SC game 3 thread - win a dang series

[msstate7]

Not a good start

[parabrave]

Dam good timing there 7.

[bulldogcountry1]

Wind is blowing out. SC is taking hacks.

Let?s see how many ground balls we hit.

[Activated Alpha]

For once I would like our pitchers to get out the of the 1st with less than 20 pitches

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Maybe start the Leadoff with a breaking ball or change up after seeing what he did with fastball yesterday?

[Activated Alpha]

Wind is blowing out. SC is taking hacks.

Let?s see how many ground balls we hit.

I just thought of that, we do not have too many pitchers that pitch to soft contact which correlates to more homers especially on days like today. Is USCe pitching a guy similar or one like Ross Mitchell?

[parabrave]

Wind is blowing out. SC is taking hacks.

Let?s see how many ground balls we hit.

There you go Clark grounds out.

[Activated Alpha]

Three quick groundouts

[CaptainObvious]

5 pitch inning for SC. 3 ground balls.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

GoTro sucks as bad as Foxhall. Take some damn pitches.

[parabrave]

Why are we swinging at the first pitch. We have 28 pitch 1st inning and they get out of the 1st with 5.

[msstate7]

Apparently this guy is a groundball machine. Hopefully babip god will favor us bc he seem poised to hit grounders

[parabrave]

Jeez another HR. Hint Hint/

[662dawg]

Wtf has happened to Dohm? My lord

[msstate7]

The braves start in 37 mins. This appears to be a back to reality game

[Activated Alpha]

Dohm will not make it past the 3rd inning with the wind blowing out today

[ZedFedder]

Is he tipping his pitches? Sheesh.

[Activated Alpha]

Does our lame duck of a pitching coach want to at least go out there and talk to him?

[msstate7]

Is he tipping his pitches? Sheesh.

He's throwing too many middle-middle.

[CaptainObvious]

I think it is the head bandanna he decided to wear today.🤣🤣🤣

[parabrave]

Wtf has happened to Dohm? My lord

Good coaching and research by SC. Jay said that SC seems to know what we are about to throw. Jay even said that Nate is trying to throw a pitch that he can't throw, and we get a lucky overturn.

[parabrave]

Hunt to the BP/

[msstate7]

Gotta get em out now

[BeardoMSU]

Jesus.

[ZedFedder]

I?m at the game and can?t see where he is locating. If it?s straight and they know FB is coming, they can sit on it.

[662dawg]

Dohm has been figured out. He's not been good in league play

[Activated Alpha]

He threw his elbow out there

[msstate7]

College baseball kinda sucks... why do hitters try to get hit with the ball?

[662dawg]

So we get to hit Casas & an out too 😁

[The Federalist Engineer]

Dohm has been figured out. He's not been good in league play

By opponents, Jay Powell, and Us

Not by Fox or Lemon

[msstate7]

So that dipshit just took a ball on his elbow only to be called out

[parabrave]

I?m at the game and can?t see where he is locating. If it?s straight and they know FB is coming, they can sit on it.

Thats what they were doing and somebody got smart and threw sliders

[662dawg]

Hail yea we made a throw from third AFTER catching it. We are Omaha bound... Boom.

[GolfDawg]

Surprised they overturned the call but I will take it!

[parabrave]

By opponents, Jay Powell, and Us

Not by Fox or Lemon

You must be listening to the broadcast also.

[msstate7]

Just 3-0... get a run here

[Activated Alpha]

Is this a game where we make the opposing pitcher look like Nolan Ryan?

[parabrave]

Yep but wait till we get in their BP.

[msstate7]

Appears more Greg maddux than Ryan

[msstate7]

Yep but wait till we get in their BP.

16 pitches thru 2

[parabrave]

Is this a game where we make the opposing pitcher look like Nolan Ryan?

And Greg Maddux/ 2 IP and only 16 Pitches.

