Rubber game thread!!

[Bdawg]

Let's get the W!!!! Good work around the walk.

[parabrave]

Rowdey gets a leadoff hit and Tanner gets plunked.

[Bdawg]

Dang Rowdy stays hot and TA gets popped. Let's get some here!!! One outs, 2 on.

[msstate7]

How are you looking fastball when he can't throw it for a strike? Bad AB

[Bdawg]

Ouch James!!

[msstate7]

K and pop up. Way to help him out, dawgs

[maroonmania]

So yesterday we strike out many times swinging with a ball at shoulder level but today with 2 on and no out KJ takes strike 3 right down the pipe.

[Bdawg]

Be a shame to waste this start.

[msstate7]

So yesterday we strike out many times swinging with a ball at shoulder level but today with 2 on and no out KJ takes strike 3 right down the pipe.

He had to be looking offspeed. Why? No freaking idea

[Bdawg]

So yesterday we strike out many times swinging with a ball at shoulder level but today with 2 on and no out KJ takes strike 3 right down the pipe.

I'll have to say he painted the corner, but he should be swinging

[msstate7]

Why are we looking offspeed?

[Bdawg]

He had to be looking offspeed. Why? No freaking idea

Yeah he doesn't have his curve right now

[msstate7]

Boy, that's how you lose games

[VandelayIndustries]

James AB was a killer

[maroonmania]

I'll have to say he painted the corner, but he should be swinging

Was way inside the black, a no doubt strike.

[msstate7]

James AB was a killer

Yeah, I thought the tanner AB was really good but didn't get rewarded

[Bdawg]

Wasted. Guess we have gotten away from ground balls but looks like we were back shoulder dipping on those swings for outs.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Hancock has faded lately

[msstate7]

We may be at the point where we have to consider sac bunting when 1st 2 reach no matter who is up.

[msstate7]

Good sportsmanship by the OM kid. He could've creamed our pitcher

[VandelayIndustries]

Think he’s out but won’t be overturned

[Bulldog1]

He's out

[maroonmania]

He is out if he was touched during the swipe. Guess that is the question.

[Bulldog1]

Go figure...

[BuckyIsAB****]

Hes out Lemonis should be raising hell

[msstate7]

I think that's right call. I think he tagged him, but not sure

[BuckyIsAB****]

What is the point of replay if they cant overturn that

[msstate7]

Nice k

[maroonmania]

Great job by Fristoe to get 2 strikeouts after the guys on 2nd should have been called out.

[Bulldog1]

Hatcher with a BB!!!!!!!

[msstate7]

Big time by fristoe

[Bulldog1]

Then Skinner swings on 1st pitch

[Bulldog1]

Forsythe rbi single, up 1-0!

[msstate7]

Hancock and skinner have given us some shitty ABs. Pitcher is shaky as hell with control and swinging pitch 1. And the worst part, both popped it up. That makes me wanna punch a puppy

[msstate7]

Atta boy, forsythe. Weak hit, but a HIT

[Bdawg]

Hatcher with a BB!!!!!!!

Is that his first????

[Bdawg]

Just can't stand to go down looking!! Kills me!!

[Bulldog1]

Is that his first????

I believe it's his first in SEC play

[R2Dawg]

That was such bull on that strike call.

[Bdawg]

Just what walks will do for you. Get you in trouble. Fristoe spraying them now.

[msstate7]

Get the pen up.

[Bdawg]

Our own worst enemy!!! Come on Fristoe!!!

[msstate7]

Our freshman is scared to death

[msstate7]

Get his ass out

[Bulldog1]

Bring Harding in

[msstate7]

Our starters the last 2 days have been crap

[Bdawg]

Got to be kidding me!!!

[Bulldog1]

Can't throw a freaking strike. Pull him now coach

[VandelayIndustries]

Fristoe has to come out

[msstate7]

Got to be kidding me!!!

