That's not exactly what happened. Venter is part of that equation and he is not able to dig out the less than perfects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will disagree and let it drop. There are too many at first base that he can't pick for him not to be part of that problem. You think what you want.

There is no way in the world that would ever happen more than once out of 1,000 ground balls up the middle the ball bouncing PERFECTLY into left to give him a double instead of a seeing eye single. We are the unluckiest team in the world. I swear this annoys the crap out of me. It's the hair!

AU64 10,122 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Feel bad for Burns....pitched winning baseball today.. Gotta be hard for the starters to keep confident when they see their good work go down the drain. Meanwhile, don't recall seeing Greenhill so looks like he is not going to be playing this weekend......time to use him would have been when Coker came into the game..... Hoping Mitchell can stop it right here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't expect Josh Anthony to come back so Venter needed a spot. I am not meaning to diss Venter at all. It's just not his natural position but I know he's doing his best. It's not the best fit for him. It's unfortunate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 So....even announcers seem to be questioning the run coming off the board.....any grounds for a protest or is this gonna just be another clip the video of worst calls by SEC officials...

SCTiger2011 1,277 Posted April 8, 2018 Author Share Posted April 8, 2018 Two line drives in the T8 hit right to Arkansas RF. And Venter just misses a bomb to LF. Tie game to the bottom of the 8th.
