Fayetteville Regional thread—-Baseball

[Barton Fink]

Regional rules for home-visitor are silly.  We need to jump on them in the 1st

Seems like we never score in the first.

[Hogslobber]

Which woopigger is behind home plate with the Tuck Fexas shirt ?

[Sus-Scrofa]

Seems like we never score in the first.

It's the inning version of the first pitch when Diggs is batting 

[Feral]

Seems like we never score in the first.

Would love to see the splits for the season, but I'd hazard a guess our run numbers are incredibly low in innings 1 through 4.

[Thin Red Swine]

Seems like we never score in the first four or five innings of the game.

Corrected.

[Cornhogio]

So they just said the wind is blowing in. Can we level out some swings and hit line drives?  Probably not.

[Son of Spam]

Bottom of the first. Wood on the mound. Let's get the leadoff man out for a change.

Kettering leads off. Grounds out to second. 1 away.

Palmer fouls out on a bunt attempt to the catcher. 2 away.

Stauss homers to left. Ferk. 1-0 SEMO.

Cameron goes down looking.

1-0 SEMO after 1.

[Sus-Scrofa]

Well shit

I guess they're full of shit...

Jeebus

[Thin Red Swine]

Ball on a tee. I'm just surprised he didn't hit it farther. Maybe it is blowing in.

[Son of Spam]

Top of the second.

McLaughlin leads off. Flies out to left center. 1 away.

Aloy crushes one just foul over the fence in left. Grounds out on a swinging bunt on a ball way outside to the pitcher. 2 away.

Diggs runs the count full. Walks. 1 on.

Holt flies out to center.

So far we suck at the plate.

1-0 SEMO as we strand a runner, mid second.

[Sus-Scrofa]

Damn thought that was gone 

[Feral]

This guy looks like the president of the A/V club and throws slower than the pitchers my son faces in 12U ball.

Of course we can't hit him.

Probably throws a changeup like Henry Rowengartner

[Rocky Mountain Hog]

Looks like we're trying to get this one over with in record time.

[Thin Red Swine]

No sideways motion on anything and Aloy swings at a ball a foot outside.

[Feral]

"If I'm Dave Van Horn I'm sending Diggs."

I get this guy throws junk and is slow to the plate, but Diggs is slow as hell and has been thrown out 3 times on 7 attempts this year.

Case in point: he was probably picked off at first there

I was thinking the only benefit would be if Holt would drive one into a gap. But of course our guys love golf too much.
