Guvna Cup Thread?

[BeardoMSU]

Are we giving up or nah?

[WSOPdawg]

Anybody else having audio problems?

[sandjunky]

There?s a game tonight?

[Cloak]

Anybody else having audio problems?

Yeah I am too. I heard a sound effect after a foul ball but that was it.

[Leroy Jenkins]

No broadcast crew. Just the stadium announcer. No one wanted to do PxP for this shitshow.

[WSOPdawg]

Yep, apparently no game announcers ???

[Offshore Dawg]

You have the Jim & Ron show.

[BeardoMSU]

This is an embarrassing product. Really? No play by play? This venue has always sucked balls. No reason either of our programs shouldn't be subjected to this bush league bs. Go to Biloxi.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Hancock can hit into a Double Play, but he cant turn one on defense

[Pancho]

So it's his fault the pitcher didn't cover the bag in time even after Mershon struggled to step on the bag? You better stick to your story about your boy not making a team cuz his momma was ugly.

[Mjoelner34]

Hancock can hit into a Double Play, but he cant turn one on defense

There's bound to be a 6'2" to 6'4" LH 1st baseman somewhere in high school that shows enough promise with the glove and the bat that we could go after. Sorry righties, I'm tired of not seeing a LH at 1st.

[Pancho]

Siary should be pitching on the weekends.

Maybe the new HC can recruit a guy like that.

[EdwardDrayton]

Nope. Because no matter how bad things are overall, we're always juiced to beat the landshartbearbators!!

[EdwardDrayton]

And there it is. We've all just been treated to a productive mound visit.

[CaptainObvious]

Like I have been saying about our offense. They are extremely inconsistent. Leadoff guy is 0-2 with 2 Ks. And their pitcher has gotten Clark out by himself both times.

[EdwardDrayton]

It's beyond bad. The park announcer must have won a radio contest by being the fifth caller.

[CaptainObvious]

He is the Pearl High School Announcer. And I think he is the retired Worship leader at a Baptist Church in Pearl. Great guy.

[EdwardDrayton]

He is the Pearl High School Announcer. And I think he is the retired Worship leader at a Baptist Church in Pearl. Great guy.

I'm sure he was a much better worship leader.

[CaptainObvious]

He is essentially announcing a high school level game tonight, so he should feel right at home.

[CaptainObvious]

I feel pretty confident a a high school all star team could beat either of these collection of baseball uniform wearers.

[EdwardDrayton]

He is essentially announcing a high school level game tonight, so he should feel right at home.

Yeah unfortunately that's our truth.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Siary should be pitching on the weekends.

Why did we not bring him in for middle relief Sunday or Saturday against Auburn?

[662dawg]

No way ole miss hits Parker Stinnett here.

[Mjoelner34]

That may be the best inning Stinnett has ever had at MSU.

[Leroy Jenkins]

Why did we not bring him in for middle relief Sunday or Saturday against Auburn?

Because he's tabbed as the midweek starter.

[CaptainObvious]

Somebody get Slate Alford a cricket mallet to bat with.

Runner at 3rd with one out and he can?t put it in play.

[662dawg]

Luke Hancock with a double on a routine fly ball that landed right behind the left fielder lol

[Leroy Jenkins]

Lol. This is awesome baseball. Dropped 3rd Strike gets on base, advance on pickoff play error, can of corn lost by the LF scores a run.

[starkvegasdawg]

Luke Hancock with a double on a routine fly ball that landed right behind the left fielder lol

From a runner that got on first on a bad throw from the catcher after he struck out, stole second, and then got to third on a bad pick attempt.

[EdwardDrayton]

Lol. This is awesome baseball. Dropped 3rd
Strike gets on base, advance on pickoff play error, can of corn lost by the LF scores a run.

Been pondering which team seems more disinterested. Still pondering.

[Cooterpoot]

Disgraceful how far we've fallen.

[CaptainObvious]

Like I said. Offense is consistently inconsistent.

We making outs every way possible. We made 4 outs that inning but the first out actually reached first and eventually scored on what should have been the 3rd out. So the Confederates gave us 5 outs in the 6th and we still only squeezed 1 run out of it.

[Leroy Jenkins]

PFS looking like he does in practice.

[CaptainObvious]

What is our RPI after Auburn damn near swept us?

[Mjoelner34]

What is our RPI after Auburn damn near swept us?

I think I saw that it is 37 now.

[CaptainObvious]

Awful lot of week contact. Did all our guys start their transition process?

