I just don't understand the pitching decisions in this game. It was a one run game. We were a bloop and a blast from playing for the national championship. Instead we stick with Hootie and Preston for a couple of hitters too long, and we go to Tullar and Patrick. I wish we would play to win the damn game and not throw back end guys out there and hope.

Preston Johnson ain’t a back end guy. He’s literally been the first man up (besides Sims) every time in the postseason, and Tullar is the only LH matchup guy we have when Harding isn’t available.

But ultimately, you’ve got to 17ing score…and that’s still a problem for us. In 3 years and 10 ballgames in Omaha, we’ve still only had 2 innings that we’ve really swung the bats well and put up a crooked number. Again, 2 innings in 10 games. It’s gotta be better than that. Hell, we’ve only scored at all in 3 out of 25 innings in this CWS. That’s 17ing pathetic.

Welp. I prefer Jordan up with no outs to start the 8th, but State is going to have to win this game in the 8th with Allen, James, Hancock, LoTan, and Dubrule. If those 5 don’t reach base the 9th will be a feast for their pitching.

So tired of banging the bridesmaids. Ready to get my paws on the bride. Stop making it difficult State.

If you go back and read what I said, I was clearly referring to Tullar and Patrick as back end guys. My gripe about Preston is that he was in too long, which has been a theme most of this season.

Yes, we've got to score. But we weren't going to do much against Madden. Everyone knew that going in. That's why it was so damn important to keep this score close, so we could set ourselves up to do damage to their pen late.

This game was absolutely must win. Even if we win tomorrow we are going to have a pitching mess on our hands for the finals.

With two lefties, who should we have gone to besides Tullar when we pulled Preston Johnson?
I also don’t see how we left Preston out there too long. He got the leadoff man to pop up and Rowdey lost it in the lights.

I had a better chance of winning the lottery than Parker getting outs. Please get a baseball grown man haircut until you can pitch like a boss
