T2 continued

Bases loaded...

Fraasman - P4 in shallow center
Serrano - K swinging

Soft contact for Boaz, but still 2-0 State after 1

Good escape
Now let’s score a few

Set down fack boy!

Great job by Folger to minimize damage and leave them loaded.

The last two nights, I sat beside some really nice state fans who were super complimentary of our program. Today, not so much. I mean, good for them, especially with the start they have had today, but I wouldn’t be talking the way they are if my team had just lost the series and got run ruled. I want to shut them up.

Is Macon hurt?

I’m more shocked at the first part of your post than the second. Hahaha...

Coooppppp

TaylorMadeHeel · Saturday at 1:26 PM

Crazy no excitement when the ball was hit and then ho-hum after it clears the fence. Shocking

Psycho50 · Saturday at 1:27 PM

Un bomba!

premn · Saturday at 1:27 PM

These nc state commentators are much more measured than the ACCN main duo was

SpencerHaskell · Saturday at 1:27 PM

That ball was smoked. Looked like a fastball from the pressbox.

These are state guys. It’s like when Colby is calling our games. Always happens when it isn’t nationally televised.

sweetcaroline1874 · Saturday at 1:29 PM

That was soooo close.

UNC23NDME · Saturday at 1:30 PM

Good relay, have to send him there.

Catcher blocking the plate too so chance of getting it overturned.

SpencerHaskell · Saturday at 1:30 PM

Hynek laces one down the LF line, Howe thrown out at home trying to score from first, play under review... sure looked like NCSU catcher was blocking the plate from where we're sitting.

TommyAshley · Saturday at 1:30 PM

T2

Winslow - K swinging
Paulsen - 3U
Nicholson - HR to center.....2-1
Howe - BB
Hynek - double to left, Howe out at home - REVIEW - out

2-1 State going B2

No, we didn't score in the same inning. So Moo has a killshot.

TaylorMadeHeel · Saturday at 1:31 PM

I don’t know the rule. But the catcher is definitely blocking his ability to get to the plate. Guess I’ll go google the rule explanation hahaha...

BigJulius94 · Saturday at 1:32 PM

Don’t know what the exact rule is but it looked like the catchers knee was completely blocking the plate

We’re front row to the left of home plate, and that’s what it looked like to me as well.

Just realized that on the next batter hahaha...

Psycho50 · Saturday at 1:33 PM

I think the ball getting there so far ahead of the slide made the plate blocking not seem as egregious

Just quick read on the rule.
“Buster Posey Rule") states that a catcher cannot block the runner’s direct path to home plate unless they possess the ball. If the catcher obstructs the runner without the ball, the runner is ruled safe.”

catcher had the ball before Howe got there. Correct call

UNC23NDME · Saturday at 1:35 PM

Does the rule change if he has the ball? I.e once he has the ball he can block more of the plate?

If not, wonder if they’re saying he gave Howe a lane with the back corner of the plate.

I thought it was score and then not concede regardless of top/bottom, isn’t it trying to quantify a momentum thing?

SpencerHaskell · Saturday at 1:37 PM

Much better second inning from Boaz...

L8
G4-3
G4-3

2-1 NCSU as we move to T3

No, it’s based off the inning. Scoring 2+ and giving up 0 in the same frame

Thanks for the clarification makes sense

Thank you. I had forgotten that

UNC23NDME · Saturday at 1:37 PM

Good bounce back

backer44 · Saturday at 1:37 PM

Don’t think plate ump even considered whether Howe had a path to the plate. He was too busy putting juice on his out call and staring at Howe. If I didn’t know better I’d think the turd was taunting him.

Nice work to prevent the kill shot.

premn · Saturday at 1:40 PM

French power surge continues

TommyAshley · Saturday at 1:40 PM

B2 - nothing for State

We really have no idea who is going to start game 3 of a Regional or Super do we?

Good question. But with how little length our starters are going, we will need Globe and Duff to finish games with some length. I don’t think we have a choice but Boaz. I actually think he is throwing better than Rose now.