He was scared to death to throw to OM's 3-4. Glad we pulling him... maybe we can get him some counseling so he won't be terrified next week

[BeardoMSU]

Sure glad we waited that extra batter to make the change...

[Bdawg]

Why let him walk him when you got lefty in the pen against their best hitter from the left side?? At least try to keep the dang lead!!!

[R2Dawg]

Our pen gotta save the day now.

[msstate7]

Why let him walk him when you got lefty in the pen against their best hitter from the left side?? At least try to keep the dang lead!!!

Probably bc we don't wanna go into our pen in the 3rd inning. This is exactly what OM wants

[Bulldog1]

Sure glad we waited that extra batter to make the change...

Always

[Bulldog1]

Fly out on 1 pitch...

[BuckyIsAB****]

Fristoe pissed down his leg there

[Bdawg]

Probably bc we don't wanna go into our pen in the 3rd inning. This is exactly what OM wants

Thought our pen is full of studs. Harding been good too. Had to anyway(hindsighting I know)

[BuckyIsAB****]

He was scared to death to throw to OM's 3-4. Glad we pulling him... maybe we can get him some counseling so he won't be terrified next week

That was some chicken shit there

[msstate7]

Gotta answer dawgs

[BeardoMSU]

Probably bc we don't wanna go into our pen in the 3rd inning. This is exactly what OM wants

I would think we've got plenty of arms to finish this one out, no?

[msstate7]

Thought our pen is full of studs. Harding been good too.

They are. Lots of innings to cover though on a Sunday

[msstate7]

I would think we've got plenty of arms to finish this one out, no?

We have arms. Covering 6 innings vs a damn good offense is not ideal. All it takes is 1 wrong pitching change and things go south quick

[Bdawg]

I mean 1 run isnt going to win a Sunday game but I still don't like going with Fristoe when it was obvious he had lost it.

[msstate7]

Gonna be tough for us to beat them if James keeps K'n. Come on kid we need ya

[Bulldog1]

2k's for James today

[maroonmania]

KJ strikes out on a 59 footer. Geez, our offense sucks.

[msstate7]

Radio says OM kid is attacking. Fristoe wasn't. I agree

[BuckyIsAB****]

This dude making our best hitters look bad

[msstate7]

This dude making our best hitters look bad

Bc he isn't out there nibbling around. He's attacking. Thr nibbling around BS gets you beat against good teams

[Activated Alpha]

Ugh its so hard watching our offense. Got to be better. Need to take better ABs because he is making us look dumb.

[msstate7]

1 more run, and we lose

[msstate7]

I have a hard time seeing us scoring much vs a full OM pen

[KOdawg1]

We can't hit. It's just the way it is.

OM drives fastballs. We foul them off.

[Bdawg]

Belt high inside meat pitch.

[BuckyIsAB****]

We are a decent team but we just dont have a dawg. Allen is the closest thing and he is no Mangum

[maroonmania]

Belt high inside meat pitch.

So much for attacking. They actually have hitters that can make you pay for attacking, we don't.

[Bdawg]

We can't hit. It's just the way it is.

OM drives fastballs. We foul them off.

I've definitely seen us miss a lot of good fastballs down the middle. We don't punish mistakes for sure.

[Bulldog1]

Nice play forsythe.

Shift works again

[msstate7]

We can't hit. It's just the way it is.

OM drives fastballs. We foul them off.

I'm not a fire lemonis or JG guy, but I really wonder how we ended up with no hitting. Seems we would've went and found some hitters to transfer in

[maroonmania]

I'm not a fire lemonis or JG guy, but I really wonder how we ended up with no hitting. Seems we would've went and found some hitters to transfer in

I would easily trade away 2 of our bullpen arms for 2 more good hitters in the lineup.

[BeardoMSU]

I'm not a fire lemonis or JG guy, but I really wonder how we ended up with no hitting. Seems we would've went and found some hitters to transfer in

Well last years team had Foscue and Westburg, who could obviously hit. Who else did we lose off that roster?