[Mjoelner34]

Jim just said a high fly to right on a ball to left field. I don't remember if it was earlier tonight or this past weekend we hit a grounder to 1st and he called it a grounder to 3rd.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Put SEC Caliber SS on our list of needs for next year.

[KOdawg1]

Jim just said a high fly to right on a ball to left field. I don't remember if it was earlier tonight or this past weekend we hit a grounder to 1st and he called it a grounder to 3rd.

Jim has lost a step or seven over the years

[CaptainObvious]

Pop up after pop up after pop up after pop up with the occasional ground out mixed in with a few strikeouts.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Stinnett will be back to his normal self this inning

[CaptainObvious]

There?s the Stinnett we all know and love. Hit batter with 2 strikes

[Leroy Jenkins]

PFS has always had good tilt to his slider. It's a nice pitch he just can't put it all together for whatever reason.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

So Foxhall decides to come out and talk to the pitcher after sitting on his @ss Saturday and Sunday?

[EdwardDrayton]

Forgive me Parker. I was understatedly skeptical. Fine job young man.

[Leroy Jenkins]

So Foxhall decides to come out and talk to the pitcher after sitting on his @ss Saturday and Sunday?

All I feel is disgust every time I see his face.

[CaptainObvious]

And Hines does what he does. If he ain?t hitting homers, he is striking out.

[Cooterpoot]

I'm amazed at our complete inability to adjust at the plate.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

I still say we dont have 6-8 SEC Caliber players on this roster.

[EdwardDrayton]

How 'bout it. A well-timed pitching change.

[Leroy Jenkins]

I still say we dont have 6-8 SEC Caliber players on this roster.

Well, the entire outfield is SEC caliber, as well as the right side of the infield. Catcher is also but he's young. That's 6 without even looking at the pitchers.

[Pancho]

math is hard sometimes. looks like foxhall is letting it slip away

[662dawg]

I have never seen Lemonis this mad hahahaha. I'd love to know what he said to Hardin on the mound lol

[EdwardDrayton]

KCH to the rescue.

[Leroy Jenkins]

The pressure is getting to Lemonis, he chewing ass on the mound. Pretty out of character for him.

[GolfDawg]

Wow. Lemonis really chewing out Tyson Hardin on the mound after striking out the first guy, then giving up a hit and a walk.

[EdwardDrayton]

I have never seen Lemonis this mad hahahaha. I'd love to know what he said to Hardin on the mound lol

He sho was hot mad.

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Too little too late.

[Leroy Jenkins]

KC moves like that buzzard from Looney Tunes.

https://media.tenor.com/o8AwfxniSA4AAAAC/beaky-buzzard-looneytunes.gif

Good job getting out of the jam.

[State82]

Way to get nasty, KC

[BeardoMSU]

Better have Nix ready to go bot9.

[EdwardDrayton]

Way to get nasty, KC

Calarco never got close but he sure wound up that swing goin at it.

[CaptainObvious]

Alford tried to hit HR every time. He sucks like Foresythe.

[EdwardDrayton]

Nice AB Amani

[CaptainObvious]

Smallest Guv Cup Crowd in the 19 years played at Trustmark. Also coincides with the highest ticket prices for the event two really bad teams.

[Cooterpoot]

It's pretty damn packed

[Leroy Jenkins]

Nixon

[BeardoMSU]

Nixon

Good.

[CaptainObvious]

Six straight breaking balls by Nixon after the fastball missed. Got the swing and miss.

[Quaoarsking]

And that's why it's ridiculous, stupid, and cowardly that MLB banned the shift.

If you're so predictable in where you spray the ball, you don't deserve hits.

[EdwardDrayton]

And we still OWN THEIR A$$!!! HAILSTATE!!!

[CaptainObvious]

Sure wish we could have played Southern last Tuesday for the batting practice.

[EdwardDrayton]

Why, yes, we'll have the W and the trophy, guvnuh!!!

[CaptainObvious]

Will have plenty of BP on Thursday. Well?. Plenty of Swing and Miss practice against the Vols Ace.

[EdwardDrayton]

Who woulda thunk Parker Stinnett played such a key role.

[BeardoMSU]

Who woulda thunk Parker Stinnett played such a key role.

Sure did.

[Mjoelner34]

3375

[State82]

I don't care how dismal the big picture is, it is sweet to beat those chumps in every way possible.

[Mjoelner34]

Best I've ever seen him pitch.

