You don't take that chance down 2 this late in the game. They did the same thing down 2 last night and Cody gunned the guy down at 2nd.

Debatable? He is by far and away their best reliever on a shitty shitty bullpen they have.

To me the biggest reason we lost this one is bc Plumlee grooved a fastball to Ingram with the bases juiced. Surely Henderson didn't go out there and tell him to throw a fastball down Main Street.

The second part of your statement, not that part. You saying we "all but guarantee a win if we get on their starter in game 2". Yes Very debatable considering our starter

Kinda hard to pin it all on plumlee when he entered game with bases loaded

Four hit batters in one game is pitiful.

I disagree. Ball bounced away, I saw no problem with it. It wasn't just a ball in the dirt...catcher made a good play

If I'm playing us, I tell my team to take 2 strikes before even swinging. We'd probably have a losing record if every team we played followed this strategy

Not blaming it all on him...just saying that blow put us way behind the 8 ball. The walks are the blame for the loss. All pitchers walked guys and hit guys

They aren't starting Mize and if they do they will have a very short short leash with him. Billingsly had a great game against South Carolina. Auburn is either on or off there is no in between. I think the third game favors us especially if we keep battling like this.

This game is on Gordon and the inability for our coaches to realize that when Gordon loses his breaking pitch he isn't getting anyone out.

Did any of these guys pitch in high school?

All speculation. So I guess we'll see. I don't think any SEC game we start Billingsley or Gordon "favors" us.

Another HBP. Un****ingbeluevable

OT TIRED OF HEARING COHEN TELLING US EVERYTHING stop the interviews and get on with the game.

5 hit batters, and now two pitches that go behind the damn batter. Thank god Lovelady caught that one.
