The pregame speech was pitching and defense,” Simoneaux said. “We know we can swing the bat, but in order to be a championship club we have to pitch and play defense.”
Gosh, wish I had said that. Oh wait, I have, many times!
Congrats to the Diamond Dawgs...again!
Except for one bobble at short for D Winn that lead to a unearned run for Nicholls St and a dropped foul ball by D Thomas the defense was very very solid -
Bradshaw could have easily left the game with a 4-1 or 5-1 led if we could have put two or three hits back to back -
The Dogs seemed to manufacture runs tonite instead of pummelling the team into submission - which is good because they will not be able to score 10+ runs every single time out -
This is a game, two years ago and early last year we would have had to play our weekend starters to win - tonite he got a good luck at a lot of young kids that could play big roles in key situations down the line in conference play and we still got the W -
Very nice win -
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
They did make up for the dropped foul by making a good double play right after that though.
It was great that a freshman got the start and got some experience while getting a W before conference play.
There weren't that many strikeouts by either team, just a lot of groundouts, fly balls, and a couple ridiculous tags on 1st. It was awesome how our pitcher faked them out with runners on first and third to end the inning.
I know Alsup got the W but I was talking a W in terms of the Dawgs, sorry for the mixup.
alsup got a groundout, then made a nice pickoff to get out of the 4th inning. he faked a throw to third, then nailed the guy on first.
burnett closing midweek games is just sick! i hate i had to leave early and miss it.