[CaptainObvious]

This pitcher is exactly what you want. Very good off speed and a fast ball that moves away from the LH and in on the RH. Got to recruit these types of pitchers to get it back where we should be. There are some good high school teams right now that could hit our pitching. When your pitcher throws his fastball right at the exact height of a practice hitting Tee with no movement, don?t matter how fast it?s coming.

[662dawg]

Why can't we get 3rd inning Dohm every inning? Geez

[msstate7]

I love groundball pitchers, but I prefer k guys. Don't have to worry about babip and bad defense on a k.

[msstate7]

We gonna find some holes this inning

[Activated Alpha]

We gonna find some holes this inning

Not so fast

[msstate7]

Their SS is putting on a show

[CaptainObvious]

My point was more the movement on the fast ball. Just like Maddux used to do except Maddux only threw it 89-90. If we had this guy pitching to their guys they would also be hitting grounders!

[Activated Alpha]

This dude will throw a complete game on us

[msstate7]

If I were to face sec pitching, I think I'd look like highhill

[CaptainObvious]

Like the movement on that 3rd strike to Highfill. Although, Bugs Bunny could probably strike out Highfill.

[bulldogcountry1]

Once thru the lineup

6 ground outs
3 K
0 hits
0 balls in the air.

At this point I'm betting on you....

[msstate7]

Dohm hasn't been great, but 3 runs in 4 ip in game 3 is fine. This is an offense problem

[msstate7]

This Amazon commercial is weird AF

[662dawg]

Dohm has turned into a dominant SEC pitcher the last two innings lol.

[parabrave]

And we finally get one through.

[msstate7]

How about a walk or HBP? No DP

[parabrave]

Dohm has turned into a dominant SEC pitcher the last two innings lol.

Well someone figured out that they were sitting on FBs. And the Ump is giving the outside corner,

[msstate7]

SOB

[msstate7]

That change up was up, and Hines missed it. Damn

[Activated Alpha]

Two weak pop ups to left field. Not exactly where Gotro probably told them to hit it

[Leeshouldveflanked]

So Clark gets the first base hit. Larry first pitch swinging at an inside breaking ball for a weak pop up. Ledbetter does the same thing two pitches later. Hines weak bouncer to short on an 85 MPH splitter.

[msstate7]

The inning was crap, but 2 outs in the air and Hines missed a change up that was up. For a GB pitcher, that inning wasn't great. Maybe we gonna get em next inning

[Activated Alpha]

Great play by Alford

[Activated Alpha]

We need to chase this guy this inning. Cannot let him go 6+

[Activated Alpha]

Damnit Alford!! Not what we needed

[EdwardDrayton]

Lemo made the wrong decision there IMHO

[Activated Alpha]

Just get 1 Forsythe. Just get 1

[parabrave]

Well we are coming alive.

[Activated Alpha]

Getting tired of hearing that SS?s name

[msstate7]

Lemo made the wrong decision there IMHO

I'm not a bunt guy, but Vs a dominant GB pitcher, I'd have bunted

[GolfDawg]

Not sure how you don?t put the bunt on with 1st and 2nd with a ground ball pitcher.

[EdwardDrayton]

I'm not a bunt guy, but Vs a dominant GB pitcher, I'd have bunted

Yep

[GolfDawg]

This is the inning where if there?s any sign of trouble you have to go get Dohm. Esp with Loftin and KC available.

[Activated Alpha]

Keep the runner close because you know they are going to steal

[662dawg]

Oh man. This is a tough spot for Tapper

[msstate7]

Good job, Dohm

[662dawg]

This is the inning where if there?s any sign of trouble you have to go get Dohm. Esp with Loftin and KC available.

Pretty sure loftin isn't available

[BeardoMSU]

Nate did his job today.

[bulldogcountry1]

I'm not a bunt guy, but Vs a dominant GB pitcher, I'd have bunted

It is the things like that that tell me the game isn?t being managed well. On top of all the obvious issues, there is a moment in about every game where 95% of coaches would actually do something, like change pitchers, bunt, PH, etc. Lemonis just doesn?t do anything, or does it too late.

