He was going to bring in McQuary before Self tonight too- based off of who was up in the bullpen.
Well to be fair, I think he got McQuary up when they tied it. No need going to self then. It was too late.

McQ was already up before they tied it. Self was sitting.

Ok. I thought the tv only showed him getting up after they tied it.

I've railed Henderson as much as anyone but we lost the game in the first 4 innings when we only got 3 runs. Raby was absolute trash last night and we just slept walked on offense. I get Self not coming in was bad but our offense lost that game in the first hour.

Neff was dealing last night, he threw one bad pitch, gotta give the credit to the hitter for taking advantage.
Two exciting games and tonight should be the third.
Not sure which team feels the pressure the most tonight but I do think we may have a slight advantage on pressure cause it's been this way all year long.

My rough estimate is Henderson alone has cost us 5-10 wins this year.
I did the math on this. It's been 7 games.

If he wins it all then his decisions were not boneheaded, by definition. Listen to yourself.

You are really too emotionally invested to see that we have been winning in spite of Henderson, not because of Henderson.
Everyone wants to be a beast...until its time to do what beasts do.

We think Self would have shut them down but we don't know for sure. You are correct our offense lost this game. We would have scored another run if the ball doesn't hit the pitcher and go straight to the SS. Tanner failed to come through. Blaming Henderson for every loss but not giving him an ounce of credit for the wins is just stupid. Baseball is a weird game, line drives are caught and bloopers fall for hits, sometimes luck is huge and it is no ones fault.

Good arms, yes. Unhittable, no
Right somebody has been hitting them. Luke did ok, when Luke is our offense, then someone is not doing their job/.

Well, it can be "crazy" and true; they are not mutually exclusive qualifiers.

I'm far from a Henderson fan but last night was not on him IMO.

No one has won a SR game yet with less than 4 runs. We are the only team to lose a SR game and only give up 4 runs.

That's hilarious. I'm not emotionally invested in baseball at all. I Didn't even watch the end of the game. In fact I haven't watched a whole game in the whole tourny. It's just college baseball. If he wins it all he is the next coach. If he wins tonight he is in all probability the next coach. He may already be. If you look at it objectively without any prejudices, he has done a heck of a job. I don't care one way or another but that's my opinion. It's worth the paper I wrote it on.

We had 2 hot shots up the middle that ricocheted off the pitcher right to the shortstop.
That was 2 runs.
Henderson is not at fault.

James wasn't sharp last night. Looked nervous. He let 2 runs in one that was credited to him. Maybe we should of gone to Neff instead of James and then went to Denver. Idk it's over with now. Hopefully Vandy spent a little bit of their bullpen mojo last night. ERAs of the bullpen say Vandy can't keep this bullpen magic going much longer. 20 straight innings with only 2 runs allowed is ridiculous. Their bullpen collectively is closer to a 4 ERA not 1.

Not only that but seeing their relivers may help today.
Should be a fun game tonight. Two evenly matched teams.
