Omaha Game Thread - MSU v Virginia

[Lord McBuckethead]

Alright. Here we go.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Hancock is going to have a homer tonight. 3 run.

[BuckyIsAB****]

So this dude is pretty much Cerantola

[starkvegasdawg]

Currently, there is a line of strong to severe storms about 75 miles from Omaha moving that direction. At current speeds they will get there in about 3 hours or smack dab in the middle of the game. This timing would make it a bullpen game for both clubs regardless of how the starters are doing.

Who would that favor?

Appears to be moving into more stable air... And more ese instead of due Se.

I don't see a long delay.

[R2Dawg]

Great opportunity in front of us. Time to cash in. We have the team to get it done.

[msstate7]

88, 88... is that fastball?

[BuckyIsAB****]

When is the last time we scored in our first AB

[msstate7]

He's carving us up

[msstate7]

Boy, we looked overmatched

[BuckyIsAB****]

Boy, we looked overmatched

Its one AB but that was not very encouraging.

[VandelayIndustries]

It’s one inning

[ScoobaDawg]

Bad start. Make him make mistakes with more pitches. Don't let him hone in and get in a rhythm.
9pitches... Ugh

[Lord McBuckethead]

Well three weak ass swings to start.

[msstate7]

It’s one inning

Yeah, it is. I'm looking at the soft contact though. We're seeing the ball, but it's moving on us.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Bad start. Make him make mistakes with more pitches. Don't let him hone in and get in a rhythm.
9pitches... Ugh

Hard to when every hitter was behind immediately. We need to look to drive the ball. 0-2 count we are too much in protect mode.

[maroonmania]

Weak contact in our first AB. Hope we score more than 2 tonight. If we don't, we won't win.

[msstate7]

Hard to when every hitter was behind immediately. We need to look to drive the ball. 0-2 count we are too much in protect mode.

That's the thing... will he throw strikes? He can just about bank on us not swinging 0-0, so chance to get up 1 strike every AB

[msstate7]

He got a good swing on every pitch

[Bdawg]

Fastball down the middle stroked.

[maroonmania]

Well, that didn't take long.

[PMDawg]

Poor 1st by the top of the lineup.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Mac catching a lot of the plate. That guy guessed right on every pitch.

[msstate7]

What a pathetic offense. Please don't lose to this clown crap

[Bdawg]

Throw down the middle and you will get pounded

[maroonmania]

MacLeod not fooling anyone at the moment.

[RocketDawg]

Looks like McLeod doesn't have his stuff tonight. Seems like he always needs an inning or two to settle the nerves, and by that point runs have scored.

[msstate7]

Even that pop up was in the air like 6 seconds. He killed that ball, but got under it

[Lord McBuckethead]

Forsythe just lets that one go through. No dive. It was play that could have been made.

[Bdawg]

Least they are swinging. Keep pitch count low hopefully.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Throw down the middle and you will get pounded

Yep. Catching dead center every strike.

[maroonmania]

Least they are swinging. Keep pitch count low hopefully.

If MacLeod doesn't start locating his pitches better he won't have to worry about pitch count because he won't last that long.
;

[Lord McBuckethead]

Get the K.

[msstate7]

They gave us 1 out.

[HoopsDawg]

Bring in Hootie.

[KOdawg1]

Get the bullpen up. Mac hasn't had it for some time now.

[Dawgology]

Didn?t like starting MacCloud this game. Still don?t like it. He?s not been good for about a month now.

[Bdawg]

Forsythe just lets that one go through. No dive. It was play that could have been made.

That's a stretch. Geez.

[BeardoMSU]

What is Mac's deal?

[mparkerfd20]

Headcase

[maroonmania]

Should have started Harding. :(

[BuckyIsAB****]

I saw this coming from Mac

[Bdawg]

If MacLeod doesn't start locating his pitches better he won't have to worry about pitch count because he won't last that long.
;

Yep

[Lord McBuckethead]

Lets go ahead and get the next guy up and throwing. This is looking 2-0 here quickly.

