft pick.

No idea, but we just have had bad luck vs vandy... both their starters have had great stuff. Neither pitcher has been that great this year, but they were/are when facing us
