Don't rag on him too much guys.. he gave all he had...

He also had great break to his curve ball and was touching 92-93 with his fastball against Florida. Tonight he topped out at 86 which is going to get you hit everytime.

Agree. And honestly most of our pitchers have had games like that and then sucked the next game or two. And then come back and have a good game. Look at Billingsley. His ERA was 5 something coming into today. He pitched like a SEC weekend guy today. You just never know what these guys are going to give you outside of maybe Self.

And people forget he volunteered to pitch because of the massive amount of injuries we've had and he gave us a few good performances.

USM catching all the breaks now. I don't like the way this is looking. If we have an Ace up our sleeve like Pilk, Self, Price, etc....use it now

So why was he put out there to serve up 4 runs? Just asking.

Same question I was thinking. We dont have many options but Gordon got lit up by USA

another long fly out to the warning track it's an out.. but sure don't like that any more

Who knows. Looked good in bullpen? felt the best of all the pitchers we had left we trusted.

I think I would go to Barlow next. We use him as a matchup guy, but he has better stuff than Barton. If he can locate, he can get these guys out.

NICE JOB. runner caught stealing on a pitch out. 2 outs

Nice call on the pitchout.

But then we complete the walk...

LSU will beat the dog shit out of this USM team. If we had 1 more pitcher we'd be prepping for Baton Rouge. USM is a paper tiger

Very proud of these dogs. They just grind. Cole Gordon is a guy who is all heart and just loves playing baseball. He gave us everything he had, it just wasn't enough. If we have 1 more average pitcher, we may have walked thru this regional.

Im fine with starting him, but he should have been pulled almost immediately. Not at 4-1.

Nice strikeout!! Just need to keep them scoreless for 7 more innings

Jolly K's him
4-1 after 2 innings.

**** it, let's get Jolly a lead! He ain't scared

Attaboy jolly good inning. This inning crank up the bats. We got hot guys coming up. Let's get one here.

Good job Jolly. Thats the plan from here out, just put up zeros and lets chip away. We should be in their pen by the fifth if we work a count

Hahahahaha

Need a run here with 2-4 up

Are we forbidden to use Price and Self until the 8th or 9th inning?

It's easy to look good when your conference is Texas San Antonio, Old Dominion, UAB, and etc.

Atta boy jolly. Now just score some dang runs now.

I'm sure we'll extend them if we have to.

Get on base Rook. No Ks please

I'll take that single for Rook

Ohhh shit...

I wanna know why Self has only thrown 25 pitches this entire regional. Y'all argued when to use Pilk for 4 straight days but we have used our 2nd best pitcher for only 25 pitches the entire weekend and nobody has said a damn word about it. I don't think Self has been used correctly this regional, there I said it.

They gave that an error. Nevermind.

Lol. Take advantage of this Bulldogs.

rooker with what should be a popout but couldnt be caught... base hit ...welll error...WE NEED THOSE BREAKS!!!

Big question is....Who will USM fans cheer for when they play LSU?

Give us a walk

They should give Rook a hit on that ball, to help my man's batting average... that was a towering ball

It's cute how they stomp on their aluminum grandstands to make noise.

Grid has been hot all weekend while Rooker has been slumping...now Rooker finally gets on and Gridley can't deliver. Whadda you do?