[ZedFedder]

Some of y’all live and die by each pitch, which is certainly interesting in this sport.

[KOdawg1]

Get his 17ing ass out of there

[PMDawg]

Virginia is just destined to win the whole thing. You got a guy who goes 0-5 with an ERA over 6 pitching like Randy Johnson during the post season, and a freshman crushing a good breaking ball like it's nothing for an RBI.

[BeardoMSU]

That's a stretch. Geez.

He is related to Peter Dorn, btw.**

[HoopsDawg]

This game is so critical. We have a great pen. We can't let this game get out of hand with Mac.

[RocketDawg]

Hate to say it but McCleod needs to come out now. He's way too nervous.

[Bdawg]

Mac is f-ing head case. I'm sick of his s***

[mparkerfd20]

Damnit headcase, you're killing us.

[Lord McBuckethead]

Dammit. This guy is batting. 250 mac

[Activated Alpha]

Mac ain?t got it tonight. He just needs to get out of this inning. No walks Mac

[msstate7]

Some of y’all live and die by each pitch, which is certainly interesting in this sport.

Virginia doesn't seem to give up runs, so maybe you should too. 2 runs allowed last 28 ip

[maroonmania]

BIG AB right here. Got to get out of this with just the 1 run.

[MaroonFlounder]

Losers bracket.

[PMDawg]

Shut Macleoud down for the year.

[Dawgology]

My god....MacCloud sucks. He shouldn?t be out there what a ****ing joke

[The Federalist Engineer]

Jay Powell is basically saying Mac is dog shit

Cant control his curve and they are feasting on his fastball

Basically

[HoopsDawg]

Thank goodness the wind was blowing in and they gave us an out. I would go to Hootie right away.

[Activated Alpha]

Damn. Whew that looked gone for sure

[maroonmania]

Whew. That was probably out of DNF.

[mparkerfd20]

I thought that was gone when it left bat

[Bdawg]

Virginia is just destined to win the whole thing. You got a guy who goes 0-5 with an ERA over 6 pitching like Randy Johnson during the post season, and a freshman crushing a good breaking ball like it's nothing for an RBI.

Sorry but that curve was down the gut.

[State82]

He better get this shit under control. Quickly. And if McGarry is on we are 17ed.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Thank goodness the wind was blowing in and they gave us an out. I would go to Hootie right away.

At DNF this was a 6 run inning

[Bdawg]

He is related to Peter Dorn, btw.**

Little harsh I think on that play. Clean base hit.

[maroonmania]

Hope Mac pulls it together. Either way we are going to have to get some offense going.

[DawgFromOxford]

Hopefully Mac will settle in now that the 1st is over

[Lord McBuckethead]

Mac is f-ing head case. I'm sick of his s***

He can do it. It is absolutely important for him to talk to Sims between innings and grow a sack. He needs to reach back and let it go. He is baby-ing every damn throw.

[NCDawg]

Hope we've got somebody warming up in the buillpen.

[msstate7]

I'd turn our guys loose on 0-0. He threw some 88 mph to get ahead in 1st

[PMDawg]

Something isn't right with our pitching coaching. Cerentola never got right, now Fristoe and even McLeod are Cerentola Jr.

[Dawgology]

Cloud needs to take the rest of the season to recoup or rest. He?s not the same pitcher from the beginning of the season.

[KOdawg1]

We're gonna make this trash pitcher look like a rock star

[The Federalist Engineer]

Virginia is just destined to win the whole thing. You got a guy who goes 0-5 with an ERA over 6 pitching like Randy Johnson during the post season, and a freshman crushing a good breaking ball like it's nothing for an RBI.

You fans in Omaha start talking to him. ?Hey you are Randy! How come your ERA is 6?

[Dawgology]

I'd turn our guys loose on 0-0. He threw some 88 mph to get ahead in 1st

We never...and I mean never...swing at the first pitch. Never.

