Hogs vs Bama——Baseball

[Cardiac Hog]

Looked like DVH had some feedback for Wood on the way out.

I don't think we'll see Wood for a while, don't know what he did to upset DVH but looked like he'll be in the doghouse.

I don't think we'll see Wood for a while, don't know what he did to upset DVH but looked like he'll be in the doghouse. 

It looked as if Wood was shaking off some of the calls and/or not throwing what was called.

After the second HBP of the 9th, Hudson White looked pissed at him, as if he didn't throw what was called.

Judging by DVH ripping his ass, I wouldn't be surprised if Wood did it again on the leadoff double in the 10th.

Someone will have to handle PBP today.

[DirkPiggler]

I'm not going to be available either.  Maybe I can take over in the later innings if whoever starts it needs a break.

[Feral]

Diggs up to leadoff, Helfrick catching, and Souza back in the lineup.

Top 1st

Diggs up for the good guys. Yet another one where the SECN+ camera guy can't find the ball off the bat. Flies out to RF. 1 out.

Stovall up next. Strikes out looking. 2 outs.

Sandlot up next. Fouls one off the Bama catcher's mask the day after he had to leave the game after taking one to the throat. Strikes out.

0-0 mid 1st.

We look bad swinging at that slow curve or watching it over the plate.

Holt has been great in left this series.

Holt has been great in left this series.

Agreed. He's hit extremely well and flashed some leather.

McLaughlin up for the HOGS. Rips a leadoff single to RF. Runner on 1st.

Bottom 2nd

Hodo up for Bama. Runs the count full. Walks. 2nd straight leadoff walk for Brady to start an inning.

Snell up. Rips the first pitch down the 1st base line but just foul. Likely would have scored a run if fair. Grounds into a 4-6-3 double play!  2 away, bases clean.

0-0 mid 3rd

How do Bama's uniforms get so dirty when they haven't made any plays diving in the dirt? And we ain't running this pitcher swinging at first pitches.

[Feral]

Bottom 3rd

Slate up for Bama. Pops out in foul territory to Sandlot. 1 away.

Guscette up. Hits a grounder that bounces off the bag at 2nd and eats up Stovall, no play. Runner on 1st.

Lebron up. Flies out to the track in deep LF.

Hogs trail 1-0, to the 4th.

I think it's time to explore other options in CF.

Wilmsmeyer ain't it at the plate. This year's Parker Rowland.

I say give Edmunson a shot there.

He has speed and a nice glove, but no stick. The same could be said for Diggs right now. But, I think Diggs will start hitting soon. Wilmsmeyer, not so much.

Top 4th

Sandlot up. Belts a leadoff single to RCF. Runner on 1st.

McLaughlin up. Runs the count full. Grounds into 4-6-3 double play. 2 outs.

Aloha up. Goes from 0-2 to full count. Walks.

Souza up. Grounds out to 1B.

Hogs trail 1-0, mid 4th.

Yeah, we've seen Diggs hit against SEC competition and come up big in clutch situations. He's just in a textbook slump.

Wilmsmeyer is all glove and no bat. Plus he has the occasional derp in the field when unnecessarily swan diving and thus costing an extra base.
