Shriner's College Classic Weekend Thread

[Fletch 5799]

Man, great eye by Daly but he’s killing us at the plate lately. Really need him to break out of this slump. Maybe move him down in the order and take some pressure off him

[ztejas 43262]

Despite lack of results we're working his count pretty well. Curious to see what their first arm out of the pen has.

[Valmy77 13093]

Oooof I hope we turn this around the next time through the order.

Well that's a good way to look at it.

Hansen is dealing.

 

they’ve hit some hard ones off him

TN #23 is impressive. See how long he can hold up 

[cabowabo 4451]

Great camera work.

Why is Daly batting 4th?

Because he is...or rather was...awesome.

Hopefully he will soon be awesome again.

In theory to have pretty much speed at the top, Melendez drive them in, then use the 4hole as like another lead off spot, get speed on base for Todd and Messinger or stehly or whoever to drive em in then have our contact/pitch workers at the bottom

Calling it like it is. And that's a hit. Very early.

I just don’t remember him having the power to be a cleanup hitter.

I know. I was hoping the MLB network could bring a little professionalism after the amateur hour of our previous away games.

[BachelorTrek 2934]

There's nothing worse than a broadcast team missing your hits because they're disinterested in covering your team and are busy looking at the crowd.

At least we got to see Orbit🙄

[LTtxfan 48962]

Anybody see that hit ??

[Mo Horn 8807]

Tennessee pitcher is impressive early on. 

[ztejas 43262]

Nothing wrong with that inning. That was, what, 25 pitches? Keep chewing at him.

Yeah we are not catching up.  Kid's a freshman too.

[SL Xpress 7505]

I'm just thankful to get a single. This dude for Tennessee is dealing. I'm still hopeful the 2nd and 3rd time through they'll have a better chance of catching up to his pitches.

Well the only real power hitter we have hitting 3rd. But Daly hits doubles.

He went 5 innings against GA Southern and Iona, i think. I doubt those guys worked the count much.

 Stehly would be a nice 3 hole hitter rn.

Keep working the count, hopefully make Tennessee change pitchers in 5th or 6th innings...

Yeah, hodo had a good swing on him. Melendez had a great ab and just got under one. Daly had a good ab. He’s getting close to getting out of that funk. Stehly of course singled. Silas made him work. We’re gonna get this fucker out of the game

[Mo Horn 8807]

This camera work is pathetic. I think they're all college students trying to learn on the job. 

[cabowabo 4451]

Nobody gives a fuck about Shriners Hospital.

Yeah he and Melendez are interchangeable there at the moment. Though that potential extra ab being in the 3hole for Melendez would be nice

Nice job there Pete 

[Fletch 5799]

Tennessee looks like us under TNic on the base paths 

[ztejas 43262]

The ease with which Daly ran that dude out was amazing. 

[WBT 20415]

Not ideal execution on that rundown

[Valmy77 13093]

Ok Pete shut them down.

Yeah! Fuck the name of the tournament and the awareness with donations and proceeds and all that shit and this great cause that’s everything good about college sports!!!!

Need to get this pitcher in the stretch early in the inning to tame his stuff. Lfg

Ivan’s footwork less than stellar there. Had to reach across his body and didn’t have much to spare.
