Did we ever hear an explanation of the ball thrown into the net last night but our guy was not awarded first?

Real curious about that motherfucker.

I think they are considering the net as a continuous barrier that’s in play for a thrown ball.  If a ball is thrown to home from center and it sails over the catcher and hits the net, it’s not out of play; the runners don’t get to automatically advance a base.  Similarly, if it bounces off the turf and the railing and hits the net and comes back, the ball is in play.  That’s my cockamamie explanation anyway.  

[Pato del Muerto 52,640]

But since when has that been true?

[rivin 199]

Hell yeah! 4-0 Texas

[HenryJames 66,193]

Nice hit.

[TexArcher 38,081]

Man, that's a nice piece of hitting right there.

Rogers Hornsby, imo.

Did that bomb clear the scoreboard???    Watched the replay several times and cant see it bounce back onto field and cant tell if it fell in scoreboard and outfield fence.

[ztejas 43,557]

Damn Glavan smoked that shit.

Either cleared it or hit towards the top and fell down. Hard to tell.

That's it for our Wednesday night Ace.

Wind was blowing in from LCF on that Galvan bomb too. It was crushed.

[ClubWhatever 12,159]

He tole that guy off

[Hookem2147 21,372]

All these damn lefties we continue to face

[ClubWhatever 12,159]

ODowd does the impossible 

[Had Enough 2,088]

Told you shitbirds this offense has potential.

I don't think Mercer is a good litmus test for anything - but it is baseball and whipping shitty teams isn't always a given.

Let's not start sucking each other's dicks just yet.

[hobbes2702 13,084]

Thanks blue

[Bevo&Pevo 5,231]

Cash register is ringing it's ass off.

[HenryJames 66,193]

Galvan is better than Johnny Bench.

[Bevo&Pevo 5,231]

EK with a double and an RBI.

[Had Enough 2,088]

It’s Mercer guy

Have we ever scored this many against Mercer?

[ztejas 43,557]

I wonder if they have a pitcher on the staff capable of not getting absolutely shelled.

We may do it in one game tonight

[ClubWhatever 12,159]

This pitching change seems to have backfired.  

[Pato del Muerto 52,640]

And that reminds me all the way back to the ecu super

[rivin 199]

These guys kind of suck

[TexArcher 38,081]

9 runs on 7 outs.  Is that good?  Seems good.

Makes one wonder who they play to get 35 wins or more every season

[Hookem2147 21,372]

I heard good things about Grubbs in the fall. Missed the first few weeks of the season with a knee issue.

Yea that doesn’t make any sense

Orville Wright at bat

[HenryJames 66,193]

This batter was one of the Village People.

[Had Enough 2,088]

I’m just messing around. I was thinking this is the most runs we’d ever scored against Mercer. Because we’d never played them.

I’m aware this game proves nothing. But gives tons of guys playing time. Maybe builds some confidence in some guys.

[TexArcher 38,081]

How many opposite field knocks do we have the last two nights?  Feels like it might be a double digit.

[Hookem2147 21,372]

Daly appears to have one swing plane early in counts and if the ball doesn’t intersect with that plane it is not being hit well