[RocketDawg]

He can do it. It is absolutely important for him to talk to Sims between innings and grow a sack. He needs to reach back and let it go. He is baby-ing every damn throw.

Maybe he should take a Xanax before the game starts.

[msstate7]

We're gonna make this trash pitcher look like a rock star

He's only trash when he doesn't locate. When he locates, he's really good. This is why I wish we hadn't given up on EC. When it clicks, you have a huge bullet

[Bdawg]

He better get this shit under control. Quickly. And if McGarry is on we are 17ed.

You know he will throw the game of his life, right?

[HoopsDawg]

Logan just runs out of bat on those outside pitches.

[maroonmania]

Well, that was our best contact right there.

[HoopsDawg]

This pitcher looks incredible so far.

[Interpolation_Dawg_EX]

Going to be a long night. Our starting pitcher is mentally weak and we can't hit.

[msstate7]

Well, that was our best contact right there.

Still didn't like the AB. He was late as hell on 2-0 fastball. What the hell
Was he looking for

[ScoobaDawg]

alright boys... i'm home and drinks poured. lets do this
come on mule.

[maroonmania]

Well, we just broke up the perfect game.

[msstate7]

Ok, maybe that reminds this guy he can't throw strikes. Swing 0-0 if it's a strike, brad. Might groove one

[HoopsDawg]

sitting 96 FB, 82 slider with tons of bite, 84 change to lefties. Whew. I hope he loses his control.

[RocketDawg]

UVa pitcher getting wild.

[msstate7]

Make it be a strike, brad

[Bdawg]

That damn 88 first inning went to 96 now.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Cloud needs to take the rest of the season to recoup or rest. He?s not the same pitcher from the beginning of the season.

Rest, you say. he is a 3rd year freshman. He rested a long while before this season. Only pitched 18 innings or so in 2020

[HoopsDawg]

If Mac walks this first batter or gets barrelled...go get him. We aren't winning this thing from the losers bracket.

[ScoobaDawg]

damnit mule. had him teethering and he pulled back. at least they got the count up this inning.

[msstate7]

This is why you don't give up on talent. I'll never understand why we didn't find some innings for EC

[maroonmania]

That damn 88 first inning went to 96 now.

Guess he was just warming up. Clark and Forsythe will be auto outs for this guy unless they can walk and they are up next.

[msstate7]

That damn 88 first inning went to 96 now.

Probably bad reading in 1st

[Dawgology]

Pitiful

[Bdawg]

Damn how come cerantola could figure his s*** out? He should be a freaking stud for us now!!

[Activated Alpha]

Need Mac to have a quick inning this inning

[BuckyIsAB****]

Please God

[msstate7]

Damn how come cerantola could figure his s*** out? He should be a freaking stud for us now!!

Hard to when you don't get chances

[CadaverDawg]

We're in trouble. We left our bats in Starkville. Can't win shit if you can't score. Our guys are all looking for someone else to get it done

[Dawgology]

Guess he was just warming up. Clark and Forsythe will be auto outs for this guy unless they can walk and they are up next.

We really need to find of SS that can bat...

[calidawg]

Hard to when you don't get chances

Spare me, he had plenty of chances

[KOdawg1]

The moment is too big for him. Get him out before it's too late

[HoopsDawg]

GO GET HIM NOW! This isn't the SEC tournament.

[Activated Alpha]

No walks Mac

[HoopsDawg]

Thank you UVA for the free outs. We need them.

[Bdawg]

Going to be a long night. Our starting pitcher is mentally weak and we can't hit.

Got to keep it close and hopefully chase him.

[CadaverDawg]

Virginia has pitchers getting better, we have one getting worse.

[ScoobaDawg]

take the out and leave that guy right there

[maroonmania]

They don't expect us to score much. Appear they are happy with 1 run here and there. Lead off walks are killers.

[KOdawg1]

Lol he's so trash

[Dawgology]

Get this fella off the mound. Good grief. We waving the white flag already???

[mparkerfd20]

Not our night

[ScoobaDawg]

another damn double. 2-0

[HoopsDawg]

Lemonis and Foxall, you are going to cost us. Go get him now!!! Hootie is better.

