We won Game 1 vs OU.
Now their 5-plus ERA's SP's have to stop us from winning another game. How can they let Bucket do that? How can a 20-2 team let Bucket beat them like that?

This seems like a thread that will be bumped 200 times. Wish you had waited till we won 2
Their final pitcher had an era of 7.71 and we couldn't score on him so there's that..........
There is still a path for this team to finish 27-3 in sec play
Frei DH, Stallman at 1st, Downs in LF, sit HH ass on the bench. Also, What about Cupp leading off? He leads the team in walks, is hitting almost .300, and has the 2nd best OBP behind Sully. The way he works the count could be a decent leadoff...
I would go,
Reeves 2b
Reece 3B
Sully 1B
Downs LF
Frei DH
Chance CF
Stevens RF
Highfill C
Cupp SS
I'm not sure Ross will be in the lineup anytime soon. Haven't gotten an official update yet but damn it looked bad. Some guys never recover from that.
Did the pitcher intentionally throw it into him?
I know it is typical to jamb a batter trying to bunt but his pitch was a little too much.
So, no retaliation today?
It was time for that weeks ago.
good win. hope there is some good mojo
Wasn't intentional at all. Highfill had a SO and a dribbler back to the pitcher prior to that AB. I think that when the pitcher came out of his wind up and Highfill turned to bunt it threw off his timing and he just lost control. Struck Highfill on the left side of nasal bone. It will bleed a lot and it hurts like hell so he might be out the weekend, but hopefully not too long
Good win against a good team on the road. I am hoping we win game two, didn't watch but looking at the stat lines must have been really great pitching, we had 7 hits and them 4.
Gotta hit and score more runs.
Off the subject, hope Lady Dawgs win today, I wonder if Cohen is waiting on us to lose today to make his announcement for their next HC. But he seems to be slow pulling the trigger all his hires. LOL
Can someone explain to me how Hines is still in the lineup? Is it a defensive thing? He is so bad out there at the plate and getting worse
I'm actually recalling my disgusted post about Hines last night after reviewing the facts. Their starter struck out everybody, not just Hines. The ump called the low at the knees strike all night and our guys refused to adjust and try to hit the ball on the ground. Everyone of our guys had their "taught to do it" upper cut swing on all fastballs and missed them by 3 inches. We rarely fouled off any pitches when striking out. Hines got a base hit on a flare to Left where he actually hit an outside strike the other way. On the double play ball, he smashed that ball in the ground. Unfortunately it was right at the second baseman. In that at bat., my frustration was more that he didn't take a pitch or 2 with a runner at 3rd and one out. But he WAS trying to get that run in and unfortunately hit it so hard, it was an easy double play. He needs to bat 7th and play first.
We have scored 5 runs in 3 innings. My post said their other SP’s suck. That’s aged very well
We’ve scored 9 now
There's 11
Weak arm
It?s okay! Florida and A&M suck too so we should feel good about ourselves
It's OK, I'm sure we will sweep LSU next week and get right back in the race.***
