Omaha Game Thread - MSU v Texas

[Rex54]

Let's go Sims!

[RocketDawg]

Great performance by Bednar. Couldn't be any better.

[magrooder]

GREAT game Bednar.

[Really Clark?]

Freaking outstanding Bednar!!!

[maroonmania]

Awesome performance!

[Activated Alpha]

Ok Sims. Need you to be sharp. These guys can still rake

[BeardoMSU]

Its Landon's game now.

[preachermatt83]

What an outing

[maroonmania]

Basically we have no setup men that we can trust. So in comes Sims.

[magrooder]

Lets go Landon!

[CadaverDawg]

Damn shame, that was a strike

[Lord McBuckethead]

Lets go Sims. Lets go.

[RocketDawg]

Ok Sims. Need you to be sharp. These guys can still rake

He is - looks like he's pumped too.

[Really Clark?]

88??? I think that gun is off

[Rex54]

Clark looks lost

Hatcher is available

[RocketDawg]

You can tell the announcers are actually in the press box.

[Activated Alpha]

No walks Sims

There we go Sims!! The ump owes us that strike with the ball on Bednar

[PMDawg]

I'm about to vomit.

[Rex54]

**** yeah!!!

[maroonmania]

Thanks to our stupidity now we have Forsythe leading off.

[RocketDawg]

3 straight strikes after 3 straight balls. That's some pitchin'.

[magrooder]

Got a little pay back on that second strike, but we'll take it

[BeardoMSU]

Landon shows the **** up in the 7th (with some help from the ump, lol). 6 outs way, fellas.

[Percho]

Forsythe gonna get his first WS hit.

[magrooder]

Thanks to our stupidity now we have Forsythe leading off.

He's due.

[BeardoMSU]

3 straight strikes after 3 straight balls. That's some pitchin'.

1 of those was a gift, but I'll take it, lol. Guys that have a reputation often get the benefit of the doubt.

[PMDawg]

He's due.

He's been "due" all season. Lol

[sleepy dawg]

Yes, but also, there's nobody like Sims. Probably even when throwing 3 innings

[BeardoMSU]

3 straight strikes after 3 straight balls. That's some pitchin'.

1 of those was a gift, but I'll take it, lol. Guys that have a reputation often get the benefit of the doubt.

[mparkerfd20]

Lane gonna Lane.

[maroonmania]

He's due.

Or not

[Lord McBuckethead]

We need a new freshman to come in and take Forsythe job.

[magrooder]

Lane gonna Lane.

He should have bruises on his chest from bumping it so much

[PMDawg]

Lane's still due.

[preachermatt83]

We really really need to score one more run

[magrooder]

Rowdey with the seeing eye single

[RocketDawg]

Rowdey on with a single. Start of another rally.

[maroonmania]

THAT should have been the lead off hit. If Rowdey had gone strong out of the box he might even be at 2nd.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Look fellas, I don't care if Lane goes 0-24 in this tourney, as long as we win 5 straight.

[preachermatt83]

Let?s go!

[RocketDawg]

We need a new freshman to come in and take Forsythe job.

He's OK. Just a freshman. Wait til next year.

[maroonmania]

Lane's still due.

Lane will still be due when the season ends.

[PMDawg]

Great play by 1B

[magrooder]

Need another hit from Kam

[maroonmania]

Great play by 1B

Yep, Hancock could not have made that play.

[PMDawg]

He's OK. Just a freshman. Wait til next year.

Yeah, and I'm ok with it. His glove makes up for it.

[RocketDawg]

What was the ump doing there?

[magrooder]

What was that from the ump?

[MoreCowbell]

Hatcher is available

Would not be opposed

[BeardoMSU]

Jesus, ump.

[magrooder]

What a crock of shit called third strike.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Thats not a strike

[RocketDawg]

Terrible call on that last pitch. It was almost on the ground and way inside. He must've been making up for a previous call.

[maroonmania]

Ball at the ankles. Geez. I hate college umpiring.

[mparkerfd20]

Ball 4. Screw this ump!!!!!!!!

[Percho]

Well he has been bad for both, But that was terrible.

[Statecoachingblows**]

Garbage

[preachermatt83]

6 more outs

[Lord McBuckethead]

Wow. That was a ball. Ump bailed them out.

[EdwardDrayton]

Terrible third strike call on Kam.

[maroonmania]

Absolutely the worst call of the night.

[preachermatt83]

Lane will still be due when the season ends.

