    Cal State Fullerton it is

    We will need Sexton to be sharp and to play good D. Hope we can score some runs, but I'm expecting a low scoring game.

    Thoughts?

    We really need Sexton to play well. Considering how he got rocked in the tournament, and Dakota playing so poorly yesterday, we need to get that killer instinct back. I want to see the Sexton that was starring down OM players after he K'd them. We need that dude to show up today.

    Worried... I think they have the better pitching staff. I'm worried about our infield defense in a game where runs will be hard to come by. Hopefully sexton is on top of his game

    From what I saw last night, they don't throw hard and play their infield deep. We'll need to be patient at the plate. They don't appear to hit well. I noticed their DH was batting .377 then I saw he only had 20 hits so not sure you can take much from that. Caveat-I really don't know much about baseball.

    I have the same concern. Their pitching staff is very deep. They pitched their

    Saturday guy last night after the rain delay so not sure which starter goes tonight.

    We are by far the better team! Stop the madness, this is the fun time of the year.

    I've been wondering if a lot of teams haven't figured Hudson out. Even the commentators last night were talking that when he would miss outside the zone to lefties he would use his cutter that would break to their back foot. If the pitch was outside most the time they would lay off waiting for the cutter and turn on it. Hudson couldn't control the outside half of the plate then relied on his cutter too much and they were waiting on it.

    We rocked the pitcher with the most strike-outs in the nation yesterday (I know he threw a lot of pitches this week, hi humidity & temp, thank you Cohen) but hitting is contagious. We're playing at the Dude we're comfortable, I like our chances!

    msstate7, the day you aren't worried before a game, is when I will be very worried.

    Regardless of Cal Fullerton's "loaded pitching staff", we've seen better staffs. We've had timely hitting all year, no reason to think it will stop imo.

    Also, yesterday Gridley, Holland and Stovall made some outstanding defensive plays. Our defense is ok, we seem to be better defensively at home plus if there are to better outfielders than Jake and Robson in this region please inform me.

    I watched our dugout yesterday and it was full of life, these guys are motivated plus I've said this all year, this team has the "It", they are special and proof is winning the outright SEC.

    Hey I expect a good close game, I just like this team, we are loaded up and down the lineup with power and guys who can run.

    Hailstate!

    I sure hope our team doesn't have the same attitude as this board.

    Already getting some pop up showers here in Vegas. Humidity bordering on oppressive. Saving grace is that it's still in the low 80's.

    That humidity will help us against CSF if it sticks around.
