I don't understand hit and runs on 2-0 counts. Why not 3-0 count? At least if the pitch misses, it's a walk. Had Mangum swing at a shitty high ball.

And meddling screws that up.
Meddling screwed what up?
Inning started out with promise. Two at bats with Freshmen and Cohen meddling later, Alabama gets out of it. 0-0 bottom of the third.
Yeah I see the reasoning in 7 inning game but the way we are swinging the bats lately it always seems to kill any momentum we have. Wanted Luke to take some cuts.
He got the count to 2-2. Mangum probably walks otherwise.Quote:

That inning is ALL on Belmont.. U have to get the bunt down..
No excuse that 3-1 pitch was not laid down..
Come on, blue
Bc if it's a hit and run it won't go to 3-0. He's SWINGINGQuote:

No. Mangum has an RBI if Alexander gets the bunt down and the 2B is back at normal depth in the 4 hole instead of being in double play mode.Quote:

It was ball three that Mangum swung at. 3-0 count is better to do a hit and run IMO bc if the pitch is a ball you don't have the batter swinging at a shitty pitch.Quote:

I don't like the two 7 inning games against Bama, bc they have great starting pitching. Sets up well for them. I don't think this guy has given up a run in his last two starts vs A&M & OM
My point is on 3-0 you either can hit it or let the ball go by. There isn't a huge risk there. Either the guy throws a strike and Mangum gets a good pitch to hit for the hit and run or if it's a ball he just lets it go by and two are on. Not a very hard concept to grasp.Quote:

Hell yeah!!!! Hump with a 2-run triple! But wait, isn't this pitcher a righty?
Just a figure of speech. Calls for a bunt and can't get it down. Doesn't call for a bunt and can't put a ball in play...Quote:

We need this run. I think 3 runs will be hard for Alabama to score if Sexton keeps pitching well.
Dammit Elih! Anything but that
Double play. Dawgs up 2-0 headed to b4