[GolfDawg]

Pretty sure loftin isn't available

Why not? I thought we didn?t use him midweek to save for the weekend

Just what I read elsewhere. Never saw why.

[Activated Alpha]

This 100%

I took it as Lemonis gambled that Alford might run into one since he had a great night last night. I am sure hindsight he would have bunted him, but I can see him taking a chance there

[BeardoMSU]

That a boy.

[Activated Alpha]

This is our inning boys!! Let?s put up 12 runs here

[EdwardDrayton]

Well he's doubling down on the decision

[Activated Alpha]

Now can we hit their closer from Thursday night?

I have been a bulldog baseball fan for a very long time. Bulldog physics typically state that if 4 guys start producing that did not before, we typically have 6 that begin to regress. Bulldog physics 101

[Activated Alpha]

Damn Hunt. Lead off walk goes to 3rd on the single

[Activated Alpha]

Yntema really? I thought we liked winning

[EdwardDrayton]

Leadoff walks <smh>

[bulldogcountry1]

We have no chance this season if a pitcher can do what Hunt is doing in the 7th and not get pulled.

There wasn?t even anyone warming in the pen.

[GolfDawg]

3b let that ball play him like a flute

[662dawg]

If Ynetma is put in this game at any point today we need to fire the whole 17n staff on the spot. Unless we go up 15 runs.

[Activated Alpha]

Hunt just loses it for some reason out of the blue. It is maddening

Gotta put the ball in play. It's getting late and Carolina sure doesn't want a series loss to us so the tension is building. They did not hold up well under pressure yesterday.

Nope.

If we didn't fire him this past Monday, we won't do it this one either after a much more competitive weekend.

Now we just have to hope that Keenum doesn't get cold feet in May like he did with Moorhead (before the fight)

[EdwardDrayton]

We put ourselves in a good place to win this one and then totally sabotaged it.

He will be fired after the season. This season can't end soon enough to get rid of him. Given the choice of me having HIV or lemonis as my coach, I'd choose HIV... I could at least live with HIV

[Activated Alpha]

Can this be our inning?

[Activated Alpha]

Has Ledbetter been in a funk lately? Damn. Hit it to anyone but their damn SS

Bases loaded no outs. About to get ugly.

[EdwardDrayton]

Hmmm. Bunting as a weapon. Imagine that.

[Activated Alpha]

Back to our suckiness. Oh well it was fun last night I guess

[msstate7]

Why are we even pitching Yntema in a competitive game?

This team had no one.
This team has no answers.
This team is trash.
This team is coached by a clown.

[GolfDawg]

Any hope left this season is dependent on Parker Stinnett with the bases loaded and no outs.

[bulldogcountry1]

There was not a single person, including the coaching staff and Yntema, that thought Yntema could get us through the 9th.

[msstate7]

I'm dumbfounded by how anyone could say we'd be in worse shape firing lemonis now. He's the worst coach in the sec, and it couldn't be any worse without him.

[maroonmania]

This team had no one.
This team has no answers.
This team is trash.

And now Stinnett? Geez. He is a human walk machine.

[WSOPdawg]

Why are we even pitching Yntema in a competitive game?

I know pitching is also more than just the # of pitches from your arm (a lot of lower body and leg stamina also being exerted), but would Lo Cijente as a LHP not have been more of an option (he only threw from the RH side Thursday night) than Yntema???

[662dawg]

No power, and an avg defender = sun belt player

It's why I've said I wish we would give Mershon son of his PT.

[EdwardDrayton]

Just infuriating to give games (and series) away like this.

[Activated Alpha]

Pitching Stinnett and Yntema in the 9th is a fireable offense

[662dawg]

Bases loaded & Stinnet comes in throwing all breaking balls & gives up a hit off the wall

[maroonmania]

I really wish Stinnett had not come back.

[msstate7]

Please fire lemonis now, please! I literally hate this guy. He's a total fraud

[msstate7]

It's why I've said I wish we would give Mershon son of his PT.

