Another Friday night in the books. Another loss. There HAS to be a good reason that LB has stuck with Miller this long in the Friday night role.

Insanity.
Did you hear his post game? Slight paraphrase..."I could tell he didn't have it the first inning..."
He also refuses to shake up the top of his order. It WAY past time for that.
We also made some REALLY bad errors tonight that cost us. The same players continue to struggle in the field and at the plate, but no shake ups.
With 8 conference games left we are probably gonna have to win 7/8 & 2/3 @ USM who continues to pitch & hit well down the stretch. We have no consistency offensively - one game we’ll have 15 hits the next 5. If USM sweeps UAB it’s probably insurmountable.
Which means the tourney is our only chance to make post season. Gotta win this series, win 2 next weekend & hopefully have a chance the last weekend to win out & edge out USM & FAU for first. Need to throw LEAL 2-3 innings against Grambling then start him next Sunday.
Miller needs to go to middle relief
Let's go DAWGS!! It's pride and go time!
Game 2- Middle TN is crushing our pitching again today in Ruston. They lead 4-2 going to the B2.
But our bats have arrived. Bates with a 3 RBI double!!! Tech now leads 6-4 going to the 3rd inning!
Follis came in to pitch in the 5th and finally somebody put a ZERO on the board in an inning vs Middle TN. Why Follis doesn't pitch longer considering what we've been throwing is an absolute mystery.
Dawgs up 13 - 8 after five
Well I guess there is the answer on Follis. Did great then gave up stolen bases, a 3 run HR, and HBP.
Griffin to the mound. Bases loaded and Griffin strikes out the final batter swinging.
13-11 Tech We need another field goal.
Griff sits them down in order in the T7. Tech leads 14-11 at the stretch.
Dawgs up 14 - 12 middle of the eighth.

Someone suggested we rest our pitchers. Who was on the mound, the bat boy?