[Bdawg]

So much for attacking. They actually have hitters that can make you pay for attacking, we don't.

Can't attack with belt high pitches for sure. NOt sure what he through but his fastball is not electric anyway.

[maroonmania]

Warning track baby!!

[msstate7]

Well last years team had Foscue and Westburg, who could obviously hit. Who else did we lose off that roster?

I'm just saying that since players got extra year all over the country, seems we would've upgraded some of these guys

[Bdawg]

I'm not a fire lemonis or JG guy, but I really wonder how we ended up with no hitting. Seems we would've went and found some hitters to transfer in

Hatcher wasn't supposed to be nearly this bad. Should be a solid bat for us.

[maroonmania]

I'm just saying that since players got extra year all over the country, seems we would've upgraded some of these guys

We brought in the guy with the most hits for any active D1 player, what do you want?****

[KOdawg1]

This guy is not a good pitcher. But we're making him look like one.

[msstate7]

This guy is not a good pitcher. But we're making him look like one.

Bad pitching beats bad hitting every time**

Lol

[msstate7]

8 in a row by OM Sunday pitcher.

Why does 1 run feel insurmountable? Maybe bc we know we can't hit. I need some beer

[BuckyIsAB****]

Worst hitting team we have had since 2015

[maroonmania]

I know one thing, opposing 2nd basemen get a workout when they play us in a weekend series.

[KOdawg1]

Worst hitting team we have had since 2015

I've thought many times that this team (hitting wise) was very 2015ish. Just horrible approaches and mentally weak at-bats

[maroonmania]

Now 1 run in the last 13 innings against OM pitching.

[msstate7]

I know one thing, opposing 2nd basemen get a workout when they play us in a weekend series.

Maybe our regional will have a weak one

[BeardoMSU]

I need some beer

Have a feeling it won't be long before we all need something a bit stronger...

https://i.imgur.com/i590wVy.gif

[KOdawg1]

Well their 1-2-3 hitters go down 1-2-3.

Nice job by Harding.

[msstate7]

Come on bats, get a run!

[KOdawg1]

Dubrule is a waste of an at-bat

[msstate7]

10 in a row by OM Sunday starter. This offense is flat out pathetic

[Bdawg]

Freaking ball 4 Debrule. You battled the whole time to swing at crap.

[msstate7]

Rowdey F'n Jordan!

[BuckyIsAB****]

It is what it is at this point. We all knew we couldnt hit well back in February

[msstate7]

Come on Allen, go back-to-back

[Bulldog1]

Atta boy Rowdey!

[VandelayIndustries]

Rowdey

[Bdawg]

That's why Debrule needed to be on base!

[KOdawg1]

They're going to bring in Broadway. Need to make hay right here

[maroonmania]

Rowdey F'n Jordan!

Yep, now if Dubrule had walked like he should have it would have been an extra run. :(

[BuckyIsAB****]

Hate to say it but They are gonna have to walk a few for us to win just stating facts

[msstate7]

Hate to say it but They are gonna have to walk a few for us to win just stating facts

Probably so, but that's doable. Need Harding to give us another inning or 2

[KOdawg1]

I'm glad we packed the Dude just so we could get our shit kicked in.

[mparkerfd20]

Ballgame

[maroonmania]

Ballgame

Yep.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Dubrule swings at ball 4 and we only tie it, they get a walk and go ahead. Our lineup is shit

[msstate7]

Maybe we can come back. I'm no longer mad... they just better than us.

[Percho]

Throws the ball in the same spot he hit the first one out

[Bdawg]

I'm speechless. Belt high again. Is what it is. They make you pay. We look like punching Judy's.

[BeardoMSU]

Maybe we can come back. I'm no longer mad... they just better than us.

We've certainly done them plenty of favors...

[msstate7]

We've certainly done them plenty of favors...

Man, they've hit ropes all weekend. Friday night they had some bad luck.

[Percho]

We throw very few balls high or above in the strike zone middle in. IMHO that's what you have to do against an aggressive hitting team.

