“Porter Brown is gonna drop a bunt”. 

[zlavydra 2121]

Well, that works just like a sac bunt.  Dutch pitchers can't field.

[Hookem2147 21285]

Works just like a bunt 

[chase25 2048]

Good AB by JT, inches from a 2 RBI double

[hobbes2702 13033]

Why the fuck is he slashing there?

To this crew well you know

[hobbes2702 13033]

Glad these guys suck defensively 

[zlavydra 2121]

Told you...

[Hookem2147 21285]

I thought he was going to throw away the one Thomas hit. Happened the next batter.

[BachelorTrek 2976]

LOL graduate senior pitcher can't throw the ball to home plate!

[hobbes2702 13033]

Break this open Jalin

That’ll work. Nice job Jalin. Love seeing guys not take fastballs with runners in scoring

Will take it

[Bevo&Pevo 5146]

Getting some insurance runs let's keep it up.

[zlavydra 2121]

4-0 Texas, mid-4th.

That makes the Thursday loss feel worse. 

We should have SWEPT these pussies!

[Had Enough 2081]

Time for Powell to sit a game out.

I know it’s come up, but that’s why with 2nd/3rd and 1 out the runner on 3rd should go on contact. We score nothing if he doesn’t. The negative is low risk.

[hobbes2702 13033]

Thanks for holding the bat there so we could confirm the you went around

Powell absolutely does not need to sit.

Grubbs looking pretty good so far.

Definitely easy on the eyes after the last 2 days

He seems to be our only “starter” that can consistently locate his breaking ball

[Hookem2147 21285]

Sunday guys who can move the ball around and throw strikes make me happy, especially with how bullpens can look by the final game of a series.

[wood 11225]

LOL that KSU dude is 0-7 since running his mouth. Nobody talks more shit they can't back up than people from Kansas and Missouri.

SRO in a stadium in the middle of NOWHERE in cornland state?  Good for you, because I couldn't do it.  Lulz.

Oh I could do it.

It would require 12-14 drinks and I might get kicked out but I could do it.

[hobbes2702 13033]

We wouldn’t be tied with Kst with a win guy. We would be in second

There you go Porter

I wonder if Qdoba is the best "Latin" food in Manhattan.

Long season. That’s what midweek games are for. He’s 4 for his last 21 and generally looked shitty doing it. 1 XBH is his last 13 games or so.

Yeah he needs a day off.

He’s your best player and your only player at a premium defensive position. 
A guy like that needs to play through slumps. Perks of being the guy

[Hookem2147 21285]

I don’t think KSU wants to bring in anyone besides Neighbors from the pen. Wonder if they try to get one more out of Boerema.

[jimmyjazz 45957]

Is the scoreboard operator drunk?

[chase25 2048]

Need Grubbs to keep dealing, KState just waiting for an opportunity to get Neighbors in the game

It is

[chase25 2048]

This KState team is full of cornballs

[zlavydra 2121]

How shitty is Manhattan?  I've been to Lawrence, and it wasn't so bad. Sort of a low-rent, smaller Athens, with more hills than I expected.

[Hookem2147 21285]

A starting pitcher who can command 2 pitches, is young and can compete is an endangered species in this program 

[Had Enough 2081]

It’s ACU this week for example. We shouldn’t need him.

What we need him is to hit like an all conference player. It’s not about working through a slump. It’s a slight moment to relax and regenerate himself.

We lost to A&M Corpus Christi 4 days ago. We no longer have the luxury of resting guys to try to get them through mini slumps.

It's actually not that bad for being in the middle of nowhere. Kinda quaint

We shouldn’t need him, but we do.

It’s not a matter of needing to relax. It’s a matter of hitting 500 for the first 3 weeks of the season and now paying that back. Which is why he needs to keep playing.

And again, there’s no one to play his position defensively 

Shitty dee

[hobbes2702 13033]

Max has to be smarter there. There’s one out and a runner at first, the only thing you can’t do is let the ball get to the wall. Such stupid stupid baseball

[texastroubadour 1210]

And Dee’s error 

and belyeu’s dive…

[hobbes2702 13033]

They are on the slider away, need to get something up under the hands 

[jimmyjazz 45957]

And here we go.  Fucking clockwork.

Lawrence is nice. I did a summer camp there for a couple weeks. 

There are much worse places to send your kid to school.

That’s an out. 
Nevermind, just foul

Edited March 30 by hobbes2702

[chase25 2048]

Is that reviewable?

[Hookem2147 21285]

Holy crap he was in fair territory 

edit: nevermind. Good call

Think Dee should have went for the back hand instead of rounding it off. I didn’t see a good replay tho.

Should have just fielded the damn ball. Was an easy play either way he just didn’t make it

Ah you just hate to see that… lulz.
