1-2-3 top of first for Walker.
1-2-3 bottom of first for the District Dawgs.
Alford at second is interesting
Just tuning in. How did Grambling score
MSU should have signed my son, he had a .490 career average playing against 75 mph fastballers in High School.
Bloop single, single in the corner, wild pitch scored their run
A couple of hits and a wild pitch with a runner on third.Quote:

We just have too many pitchers that struggle just to throw strikes.
Heck of a play by Lane to end the inning. Walker is struggling big time. Big misses. Can't locate glove side
Better get someone warm. 2 runs may win this thing the way we swing it.
Just looks like we do not want to be there today. Should be chomping at the bit for a stat padding game.
The ball just comes off Forsythe's bat so weak.
Our hitters just plain suck. We should be teeing off this guy and all we are getting are routine fly balls or pop ups. We will get our shit pushed in this weekend by Tulane if we bring these bats with us
Can?t even get hit by a pitch properly. Holy shit this team looks lost in the wilderness right now.
Ok, I have never seen a HBP get overturned into a K. That explanation didn’t explain anything. I get not leaning into a pitch but how did that become a strike?
Shit rule. Makes zero sense unless hitter leans over strike zone.Quote:

Exactly, unless you put yourself in the zone I think it is baseball.Quote:

We need to send the bats we have to Ukraine as donations. Maybe the Ukrainians can use them to hit Russians with them
Jake G. just never seems to have our hitters ready to hit early in the year. Being no hit thru 3 by a Grambling pitcher throwing in the 70s is ridiculous.
We have a sponsor deal with Louisville Slugger. Prior to this year, players could use what they wanted.Quote:

Hitting coaches.... They help with mechanics and all but.... if you aren't clobbering a 75 mph fastball... it's between the ears.
This frustratingly up and down nature of our bats so far is going to drive me to drink.
We have already had to endure one sport this season of maddening up and down performance.
"You are competing against the game." Cohens favorite phrase early this season.
It's getting comical the excuses though coming out of the booth. State just isn't hitting the ball well. What's so crazy is, it's the whole team (it seems).
Face it boys, we suck. I'm going to be that guy.
Hmmm. I see OM is using Easton bats, not having troubles hitting the ball in the cold weather.Quote:

I?m old enough to remember when Northern Kentucky was one of our worst losses ever!
That title may be short lived!
If all teams do not make sec tournament we may just need to lower expectations just to make that one.
This ump has a wide strike zone too. State needs to be more aggressive at the plate.
Like I said last wk, it’s amazing how many pitchers we let look like a mlb hall of famer. I wish I knew how many times we have went 0-3 hits through like 8 innings.
And now we are being out hit by Grambling and Stenett is getting tore up…
Guess we just want to concede this game by going to Stinnett?
Attaway Parker. Good to see him get a solid inning under his belt. That will help that 15+ ERA.
Horrible AB by a veteran James
Need to be trying to go the other way against a guy like this. Will help you keep your shoulder and hips from opening too early.
