For those of you that don’t like a pitchers duel, y’all might want to find something else to watch. This is looking like a good one

No awareness by our hitters.  Step out on this mofo, call TO, do whatever to break his rhythm.   

Yup.

We need to be a smarter team.

What has worried me a little coming into Omaha is in the post season we have depended pretty heavily on getting walks and errors for runs.  We are gonna have to start hitting now.

The approach needs to change the rest of the game. Have to start trying to ambush fastballs. Like Madden he has two pitches, they are very good, but you just have to sit on fastballs. There isn't any point trying to work pitch counts, easier said than done but we need to be looking for fastballs early. If we keep getting deep in counts with 2 strikes it is going to be a long day. What are we going to do? Work Bednar's pitch count so they turn it over to Sims who is better..

Reminds me of Omaha Beach when the Higgins boat doors drop

So we’ll eventually break their defenses and burn them out? Sounds good to me

Not nearly as true as in the recent past.  But yeah.  We have kind of feasted on weak pitching.

Well you hope you catch him in trouble in the middle innings before they yank him. He gets to the 7th no trouble he’s on a super short leash. Get him up and 4-5-6 innings find some trouble get 2 runs and win.

depth and quality of the SEC....  uh they have 14 fucking teams.....    so yeah they have more teams.

sick and tired of this bullshit that the SEC is the greatest conference in everything except basketball.

ESPN has a HUGE contract with the SEC, just sit back and Clayton Williams.

Speaking of the name Rowdy. Did anybody sit out in the outfield at Rangers games and sit close to a little dude named Rowdy Ranger? Strange fella 

this had to be 20yrs ago

Other than one slightly hanging slider(?) and 2 missed strike calls that inning, not so bad. 

the strike calls worry me more than anything else, because we are getting rung up on the same fucking spot..... that starts to impact the game the 2nd time around.