[Commercecomet24]

Maybe we should just pitch like this from here on out. 2/2/2/2/1 or some combination thereof lol

[Mjoelner34]

Maybe we should just pitch like this from here on out. 2/2/2/2/1 or some combination thereof lol

Didn't we do that the year we won the SEC? Was that the year every game was a bullpen game plus Jake?

[EdwardDrayton]

I don't care how dismal the big picture is, it is sweet to beat those chumps in every way possible.

Every ...... single ........ time

[Commercecomet24]

Who woulda thunk Parker Stinnett played such a key role.

If he would just throw nothing but breaking balls and the occasional fastball as just a show me pitch I think he would be effective

[Quaoarsking]

RPI now back to 35. We are down but we're not out yet.

[EdwardDrayton]

On to Knoxville. Hope the Orange Pickers used it all up against the Commodes this past weekend.

[Todd4State]

Maybe we should just pitch like this from here on out. 2/2/2/2/1 or some combination thereof lol

If it works why not?

[DownwardDawg]

I'm afraid they may have turned it around. Opposite of last year.

[Todd4State]

You might be thinking about 2013 when we went to the finals in Omaha.

Our rotation was Graveman, Fitts, and Pollerna. And then Girodo and Ross saved us after that. If Brandon Woodruff had been healthy we win the National Championship.

Yeah Cohen did a great job managing that staff. We basically went backwards. Starting our closers for a couple innings then switching pitchers.

[Commercecomet24]

If it works why not?

Right sometimes you have to think outside the box.

[Cowbell]

Maybe we should just pitch like this from here on out. 2/2/2/2/1 or some combination thereof lol

Alabama did this against us and was effective one game.

[BuckyIsAB****]

Im gonna give the staff credit where it?s due, we do not lose to that bunch. Counts for something. Great win

[Todd4State]

Right sometimes you have to think outside the box.

I'm especially for it until Gartman and Dohm come back.

[Commercecomet24]

I'm especially for it until Gartman and Dohm come back.

It sure can't hurt and it can work

[Tater]

Maybe we should just pitch like this from here on out. 2/2/2/2/1 or some combination thereof lol

I floated 3/3/3 on the weekends and we actually beat alabama game 1 doing that. It feels like a potential strategy. Try something cause this shit ain't working.

[Todd4State]

If Siary, Stinnett, and Tapper pitch like they did tonight why not?

But we have to stop using Ynetema and Hardin so much too.

[Leroy Jenkins]

we have to stop using Ynetema and Hardin. Period.

FIFY

[Leeshouldveflanked]

If we had pitched Siary instead of Yntema this past weekend we would have won Sunday

[Cooterpoot]

Think about this:

1. We thought Hardin and Davis were our better relievers to start the season. How stupid is Foxhall?
2. We gave Sunday (and a series) away to save Siary for a meaningless midweek game.
Foxhall and Lemonis take all damn season to see what the average fan sees. After that ass chewing of Hardin last night, hopefully he never sees the field again.

We could have easily pitched Siary for one inning and used him in the Governor's Cup. He only pitched two innings last night.

KC Hunt and Aaron Nixon pitched Sunday as well if I remember correctly and both pitched last night.

But to your point- Foxhall gives too many guys that aren't performing too many opportunities and it kills us.

Even worse our pitching situation is really thin again just like last year.

Decision making for our baseball program is a complete mystery. Nice win last night and it was good to see our pitchers did well.

What a joke not having announcers broadcasting the game last night.

[662dawg]

If we had pitched Siary instead of Yntema this past weekend we would have won Sunday

Siary or Tapper either one. Hell I'd use Tyler Davis before I used Ynetma. Tyler has at least been successful at the D1 level in the past.

I think that's Foxhall's biggest weakness. It feels like he tries to script everything and if one thing doesn't go right he either leaves the guy in way too long and/or brings in some upperclassman because he doesn't trust the freshmen.

Better bring the sticks this weekend cause Tn is on fire right now. I think we will have to score double digits to have a chance of winning. I think I dislike Tn as much as Ole Dixie, but in reality, I dislike everyone in the Sec!

[State82]

but in reality, I dislike everyone in the Sec!

Now see? This has always been my stance. I hope they all lose.

It?s just so easy to find something to dislike about them ALL and some way more than others: Vitello and the Orange Pickers, Li?l Mikey and the LandSharts, O?Sullivan, the Commodes, the Cockheads, etc etc etc.

It?s Maroon and White ALL DAY EVERY DAY!!! To hell with the rest!
