So we brag on Vastine and he has defensive screw ups now in successive games. Come on Vastine, get it together.

Futrell had a good inning. Throwing strikes. Was sort of done-in by the Vastine error followed by an infield hit, but gets out three with no issues (though ball three looked awfully like strike three). 1-0 good guys.

P.S. These announcers are making me gag.

Yeah, sorry I started that post :(
The worst part of that error is that it doubled Futrell's 1st inning pitch count from 9 to 18.

VERY quick top of the second. Three up, three down for the Dores. Still 1-0.

I even said this might be the best infield ever. Oh well.

The announcers have gotten progressively worse from game 1 to today, and they were bad on Thursday.

Three up, three down thanks to a 6-4-3 double play. Runner gets on with a weak single to right, but the DP cuts him down. Time for some runs, Vandy, and shut these announcers' mouths.

That's inconsiderate that he didn't wait until we could see it.

I don't know where the 13 run per game Commodores went, but this weekend they have looked weak. And I didn't think Missouri had THAT good of a pitching staff. Kentucky pounded them last week.

Well that was a sweet inning. 3 up 3 down and quickly. Or to quote the Mizzou color guy: "FUTRELL LOOKS to BE in toTAL conTROL." (emphasis added where he did)

3 up 3 down for VU. Need to get the team's blood checked, as they are looking pretty anemic.

4 up 3 down. This time an error by Noland. He is not having a very good series.
Come on Dores, lets get some runs. This isn't Sandy Kofax out there pitching.

We then get a hit and a walk, but Diaz flies out. Still 1-0.

Even without a run, we needed to get some pitches out of this guy. Espinol and Bradfield got that.
