Way to work the pitch count there Jake.***

[RocketDawg]

Looks like the cameramen are picking out the babes in the crowd.

[magrooder]

Westy with the single.

[ShotgunDawg]

Atta boy Westy

[magrooder]

Stolen base. Get him in Tanner!

[VandelayIndustries]

Let's go

Looks like we may have something on Owen as far as when he picks & when he throws home

[VandelayIndustries]

2 out magic, let's go

[maroonmania]

We need to get the ball on the ground or on a line. Fly balls aren't going to help us much in this park.

[RocketDawg]

Good MSU crowd there, but we need an accompanying whistler for "Let's go State".

[ShotgunDawg]

Owen is really commanding it early

[CadaverDawg]

Owen is really commanding it early

Yeah, we don't hit that inside fastball well for some reason, and he is painting that inner half. Going to have to turn on a few of those and smoke them down the lf line to make him think twice

[KOdawg1]

Well at least we hit the ball. Put pressure on their defense

[Marvin]

Umpire sucks

[RocketDawg]

4 K's in a row.

[CadaverDawg]

Ump has a pretty tight zone

[RocketDawg]

Umpire sucks

I thought he was doing pretty good, especially relative to what we usually see. Missed that called strike though.

[RocketDawg]

5 in a row.

[maroonmania]

Small always maximizes his pitch count. Hitters rarely make contact so he hardly ever gets a 2 or 3 pitch out. And then he nibbles and runs the count up to 3 balls often.

[magrooder]

5 strike outs