Hahaha +1

[smootness]

As long as he gives it to us, too, I won't complain.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Terrible call on that last pitch. It was almost on the ground and way inside. He must've been making up for a previous call.

Bednar got one earlier. Lets just call it even and hope he feels like he needs to give us one here in a bit.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Hahaha +1
I hope Lane has one hit in this tourney. The finals game winner.

[maroonmania]

Is Sims speed really down this much or is the gun off?

[Really Clark?]

Ok those were not below 90. That gun is off

[RocketDawg]

Assuming Sims goes 3 tonight, when we he be available next? Next game?

[RocketDawg]

I think the ump has been hitting the bottle between innings.

[CadaverDawg]

Is the gun wrong?

[SmokeyDawg]

I hope Lane has one hit in this tourney. The finals game winner.

That'd be some Luke Alexander type stuff

[Saltydog]

C'mon Lando. NO walks......

[Activated Alpha]

No walks Sims

There we go Sims!!

[maroonmania]

I think the ump has been hitting the bottle between innings.

He is all over the place now. Earlier I thought he was at least decent.

[RocketDawg]

Broke the strikeout streak.

[Percho]

He is all over the place now. Earlier I thought he was at least decent.

he gets worst each inning.

[Activated Alpha]

Come on State, need some baserunners and some runs

[RocketDawg]

He is all over the place now. Earlier I thought he was at least decent.

Me too. He was pretty good the first 6 or so innings.

[TrapGame]

He is all over the place now. Earlier I thought he was at least decent.

Probably low blood sugar. He needs a Snickers.

[Lord McBuckethead]

We going to need Clark to do better than 2 for his last 10 at bats with a single and a double. We need contact.

[bobtail bob]

I think the ump has been hitting the bottle between innings.

I know I am. I was posting in the super regional thread.

We need a couple more runs to make this liquor go down better

[CadaverDawg]

https://y.yarn.co/bc206ee7-ed91-4ed0-bc46-abce278bb83a_text.gif

[OLJWales]

I have an erection. Pass it along.

[BeardoMSU]

3 more outs with our best throwing.

[msstate7]

That was a nice play by Texas

[maroonmania]

Their 1B is killing us with all these defensive plays.

[RocketDawg]

I know I am. I was posting in the super regional thread.

We need a couple more runs to make this liquor go down better

Hahahaha. Will have to go over and see what you were saying.

[PMDawg]

I'm still about to vomit.

[magrooder]

UT first baseman is a play maker

[BeardoMSU]

I know I am. I was posting in the super regional thread.

We need a couple more runs to make this liquor go down better

[BeardoMSU]

Logan with 4 k's by himself? Jeez....

Hopefully that means he'll bounce back the next game.

[RocketDawg]

Let's just get through the bottom of the ninth.

[maroonmania]

OK, here we go.

[mparkerfd20]

LoTan I'm sorry but you suck arse lately.

[magrooder]

3 more outs

[CadaverDawg]

Worst I've ever seen the Tanner's look at the plate

[maroonmania]

Hopefully 2 is enough. Our baserunning in 2 different innings cost us any good chance to add more runs.

[Percho]

I thought a big coaching mistake was when Kam stole second we did not bunt him to third with Hancock.

[mparkerfd20]

3 Ks. Let's do this Lando.

[Bdawg]

Logan would rather not see another breaking ball today.

[msstate7]

Espn has bednar going 24th to braves. I'd like this

[preachermatt83]

Let’s get these 3 outs and get out of here!

[BulldogBear]

All right. Three outs away. I've broken out the Tiramisu and Beason Farms Chocolate milk. Let's see if it works.

[RocketDawg]

Well, was worried that might happen.

[magrooder]

Oh shit.

[Rex54]

Settle down let's get 3

[BeardoMSU]

Ok, here comes the puckering...

[Bdawg]

Logan with 4 k's by himself? Jeez....

Hopefully that means he'll bounce back the next game.

Breaking ball just murdering him

[sleepy dawg]

Put it up

[Activated Alpha]

Damn Sims. Come on now we need you sharp

[Bulldog1]

Here we go

[Rex54]

Assuming Sims goes 3 tonight, when we he be available next? Next game?

Yes. We have a day off tomorrow.

[Saltydog]

Damn, I'm nervous. C'mon Landon. Ends this thing.

[CadaverDawg]

Never easy when you're a MSU fan

[Bdawg]

I'll take a 2-1 win. Let's go!!!!

