Robbins got charged with all 7 USM runs, two that are on HCLB. Tech retired in the 6th still down 7-1.
Those two gift runs probably put this one out of reach.

Better stream with no 90-minute timeout or spam ads. Site still hasn't gotten the news that KNBB isn't an ESPN affiliate.

10-1 USM after 6 as Logan has been allowed to stay in too long.
"The new pitcher for Louisiana Tech is _______, but the damage has already been done".
At this point I don’t know why we’d use any more pitchers today. We’re not coming back so we might as well take our thumping and save what pitching we have left (if you can call it that) for tomorrow.
So typical of Tech... a good upset win one day followed by an all out embarrassing performance the next day.
Oh well, as they say “that’s baseball for you.”
HCLB has waved the white flag, and an extra base hit or two more singles now will end this one early.
Walk and two singles finished it off with two outs in the 8th.
USM 16-1 FINAL.
USM 16 - Tanner Huddleston 1
It's probably happened at least six times this year… Dumbest play ever was today though… Runner on second and third, no outs, sharp grounder to third base, and our runner goes on contact. He was dead at home. Who is coaching these guys?
Loss cost 3 RPI points. Tech settled at 55 RPI last night, and the current number is 56. Predicted RPI still at 61.
A new article has been posted on www.latechsports.com:
The Louisiana Tech baseball team allowed a season-high five home runs, as No. 9 Southern Miss took a 16-1 run-rule victory in eight innings on Saturday afternoon from Pete Taylor Park.

Discuss it here.
It’s going to take a monumental over-achieving effort for Tech to win game 3 beginning with something close to a season’s best pitching performance. I don’t think we can afford to give up 6+ runs.
I know Tech is capable of playing well enough to win but with everything included we’re still going to have to overcome that Southern Mississippi jinx that always seems to decide things.
Get it done Dawgs! Make us proud! Make this season be for something!
