Announcer:  "It's still scoreless, but advantage LSU since Texas' starter is at 80 pitches in the 4th and LSU's is only at 50 through 3."

I know it’s like we only have one pitcher or something. I wasn’t aware that pitch counts got counted as runs these days.

That’s because we don’t face WF

Good pitching beats good hitting 9/10 times at this level. It’s why teams are able to ride the Landon Sims, Jack Leiter, Paul Skenes of the world in the postseason.

This batters stance is fucking ridiculous.   His head is like 3.5 feet off the ground

Look at where his back knee is compared to the inside corner of the plate.

I agree. But Holman is not those guys. He’s a fringe top ten pitcher in the country.

That’s my entire point. Saying we are losing because LBJ has a higher pitch count than Holman is dumb as shit

That's because you don't know shit about baseball.  No, they aren't counted as runs.  They translate into runs though in a lot of ways (fatigue leading to missing location, pitcher pressing, getting to the bullpen, etc.).  Kinda like what's happening now.

This roster was never going to hit early in the season. Hang around, find a way to be in this game when we get into their pen.

He said LSU has the advantage, that’s pretty much true. The game within the game and shit like that.

Agreed. He needs this opponent and extra juice to put it together.

LBJ isn’t missing location because he’s thrown 87 pitches. And pitch count doesn’t translate to runs if you have a bullpen that can get outs. Why you do you think baseball stopped pitching guys complete games?

Except it's true.  Holman going 3+ more innings than lbj is huge

You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.  At all.  That's about as nicely as I can put it.  I'm not going back and forth with you anymore.

I know that starting pitchers pitch fewer innings than ever before at all levels of baseball. Why is that?
