Baseball vs. Arkansas - game 1.

[wareagle13 88]

JOSH ANTHONY BREAKS LOOSE!!!! 3-run HR and the announcer straight called it. Announcer goes "Anthony is a good matchup against a sinker-ball pitcher his swing plane works perfectly for this pitch" Second pitch the ball leaves the park.

[WarTiger 3,896]

Anthony drives one DEEP to left center and its OFF THE SCOREBOARD.   Anthony's first homer of the season.   Auburn leads 13-2.  Great swing.

[PowerOfDixieland 3,225]

[PowerOfDixieland 3,225]

I knew it was an auburn player but i missed the first inning and didn't hear the introductions.

[mustache eagle 2,388]

that last pitch was naaaaaaaasty

thompson strikes out 2 and sets them down in order for the first time tonight.

going to bottom of 4th inning.  13-2

[PowerOfDixieland 3,225]

Keegan Thompson didn't miss a beat after sitting through that long half inning.  Ridiculous 3-2 curve ball for the strikeout to end the inning.  Who throws a breaking ball in a 3-2 count with an 11 run lead.  I guess when the coach doesn't call pitches Blake Logan gets to have all the fun he wants.  Another reason to absolutely love Butch Thompson.

sorry! i was wrong.  they said "Mark" so i looked it up and apparently (i assume) it is mark fuller who pitched at auburn

[mustache eagle 2,388]

keegan thompson at 77 pitches after 5 innings.  Keegan looked good but can he last 2 more innings?  please please please

auburn up 13-2 after to of the 5th

[mustache eagle 2,388]

auburn with 11 hits in the first 4 innings.  every batter has a hit.

[mustache eagle 2,388]

roberts bloops to short stop for 1 out

arky changes catcher and announcer makes a comment about how fat he is ... funny comment

connor davis long liner to left center and stands up at 2nd

HOMERUN for ingram

15-2!

[WarTiger 3,896]

Ingram crushed it and its GONE.  Auburn leads 15-2.  

[wareagle13 88]

Ingram with a 2 run HR! I'm thinking getting benched shook him up and let him reevalutate his approach he's swinging much sweeter now. Also anyone watching, does anyone know what that glove is that connor davis puts on his hand when he's on base? It looks like a mitten, maybe protects his hand from getting stepped on?

Davis hit the double to left center, ingram crushed hit straight away center.

[PowerOfDixieland 3,225]

More smiles on that field tonight than in the previous ten seasons combined.  This is starting to look like a freight train going downhill.

[mustache eagle 2,388]

I heard at the KSU game this week he recently broke his pinkie on that hand.  Not sure if that's correct but it is definitely to protect that hand.

It's all those little things that have been coached into this team and it has made a huge difference.