[maroonmania]

Really bad part is we could easily get swept next weekend in Nashville.

[Bulldog1]

Overrated

[Bdawg]

We've certainly done them plenty of favors...

Yep. Walk one in. And leave 2 meat pitches up to same guy, while putting one on for free to make sure he gets 2 rbi out of his second swing.

[msstate7]

We throw very few balls high or above in the strike zone middle in. IMHO that's what you have to do against an aggressive hitting team.

Probably bc if you miss just a little they will hit a laser somewhere. Miss vs us and we hit a dribbler between 2nd and 3rd after you get by our 1-2-3 hitters

[msstate7]

Overrated

Yeah, I guess. I only watch sec ball, but I felt ark, vandy, and OM have been the best by far. Keep in mind they missing their best hitter. We aren't in the same galaxy lineup wise

[BeardoMSU]

Luke 0-14 is yikes....after our 1 2 3 guys, we're just a black hole.

[confucius say]

How you pitch to leatherwood there is beyond me. With baker on deck who has been lost. Just unbelievably bad

[KOdawg1]

We're probably the 5th best team in the SEC. Maybe 6th.

[msstate7]

God, will you please avenge the wind that you killed us vs OM in football in the 80s here... please let this normal easy fly all be pushed out by a biblical wind.

lol

[KOdawg1]

And now we get something going, and they're going to do just enough to keep giving me hope. Shit.

[Bdawg]

Ok Hatch. You are DUE!!!!!!

[maroonmania]

Hatcher gonna go yard!***

[msstate7]

We're probably the 5th best team in the SEC. Maybe 6th.

That's pretty damn good

[BuckyIsAB****]

Holy shit

[Bulldog1]

That's more like it

[bobtail bob]

How you pitch to leatherwood there is beyond me. With baker on deck who has been lost. Just unbelievably bad

I was screaming at the tv , dam near woke my grand baby?s nap, walk him!!!

[msstate7]

Forsythe, I didn't blame you a bit for taking a ball off the shoulder last time, but here, don't you dare move.

[WinningIsRelentless]

Sims needs to be sitting on going either starting the 7th or ready to come in at an point.

[Bdawg]

Bottom guys got to step up now!!!

[msstate7]

Bottom guys got to step up now!!!

Need some help... bb or hbp

[maroonmania]

Gotta be swinging on that one.

[msstate7]

Dubrule can't hit velocity. Well this guy is a junk pitcher. Surely he can do something with junk

[KOdawg1]

I was getting ready to rip Lemonis for not pinch hitting Leggett for Dubrule with the match up there, but I continue to show my ignorance.

[maroonmania]

Dubrule!!

[BuckyIsAB****]

WOW

[BuckyIsAB****]

Dubrule can't hit velocity. Well this guy is a junk pitcher. Surely he can do something with junk

Touche

[Bulldog1]

Big time AB from Dubrule

[msstate7]

Dubrule can't hit velocity. Well this guy is a junk pitcher. Surely he can do something with junk

Atta f'n boy

[Bulldog1]

Do it again Rowdey

[Bulldog1]

Need to make em pay right here

Come on Allen

[bobtail bob]

Now make this clown throw some strikes

[Bdawg]

Need some help... bb or hbp

Did enough. Now TA up in big spot!!

[msstate7]

I owe this team an apology. They aren't great hitters, but they got some damn heart. Now rowdey, you got talent... be the man here

[KOdawg1]

Please make me eat my words

[msstate7]

I owe this team an apology. They aren't great hitters, but they got some damn heart. Now rowdey, you got talent... be the man here

Allen, I found the beer

[msstate7]

msstate7, you dumb f'n douche... shut the hell up! State is gonna win this

[maroonmania]

Atta boy Tanner!

[Bdawg]

You damn right TA!!!!!!!!!!

[mparkerfd20]

TA is da man!!

[BuckyIsAB****]

He is the dawg

[KOdawg1]

I love crow

[msstate7]

I am so proud of this team esp dubrule

[bobtail bob]

Pop atop again!!!!

