When is Pierce going to start his best three pitchers on the weekend?

Probably not just after LBJ had has longest outing. I suspect we'll see him on Saturdays or Sundays soon enough.

Or did you mean Walbridge?

Would be interested in seeing younger Duplantier a little more, especially against a lefty like we are facing tonight.

I agree.  See what he can do now.  See if he can field on the regular too.  ODowd can field but his bat is so slow.

Tonight's game is on ESPN+ it looks like.

Doesn't really matter before conference play. Until then the weekend and mid-week games count the same.

Reward performance. 

[petscii 1189]

Need 6 runs...  

[Hookem2147 21188]

LBJ was never getting moved into the rotation this weekend but this actually sets up nicely. Our toughest game next week is probably Sam Houston State on Tuesday so it will be nice to have him fully rested for that one. We should be able to beat 1-6 Manhattan next weekend with any of our 3 starters.

So LBJ can be full go for SHSU, then throw a shorter outing the following Tuesday against North Dakota State and be ready to join the weekend rotation in the final series (New Orleans) before conference play.

Starting against #1 LSU isn't a reward?

Good to see Powell at first. Thomas is hard to watch at times

[Hookem2147 21188]

So Powell in for Thomas

I like it. He has to be better defensively and I'd like to see him get more AB's

I meant that more as a factual thing. He'll snap out of it. However, that half inning sucked. 9 pitches?

@kingkoopa6 how many people at the game? Looks like a weak crowd.

It's a California crowd, what do you expect?

[Valmy77 13225]

Those bastards talking about the 1984 and 2004 College World Series. 

[Horny Bull 2759]

Fullerton has loaded the bases with two outs.

[Ewreck10 288]

Good to see Lucas is dialed in.

[Valmy77 13225]

Gordon with a rough start. Bases Loaded with 2 outs.

[troph 24781]

God dammit Texas.

[GreenspointTexas 9598]

I cant take this center field cam

 

 

i may not make it another inning

[troph 24781]

Zero reason for that nonsense.

[Horny Bull 2759]

0-0 after 1.

[Fletch 5800]

31 pitch inning. Great 

[ClubWhatever 12120]

He’s on track for 270 pitches.

Yeah. What has California ever given us? Besides Ricky Williams...and Augie Garrido...and Lucas Gordon.

[VinyVango 684]

This broadcast quality is like bad historical baseball footage from the 1960s

[kingkoopa6 8344]

We have the a whole row to ourselves. And I’m 10 feet from Pierce

See this is what almost all of them used to be like. We are all spoiled by the LHN.

But still, this is ESPN. I expect better.

Ah yeah. That sucks shit. I remember the Long Beach State Regional when we would be up until 1 AM every night.

I was pretty relieved the PAC 16 thing never panned out after that.

I am starting to wonder if we are ever going to score again.

That bad, eh? 

Doesn't sound like that's worth $10, neither.

Radio-only it is, then.
