Samford Baseball Thread

[The Federalist Engineer]

Harding on the mound

0-0

Bottom of the 1st

[Rex54]

These college umpires are worse than the ones doing 10 year old games at the city park. Pathetic.

[TNDawg35]

Lord help the ump is bad behind the plate. That pitch was in the others batter box to LT...

It's ridiculous how far outside pitches are called for strikes. No way many of those pitches can possibly be hit.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Another mid-major pitcher is looking like an SEC Friday night guy....hmmm?

Still early 0-0 in the top 3rd

[magrooder]

2nd time around getting some good swings, dawgs up 1-0

[HoopsDawg]

Yep, Rowdey broke up the no-hitter. Thank goodness for all of these Samford baserunning errors. They've made 3 outs on the bases.

[Activated Alpha]

Bringing in B. Smith for Samford? Guess keeping him on a low pitch count or thinking he can come back at least Saturday or Sunday

[magrooder]

Great play by Forsythe

[magrooder]

Samford has some heavyweights on their roster

This is an important game. He can still comeback on the weekend.

[Dawgcap]

Defense looking good. Time for O to start cranking. Big weekend ahead

[The Federalist Engineer]

Big Game you say, then we should have EC pitch today and let Harding pitch the little game on Saturday

But that’s just me

[magrooder]

Hancock with the two run homer.

[VandelayIndustries]

That was smoked

[Dawgcap]

There?s a start

[VandelayIndustries]

Hatcher with a bomb

[magrooder]

Hatcher with the solo shot to center 4-0 dawgs

[HoopsDawg]

Great hit Hatch. Maybe that will get him going a little bit more.

[HoopsDawg]

Hope we can get Skinner an AB tonight. Maybe even Clark too.

[Dawgcap]

Nice inning. Big for confidence.

Basically every ranked team is losing right now. Chill.

[Homedawg]

Once we got past the second we've hit some ropes. 3 for outs. Allen, Tanner and James. Plus the hits we've had. Box score won't show how well we've hit it the last couple of innings.

[Dawgcap]

Been a very productive mid week game so far. Only helping to make us better

[Cowbell]

You shouldn't be so positive about our hitting**

[VandelayIndustries]

This ump is very generous with the outside corner

[HoopsDawg]

This ump is very generous with the outside corner

Yeah, it's a joke, but at least it's both ways. They are using an electronic zone in the minors this year. Maybe college baseball will get it soon.

[VandelayIndustries]

Hancock oppo bomb

Probably the best we've swung it all year.

[Turfdawg67]

That guy and 99whatever have silly expectations. I miss the 80's & 90's too, but routinely blowing out mid-week teams isn't a given anymore. Just get the W.

[magrooder]

forsythe with yet another single up the middle with an rbi

[msstate7]

This inning has been some really bad fielding. Make em pay more, Hancock

[Cowbell]

We've had so many baserunners, Polk can't keep up. He's confused

[KOdawg1]

OM is currently getting spanked by La Tech 11-1.

Clown. Shoes.

[Cowbell]

Clown. Shoes.
Maybe Bianco is learning to not worry about being the regular season world champions*

[magrooder]

Meche has some serious range at second

[Homedawg]

Amazing how short the game thread is when we win 10-2....

[Homedawg]

It happens. But it does make me think back to yancy saying preseason there is no way state had a better pitching staff than us. No way.
ETA- if they don't get DN back quick their depth is going to show up real fast. It doesn't sniff ours.

I do think their offense is impressive but no way they throw it like we do. Yancy is such a douche.

[Dawgcap]

3 of top 5 go down and Vandy struggles against Belmont. Mid week games can bite you and they definitely have us in the past. Bottom line it goes to conference and I still think 17-13 in the SEC will be nasty. Every week is gonna be a struggle. Ain?t no gimmes on the weekend from here on out

[Homedawg]

Oh I'm not saying they aren't good, they are and they have a better offense. Just pointing out douche's comments. We agree for sure.

I'll take 17-13 and go to the house. Right now!!!!

[Dawgcap]

Damn right. No way I?d be upset. This conference is stacked!

[Dawgcap]

Told my son we need to win 5series 2-1. Go 1-2 in 4 series and get 1 3-0 sweep. Imperative we don?t get swept. This is gonna be nip and tuck all year

And he ain't even that good...

[Dawgcap]

And he ain't even that good...
I?ll take our pitching staff all day every day and not too freaked out about offense because we do tend to produce in key moments. My biggest worries are and always will be the SEC strike zone and it?s inconsistency. Walks can and will kill teams in conference

Yeah but their guys are bigger than ours and my Daddy is a lawyer.

[Dawgcap]

Seriously they are strong and to be honest the whole conference is pretty nasty. I don?t give a shit about them until conference games. Because we won?t see them until then or in the SEC tournament. Thir path to Omaha will differ than theirs and I always like the way we negotiate our path vs their negotiations! Ha

I’ve never personally met a OM grad with a plus 90 IQ.

[Lord McBuckethead]

I’ve never personally met a OM grad with a plus 90 IQ.

Come to think of it, I haven't met an Ole Miss grad that was smarter than me. Maybe as smart, but never straight up smarter.

[ZedFedder]

Did y’all see KC Hunt’s 86-90 mph cutter/slider? Whew.

[Extendedcab]

I’ve never personally met a OM grad with a plus 90 IQ.

You are generous! ;)