[ScoobaDawg]

Getting Harding up..

[R2Dawg]

This is why you don't give up on talent. I'll never understand why we didn't find some innings for EC

Been saying that all year. Top 5 pick in preseason. You can't give up. He would be no worse than tonight.

[Activated Alpha]

Lead off walks score Mac. Go get him

[starkvegasdawg]

Get Braveheart out.

[maroonmania]

They are right on everything Mac throws.

[CadaverDawg]

We're done. 2 is more than we'll score all week against Sandy Koufax

[Dawgology]

Yeah Lemonis throwing in the towel leaving this guy in hahaha. Lame.

[msstate7]

Spare me, he had plenty of chances

Since his LSU debacle, he got 3 appearances in sec play vs OM, mizzou, and Florida...

2.2 ip 1 h 0 er 2 bb 2 k

[Bdawg]

Get this fella off the mound. Good grief. We waving the white flag already???

Tells me a lot when they are sack hunting this early. They figure we can't score.

[HoopsDawg]

Preston up. I guess we are saving Hootie for the elmination game.

[ScoobaDawg]

Nope.. PJ is throwing

[msstate7]

Lemonis and Foxall, you are going to cost us. Go get him now!!! Hootie is better.

I think RHP is the better decision

[CadaverDawg]

Kinda wonder about Foxhall's development. MacLeod regressing, Cerentola can't improve at all, Fristoe regressed.

[KOdawg1]

Leave his ass in there Lemonis. That's smart

[Lord McBuckethead]

This damn game isn't over, but mac needs to be moved to the bullpen for the rest of his time in Starkville.

[DownwardDawg]

Turned it off. Going outside to sit and sweat. We'll win.

[R2Dawg]

Embarrassing

[Rex54]

Get him the **** out of there.

[Hambone]

We get it Cerantola is your Hatcher. He isn’t on the travel roster. You won’t see him pitch.

[HoopsDawg]

Unreal.

[starkvegasdawg]

Well I'll be sodomized with a rusty jackhammer.

[RocketDawg]

Lemonis has left him in too long.

[BeardoMSU]

Back2Back2Back shitty starts, Mac. Good job.

[The Federalist Engineer]

Very hittable change up and a curve that don’t curve

This guy can only pitch to Jackson State … please make this guy go away … stop the pain

[ScoobaDawg]

just not his night. hard hit balls.

[msstate7]

Some things are constant... we make CWS. We choke in CWS

[CadaverDawg]

Way to step up MacLeod

[Activated Alpha]

That is game. Our offense is nonexistent

[State82]

That should do it

[R2Dawg]

Turned it off. Going outside to sit and sweat. We'll win.

Bout to do the same.

[HoopsDawg]

I think RHP is the better decision

Hootie is a better pitcher than Mac. But I will take any one other than B. Smith right now.

[KOdawg1]

This damn game isn't over, but mac needs to be moved to the bullpen for the rest of his time in Starkville.

He just needs to move on. He's progressively gotten worse and he can't mentally handle it. Just let him go

[Maroonthirteen]

Leave his ass in there Lemonis. That's smart

I agree. I wouldn't use any of my good bullpen arms until State shows they can hit the ball.

We can bring in Roger Clemons in his prime and still lose 3-0 if we don't hit the damn ball.

[Lord McBuckethead]

I really want it to be 4-0 before we get Mac out of the game.

[CadaverDawg]

Game will be out of hand before we get him out. Playing like it's a Friday night in April...except MacLeod was good in Alril

[Rex54]

Kinda wonder about Foxhall's development. MacLeod regressing, Cerentola can't improve at all, Fristoe regressed.

I think we attribute too much on the coaches. Mac is on Mac.

[mparkerfd20]

Damn we make horrible coaching decisions

[BeardoMSU]

Trash. Go get his ass, ffs!

[Rex54]

Why is that ****er still pitching?