[PMDawg]

This isn't helping me to not vomit.

[Activated Alpha]

No walks Sims

There we go. Make up call

[RocketDawg]

Sims got rattled there. But he got a K call that was a ball, low.

[magrooder]

2 more

[BeardoMSU]

That prick threw his bat on a no doubter. **** you, lol.

[msstate7]

That was clearly a strike

[preachermatt83]

Now I’m about to vomit too

[msstate7]

Sims got rattled there. But he got a K call that was a ball, low.

I thought it was a strike

[RocketDawg]

1 more.

[magrooder]

One more.

[RocketDawg]

I thought it was a strike

Maybe I'm just pessimistic.

[Activated Alpha]

1 more Sims

[msstate7]

Make the damn call

[Rex54]

This is the worst umpiring I've seen in a while

[msstate7]

Maybe I'm just pessimistic.

It was at the knees

[magrooder]

Strike 4 still at bat

[msstate7]

Blue doesn't wanna end the game

[Bulldog1]

Where is that ump??

[magrooder]

Blue doesn't wanna end the game

Looking for some OT.

[Activated Alpha]

Come on Sims. No walks

[PMDawg]

This sucks. Ump extended the game.

[msstate7]

Come on Sims. No walks

Ball 2 and 3 were strikes

[Activated Alpha]

No walks Sims

[magrooder]

Should have been ballgame

[Activated Alpha]

17 you Ump. We got squeezed again

[BeardoMSU]

This ****ing ump...

[msstate7]

Sims got this

[maroonmania]

How many times does a guy have to strikeout??

[Really Clark?]

Needed to throw something inside. Everything was away. Yeah we got squeezed bad but pitch selection wasn't great late in the at bat

[preachermatt83]

I’m literally seconds away from crapping my britches.

[CadaverDawg]

I've never seen an ump totally steal a game from a team like this guy is trying to do right now

[PMDawg]

I’m literally seconds away from crapping my britches.

You're still holding it?

[Activated Alpha]

Damn Sims

[BeardoMSU]

****!!!

[Activated Alpha]

Runner on 1st and 3rd now

[Rex54]

This umpire couldn't ring them up twice! ****

[msstate7]

We're seeing why we should've extended sims during the season now

[Rex54]

Bitch ass umpire was too much of a ***** to do his job

[PMDawg]

This ump killed us.

[Activated Alpha]

Thank you Jesus!!

[RocketDawg]

Hooked 'em! Finally.

[magrooder]

sigh.

[Rex54]

Yes!

[mparkerfd20]

Hell yeah!!!!

[Really Clark?]

Yes!!! Whew...I'm tired. I'm hitting the showers

[RocketDawg]

My goodness, that was close. Gonna take a while to go to sleep.

[magrooder]

FuUmp.

[ScoobaDawg]

Revenge for 1985!

[Bdawg]

Hell yes!!! F you ump!!!!! Go home!!!

[msstate7]

Great win

[Activated Alpha]

Ump was trash. Complete trash

[BulldogBear]

That was an a-hole puckering last out

[PMDawg]

Wow, that was crazy! Happy Father's Day!

[starkvegasdawg]

Pass the defibrillator.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Horns down teasips

[RocketDawg]

Certainly no lack of excitement in this game. One of the best.

[sleepy dawg]

Wasn't sure I was gonna survive that. Can't even imagine what it feels like to play through a situation like that.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Good game. Got to make it interesting.

[magrooder]

That was definitely a stressful last half inning exacerbated by an umpire that clearly lost the zone. Great job Sims and Bednar. Need the bats to wake up Tuesday.

[msstate7]

Texas or tenn will be gone Tuesday

[lastmajordog]

Revenge for 1985!

NO, but it ?ain?t? bad... ......

[Cooterpoot]

My balls are soaking with sweat! That was tight!
Great job by pitchers and Mule came through.

[RocketDawg]

Pass the defibrillator.

Sorry, it's in use now.

[EdwardDrayton]

8-3 and 2-1. Who?s the REAL #2 bitches!!!!!

HAILSTATE!!!

[bobtail bob]

This team has been in that situation many times down the stretch this season. They won’t melt with the pressure. Pit tested

[mparkerfd20]

I still say screw Steve Mattingly!!!

[magrooder]

8-3 and 2-1. Who?s the REAL #2 bitches!!!!!

HAILSTATE!!!

I hope it's whomever we play in the Championship series.

