And Mangum is picked off.....He's aggressive in every phase of the game.....Sometimes it pays off and sometimes, well...??.
Yeah, he got a hit but his error allowed a run. Westburg still struggling. But a lot of baseball to go.Quote:

I just wish I had a buck for every time Mangum has made a wasted out on the bases over his career.Quote:

Been a few. I'd rather have a buck for every time he's been on base.Quote:

He’ll still make it to the 5th 6th inning. Having his pitch count low didn’t help him last week. He’s just going to pitch into the sixth no matter what.Quote:

Man on 3rd with one out. Gotta figure out a way to get him in.
And he did. Atta boy RowdeyQuote:

Woot! Wtg Halter!!!
Way too many Barney Fife umpires in this league
Not to get sidetracked on this discussion, but Mangum's aggressive baserunning usually works well against teams that aren't that good, where the runs aren't as important. But when he gets sloppy against good teams he hurts us because him being on the bases is more important and every wasted out is more important because runs are at a premium. Heck, he got picked off last weekend in the first game against Arkansas that killed that first inning rally. Game might have gone totally different if he hadn't.Quote:

Keep it going guys! Come on Tanner.
But what about the runs that are produced by being aggressive. Can’t remember the bad without thinking about the positives
Boy, had a chance to really put them away there if Mac could have come through. Good inning though.
That was ball four Mac...
Thru two innings:
Small 43 pitches
uGA starter 49 pitches
Excellent inning but we needed to knock that pitcher out.Quote:

But he needs classes on looking like a crazy man when he argues. Saying polite things while looking homicidal is a gift that JC had
We seem to know little about working a pitcher that's on the ropes. No need for Mac to swing there until he had 2 strikes.Quote:

Yeah, I agree with you but still we worked enough of him to coax a 4-1 lead. That’s why I like playing Gilbert. He does a great job of working counts when he bats.Quote:

Hey Gilbert Lasered it. I’ll take it.
Dang, Gilbert tattoos the ball right at the SS for a line out double play. Foscue gets off too far and we give away another out on the bases.
