North Alabama

Post by Levon »

Underway, 2nd pitch groundout to Gonzo at 3rd for 1st out. 2nd guy out 6-3 after an 11-pitch AB...we'll done by UNA hitter.
Biggest change tonight, Keegan catching. Max said Romero not yet healthy enough to play. Noland at 1B. Gonzo at 3rd, Thomas back in RF, Davis in LF, Schultz pitching.

8-pitch walk to #3 guy, K's the #4 guy, up to 27 pitches in an otherwise quiet inning.

Big start for UNA pitcher, gets EBjr on a soft fly to RF. Gotta be a sigh a relief for him. Walks Young after getting ahead 1-2...couple of close calls went Young's way.

For the 2nd inning in a row the 3rd hitter gets on base, this time a HBP, then steals 2nd and scores on a line drive single to RF. Thomas very lackadaisical fielding and throwing home, I thought he would have a play. The 7-38 UNA Lions strike first, 1-0.

Perfect hit & run, soft ground ball to exactly where Young had been but had vacated to cover 2nd. Schultz gets out without more damage on a routine 5-3. Time to wake up and score some runs.

Good question, Max & Andrew haven't said anything. I'm a little surprised Davis is playing in front of Laneve.

Thomas leadoff HBP, steals 2nd. Jones swinging K on a sweet change up after fouling off several pitches. Thomas steals 2nd on first pitch to Kolwyk.

Kolwyk swinging K on high, tailing fastball, Thomas still at 3rd. Davis bunt single, but Thomas can't score as pitcher fielded down 3rd base line. Up to Gonzo to get him home. Doesn't have to...Davis steals 2nd, Thomas races home when 2B was unable to catch the ball as Davis slid into the (non)catch. He would've been out if 2B could've squeezed the throw. Good thing, Gonzo goes down swinging. 1-1 going to 3rd.

1-out walk after Schultz got a 1-pitch flyout to RF. 2nd out on a higggggh fly to LF that on the swing on TV looked like it was going to dent Memorial. I guess he got under it. Keegs gets the 3rd out with his first caught stealing of the season, not even close. Nice!

New Lions pitcher in 3rd. The starter was angry in the dugout after the 2nd, didn't seem to appreciate the defense behind him; don't know if that's a factor in the pitching change. Regardless, new guy gets EBjr looking on a beautiful slow curve.

Young smokes a 1-out double high off the Monster in left. He looked to be picked off on an early break to 3rd, but the pitcher balked when he saw Young break. Keegs with a long fly off the RF wall, legs it into a triple. Yeah!! 2-1 Dores.

After a swinging Noland K, Thomas legs out a big bouncer that takes a funny hop that gives the 3B trouble, Keegs scores, 3-1. Jones big bouncer 4-6, 3rd out. To the 4th.

Gonzo nice pick up of grounder to his left, 5-3 first out in 4th. And another HBP. Sigh...

Schultz at 70 pitches, 2-0 on hitter. Brownie visits, Berkwich starts throwing in pen. 4-pitch walk isn't encouraging, 1st & 2nd with 1 out.

Noland nice catch on short pop for 2nd out, but UNA scores on next pitch on a double steal. Say what? Keegs throws to 2nd on steals, runner inadvertently kicks the ball out of Kolwyk's glove into short LF and runner at 3rd races home. Not pretty. Schultz eventually strikes the next guy out on his 82nd pitch.

Vandy very flat tonight against 7-38 Lions. Kolwyk swinging K on changeup (?), Davis straightaway F-8, Gonzo swinging K on a fastball. Dores look to be going thru the motions.