[BeardoMSU]

Y'all still mad I forgot to start the game thread, lol? All part of the plan.**

[preachermatt83]

Ump literally almost cost us a game. No excuse for that.

[BeardoMSU]

I still say screw Steve Madden!!!

https://i.makeagif.com/media/5-23-2018/atA9qY.gif

[BeardoMSU]

Ump literally almost cost us a game. No excuse for that.

Absolutely. The lack of reliable quality in that role in inexcusable. Until we expand college baseball into a more meaningful sport nationally, it won't change though, sadly.

[mparkerfd20]

https://i.makeagif.com/media/5-23-2018/atA9qY.gif

Hail yeah!!!

[Lord McBuckethead]

Y'all still mad I forgot to start the game thread, lol? All part of the plan.**

Now I have to start the game thread from here on out. Man, that is some heavy responsibility.

[OLJWales]

The whole world can kiss my ass.

[BeardoMSU]

Now I have to start the game thread from here on out. Man, that is some heavy responsibility.

Hot potato!**

[Lord McBuckethead]

Ump literally almost cost us a game. No excuse for that.

I will say this though, atleast this guy made equally shit calls on both sides tonight. There were 2 or 3 batters on our side that should have struck out a couple pitches earlier too. All in all, the ump missed about 6 calls tonight. 3 for each team. Way, way, way better than usual, and I will add he maintained a simple reliable strike zone all night. It didn't grow and shrink and move up and down much if any.

[Lord McBuckethead]

And there really isn't a reason to complain when out dude struck out 21.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Does it bother anyone that not a single person on our team actually barreled one up tonight.

Hell we only hit a couple of pulled ball fouls with some conviction.

[Commercecomet24]

Our guys got some big stones. Let's go get the next one!

[chef dixon]

Does it bother anyone that not a single person on our team actually barreled one up tonight.

Hell we only hit a couple of pulled ball fouls with some conviction.

Nah. It's a blue chip prospect we went against. The UVA next man up will be punished

[Commercecomet24]

Does it bother anyone that not a single person on our team actually barreled one up tonight.

Hell we only hit a couple of pulled ball fouls with some conviction.

Facing a first round draft pick throwing out of the shadows stuff like that can happen. Found a way though and that's enough at this level of competition

[BeardoMSU]

Does it bother anyone that not a single person on our team actually barreled one up tonight.

Hell we only hit a couple of pulled ball fouls with some conviction.
They're really good; the top ranked team left in Omaha. And we faced their ace and best BP guy tonight. This game was basically a typically Friday night in the SEC. Classic pitching duel, and we won with our pitching. 21 ****in' K's.

[SmokeyDawg]

Does it bother anyone that not a single person on our team actually barreled one up tonight.

Hell we only hit a couple of pulled ball fouls with some conviction.

We're an opportunistic offense. I would have loved another run in the last couple innings but that was a great pitchers duel

[Percho]

Fins up------------------

[Bulldog1]

But Yancy say we gonna get exposed this week!!!!!

Haha

Great game

[BeardoMSU]

But Yancy say we gonna get exposed this week!!!!!

Haha

Great game

One day our shortness will backdoor us into a national championship, lol.

[BeardoMSU]

But Yancy say we gonna get exposed this week!!!!!

Haha

Great game

One day our shortness will backdoor us into a national championship, lol.

[terradawg]

Lets hope McLeod will mimic Bednar on Tuesday

[BeardoMSU]

Lets hope McLeod will mimic Bednar on Tuesday

He's due.

[Cowbell]

Does it bother anyone that not a single person on our team actually barreled one up tonight.

Hell we only hit a couple of pulled ball fouls with some conviction.

Similar to game 2 against Notre Dame. How was game 3?

[Lord McBuckethead]

He's due.
Yeah, I am waiting for the dude to throw back to back gems.

[starkvegasdawg]

One day our shortness will backdoor us into a national championship, lol.

You piqued Yancy's interest saying backdoor.

[Bdawg]

Does it bother anyone that not a single person on our team actually barreled one up tonight.

Hell we only hit a couple of pulled ball fouls with some conviction.

Yes but their guy is a stud too and our hitting has been up and down all year. Kinda is what it is. Just win baby.

[ScoobaDawg]

Yeah, I am waiting for the dude to throw back to back gems.

Alright.. it's on you to start the thread tonight...

[OLJWales]

Gene Morgan is avenged and The Rocket took it up the ass. All is well.
