Omaha Game Thread - MSU v Texas game 3

Backs against the wall already. Do we have any more rabbits we can pull out of the hat?

This guy is a poor man's JT Ginn. Fastball has some sink.

Looking like this will be a repeat of 2018. Win the first 2 and then let the same team beat us twice with the Finals at our fingertips.

Thing is we knew this year our offense was a question mark at the bottom of the order.

We were always going to go as far as our pitching and the top of our lineup could take us. Last night we didn?t swing great and gave up 11 walks.

Hopefully we can turn this around so we aren?t second guessing last night for the next 12 months

Yes. Cause soft ground ball up the middle ended the inning with a sniff of the panties.

Our approach at the plate is atrocious. I?ve seen 10u travel teams that have a better attack

Need a 1-2-3 inning here.

C'mon guys

Good God that pop fly nearly went to the track

The ball is carrying.

They're putting good swings on the ball so far.

We're not.

Have we even tried to lay down a bunt to move the lead off man over. I honestly cannot recall us bunting at all in the post season. But TX and UVA have worked our ass doing it. It?s good baseball. Don?t understand why we never do it

That's what we kept saying last night and the game before that. Kept saying that in the 4th, the 5th, the 6th, etc. We cannot continue to wait until the late innings to score some runs

Good. 2 pitch out. We need some more of those

Ball is carrying to right, but we haven't squared one up in like 30 at bats.

I hope so. Should have a significant advantage in the back half of the game with Sims but we have to get there still in the game with an offense that can score.

If we lose with Bednar facing their #2 or 3, we flat didn't deserve it.

Okay cmon guys
