LSU Game 1 Thread

There's a play where having Britton over Detz is better- Britton gets the lead runner there

That's on your guy at 3rd

Good strikeout for Bracewell

Think if Detz screws that play up? Then you would have had 2 on with no outs.

Yeah, Detz did not make such a dumb play after all. The shit you guys give him is uncalled for sometimes.

I agree. I think he made the right play. However it goes back to little league, look the guy back and then make the throw, don't just come up and make a leisure throw to first

How about just looking the runner back like an average fielder would do?

Hey I want him as the permanent DH.

Huge Britton fan here I think he's about to break out at the dish

Off topic a bit but how great would it be to have a guy like Wes at first as another infielder. Heck just threw one a bit high for any other first baseman but he just stretched that arm up. He is easily our best defender and a lot of it is because of size alone

His size helps us more times than not

Wes flies out. 1 down

Big 'un

Curve strike (who saw that coming*) 0-1
FB away 1-1
HUGE swing on a changeup 1-2
Big cut with 2 strikes.. foul (good approach***) 1-2
Still around it with 2 strikes… 1-2
Curve in the dirt.. Fully expecting a backwards K here on a fastball
Curve flyout to 2B

Not just size. He has great mechanics throwing. But the size definitely helps

Pirtle

Ball away 1-0
Ball.. 2-0 gotta get on base here
3-0

BB

Pirtle walked

Good at bat for Pirtle. Four ball walks

a announcer just said 23 State alumni or players are either playing pro or working for a pro team. That's a lot.

Bottom line he got the out which we needed and the runner moving over didn't hurt us. Need to get a run back here

Good play by Ibarra
