Boy. Sacrifice on a 3-1 pitch. talk about small ball. Looking for an insurance run.

Runners on 2 and 3. 1 out. MSU threatening.

That sacrifice was an inning killer. Damn shame. At least pinch hit Holland for Stovall in that situation. Dumb all around.

I agree with you there. You don't sacrifice in front of the nine hole unless you intend to pinch hit.

If you are determined to play Cohen ball, Why bunt a lefty on a 3-1 pitch to have a R-R matchup? One that is batting .233...

I don't mind the bunt but only if you pinch hit for Stoval, and I wouldn't feel constrained to use Holland, he could still come into the game.

Why do we pay so much attention to the guy on second when we have a 2 run lead? He's already thrown one away.

Announcers have come down with Jim Ellis disease. Last two batters they've called the last two deep but the ball never made it within 50 feet of the fence.

Poor read. Might have been trying to take advantage of the new catcher, but he was out by a mile with a delayed throw. Oh well, didn't hurt us.