[Dawgology]

I?ve got questions about Foxhall. Don?t understand the hype. Hope to see some changes in the pitching staff during the offseason.

[Maroonthirteen]

Put in Cerentola. Don't use a good arm for this game.

[The Federalist Engineer]

The NCSU strategy is let Mac get torched for 20 and save the staff.

he’s looking good for a 20th round pick

[HoopsDawg]

Wow, 4 runs. Only the bunt out recorded. Stuff doesn't look good. They are on every pitch. And Lemonis is finally getting off the bucket.

[CadaverDawg]

I agree. I wouldn't use any of my good bullpen arms until State shows they can hit the ball.

We can bring in Roger Clemons in his prime and still lose 3-0 if we don't hit the damn ball.

This. Put in Cerentola

[ScoobaDawg]

and he done. horrible. bats can overcome this though. gotta chase their dude.

[Activated Alpha]

Ok so I mean now you get him?

[Interpolation_Dawg_EX]

This is like breaking the all-time SEC passing record against LSU and then following it up with Arkansas.

[PMDawg]

Well, on the bright side, we'll never have to watch this clown pitch again.

[HoopsDawg]

Damn we make horrible coaching decisions

I'm getting tired of outcoaching Lemonis from my fcking couch.

[R2Dawg]

We blew this game in all of 1.3 innings. Wow.

[CadaverDawg]

Thanks Coach. Bucket was too comfy for you to waddle out there at 2-0?

[Rex54]

We HAVE to win this game. Should have gone to PJ after 2-0. God damnit

[Bdawg]

just not his night. hard hit balls.

Just not his month.

[RocketDawg]

I'm no coach, but I think Lemonis is leaving him in just for his psyche. And we're down 4 runs already - pretty much out of hand unless we can somehow get to their pitcher.

[Lord McBuckethead]

What a quality start. Serving up BP in game 2 of the CWS is exactly how we all knew this would go. Damn.

[maroonmania]

Well, we can't win if Mac cant start and be effective. Bednar and Harding are not enough. And we don't even really have a 4th or 5th starter.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Hasnt been good since Friday night vs Alabama. We wont sniff 4 runs without walks and errors

[HoopsDawg]

This. Put in Cerentola

Dude, Cerantola isn't on the CWS roster. You guys with the Cerantola stuff are hilarious.

[ScoobaDawg]

I really want it to be 4-0 before we get Mac out of the game.

same. and it happened.

what happened to c mac that was so good in the first half.

[Activated Alpha]

Thing is I doubt the bats will overcome a 4 run deficit. I have not seen anything so far in Omaha that indicates we will have good ABs

[FISHDAWG]

Very hittable change up and a curve that don?t curve

This guy can only pitch to Jackson State ? please make this guy go away ? stop the pain

This exactly ... it was obvious in the first inning

[BuckyIsAB****]

and he done. horrible. bats can overcome this though. gotta chase their dude.

Yeah right

[The Federalist Engineer]

Lemonis and Foxall, you are going to cost us. Go get him now!!! Hootie is better.

He sucked from the start - this was absolutely a waste.

Waste of ****ing time.

Jay Powell was calling this massacre from the start.

[KOdawg1]

This. Put in Cerentola
Cerantola is sitting in the crowd with me. He's not on the postseason roster

[Lord McBuckethead]

I'm no coach, but I think Lemonis is leaving him in just for his psyche. And we're down 4 runs already - pretty much out of hand unless we can somehow get to their pitcher.

Look, 4 runs is not an issue. We can score 4 runs to blank that. The issue is we need a pitcher that makes them think. Right now, they are sitting on every pitch. Every single one of them.

[BeardoMSU]

Just not his month.

Wtf happened to him? He has been awful.

[CadaverDawg]

That's Omaha. We had to have our starters get us 4-5+, without that we're toast. I went from thinking we may go to the Title series, to knowing we'll be out after Texas beats us Thursday

[msstate7]

We're in no man's land now... can't use your best arms is a game where you aren't likely to win. If they get up 6, you can't use anyone you'll need to get thru losers bracket

[Interpolation_Dawg_EX]

One thing is definitely obvious. Lemonis is not a candidate for the LSU job.

