What the hell? That ball was 3-4 feet from where he even was. Where was our guy backing the play up? That shit is on Foscue 100 times out of 100. This is the worst by far we have played all year long.

We got a cool stadium tho.

That sums up the game. Nothing else to be said.

Cmon that’s a bullshit throw at that point. No reason to throw that ball to third. And even so that ain’t on Gilbert road

Horseshit. Absolutely pathetic performance from a group that has been through far far worse. What a ****ing flop

That?s not possible they only have 1 hr.

Welp are we good enough to battle out of the losers bracket with Vandy having all arms on deck. Highly doubtful

We ain’t done yet. We will win the losers bracket game against Louisville and then we’ll beat Vandy/Auburn with Ginn or Plumlee. After that?????? No idea.

Just give up. The same guy on Auburn's team had 2 hard hit balls (2 run HR and RBI single) with 2 outs that accounted for all 3 of Auburn's run until the last run we just gave them.

On my he Baseball side, Butch has gone all in with his pen. This is it with Anderson and Greenhill burned. We just gotta get the job done.

Gilbert could've blocked it.

The backup was backing up home because that's where the likely play was

Learn baseball. There is no backup on 3rd on that play. Pitcher is a base ahead behind home plate like he should be.

Hopefully you see why Gilbert should have blocked that up. He should know there's no backup

Yep... that runner doesn't go home with no throw.

**** off. In every inning that they've scored, they had no one on and two outs before getting someone on base and getting a run.

Or 3 out of 4. Whatever

It was no blocking that ball, Gilbert did all he could do by trying to pick it out of the dirt.

Exactly. Definitely on foscue.

I was certainly Foscue's fault, but Gilbert could've limited the damage

Let's swing at every first pitch... that way we can get it over

Losing to auburn in a sport they care nothing about will sting

Sad part is he had no chance to get him even with a good throw.

Dang, Ole Yeller dies? Was going to finish reading the book after the game! First this game and now this. Thanks a lot!****

Guys look at the replay. Gilbert had no shot at getting in position to block that. The throw was too far away from how he was set at the bag.

They've got a guy everywhere we hit it.

We would have had a much better chance against Louisville. 29-1 or whatever against non-SEC teams.

And so does Hatcher on the first pitch and for the weak grounder to second.

They're making plays and we aren't. Congrats auburn

Extremely disappointing and to lose to Auburn of all teams in the CWS. We've been swinging over the top all night.

Another first pitch swing on a breaking ball.

It's on the coaches at this point as well. We've been coached circles around tonight

2 and q

They are better than us. I hope Vandy beats them. I’d rather play Vandy after we beat Louisville.

They are better than us?

LOLZ. Come man.

Why doesn?t Gilbert wear that one? We need base runners.

Top of the lineup in the 9th. We're due

Gilbert has his issues but that was 100% on Foscue. Foscue probably has had his worst game of the year. DP with 2 on and nobody out and then throws the ball away to give Auburn a run.
