First game of a doubleheader today, and our genius of a coach puts in our setup pitcher for the 7th inning of a 6 run ballgame when they have 8-9-1 of the lineup due to hit Just baffling
Thought the same thing. There’s no 3 batter rule in CBB right? Put a Middle reliever in and if he gives up a base runner or 2. Then go to the big arms. But Dimare loves burning his bullpen arms out.
That game had a postseason feel. At least for us. Complete with the butthole puckering and runners left on base.
I’m sitting by the god damn Vandy Whistler. Can’t get drunk so thankfully prolly not going to jail. Might pay my daughter to throw her Kona ice on him
He has a stuffed raccoon he is holding up while he whistles. I hate the motherfucker and hope he dies but I have to admit it made me laugh
Currently drinking at a bar wondering if the game is going to happen or not. Will head to the stadium if it is
We had a tough break today. Tied 1-1 with the bases loaded and 1 out and a 2-2 count on the hitter, a lightning strike was detected and the game delayed. Delay lasted so long that we couldn’t resume in time, and the game was canceled. No guarantee we would’ve won, but when you’re fighting to try to host and possibly be a top 8 seed, losing a chance to win an SEC game and sweep a series feels like a big loss. And winning that game probably would’ve taken some stress off the last weekend in Lexington.
I think it’s pretty clear Taylor can’t pitch twice in one weekend effectively. Bats are waking up with the exception of today. Bullpen overall still very strong and had a good day from Jax today. If we don’t end up hosting the super I don’t think anybody will be excited to see us. Still feel good about this team overall
The other thing having this game canceled today does is effectively eliminate our chances of catching aTm and/or Ark and winning the West. We have to sweep UK and both have to lose their series. I guess it’s conceivable to happen, but I don’t expect Arkansas to lose two games at Bama. aTm could drop the series to Ole Miss since they’re hot right now. Would’ve been more interesting if we were a game back going to Lexington. That half game is a bitch.
Bats are waking up? We had 5 hits in game 2 and had like 11 walks issued. We just hit a few homers. Can’t count on that shit and win consistently, especially in Omaha.