[CadaverDawg]

Cerantola is sitting in the crowd with me. He's not on the postseason roster

Should be MacLeod sitting next to you

[State82]

However comical it may have been, this will squelch any further Lemonis/LSU rumors. What a CF.

[PMDawg]

Great shift coach!

[CadaverDawg]

Dude, Cerantola isn't on the CWS roster. You guys with the Cerantola stuff are hilarious.

We're just saying don't waste good arms. Chill

[KOdawg1]

Should be MacLeod sitting next to you

I'm thankful for everything he's done for us but I hope today is the last day I see him in the maroon and white

[Dawg2003]

This is so on par for this team. Win a game and then play like shit the next game.

[BayouDawg]

I wont miss our starting pitcher from tonight next year. Thanks for being a bulldog but goodness gracious it?s pathetic

[ScoobaDawg]

I can't stand that dipshit #3 with his greasy hair that a helmet wont stay on

[Dawgology]

I'm thankful for everything he's done for us but I hope today is the last day I see him in the maroon and white

Same. He needs to not ever pitch for us again

[Activated Alpha]

No walks PJ

[RocketDawg]

Maybe he should trim his silky locks at least for baseball season.

[Rex54]

Again, we HAVE TO win this game.

[CadaverDawg]

Again, we HAVE TO win this game.

Well we aren't

[msstate7]

They've scored 4 runs in 1.1 ip, and they gave us 2 of those outs

[Dawg2003]

I don't think any of this matters if we only have 1 starter in Bednar and then Hootie. I can't see us beating any of the teams in the other bracket in a 2 of 3 series with what we've got.

[The Federalist Engineer]

That's Omaha. We had to have our starters get us 4-5+, without that we're toast. I went from thinking we may go to the Title series, to knowing we'll be out after Texas beats us Thursday

No, this is bad management.

If your pitcher is OBVIOUS dog shit. Why give away 4 runs before you pull him?

It’s not respecting the moment, fans, moment, or the opponent.

Dog shit management

[msstate7]

Well we aren't
Yup, we are who we are, and championships arent for Starkville

[BuckyIsAB****]

Well we aren't

This game was over when Lemonis left him in. Put Cade smith in and let me go to bed

[maroonmania]

Again, we HAVE TO win this game.

Well, so far they have as many runs against us as we have gotten outs against them.

[BayouDawg]

They've scored 4 runs in 1.1 ip, and they gave us 2 of those outs

Amazing what a good hitting coach can do. Especially to a rattled pitcher.

[ScoobaDawg]

well fudge. hbp bases loaded.
1 out

[State82]

Ray Charles could see this from the start of the 2nd. But alas, our well paid staff could not.

[Activated Alpha]

Damn PJ. Not looking good either

[maroonmania]

Yup, we are who we are, and championships arent for Starkville

Its ok, when we didn't get the foul call against Morgan and lost to ND I determined at that time I would never see an MSU NC in my lifetime.

[RocketDawg]

One thing is definitely obvious. Lemonis is not a candidate for the LSU job.

I was thinking the same. But in reality, one game wouldn't matter to them if they wanted to offer.

[PMDawg]

So we're really going to have a finals featuring two crappy ACC schools who sucked for 90% of the season?

[Lord McBuckethead]

Have the swung and missed the ball yet?

[HoopsDawg]

No, this is bad management.

If your pitcher is OBVIOUS dog shit. Why give away 4 runs before you pull him?

It?s not respecting the moment, fans, moment, or the opponent.

Dog shit management

correct. our coaches just hoped MacLeod was going to miraculously be on. Should have started hootie or had him ready to go. Mac should have been pulled after the leadoff walk to start the 2nd.

[ScoobaDawg]

BIG K 2 away. get the damn out anywhere

[Dawgology]

Ray Charles could see this from the start of the 2nd. But alas, our well paid staff could not.

