*Just FYI not that it matters now but there is no run rule in the NCAA Tournament. E.g. the 21-1 game previously mentioned against NC State.

Thanks. I knew that but forgot.

Thanks. I knew that but forgot.

See what coke does to your memory?   😜

Once again, we are hitting but can't manage to get "the" hit when it matters.

Top of the seventh.

Coloma (be sure and get your Coloma-oscopy as you age) grounds out to short. 1 away.

Resetich doubles to left. 1 on.

Cannon lines a double to the gap in right center. Run scores. 10-9. Runner at second, 1 out.

Riley PH for Ackerman goes down swinging. 2 away.

Kettering (walked 4 times today) runs the count full. Walks on a pitch above his head. Runners at first and second, 2 outs.

Palmer fouls out to first.

We luck out. Hogs lead 10-9 mid 7.

You have no idea. I grew up in the 60's.

Bottom of the seventh. Glad they put Edmunson in left instead of Lovich.

Wilmsmeyer leads off. Reaches on an E-5. 1 on.

Stovall singles to right. Runners at the corners, no outs. Let's see if we can score now.

Pitching change.....Miller (RHP) in. Their ace reliever.

White with a sac fly to right. Good job, White. Hogs up 11-9. Runner at first, 1 out.

J SLott walks. Runners at first and second, 1 out.

McLaughlin smashes one off the scoreboard!  HOGS LEAD 14-9! Another couch fucked!

Lovich reaches on an E-3. (Ruled a hit somehow)

Aloy takes a ball in the dirt. Lovich is thrown out trying to take second. 2 away.
Aloy grounds out to short.

HOGS LEAD 14-9 after 7.

History lesson: in 1910, president Taft attended a baseball game. He stood up to stretch in the seventh and the fans, thinking he was leaving, stood to show respect, thus beginning the seventh inning stretch.

Aloy is one of the worst situational hitters of all time.

Yep. He's got power but he's extremely undisciplined and presses like a MFer in even medium pressure situations.

[Sus-Scrofa]

We're hitting better 

[Hogfan58]

We're hitting better

Right when our pitching goes to shit

[Cornhogio]

I thought Angel Hernandez retired.

Top of the eighth.

First up goes down looking. 1 away.

Cameron runs the count full on strike three. Goes down swinging. 2 away.

Coloma goes down swinging and is thrown out at first.

Edit: someone walked that inning but I was out for a piss.

Hogs up 14-9 mid 8.

[Thin Red Swine]

That was a GENEROUS called third strike.

Someone stole his lawn mower. Seriously.

Bottom of the eighth. Hayes (WHP) in for SEMO.

Diggs singles to right. Maybe he is awake at the right time.

Edmunson with a sac bunt. Runner at second, 1 out.

Wilmsmeyer singles to left, and goes to second on the throw. Nice hustle by Wilmsmeyer. Runners at second and third, 1 out.

Stovall goes down on an ugly swing at a ball. 2 away.

White fucks someone's couch! HOMERS to left. HOGS LEAD 17-9!

J SLott goes down swinging.

HOGS LEAD 17-9 after 8. Where have these bats been all year?

[Feral]

Jesus what a terrible at bat by Stovall

[BleedinRed]

Great start to the post season for Diggs. 

[Feral]

Greg start to the post season for Diggs. 

No kidding.

Between him and Wilmsmeyer, hopefully this portends good things for those guys in the postseason.

Wilmsmeyer is 2-5 and has reached in every plate appearance.

[Son of Spam]

Greg start to the post season for Diggs. 

I don't know who Greg is, but also a great start!
