Game 15 - Virginia at UNC

[TarHeelColby10]

Every season they cannot hit.

For one, it’s the first inning. For two, we had a robbed HR. This isn’t a basketball game thread.

 

[GraceNugent]

Two outs, men on first and second for Gracia

 

[RogerThatHeel]

Ugh, Jason is struggling. Way too many pitches. At this rate he isn't going to make it four innings, if that.

 

[sweetcaroline1874]

Geez, Jason needs to get out of this somehow.

 

[Heelexplorer84]

I wish the college game had the same non shift rule as the MLB. I just hate a batter with two strikes, tapping a ball through the opposite side of the infield for a hit.

 

[GraceNugent]

Jason just airmailed Macon, command is not looking sharp

 

[footballlover10]

Mound visit might be needed

 

[premn]

grip the ball!!!!

 

[TarHeelColby10]

We’re going to have to eat this game with the bullpen more than likely. Need to hit.

 

[premn]

lucky to get out of that

 

[RogerThatHeel]

We’re going to have to eat this game with the bullpen more than likely. Need to hit.

I'm getting that feeling too. It's not ideal.

 

[tylerhol]

Go ahead and get the bullpen working, next baserunner Decaro gives up he needs to be pulled. Just doesn't have the command today. Cannot afford a crooked number

 

[HONKYTONKTARASSOCIATION]

feels like Caleb Wilson just crossed the plate and scored for Virginia

 

[GraceNugent]

Well it is the Tar Heel achilles heel pitching wise, a soft tossing lefty

 

[premn]

Righties making decent contact at least

 

[GraceNugent]

three up, three down for UNC

 

[GraceNugent]

bullpen is running out

 

[sweetcaroline1874]

Our offense needs to wake up.

 

[tylerhol]

Smells like Stanford (last year) early

 

[sweetcaroline1874]

Jason just doesn’t have it today.

 

[KenansDad]

Not a good outing from DeCaro so far

 

[6string]

Well it is the Tar Heel achilles heel pitching wise, a soft tossing lefty

Why has that seemingly always been the case?

 

[RogerThatHeel]

I would go ahead and pull Jason. He just doesn't have it today.

 

[GraceNugent]

DeCaro walks Didawick after a Harris line drive double, velocity on the fastball has dropped a bit

 

[RogerThatHeel]

You have to at least go out to the mound. Really surprised.

 

[GraceNugent]

single by Murray, great throw to keep Harris on third by Nunez in right. Gaines is shuffling out...

 

[TarHeelColby10]

Nunez can’t continue to play if he’s going to make reads that bad.

 

[premn]

gaines not here for a good time

 

[sweetcaroline1874]

This isn’t Jason’s day. Bases loaded again.

 

[goheels1117]

They’ve been putting pressure on us since the first batter of the game.

Meanwhile we’ve been putting none on them.

And the pipe may be about to bust from the pressure on us.

 

[RogerThatHeel]

Nunez can’t continue to play if he’s going to make reads that bad.

You have to catch that ball.

 

[sweetcaroline1874]

Nunez can’t continue to play if he’s going to make reads that bad.

I agree. It’s a major issue.

 

[AnsonCountyHeel]

Feels like malpractice to leave Jason out there… he’s struggling

 

[KenansDad]

Nunez can’t continue to play if he’s going to make reads that bad.

The outfield in general is nowhere near what it has been in recent years defensively

 

[premn]

Wayne being on the broadcast is really adding insult to injury

 

[TarHeelColby10]

Gaines’ pitching sequencing can be more than head scratching at times

 

[goheels1117]

I’m at the game, I never thought that ball had a chance to be caught. But it also still wasn’t a great read. If that makes sense.

 

[goheels1117]

Botched double play ball with the catcher running. Brutal.

 

[TarHeelColby10]

The outfield in general is nowhere near what it has been in recent years defensively

Well I mean… that was going to happen eventually. We had a generational center fielder then another 1st rounder.. but Owen has been fine and so has Carter. Seemed Maginnis was doing fine but

 

[RogerThatHeel]

Ugh, not going to be our day it appears. That should have been an easy dp. Good grief.
