Alabama Game 2 Thread

FAHR THAT DUMB ASS COHEN!!111!!! He MEDDLED AND LET THEM LOAD THE BASES and score zero runs!11!111

Lucky to get out of that after Cohen being a stupid shit.

Unbelievable. Despite our coaching the last 2 innings we are somehow still tied. 2-2 to 6th. Hanging on by a thread

Yep

Engie, you may have your time to gloat yet. 2-2 going to top of the sixth.

Hey did we just get a double play and get out of the inning without Bama scoring? Sure did!

HUGE stones from Rigby. If we win this, I'll take my crow deep fried.

You completely ignore it when it's got us in place with a chance to have a national seed -- on a team many of you ****ers thought was going to miss regionals.

Agreed largely. We overreact to every minute detail. That said, this has been poorly managed as you said. Hopefully we can overcome.

What stupidity did he employ that inning? Ah -- letting Small through 2 pitches that didn't amount to shit.

Need a bomb

Got to do it this inning. Bottom of the order may be up next one.

Lead off runner aboard let's go

IMO, it was smart to walk that guy in the position anyway with first base open.

I'm sick of gloating. I don't enjoy it nearly as much as people think I do. Yet no matter how much I harp on baseball overreactions -- people can't help themselves. I couldn't imagine watching Game of Thrones with you crazies. I bet the dogs even leave the room.

Come on, Nate. Need a hit

Why manage 10% of the time like a ****ing mental moron because you think it's "unorthodox"? If he would manage like he does 90% of the time all the time we wouldn't have these arguments. It's not just making moves that don't work it's making moves just to be against the grain and they are moves that are dumb as ****. Just manage the game. We've got a lot of talent and they are coaching in practice to make them better. But these wtf moves in game aren't that hard to not do.

What could he possibly gloat about? Everyone in this thread wants us to win. It wouldn't change the fact that Cohen has managed this game like a clown.

i hear ya. But you did admit it was poorly managed. We should have left Sexton in. I think everybody can agree that was the safer route there. We gambled and it backfired.

Gavin nice single. 1&2 1 out

Kruger looked safe

I thought we were down 15-1 with the way this thread was going. Glad we're still in it.

He's unorthodox 100% of the time. You pay attention to it the 10% of the time where the decisions backfire and he looks like a moron.

We could be, ha

I know he's not perfect and better at this than me but I'd like Cohen to at least not make moves that I know while sitting my fat ass on my couch are wtf and totally dumb and won't work.

Shit. Reid k's. Up to Maple Hammer

Boy, Humphreys had a pitch to hit there, he just missed it.

Yes. That was poorly managed. But does Cohen actually make those calls? He didn't with Butch. Not until the Ross Mitchell fiasco last year. So, ultimately, I don't get why people are on his ass about pitching decisions while assuming Wes Johnson hung the moon.

For all the hand wringing -- this season has been the most traditionally our pitching staff has been handled in his 8 or 9 years here.

No one questions it if Billingsley is the same guy he was on Tuesday night.

If Robson gets on, I'd PH Rooker for Marerro.

Cerrano........

Dammit

No I pay attention to all of them. And there are many wtf moments that end up not being egregious and some work and some don't. Why go for it on 4th and 18 on your own 10 in the second quarter because 1/100 it will work? Don't be dumb and dumber bc you are saying there's a chance. That's not unorthodox that's hold my beer and watch see are the moves that are easy to not do but for some reason we do it.

That was ball 3....

And he K's as well. Bottom of our lineup will be up in the 7th. That was really our opportunity there.