Can't make a move like that when we having so much success

[662dawg]

Pitching Stinnett and Yntema in the 9th is a fireable offense

Yup. I'd have thrown Siary, Gibbs, Cheatam(not as confident in him) or Logan Forsythe before either of them.

[662dawg]

Can't make a move like that when we having so much success

that's understandable for sure. We did have a 1 game SEC winning streak going.

[msstate7]

Lemonis has got to go. He built this pile of shit. It's him!!!! No one else... it's him! Fire his worthless ass postgame

[maroonmania]

Yep. He has definitely regressed this year

This is why I don't really want Foxhall or Lemonis back. The majority of our players seem to regress from one year to the next. Where would we be without transfers and freshmen?

[662dawg]

Red headed step children don't even get beat as bad as Parker Stinnett has today.

[BeardoMSU]

Wow. Great job, everyone.

[msstate7]

I hated Moorhead, but that hate doesn't come close to lemonis. I'd cut off my pinky to see his trash ass fired right now

[BuckyIsAB****]

You can see our effort decline when we know the pitcher sucks

[HoopsDawg]

If we fire Foxhall and keep Lemonis, I'm done.

[maroonmania]

Nobody better than Stinnett to throw gas on a fire. Lemonis and Foxhall are just dumb.

[msstate7]

If we fire Foxhall and keep Lemonis, I'm done.

Lemonis is the problem. This is his team.

[NCDawg]

I don't understand the point of leaving Stinnett in so long. Pretty obvious he didn't have it, was getting pounded, and now the game is totally out of reach.

[Activated Alpha]

Yeah bad coached game by Lemonis today. This is on him today

[msstate7]

[Activated Alpha]

Yeah think I am going to go back and watch the 21 season where we beat the shit out of USCe with a real team

[ZedFedder]

Listening to Jay Powell, you can hear just how frustrated he is. You can also tell he feels like he could do a way better job coaching than Foxhall.

Our offense is trash too. If we don't score in the bottom of the 9th that would make 7 of 9 SEC games with 5 or less runs. Just not good enough.

He did battle. I thought he was dog meat early.

Once you dial for Enema and Stinnett, it's already giving up. Today, the team needed Hunt and Nixon to be good. After that, there are no SEC people to call.

I do wonder why Loftin was not used, at all.

It was a bunt play luke was crashing it was Larry's cover.

[trob115]

To me it looked like Larry was looking at the runner to try to attempt a throw at 3b. I think he took his eye off if it.

[sandjunky]

I thought I remember that Jay said whoever was covering the base should've caught it and i assume it was Hancock/ But neverless it went downhill from there.

It was a bunt to move runners over to 2nd and 3rd
Bunt was just to the glove side of pitcher - fielded cleanly by pitcher

On that bunt, 3B stays home, pitcher covers 3b side, 1b crashes

All that worked - Larry was late to the bag and the throw was above his hands -more at the bill of his cap - it was a reactionary attempt to catch

Should?ve caught it but pitcher being so close should?ve gone underhanded

These days Jim is getting mad like us. Jay is basically saying that the staff is mismanaged and the approach is wrong.

Jay was fantastic to listen to. I had my 2 year old with me, and we left at the top of the 8th. When I cranked my truck to head home, it was the beginning of the 9th. He was done with it, man. You can tell he thinks Foxhall is an idiot.

Thanks!

That's why I wanted to listen to what he has to say. I like to cross reference my thoughts with MLB people if I can. Sounds like we both have the same general idea.

It was a bunt to move runners over to 2nd and 3rd
Bunt was just to the glove side of pitcher - fielded cleanly by pitcher

On that bunt, 3B stays home, pitcher covers 3b side, 1b crashes

All that worked - Larry was late to the bag and the throw was above his hands -more at the bill of his cap - it was a reactionary attempt to catch

Should?ve caught it but pitcher being so close should?ve gone underhanded

This, accept I think Larry was trying to look for the bag, either way he blew it.

Seems like we blow a lot of routine plays

Way too many, way too many.

Makes you wonder what we do during practice? Can?t field, can?t pitch, can?t run the bases, can?t hit half the time.
