Vanderbilt-Mississippi State Sunday

[roanoke]

We are really respecting MSU's catcher. Not running much at all.

Tee-hee.

Ok - when I wrote that - no attempts. Three attempts this inning - all successful.

[roanoke]

Wow - strike out past ball keeps us going.

Infante needs a fly ball here.

[roanoke]

Got it!!!
Tie game. For a second I thought he got all of it.

That was a good job. Nice base running by Ray makes a difference too.

[4timenatlchamps]

Good job, Infante!

[4timenatlchamps]

Let’s keep screwing with this catcher.

[wbl]

Time to get into their bullpen!

[UNCDore]

MSU’s uniforms are horrible.

Base hit now would be nice.

[roanoke]

Gordon coming in with bases loaded.

He shut us down - but pitched a lot Friday. Kaiser was having a lot of trouble with the slider - I would have left Billingsley in for that batter.

But the ump was in Billingsley's head and he had thrown 90+ pitches. I thought the ump was right on most of those - but they were all close.

Big opportunity with bases loaded 2 out. We could use a big inning.

JULIAN INFANTE AT BAT WITH MEN ON THE CORNERS AND ONE AWAY SAC FLIES TO LEFT SCORING THE MAN ON THIRD TO TIE THE GAME AT 2. AUSTIN MARTIN WITH A MAN AT SECOND WITH TWO OUTS SINGLES TO SCORE A RUN FROM SECOND TO GO AHEAD 3-2. MARTIN STEALS SECOND AND THIRD. STEPHEN SCOTT WALKS TO PLACE MEN AT THE CORNERS. JJ BLEDAY (SCOTT STEALS SECOND) BLEDAY ON A FULL COUNT WALKS TO LOAD THE BASES. CONNER KAISER WITH BASES LOADED TWO OUT (COLE GORDON COMES IN FOR RELIEF FOR MISS ST) KAISER STRIKES OUT ON 3 PITCHES TO END THE 4TH.

[roanoke]

We leave the bases loaded AGAIN. But we do have a lead. 3-2.

[Vufamily]

Well, Kaiser does begin with “K”

[charlestonalum]

We have left bases loaded twice: that could come back to haunt.

[dcdore]

Nothing gonna be easy

CHANDLER DAY IN TO PITCH.

[4timenatlchamps]

That first pitch was 82-mph cheese that Kaiser could’ve smashed the hell out of were he not late. Almost looked like he was waiting till he saw a strike then realized immediately that he was offered a BP pitch.

Good to get the lead. I have a feeling three runs won’t be enough.

[Vufamily]

Good job Chandler

[roanoke]

I love bringing in Day.

Coach says we will ride him as long as we can.

[roanoke]

Good lord we have struck out a lot tonight.

How many put outs do they have?? Swing for contact.

[4timenatlchamps]

This umpire isn't good, but he's more bizarre than he is bad.
