Gotta get more than 1 out of that.
At least Kentucky did pretty much the same thing. Both squandered at least 1 runQuote:

Why it was so dumb to pitch self in the 9th last night in a blow outQuote:

Good Lord Gridley... he should've got that ball
It's over. Mangum is getting ripped yet we leave him in and UK up 4-1
Think we regret using self up 6 in the 9th last night? It was dumb and its hurting us nowQuote:

Self's not hurting us. What's hurting us is leaving Mangum in. He clearly doesn't have it today. Not a SEC starter. Self has nothing to do with it...he can pitch today. He should probably be our Sunday guy...so if that's what your saying I agreeQuote:

I didn't like it. Their guy had really high pitch count after 1 and we put him right back on scheduleQuote:

Stovall is one hell of a defender at 2b
Update?
4-1 bad guys b3Quote:

Lovelady batting 5th....L F'n O L
Alexander is just awful right now. Good grief. Just give him the take sign and hope for a walk
