That's 100% on Plumlee. I mean really really stupid of him. Insanely dumb. Didn't look at the ump or anything. All in one motion took it and tossed it over.

Question I have now is why the runner on 2nd got 2 bases. I don't know the college rule for that so I'm not sure. But the initial play is 100% on Plumlee. I mean it was really dumb.

Stupid rule for sure. Again it’s akin to a guy being fouled on a layup being given four free throws or maybe more accurately being given 4 points.

It looked to me like he looked at the umpire and said something.

I think the the reason is it’s 2 bases is because someone from our bench touched the ball. Would be the same as if the baseball went in the dugout. You get 1 base plus another. Since runner was already on second it’s 3rd plus home

The way he threw it off I’m guessing not a pleasant something

You are correct, Allen tossed the ball too Plumlee and plumlee caught it and then proceeded to toss it into the dugout. The umpire awarded the two bases and then handed Plumlee a new ball

On a bright note Plumlee was ticked about something while pitching his off. Bought lesson I guess. This team is really good. I said something a couple weeks ago about hitting a cold spell and I think we are in it. All teams do, the great ones don’t let them last. They good thing we have been able to win a few while not playing well. Hope we get to a 17-13 , 18-12 record nd then catch fire. Baseball is such a streaky game. Don’t overhype the good or freak during a tough spell. We are talented but so are many others. But I love the confidence we have and that makes a difference in crunch time.
I for one never felt we would be sitting where we are right now, what about the rest of y’all?

On the plus side. plumlee pitched his ass off. So did our Bull Pen. Our offense this time couldn't say we hit a lot of balls hard, we did not. Bunch of fly balls.
