Gartman getting the start

 

[Lawdawg.sixpack]

These black tops and white hats are TRASH. It’s like we’ve gone back to Russell…

 

[57stratdawg]

Double steal gets a run home. Not sure why Hancock threw that down to 2nd.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

ASU scores on a 1A Highschool double steal… how many years has Hancock played baseball?

 

[Anon1669338224]

He double clutched, which still didn't hold the runner then threw it. At least Larry got us out of it with only the one run.

 

[dog99walker]

How many times will this double steal work for a run until we wise up to it. This is not the first time this year!

 

[Anon1669338224]

Is anyone else's ESPN feed have a NBA game sound in the background? I logged out, and it's still there.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Hancock gets the run back he cost us.

 

[57stratdawg]

We’re making good contact on Manning. Hancock and Dakota’s balls were both hit hard.

 

[Anon1669338224]

Good job putting up a crooked number.

 

[57stratdawg]

ASU with a solo shot.

This game might take a while

 

[Podgy]

Lemonis really needed to bring in a Friday ace.

 

[Anon1669338224]

17ing shift killed that inning

 

[Fishsqeezer]

Hancock doesn’t need to be catching, he can’t throw anyone out! I’d rather see the freshman

 

[CochiseCowbell]

Was that not interference at 2nd?

 

[Drebin]

Pitch count too high for gartman. May only get 4 out of him. That's a killer.

 

[Drebin]

These black tops and white hats are TRASH. It’s like we’ve gone back to Russell…

Looks like ****. We have perfect uniforms available.....not sure why we don't wear them.

I don't like the black jerseys generally, but they aren't as offensive as those white hats. At least we aren't wearing black pants.

 

[57stratdawg]

Ledbetter with a chance to break this open in the bottom of the 4th.

Bases loaded after Larry was HBP.

 

[57stratdawg]

Boom! 9-2 good guys. Grand slam.

 

[dog99walker]

Ledbetter with the SLAM! Tending is not as good as he was yesterday. 9-2.

 

[beachbumdawg]

Crushed

 

[Podgy]

and boom goes the dynamite. This is what we're used to which is why when the team looks awful in several games it's hard to accept.

 

[Drebin]

Crushed

What happened there is what's been happening to us a lot early in the season....you keep falling behind guys and have to give in with a strike, and you're gonna get hurt.

Colt knew he was getting a center cut fastball there and he didn't miss it.

 

[anon1787432961]

What was the exit velo of Marcel Ledbetters grand salami

 

[dog99walker]

Gartman has done the job that a starter has to do-get ahead of the batter.

 

[Fang1]

Nice bunt by Forsythe too

(ducks head)

ETA: forget the bunt……(raises head)

 

[Dawg1976]

I knew the guys had it in them. Never a doubt. Give coach Lemonis a big raise.

 

[Podgy]

Check out Forsythe getting in on the fun. Sac bunt and this.

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

All aboard the Lane train!

 

[cowbell88]

LANE!! Must have gone to weight room this week!

 

[anon1787432961]

4strykes goes YARD

 

[WilCoDawg]

Hancock doesn’t need to be catching, he can’t throw anyone out! I’d rather see the freshman

Lemonis must’ve heard you since Hancock is now at 1st.

 

[Podgy]

Hines looked like he was limping a little.

True

it’s like graveman told my son after one of his bullpens - as you get older, if you miss over the plate, you’re asking the ump for a ball

 

[Xenomorph]

We played two damn fine games Saturday and Sunday. Nice to see some guys stepping up.

 

[Seinfeld]

Every time I’m about out on this team, they go and do something like this. The young talent is extremely promising even if they somehow don’t put it all together this year

 

[Podgy]

Now that I've had a chance to reconsider my initial thoughts from the first inning, those unis look pretty good. 16-3 good. The ones they wore Friday just didn't look as good.

 

[maroonmania]

Maybe we just weren't ready for the bright lights starting out. Who knows. We certainly have talent though if we can consistently perform and not fall apart on the mound. Honestly, if we hadn't totally blown that Saturday VMI game we would still be in reasonably good shape right now. Still hard to stomach losing a game when you outhit your opponent by 10 and the opponent was a sucky team. Just have to keep plugging away. USM is not going to have the RPI we thought they would after getting swept by Illinois over the weekend.

The black tops with the white pants actually do look good IMO. Much better than the all blacks.

 

[MSUDC11-2.0]

We have a pretty high ceiling if we can scratch out decent pitching. Our lineup is strong. Just cannot be a disaster on the mound.
