Hogs vs Texass - Baseball

[Sus-Scrofa]

FYI there is a softball game supposedly starting at 5:00 on SECN, so look for our game to start on the apps.

I've started watching on the apps even if it's on one of the big channels.  

The apps were a "type a smart ass comment and hit post" ahead of the main channels last night.

It is weird. Sometimes they are about a minute behind and sometimes they are a little ahead.

of course they do dumb shit like this.  they move games all the time for tv schedules, why not bump the softball game up 30 minutes?  or the baseball game back 30 minutes?

I just hope Wood can keep the ball down tonight. His last outings, he has kept it way up. I don't know if it is because of his injury or what, but if he keeps it low tonight, we win.

My impression from the strikeouts and the announcers was that he was throwing high heat on purpose.

Lightning in the area, small cell, will move through quick

I think this is correct also. There's a lot more that goes into pitching strategy than any of us will ever know.

Major League hitters have said that some pitchers response to the higher launch angle swings we see now has been to locate fastballs at the top of the zone. I've also had conversations with guys who are very qualified to give an opinion on the subject say that different pitchers will be effective in different areas of the strike zone based on a variety of measurable factors. That includes the top of the zone.

Then add in the scouting report for each batter and where there strengths and weaknesses are.

Only reason I say that is it's possible that Wood could be up in the zone tonight intentionally. It obviously worked for him last week.

Damn. I started drinking too early.

A matter of perspective sir. You'll be nice and ripe for PBP.

Add a pain pill and we're guaranteed a win

If anyone else can take PBP, please do. I am in a slump. If no one else can, then I may sacrifice myself.

Why is Ferrel not doing it?  

[Feral]

Why is Ferrel not doing it? 

At a kid's school event. I can potentially be home by the 3rd inning or so.

I've got a historically bad record with PBP so thoughts and prayers please 😂
