Can we not play this tournament anymore please?

Or maybe play better?

[David Dennison 18946]

Was he skipping? 

[Horny Bull 2766]

Shaw on to pitch.

[D3zii 3722]

lol no. Quite the opposite actually. Our bullpen has looked better than any we've had in the last 3 years.

Yeah I can tell you didn't actually watch any of those games. They looked good. Your schtick is getting old. 

 

15 hours ago, NorthLoop said:

If you've actually watched every game then you'd know that our pitching, both starters and bullpen, have looked pretty damn good this year despite the opponent. Yes Cal Poly sucks, but a shutout sweep has only happened for us 3 times ever. If your opinion is that our pitching hasn't been good before this weekend, then you don't know a fucking thing about pitching. 

Some high quality takes here

[Horn80 6131]

Might as well go back to coaching 3rd base Pierce.

[BlackCat 441]

[Nueces River Rat 5539]

This so reminds me of some of our football teams of the not so distant past.    Pierce needs to be on the hot seat.  

[BillyGoatHill 4312]

Blown 8 run lead.....fucking ridiculous

[David Dennison 18946]

Being up 11-3 just scares you to death.

[Capn81 373]

Is it the tournaments fault?? 
 
just wondering 
 

Not the tournaments fault, but if your coach cannot get his team ready for them, maybe pass on an invite?

[Bevo&Pevo 5218]

Somewhere aggy is licking their chops.

They'll probably still aggy that game up and lose but I am getting very concerned about a 4 game slide if we don't pull this out.

We're saving Chase Lummus for Aggy.

Nice combover...

[Bevo&Pevo 5218]

Dad is gruntled.  That takes some doing.

[BillyGoatHill 4312]

So that's what happens when you throw strikes and get ahead in the count... 2 quick outs 🤬

[WBT 20669]

Wow, thanks for not taking advantage of Flores there

[David Dennison 18946]

Barf.

[shadow_operative2.0 16028]

Three incredible ABs. 

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Why can't our choppers to first bounce over the fielders head into right field?

[Horny Bull 2766]

Vandy charges out of the dugout mid-play to celebrate a routine ground ball.

[tx 3 putt 77426]

This tournament is a great early season ‘temperature’ check for this team / program 

[BillyGoatHill 4312]

Waste of a leadoff double.....

Did you see Gasparino's double? We're not losing because of bad breaks

I have not been impressed with how they've carried themselves.

As said upthread, historically this puts us in good position for Omaha.

Gasparino chopped a 2-run double over the 3B's head

[BillyGoatHill 4312]

GD...let that ball go foul...

Historically it keeps us from national seeds (or even hosting regionals), which makes the path harder and means you have a harder path when upsets get you to omaha.  It needs to change.

You expect our players to be smarter than they’re coached .. or their coach for that matter?

[Bevo&Pevo 5218]

Let's get a DP here.

Dead cold.

FUCK....ballgame.

What a shitty fucking performance. ALL WEEKEND

[The_Great_Hornsby 3283]

This team needs A LOT of work before we can even discuss winning a regional.

My bad. I should have been more clear or at given a trigger warning. 

[jimmyjazz 46130]

I'm out, going to the Bob Marley movie.  I thought our earlier games were signs of hope, turns out we just played shit teams.  Maybe Pierce will generate another upward trajectory over the course of the season.
