Baseball vs LSU Game 1

[SaltyTiger 7,789]

just dam

[AU64 10,122]

Lead off single, pop out and then one over the LF wall....and it's 8-4 now

But TB is still out there .....guess even after 90 pitches he is as good as anyone else we have available  ?

Next batter rips one to right center for out 2.....chance for Burns to get out of this.

Daniel warming up......hope TB gets of this and if DD is needed, he comes in with clean bases.

[AU64 10,122]

94 mph....Burns still has some heat.....even approaching 100 pitches.

Think this is precisely the reason.

[AU64 10,122]

Anthony saves a poor throw to get the final out...and Burns leaves with the 4 run lead....pitched a good solid game....

[AU64 10,122]

Venter pulls one down the 3B line for a single and AU starts with the lead off runner on base......

Estes at bat....little bounce to the pitcher but runner advances to second.....not a sac bunt but same effect....but at least Mikey will be OK...

[AU64 10,122]

Boy the scouting report on AU is "can't hit the curve ball".....the current LSU pitcher is scared to use his fast ball....no matter what the count...but getting it over about every time and Jarvis takes two strikes in a row and is called out. 

now two outs and Anthony at the plate...

[AU64 10,122]

Anthony gets good bat on the ball but lines to the RF for the 3rd out....

So new pitcher for AU....to get the bad guys for the last 3 innings.   

Greenhill to finish up....we hope... 

[Tigerbelle 5,299]

I'm putting in my order for double digits...

[AU64 10,122]

OK....nice work by Greenhill...one hit but he was definitely in command..

[AU64 10,122]

3rd LSU pitcher..... having some problems getting the curve over now... walks first two batters and that is it for him...

AU with 2 on and no outs.....chance to open up the lead a bit more....

[AU64 10,122]

Wright with a swinging bunt to advance both runners.  CBT has come up with a new way to move runners along without actually bunting the ball....worked pretty well tonight...

[SaltyTiger 7,789]

2 across double Ventor. 

[AU64 10,122]

double to left by Venter and 2 more runs come in ....

double digits for Belle.....Julien thrown out trying to take 3rd and another hit brings in another run..

now 11-4....

 

[SaltyTiger 7,789]

1 more in 11-4. have left 10 on tonight

[Tigerbelle 5,299]

Thanks Tigers.....double digits !!!

[BJCrawford 1,568]

That was awesome

[AU64 10,122]

 

AU wins....11-4 

nice 3rd to 2nd to first DP squelched the little rally that LSU looked to have.....

Greenhill solid tonight...about 40 pitches.....not too bad if we needed him in the SEC I'm thinking...

[BJCrawford 1,568]

War Eagle!!!!!!

Can't sweep without a winning the series first.  One at a time my friend.

Kinda was hoping we'd use Daniel after Burns to save Greenhill for Saturday, but I fully trust CBT. And tonight helps if we need Greenhill in the first game of the SEC tourney. Nonetheless, great win. War eagle!
