That was so eerily similar to B7 earlier today. Exact same scenario heading T8.
13 stranded in 7 innings in this game. Currently at 28 through 16 innings today. I didn't even know it was possible to be that bad.

Hopefully bama bunts these 2 over**
Spring training don't correlateQuote:

We got lucky there.
They got lucky in the 8th inning first game. I won't apologizeQuote:

Nice bounce back. Still stranding too many, but a good win
Good Win! Way to go DAWGS!
Awesome job Sexton.
Smitty is pissed.
Need Sexton to go 9 tomorrow too
Yet that's one of the main things you've always beat your chest about...Quote:

What's our SoS though? That's the point. Citing to these national rankings sound great until you start to consider to context of the numbers. Our basketball team would've been among the best in the country statistically if they played junior high teams every game, but that's not taking into context our competition versus that of a lot of other teams we rank ahead of.Quote:

There are certainly details and parts of our hitting that need improvement. But we've got a bunch of people that seem to have turned off baseball in 1998 and just turned it back on right now. The overarching freak out, especially in regards to something we've been well above average at overall, is a pretty funny right now...
I was referring to our spring training scheduleQuote:

It's not hyperbole to say national rankings right now are not really relevant because of our SoS, and that we'll know more about our true offense in a month or so after 4-5 sec weekends.Quote:
