Hogs vs Georgia—-Baseball

don't get swept on the road, win the home series, and take care of the midweek games. that'll get a top eight national seed, right where you want to be.

If we go .500 the rest of the way in SEC play that will be plenty to get a national seed.

A national seed is the only thing that matters.

I assume he would be at the top of our list to replace DVH when he retires. Hopefully he doesn't win a natty first like Vitello.

In DVH's presser yesterday, he was asked by a few of the Georgia beat guys about Wes.

He said point blank that leaving UA for the Twins was an extremely tough decision for Wes and that he was very emotional because he was deeply attached to Fayetteville, UA and the program. Said they talk a lot and Wes has called him quite a bit about career advice.

Wes was asked yesterday about his relationship with DVH and talked at length about how he basically worships him and emulates him.

Wes is undoubtedly the #1 guy when DVH retires.

I can take PBP if no one else wants it.

TBD tomorrow, and probably a no on Sunday.

Top 1st.

Davalan, after about 650 feet worth of 100+mph foul balls, strikes out looking.  1 out.

Aloy the Elder strikes out swinging.  2 outs.

Maxwell lines out to the track in LF.  3 outs.

(EDITOR'S NOTE:  we are going to time this motherfucker by the next trip through the lineup.  Three really hard hit balls that inning.)

Mid 1st.  Hogs 0

[Son of Spam]

Not worried. We usually don't look too good in the first.

[DirkPiggler]

Bottom 1st.

Alford, no known relation to the annoying as fuck Indiana guard turned mediocre coach Steve, hits a pop up to just shy of the warning track in CF.  1 out.

Zbhroudhf strikes out swinging.    2 outs.

Burnett, no known relation to Carol, walks.  Runner on 1st, 2 outs.

Root balks...allegedly.  Fuck this first base ump.  DVH, the Georgia broadcasters, and I disagree with the call.  Runner on 2nd, 2 outs.

McCarthy, older brother of actress Jenny, with another 85 mph pop up that makes it to the warning track of this 12u softball field.  3 outs.

End 1st.  0-0.

[BleedinRed]

Sure looked like a strike and an offer on that first pitch bunt.

Right down the middle and he offered.

[Son of Spam]

Fuck these umps.

[Son of Spam]

I was worried about the away umps fucking us. Guess we will see how the game progresses.

[DirkPiggler]

Top 2nd.

Iredale flies out to CF. 1 out.

Kozeal flies out to the track in LF.  2 outs.

Aloy the Younger swings at strike two for a swinging strikeout.  Fuck this ump (strike two was the worst frame job ever...catcher caught it two balls outside and brought it back for a called strike).  3 outs.

Mid 2nd.  0-0.

[BleedinRed]

Georgia fans need to act like they have seen a baseball game before. 
Booing at every check swing and balls 2 feet outside the zone not called a strike.  

[BleedinRed]

Hey blue, that's a fucking ball!

[Gambler]

Wide ass strike zone.

[DirkPiggler]

Bottom 2nd.

Phelps strikes out swinging.    1 out.

Adams takes strike three for a 3-2 walk.  Again, fuck this ump.  Runner on 1st, 1 out.

Jackson doubles to LF.  Runners 2nd and 3rd, 1 out.  Not gonna lie...I thought that was way out of here.

Obee grounds out to 3rd.  Runner, who shouldn't have been on base, scores.  Fuck this ump with a rusty tire iron.  1-0 UGa.  Runner on 2nd, 2 outs.

Branch hits one way the fuck out of here.  3-0 UGa.  2 outs.

Alford flies out to RF.  3 outs.
 
End 2nd.  Hogs 0 Georgia 0 Home plate ump 3.
