Fayetteville Regional thread—-Baseball

[Hogfan58]

It's like we've never seen this guy pitch before, either live or on tape.

[Cornhogio]

This guy is slinging a no no on us.  Ohio Valley midweek reliever, embarrassing us.  FFS

[Thin Red Swine]

This feels like one of those "welp, that's baseball" type of games.

This guy is mowing through our lineup, and when we actually do barrel up a pitch it's right at a defender.

We've only barreled two, but even that seems like a big enough sample size.

[Feral]

DVH's bullshit about not wanting to face our team because now we were hitting...

We used up all of our hits for the weekend. 

2021 Super Regional 2: Electric Boogaloo.

[Son of Spam]

Bottom of the fourth.

Palmer up. Doubles to left. 1 on.

Stauss (who homered last AB) runs the count full. Walks. Runners at first and second, no outs.

Cameron runs the count full. Singles to right. Run scores. 2-0 SEMO. Runners at the corners, no outs. We are toast.

Pitching change......Faherty in.

Mugan with a swinging bunt. Faherty tries to glove it to the catcher but screws it up. 3-0.

Cannon with a sac bunt. Runners at second and third, 1 out.

McGahan grounds to third. The throw goes home for the out. 2 away, runners at first and second.

Riley singles to right. Run scores. Throw goes to third, then back to second. Called safe at second. Under review. Looked safe. Ruled safe after review. Runners at second and third, 2 outs. 4-0 SEMO.

Resetich goes down looking.

SEMO leads 4-0 after 4. We ain't coming back. I have seen this movie before and know the ending.

Like I've said ad nauseam, now many times have we seen a guy with a 5.0+ ERA come in and mow through our lineup like Mariano Rivera?

It's been years of this bullshit. Todd Butler was better than this.

[Sus-Scrofa]

We're still going to win 

[Thin Red Swine]

We're still going to win

Not if they score 3 or 4 this inning.

[Thin Red Swine]

Helfrick has to call for the cut off there. Big mistake.

[RazorB]

Worst 5th ranked team ever.

[Feral]

Worst 5th ranked team ever.

What was last year's team ranked?

But yeah, this is worse. Getting blown out by a white hot 2 seed is one thing, but getting punked in our own regional by a 4 seed is terrible and unacceptable.

[Show-Me Hog]

This team is so frustrating that part of me kind of hopes this is it and I don't have to pay attention any more.

[Feral]

Not if they score 3 or 4 this inning.

You called it.

How many times have we tried that glove scoop toss on a bunt play? It literally never works.

[hit_that_line]

We've known we've had major holes for a while.

SEMO.

Shit. Arkansas baseball has no business losing to these guys. Baseball team is a bigger disappointment than football or basketball.

[Thin Red Swine]

That's our level of stupid base running. 

[hit_that_line]

SEMO.

Shit. Arkansas baseball has no business losing to these guys. Baseball team is a bigger disappointment than football or basketball.

Year and a half or so ago at LRTD club Yurachek said things won't always stay good. It's literally been shit in every sport since.

[Thin Red Swine]

Now the effort stops? Diggs HAS to go catch that ball. He would've had to get dirty but guess what. 

[Hogworth Ballington III]

How hard is it to keep a tag on through the slide? It wouldn't have mattered there, but too many times I see the baserunner coming in with a full head of steam and the defender just applies an olé tag instead of keeping it on them in case they come off the bag
