UCLA Game thread

[57stratdawg]

No runs top first. UCLA coming to bat.

 

[Shamoan]

A bunch of attemptingly exciting music now on the radio....did ucla score the lead off bunt with two consecutive bunts??

 

[KurtRambis4]

Hudson gonna Hudson.

This kid throws a lot of pitches...that usually aren't strikes.

 

[msstate7]

Ucla pitcher making us look bad

 

[skydawg1]

Ucla pitcher making us look bad

For the 3rd game in a row.

 

[Shamoan]

Still 2013 I see

 

[rugbdawg]

This year won't be as bad as last year only because

we know Cohen won't be returning. Dear God we suck.

 

[Dawgbite]

Score?

 

[skydawg1]

Score?

1-0, UCLA. Top 3rd coming up.

 

[KurtRambis4]

To be fair,

Canning's not exactly chopped liver.

 

[KurtRambis4]

Hudson's control issues continue.

21 pitches, 15 balls.

 

[Shamoan]

Ok guys....lets bunt and hbp our way back in this...( sends message....laughs for a few seconds, then crys......)

 

[KurtRambis4]

What's funny is that is

exactly what they're doing to us, and winning.

 

[57stratdawg]

Seems familiar.

 

[dawgatUSM]

I can't tell by watching periscope but Bart says this is an extremely tight zone

 

[KeyserSoze1999]

At least we aren't still using those 2013 Adidas bats! They looked neat but weren't really functional.

[msstate7]

I don't think adidas bats were the problem last year. We could use those guerilla ball bats and not score on a decent pitcher

 

[Shamoan]

Luckily, they bunt into a 3rd inning out and keep the two run scoring explosion win still within sight.

 

[GhostOfJackie]

First base hit

in southern California, by a Southern California guy.

ETA: Cohen calls timeout to talk to our batter during a 1-1 count. What the ****?
ETA: Tells Collins to fly out to 2nd

 

[KurtRambis4]

Canning doesn't seem to

be having an issue. He's pumping the zone.

The issue is Dakota, not the strike zone.

 

[Shamoan]

Above the belt = irresistible pitch

Right down the pipe = let's wait and see another pitch

 

[KurtRambis4]

It's funny that people

honestly thought the bats were the issue last year.

 

[57stratdawg]

Still 1-0. Mid 5.

 

[msstate7]

Still 1-0. Mid 5.

The problem is they have 1 and we can't score anything on a good pitcher

 

[57stratdawg]

2 now.

 

[msstate7]

2 now.

Might as well be 20. Don't use any of our better relievers in this game... It's over

 

[tatedog]

On the bright side, the UCLA vs FAU matchup in the CWS Finals should be a series for the ages.**

 

[KurtRambis4]

We really needed to do something

there, with 1 out and runners on 1st and 2nd...and our 3 & 4 hitters up. 17!

 

[121Josey]

Freddie Kruger just needs to stop. He's scaring the **** out of our hitters.

 

[Faustdog]

We like to ***** about announcers here, so I'll give credit where it's due. These ucla radio guys are really good.

I would have never thought that Dakota Hudson's pre-pitch stance looked like a surfer on his long board.

 

[msstate7]

there, with 1 out and runners on 1st and 2nd...and our 3 & 4 hitters up. 17!

K and k... That's 10 and the pitcher's career high in the 6th inning. We suck

 

[121Josey]

K and k... That's 10 and the pitcher's career high in the 6th inning. We suck

At least State hasn't gone 1-11 with runners in scoring position. State is just 0-2.**

 

[GhostOfJackie]

there, with 1 out and runners on 1st and 2nd...and our 3 & 4 hitters up. 17!

Too much to ask for bunch of losers. It's in their blood from the last 2 years.

 

[Shamoan]

From what I hear, Fau by all accounts should go pro. They are that good.

 

[KurtRambis4]

The two guys there

are first year players.

ETA: speaking of Kruger and Lowe

 

[Bulldogg31]

honestly thought the bats were the issue last year.

They weren't the only issue, but they sucked nonetheless.

Given the choice this season, there's not an adidas bat in sight.

We wouldn't have won either way last year, but those bats were ****.

 

[KurtRambis4]

They may

or may have not sucked, the larger issue was the hitters. That's just a fact. A good hitter would've been fine with those bats. We had bad hitters last year. You cannot argue that.

 

[Shamoan]

Sub .500 will be cohens legacy in sec play. That is pathetic. It's become a damn shame what we have been conditioned to accept. Any team with a set of balls would fire that sorry suck ***. I predict another year of sub .500 play in the sec and a 3 seed at best. For us as state fans, this result should be an unacceptable slap in the face. Yet, we argue, "that's baseball", after every 2 game sweep by Fla. Atlantic. It's kinda weird that somehow every up and coming team with something to show or a pitcher with an extraordinary arm dumps our pathetic *** every single season over multiple series. Would lsu accept this season after season? The answer tells you everything you need to know. Apologists, please explain cohens lack of results the majority of time he has been here minus a single season which he is apparently incapable of building on...

 

[Bulldogg31]

Nope. Not arguing that at all. Bad hitters AND a bad approach. Add in crappy equipment and it was not a good mix.

Unfortunately not looking much better right now...

 

[Shamoan]

Serious question,...at what point does cohens antics become unacceptable? How many years do we have to play .500 or sub .500 sec ball before people start to demand more for such a decorated program?
