Ole Miss- Huge Series

Post by vandy86 »

Actually the title says it all. Everyone will get a measure of where this team stands. It will set the table for the rest of the season. I just hope our schedule up to this point has prepared the team for the long haul of the SEC week in and week out
Anchor Down DORES !!!

If we can hold Ole Miss to 1 run or less per game I like our chances.

Difference is we have squandered multiple opportunities. They have had one opportunity - and took advantage. Very frustrating.

Runner at third nobody out in first - no run.

Second and third - one out in second and we advance neither. Bradfield bunts and it’s a run.

Luckily Noland’s two run homer keeps us going.

Still, execute. Gotta make contact when you need it.

First inning was a fluke. 1st and 3rd no outs and Schreck shrieks one down the first base line, but the first baseman was holding the runner and didn't have to move, doubling off the runner. No way he could have gotten back.

Maldonado still hitting the extras. Now 4-2.

Good guys up 5-2 in 4th.

Bradfield and Diaz make contact with 2 outs. Well done.

We have really reached OM’s starter. He had 88 pitches still going in bottom of 4th & he has zero walks?!?

We flashed some serious leather in the 6th.

Holton pitches a good game. Pulled after a lead-off single in the 7th. Good job.

Additional homers in the eighth by Polk and Shreck. 10 runs, 14 hits. Very good fielding.

Basically a banner night for the good guys. Well done.

Point proven about the Evansville game.

We could have had 17 runs instead of a 17 inning game...If guys would have been "allowed" to swing the bat...instead of watching strike after strike go by. Something about "pitches that could have been hit into the Centennial Park lake from the Hawk" was mentioned if I recall.

That was refreshing. The first SEC vs. SEC 10-run rule call was in a Vanderbilt curb stomp of Ole Miss.

Wouldn’t that be a foul ball? But a long one!

Mr Memorial, are you serious in your constant whining about the players not being allowed to “swing the bat”? I thought you were being sarcastic. Do you actually watch the games?

I watched all 17 innings vs Evansville. You obviously saw none.

Also, the first part of the 2011-2012 season was an unmitigated wreck for the same reason. I was at many of those game. People on this particular forum were getting quite tired of the moratorium against swinging at strikes. It's almost like Corbs goes through mood swings.
