Bradfield starts it with a sharp single.

Lefty throws over about seven times keeping him close.

Makes life hard on Young who chases a bad pitch for strike thre
Then Bradfield gets picked off.

We are NOT playing well.

I’ve always felt the #2 batter should be a contact maker. Young is it one

Let's just go home now ! Bradfield's lead on that play was absurd, especially in this game situation. Vandyboys need to start thinking. Wasted a good opening opportunity.

Keegan swings at ball four in the dirt. And we are out.

Corbs needs to not chew them out - he needs to tell them they can't win it alone. Do your job.

They are all trying too hard. Announcers right - Bradfield is fast enough not to take a show-off lead and get picked off. Keegan can't swing at ball four,

Awful first innz with 2 errors on defense then on offense Bradfi caught at first too far off 1st and 3rd strike and out swinging at a ball. Flush it.

Interesting re: the conversation between Brown and Little. Maybe good to see Little so fired up? Heck, I’d be pissed at my teammates after that start as well.
And as I type this Thomas makes an error. What the hell. Wake up!

Thomas loses one in the wind.

This is a little league start for us. We have to get our heads together.

Poor Little is pitching well - getting really screwed in the field.

I am done with this team. They are more interested in going out for pizza after the game than actually concentrating on winning.

Little's curve is moving about a foot. CJ having some trouble catching it.

Thanks Vaz ! Maybe the others will take some fire from him. Little doing fine, needs help in the field.

VAZ with the beautiful layout snag! Saved at least one run, probably 2. Little is pitching fine. Hopefully others can wake up. That was a huge momentum play.

Vaz saves a run with a diving grab down the line.

We have made terrible plays in the field. But we have also made two run saving plays in the field at crunch time. In two innings.

Now our batters need to try to take a base. Not hit a homer. Walk. Get on. Go with the pitch for a single. Play like a team.

With any other LF Vandy has played this year, the score is 3-0. Great play Javy, way to pick up your pitcher!
