Well, time to get back into the grind. Lots of baseball this week, starting with the Little Rock Trojans. We better not take them lightly, as they did beat Ole Miss. First game is on Tuesday at 6:30PM on SECN+. Next game is Wednesday at 5:00PM on SECN which will probably have a women's softball game or pillow fighting or cornhole go over until about the third inning of our game. As usual, GO HOGS!

Thomas's hit should have probably been scored a double and an error by the CF for misplaying it off the wall and half-assing (and then an E6 for the misfire to 3rd). That was some piss poor effort and that kid deserves to get his ass chewed.
LR's defense, especially their OF, has looked like a 7U team this inning.
EDIT — and Aloy reaches on an E6. That's 4 errors in the last 2 innings, and 2 in the same inning by the shortstop.

Seriously...if I've missed it, I apologize, but isn't this a record for games in which we run ruled a team?

They showed a graphic last night that showed we had 9 last year and this was our 14th so far this year. I don't know if 9 was the record or not.
Any way we could play an in-State team like every Saturday morning for a few innings to get our hitting confidence up?

Apparently the reason Dietz didn't make his debut last night is this. While he was stretching the mount for the band he was using came loose, flew back and hit him in his head. The cut required ten stitches to close.
This came from his dad via X.
