Kind of depressing to see your opponent load the bases every inning.

Somebody wake Gary up from his afternoon nap. Shit.

He’s scared, and we are still going to leave him in

And Gary is going to be the coach. With Butch signing an extension and the rest saying no, he's going to be the guy.

You have to throw strikes to have a chance with this pitcher, and he is not throwing any...

I wanted JB to start. I can't believe he's still in right now though.

Yep. They are bashing him. Unfortunately all into the holes. But still, I have yet to see a pitch/swing that missed.

Yeah.....he has a scared look on his face. Bet you can't force a hypodermic needle up his ass right now.

It's likely too late now.

So lets give away 3 runs, load the bases, kill momentum......then go get Billingsley

This is the reason that Henderson does not have fans among real MSU baseball fans.

Hopefully James can keep it at 5 runs.

I think you guys are gonna be sorely disappointed when France does get a shot. He throws 90% 89-91 mph fastballs and these guys will hit that. Got to have effective offspeed to beat em

I would've started France.

Now I remember why I don't want Henderson for Head Coach. This was and is a pitiful example of how to not handle a pitcher in a big game. Do we come out playing for tomorrow?

Gary pulling a Dan Mullen and not coaching to win.

You play to win the game

If only Henderson was a normal coach and positioned his fielders dead in the middle of the 3 hole and 5 hole***

The biggest problem with JB is we don’t have great positioning with him so ground balls and fly balls that should be routine squirt through the infield or go for doubles. Our defensive positioning is horrid.

Maybe but France would've had a better shot because his fast ball has late acceleration on it that can create swing & miss.
