    Re: Bulldogs Open Three-Game Road Set with Old Dominion

    I listened to this inning and noted it thinking it might be lucky and end this funky losing streak...

    Tech trailing 4-5 in the top of the 7th with only 3 hits posted so far. The lead off batter Clayton walked followed by Netterville reaching 1st on an error while the runner at 1st advanced to 2nd. In my opinion while on a losing streak, being behind and on the road we should’ve been bunting to manufacture a tying run but didn’t even attempt it. Tech got lucky that a double play ball wasn’t handled properly. Following a wild pitch both runners advance to 2nd & 3rd with 0 outs. Another wild pitch scores the tying run with Netterville going to 3rd. Our 3rd batter Garcia grounds out to the pitcher with Netterville staying at 3rd. Wallace singles to score Netterville. Tech leads 6-5. Young singles to advance Wallace to 3rd but is out at second, 2 out. Wells grounds out to end the inning.

    The next inning ODU hits a 3 run homer to go ahead 8-6 with no outs, so I’m done. No matter what we do, we seem doomed to continue this losing streak.

    Another 3-run homer as the Tech bullpen is pitching batting practice.

    Burroughs looks pissed as he makes his third pitching change of the inning. 9 runs so far makes it 14-6 ODU.

    He should be pissed...as should all Tech baseball fans...good coaching and teams GET BETTER as the season goes on(barring key catastrophic injuries), not worse...what have we seen the last 3 years? And to think that as recent as 2 or so weeks ago people were talking regional as well as Top 25 material....wow...it's why I've never gotten on that train until you into conference tournament time..sad...
    Well, maybe a shiny new stadium in 2 years to showcase this stuff...

    This really is the season when Tech baseball suddenly became pretty much nothing. With that being the case everything about Tech needs to be made new, a new facility, new players and most importantly a new head coach with no existing coaches allowed to remain behind. This disaster of a season (I hate to use that word but it is entirely appropriate) has to be exorcised. Burroughs is simply not the guy to lead this program, he proves it again and again.

    At least he had a set and gave a post game interview tonight. He admitted his failure.

    A new article has been posted on www.latechsports.com:



    The Louisiana Tech baseball team saw a pair of two-run home runs from designated hitter Many Garcia, but it was not enough, as Old Dominion exploded for 14 runs on 19 hits, propelled by a nine-run seventh inning, staking a 14-6 win on Friday evening from Bud Metheny Complex on the campus of ODU.

    I've said it before and I'll say it again.....our school seems to have a "mental block" about ODU. (It's the same problem we have with Southern Miss.)

    LA Tech couldn't beat ODU in checkers, much less a real athletic sport.

    Leal looked just about like last year's form today. Complete game for a 4-2 Tech win in the opener of today's DH.

    Mallard homers lead off the top of the 3rd in game 2 to put Tech up 3-1.

    Burroughs’ post game comments after losing the series say it all, he was pleased with the effort and satisfied to split today. That’s to be expected from a guy who has mediocre expectations of himself, his staff and his team. Tech has won one game in 7, but hey we won one. At this rate we’ll finish the year 2 wins & 14 loses. But hey what do you expect when we’re in a slump, that’s baseball.

    Yep but under Burroughs we slump the same time each season. Just in time to blow any chances at the post season. He inherited a good team but complained about there being no depth & not enough athleticism and after 2 yrs of his own recruits we still have no depth, no internal competition & another year end collapse.
