I'll come back and admit, Henderson's decisions ended up being good ones. It's just head scratching to pull France after he shut them down like he did, but Gordon and Neff kept them from scoring, so credit must be given for that I guess.

Washington's staff needs to be mentally evaluated for taking out their starter. The dude was rolling with a low pitch count and would've kept shutting us down I believe. Another gutsy performance by our guys. Never count them out

The ONLY questionable decision was to pull France after 1 inning and go through 3 bullpen pitchers in 2 innings. And that was only going to be an issue if we went deep into extra innings. Game ended in 9 so the point is moot. Could have been a factor if our bullpen had gotten extended though so that is why I didn't like it at the time.

[I seen it dawg]

Agreed. Henderson sucks so bad that we won a 9 inning shutout. Is he great? No but damn the hate is embarrassing especially when our offense scored once. See I don’t get the hate to say you are right. Maybe instead of bitching enjoy the ride. And yes I get some being negative hoping for a positive but there are a few that want to look for blame instead of supporting the team.
Funny thing is that the negative crew will tell you how happy they are till they can shit on a coach or player next game

And yet you come on and chest pound at the people who were being negative...with negativity. Enjoy the win like everybody else.

I’d be embarrassed to shit on the team the way some of you had! And by team I mean players and coaches. We won shut up you great baseball minds! Lord enjoy a win and quit telling how you are better than what you are seeing. It’s embarrasing. The funny thing is you may be right but I hope you look forward to that cause it proves you could give a rats ass if we win

[Really Clark?]

Ok now Washington pulling their pitcher was probably a much better decision than some of y’all are giving credit. 3 of our last 4 hitters to face him squared tha ball up and got the ball in the air. His ball was losing sink and we had 2 and 3 hitters up. Got both to ground out after the change.

Toward people who want to shit on members of a staff and players! Yep I do but my negativity is toward the few wanting us to fail to say they are right!

[Turfdawg67]

1-0 win and you give hitting coach credit lol. It's ok to give Henderson credit

Exactly! SMH

Take some Advil and go to bed

[Liverpooldawg]

GoTro has got our hitters refusing to quit.

Dude, it was a 1-0 win. We just won a pitcher's duel. If you can't give credit to the guy calling the shots for the pitching staff then you opinion on baseball is worthless and absolutely HAS to be ignored from here on.

[MarketingBully]

Gary Henderson needs one more win to tie McDonnell’s CWS win total. I find that hilarious.

[Dawg61]

FOAMBAT!!!!! I was shitting bricks and cussing like a storm when Henderson took France out for Gordon!! Lol RALLY BANANA!!

[SmokeyDawg]

I thought LA was going to have a walk off in Nashville but glad he waited until now. We can give all the credit we want to gotro but last year we would've given all the credit to Henderson for making that pitching staff work.

Don't back a bulldog into a corner!

Our freshmen didn’t have it tonight and our upper classmen picked them up. That’s just what this team does. Tonight our pitching staff pitched beautifully and did something they haven’t done in a while. Win a one run game. Hopefully with this win our guys get settled and our bats come alive.

[MarketingBully]

Four more wins from a national championship fellas. Think about it.

I agree, our freshman haven't faced this expectation and for our upperclassmen to pull through will be contagious to those guys.

Your right Clark and his coach has been watching him a long time and recognized that when his ball started to get up, it was fixing to get clobbered at 88 mph.

[Liverpooldawg]

Take some Advil and go to bed

You should do the same.

[I seen it dawg]

Team win. It's what these guys have become good at.

[confucius say]

Great job by Henderson not bunting MacNamee. That wasn't an easy decision for him I'm sure. Even though I was screaming not to bunt there.

It was a no brainer and it had nothing to do with Hindu. All JG. Said so postgame to Jim

[I seen it dawg]

You should do the same.

Oh did you decide to actually watch a game tonite?

Fine for us. Thinking about he next one works better for the team.
