They were not crushing him they just put the ball in play and got lucky

True, but his breaking ball is getting tagged pretty hard. He better stay more with his fastball.

Trips me out that Georgia's coach is named Scott Stricklin.

Sundays are late-arriving church crowds. And what Shotgun doesn't understand is that for several of those empty seats, the owners are there, just walking around the concourse and/or visiting with folks in the outfield lounges. I'm not there today because of an after-church obligation, but I'm usually there, but walking around chatting with fellow fans.

So the same people walk around & don't sit in their seats every game?

Lots of people have seats and spots in the lounge both.

I just don't think this is at all the overall issue.

Sure, I bet there are some, but I think this is just a made up excuse

I love how Cumbest can go the other way & stay through the ball.

He doesn't have a pretty swing but he's got a chance to hit

Cumbest is killing it tonight!

That was some good situational hitting there. Good hit Cumbest.

The Maroon and White BO JACKSON! Ties the game with Triple Baby

4-4

Cumbest ties it with the triple!

If Cumbest can smooth out his stroke & learn to lift the ball, he could be a top 5 round draft pick on the baseball field.

They let Skelton steal 2nd then Cumbest ropes one

I'm surprised he wasn't taken somewhere in last year's draft. He has so much untapped potential.

Irritating that it took all that to get back even with Auburn's dinking and dunking for 4 runs.

ROWDEY ****ING JORDAN

Rowdey with a double for the lead!

Very good to see Rowdey maybe coming out of his slump

Isn't that a bit of a problem? You're basically guaranteeing you won't have as many people there.

Good luck to anyone playing us with the way this lineup is hitting. Rowdey hitting plus getting consistent DH hitting while Skelton continues to hit well.

We roll 1-9 in this lineup folks