[Bulldog1]

Underrated*

[Bdawg]

Ok. This ain't over!! Now you stud bullpen, bring us home!!!

[maroonmania]

I am so proud of this team esp dubrule

Well its by no means over but I never thought we would get 7 runs the way it was looking.

[KOdawg1]

Keep the ball down.

[Bdawg]

Please no walk from here on in

[msstate7]

Gotta hold em to no more than 1. Get sims ready

[somebodyshotmypaw]

Let me tell you, the game wasn’t over when Ole Miss led 4-2. Anyone with baseball knowledge knew this, although many on here were calling it over. And it’s not over now with our 7-4 lead. We have to keep battling.

[maroonmania]

Put Sims in now!

[BeardoMSU]

Sigh....here we go.

[mparkerfd20]

Shitty pitching fixing to hand it right back to them

[Bdawg]

Got to give credit on that one Hatch

[BeardoMSU]

Nice Hatch!

[KOdawg1]

The mother17ers are trying to give me a heart attack.

[Bdawg]

We just can't help ourselves

[BeardoMSU]

My god we just can't make it easy on ourselves...

[Bulldog1]

Now Sims needs to pitch the 8th and 9th

[maroonmania]

Whoo!!

[BeardoMSU]

The Heart Attack Dawgs.....jeez, thank Christ.

[msstate7]

My god we just can't make it easy on ourselves...

2 really good teams going at it

[VandelayIndustries]

Sims has to come in at least in the 9th

[maroonmania]

Really nice clean play by James on that well hit ball.

[Bdawg]

Hancock slumping for sure.

[Commercecomet24]

Proud of Hatcher today, he's brung it today!

[maroonmania]

Hancock slumping for sure.

Yep, had a 2-0 count and went after what was probably ball 3.

[KOdawg1]

If Hatch drives this run in, I'll publicly apologize to Rex when he gets back

[Commercecomet24]

2 really good teams going at it

Don't you just love it? This is how baseballs supposed to be!

[maroonmania]

Dang, how about running rather than admiring your hit! Very lucky he wasn't out at 2nd.

[Bdawg]

Dang Tanner!! Run!! Ha ha

[msstate7]

Don't you just love it? This is how baseballs supposed to be!

NO, it's stressing me out!!! Haha... I'm kidding, but kinda not

[Commercecomet24]

If Hatch drives this run in, I'll publicly apologize to Rex when he gets back

Well let's not get crazy 😂

[msstate7]

If we gonna get beat, get beat with our best, sims

[Commercecomet24]

NO, it's stressing me out!!! Haha... I'm kidding, but kinda not

Naw man this is awesome! Of course more awesome when we win!

[Commercecomet24]

If we gonna get beat, get beat with our best, sims

Yeah gotta get sims in there, soon!

[R2Dawg]

We're probably the 5th best team in the SEC. Maybe 6th.

Not, we are on the verge of out playing OM 2 of 3.

[BeardoMSU]

Brandon Smith in to pitch.

[msstate7]

Not, we are on the verge of out playing OM 2 of 3.

I never thought 5-6th best team in sec was insulting. Hell, the 5-6th best sec team could be in Omaha

[Really Clark?]

Yes! Big k

[KOdawg1]

Here we go

[BeardoMSU]

2 out single....

[msstate7]

Oh boy

[BeardoMSU]

Holy shit.

[VandelayIndustries]

My god James

[msstate7]

Where sims?

[maroonmania]

Dang Kamren!

[mparkerfd20]

What a cluster freak

[BeardoMSU]

Why do we do this to ourselves...

[Really Clark?]

#*^€!!!!!!

[SilentSteel16]

May have been addressed but did an Ole Miss pitcher mess up the M over S on the pitcher mound?

[Commercecomet24]

Big mistake by Kam there.

[Bdawg]

James having a really bad day

[KOdawg1]

We're very blessed they only got one out of that. Try to get some insurance, and bring Sims in to shut the door vs the heart of their order

[maroonmania]

Why not bring in Landon for 4 outs????

[msstate7]

Well, I didn't think it would be easy

[BeardoMSU]

Ugh....at least that's over. 2 runs feels razor thin.

[maroonmania]

Boy, talk about a gift run. We just aren't exactly solid on defense.

[Commercecomet24]

Way to pick em up there Brandon! Now get Sims for 9th!

[Bdawg]

That could play big but we should be able to go to Sims.

[Eric Nies Grind Time]

Good inning from Smith.

[R2Dawg]

I never thought 5-6th best team in sec was insulting. Hell, the 5-6th best sec team could be in Omaha

Not that it is insulting just if we are 5-6 then where is OM whom if it holds we outplayed 2 of 3? Just not accurate

[maroonmania]

Well, I didn't think it would be easy

No, we always make sure of that it seems like. We can't stand prosperity.

[KOdawg1]

Hello Mr. Dubrule. We've been waiting for you to show up.

[msstate7]

Dubrule turned on 94 there. He has had a nice day

[Commercecomet24]

Not that it is insulting just if we are 5-6 then where is OM whom if it holds we outplayed 2 of 3? Just not accurate

Yeah, Top 5 team in the country, be second in sec west if we win today,says we are better than 5-6.

[Commercecomet24]

Dubrule turned on 94 there. He has had a nice day

Yeah we need him to get going too.

[KOdawg1]

Think about how good we could be if Hatcher and Dubrule get going. Completely changes the outlook for this team.

[msstate7]

Yeah we need him to get going too.

I'm still hopeful on him. You don't get the amount of hits in his career with no talent. Hopefully he's adjusting to much better pitching

[Commercecomet24]

I'm still hopeful on him. You don't get the amount of hits in his career with no talent. Hopefully he's adjusting to much better pitching

Same here, he's got history on his side

[KOdawg1]

Alright Kam, here's your chance to make up for all your strikeouts and error today

[maroonmania]

Boy, first pitch to KJ right over the heart of the plate.

[KOdawg1]

Finish.

[maroonmania]

Well, had everything set up there to add some insurance runs after giving away a run in the 8th and didn't do it. Hope we don't need it.

[KOdawg1]

2 MORE

[starkvegasdawg]

Over 34,000 for the weekend.

[maroonmania]

Good gosh our defense sucks!!

[msstate7]

Landon sims is a BA.

We just beat a really f'n good team, boys. We are a really good team. Sorry for doubting you, dawgs

[maroonmania]

My word we can't do anything easy. Errors, errors, errors. Thank you Tanner Allen!! And Landon Sims!

[Commercecomet24]

Huge win! GTHOM!

[Bulldog1]

Landon sims is a BA.

We just beat a really f'n good team, boys. We are a really good team. Sorry for doubting you, dawgs

Yep. Not always the prettiest, but they get the job done.

[Bdawg]

Huge win! GTHOM!

Seconded!!!!

[Commercecomet24]

Yep. Not always the prettiest, but they get the job done.

Yep and that's all that counts! Just Win baby!

[Percho]

Did you all notice how many balls on the ground that OM center fielder does not handle clean?

[R2Dawg]

Landon sims is a BA.

We just beat a really f'n good team, boys. We are a really good team. Sorry for doubting you, dawgs

Yeah We are darn good team; folks need to quit poor mouthing us. We spanked them again with 12 hits for a team that can't hit. We played sloppy too, could have beat them bad. This team can make a run, don't need to say that again. Dang we are MSU for goodness sakes.

[basedog]

We Are A Baseball School!

[KOdawg1]

Never had any doubts.

[BeardoMSU]

Jeez that was stressful. Our guys just don't quit, and Rowdy has been a tour de force since SEC play started. If we can just cut out the easy bullshit, it would go a long to not taking years off my life, lol.

[Commercecomet24]

We're a great team fellas just get used to it!
