Baseball vs Mississippi St Game 1

Wow.  That pitch sequence featured a 95 mph fastball and a ridiculous 12/6 breaking ball.  That guy that just struck out is probably the SEC player of the year.  Let's hope the bullpen can keep it to 2 when this inning is over.

Well KT is done for the night...trailing 4-2 and Klobo comes in to get the final out in this inning and inherits 2 base runners.

He really needs to throw strikes right away.

Not a bad outing for KT....did not have the best of luck defensively but went 107 pitches or so...and it was time.

Same old crappy song.  Need to throw that juke box in the lake.

[AU64 10,122]

Well ....didn't take long...a sharp single to right brings in run #5.....and still 2 runners on base...

[AU64 10,122]

Well....a bouncer / grounder to 2B ends the inning but AU now trailing by 3 going to the 8th.

AU is just not feelin' it tonight....

Not sure why BT didn't pinch hit for JJ there.  He certainly isn't panicking, which I love.  Players will follow his lead.

Pretty blah game all the way around.  Good win for MSU...will be tough to take both games of the DH tomorrow, but I'm pulling hard.  Track 'em Tigers.

Connor Davis grounds into a double play to end it.  5-2 MSU, final.

 Boy...that was a real lackluster effort . Thompson had some control problems but pitched well enough to win against most teams. But in general they sure did not look ready to be playing for the lead in the conference.

Unfortunate way to start the series.