The 2nd? Saw it coming when they announced MacCleod starting. College ball is too big for him.

[BayouDawg]

And then throw fast balls right down the pipe on 0-2. Genius strategy

[Activated Alpha]

One more out PJ

[maroonmania]

Got to get out of this at 4-0 to have a chance.

[KOdawg1]

Hey look, Preston looks good. If only we had gone to him before Mac shit himself out there

[Lance Harbor]

How is this staff so bad if they just set the season strikeout record?



I don't think any of this matters if we only have 1 starter in Bednar and then Hootie. I can't see us beating any of the teams in the other bracket in a 2 of 3 series with what we've got.

[Rex54]

Well we aren't
PJ gave us a chance there.

[ScoobaDawg]

correct. we just hoped MacLeod was going to miraculous be on. Should have started hootie or had him ready to go. Mac should have been pulled after the leadoff walk to start the 2nd.

It's quite clear now. we weren't playing hootie tonight. and it's the right choice. you need him for an elimination game.
Mac is a good pitcher but has been off lately.

BIG FUC**ING K there.

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

So we're really going to have a finals featuring two crappy ACC schools who sucked for 90% of the season?

I mean if you want ot go by the regular season you can crown Arkansas if you want. NCState and Virginia are solid teams to begin with and are red hot and that's all it takes

[RocketDawg]

Well, we got out of the inning. Hope Lemonis doesn't pull Johnson now.

[msstate7]

That's a big time job by Preston. Gotta score here

[Rex54]

How is this staff so bad if they just set the season strikeout record?

We're in Omaha dummy and won 20 league games. They can't be that bad.

[Activated Alpha]

Great job PJ!! Hopefully he can go 7 more with 15 SOs. Need some quality ABs by our bulldogs and get some runs back

[starkvegasdawg]

Did I just hear the 17ing Whistler?

[the_real_MSU_is_us]

It's quite clear now. we weren't playing hootie tonight. and it's the right choice. you need him for an elimination game.
Mac is a good pitcher but has been off lately.

BIG FUC**ING K there.

Wait, save the better pitcher for an elimination game? By that logic we shouldn't have started Bednar vs Texas. Play your best players and you won't need an elimination game

[maroonmania]

I don't think any of this matters if we only have 1 starter in Bednar and then Hootie. I can't see us beating any of the teams in the other bracket in a 2 of 3 series with what we've got.

Bednar and Hootie could win us 2 in a 2 of 3 series (just like we did with ND). But no way we get through a loser's bracket in Omaha with what we've got at the moment.

Good cut there

Well, Clark had his pitch there and fouled it.

I have no problem with Mac. He just doesn't have it. He doesn't and it's time to move on. But these overpaid professionals making decisions.....that is an entirely different situation.

[Dawgology]

Wait, save the better pitcher for an elimination game? By that logic we shouldn't have started Bednar vs Texas. Play your best players and you won't need an elimination game

Yes. Save your best pitchers until the off season. Next level genius strategy

[BayouDawg]

Maybe our hitters can hike up their skirts and pull out their tampons and get some damn hits. What the hell do we do in batting practice?

[R2Dawg]

Anyone remember when Clark last had a hit? He has been bad for a while now.

Hatcher should be starting at 1B. Hancock at DH.

[ScoobaDawg]

clark that was a foot outside damnit

[CadaverDawg]

Virginia staff would have Cerentola as a Friday night guy by now

[maroonmania]

Clark is a K machine right now. Strikes out on a pitch 6 inches off the plate

[Activated Alpha]

How would I know Clark was going to strike out?

[ScoobaDawg]

Hatcher should be starting at 1B. Hancock at DH.

shut the f*ck up already. it aint happening and you are trolling. i'll kick you ass to the curb again.

[CadaverDawg]

Clark is as bad as Forsythe now. I'm nauseous

[KOdawg1]

We're done. This is the most Mississippi State thing ever.

[ScoobaDawg]

lead off man needs to get on.
