There's the Tatum we're used to
Why am I still watching this? Tatum is in, we are dropping fly balls, playing a lucky assed team....why?
We mess up our pitchers' rhythm more than any coaching staff in the country....with throws over, visits, pitching changes, etc.
This is little league quality shit right here.
And we are back to over coaching/meddling.Quote:

Pitching change at 0-2?! Wtf?
Yep. I can't stand this overthinking, over coaching, meddling bullshit.Quote:

Hahahahahahaha. He takes Tatum out on an 0-2 count and brings in Brown. Even the announcers were at a loss for words on that pitching change.
Need a K and advantage pitcher by making that move. Not saying I'd do it but it ain't as absurd strategically as some seem to think.
But it makes an already unconfident Tatum think that they don't have confidence in him to put a guy away. I don't like it regardless of outcome for that reasonQuote:

Then why even use him?Quote:

Papierski is like 0-10 in the SEC Tourney. We have to get him out here.
Y'all were saying?
Dang it. Welp, that may do it. Oh well.
welp.

This x1000
Man I hate all these LSU players
What a shitty ass pitch
The Meddler is soooooooooo smart. Fuuuuuuuuuuuck DBrown! A two out two strike hit!
I was saying there was a good chance of a swinging miss in the previous AB. And we got it.Quote:

Great pitch, Brown. Good grief. We throw more meatballs ahead in the count than any team in the country
Shit. That was his first hit of the tourney and he is a .200 hitter. It's just not our game tonight.
Wild pitch and a two strike 2 run single on a gutter by DB. That's bad!
saw a stat we adjusted the top of the order for the first time all month. top 7 guys are 2-19 tonight. Prolly just coincidence
