What does it say about our offense where we're writing off a game in the 2nd after just 2 runs?

(For the record, I'm with you)

I have not been on the fire Nate Thompson bandwagon, but I'm getting there.  We are looking like shit with elite talent that isn't developing.

were we not down 7-0 against Tech earlier this week?  That worked out for us.  I'm not writing off anything.

Stop taking everything we say so literally. 

I actually think if we smarten up a bit we'll hit this guy.  See the editor's note above.  We're barreling some balls against him when we lay off the junk out of the zone.

Apologies. 

Just because my attempts at humor are not funny doesn't mean you should assume they are serious.

Wy did Lovich not tag on either of those fly-outs?

[BleedinRed]

Two well hit balls but just couldn't find a landing spot.  Got a run though.  

According to the announcers we are not getting good swings on the pitcher.  Seems incorrect based on the last four at bats.  

[Pig Benis]

What a piss poor crowd. There's no one there.

You're very rarely going to tag on first base when the ball is hit to right field.
