Maybe that was our strategy tonight?
We always seem to have a good excuse, don't we?
This is the only game I've watched us this season. Can our catcher make throws to 2nd ??
I think Labas will take a weekend spot before the season’s over. I think he’s better than Gilbert.
LSU’s hitting is not much better than ours, but our bats just weren’t working tonight.
It happens. It’s baseball.
Yeah. "Problem" tonight was Leal is a soft-throwing pitcher with what appears to be a long delivery. If he's throwing 90+ mph fastballs instead of 70 mph junk, then those guys are probably out at 2B. Clayton may have double-clutched on one or had to re-grip or something. He's usually solid behind the plate.
That's what I was thinking!
First game all season we didn't give away any outs, and we only struck out 3 times. Yet we got shut out. That's baseball.
I wanted to win, but it's not like we'd earn some kind of "bragging rights" had we won. Like '06 said, they stole bases on our pitcher, not on our catcher. It would be great if we had a coach who could teach our guys how to read a pitcher w/out getting picked off.
Other results were not favorable for Tech last night, so its RPI dropped from 57 to 68, more than the expected drop of 7 positions simply by losing.
Tech's predicted pre-conference tournament RPI is now 54, and that gives Tech only three conference losses (all to Southern Miss). Tech needs to do no worse than that to be in the at-large discussion.
Are you factoring another W at Grambling. They played Arkansas a great game last night. The unthinkable could happen…
The bolded shows how lazy our research is -
I'm holding a 2008 baseball media guide and it has our record against LSU as 18-40 - EXACTLY what LSU's record indicated prior to the 2015 game
Damn we can't get out of our own way
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
That's not laziness it's BS
It's both. Our research is lazy, and then we lie about it.
Our baseball SID should never use "all-time" because it's inaccurate, unless they are getting the info from other schools' media guides that actually have all-time records. Just admit that our media guide only goes back to 1970. "Since 1970..."
our SID is doing what our AD tells him to do
Hey, why stop at fudging the attendance?
WarrenNolan added the May 9 game with Grambling to Tech's schedule as soon as the date became official.
Tech is predicted 18-3 in its last 21 games to finish 42-14 (24-6). All wins predicted except the three games at Southern Miss.
