Agreed

Powell fastball coming.
Told you.

Again, we take too many good pitches and swing at too many bad ones. Another called strike 3.

Gotta hit that joe

another ball called a strike

It's time to attack the pitch down early. It's getting called on us anyway.
Holy shit this 17er as I say that

That was not a 17n strike.

This ump needs to be put out to the pasture. I would love to see the Trackman data on this game. He has been 3 shades of awful.

Guy makes Angel Hernandez look like a great ump

We need more lefties against this guy.

The ump wanted to call a strike on that second pitch.

I don't know why every Virginia hitter can recognize balls, slow down to foul off offspeed balls, speed up their hands to fend off 97mph FBs, and hit with power... and our lineup can't do any of that

Stevens is the only lefty on the bench but we went with Powell. questionable decision.

I want Hines to come back up this inning.

Any magic left for DJ?

Let's go DJ!

Someone tell Jordan to hit a single to right center.
Someone tell Mersh to take second on the first pitch.

Yep. Just have to take it easy and put it in play. Find outfield grass and I want Hines to bat against this guy.

Well let’s see what’s left.

Fast balls up coming then a slider off plate
