Baseball vs. North Carolina - game 2

[AUDub 11,147]

Leaving the bases jacked gives me an ominous feeling. Hope Bailey gets it together. 

[SCTiger2011 1,277]

Put 32 pitches into their guy to start it off and put some pressure on him. Lets put up a zero and get back to work

[WeaglWeaglWDE 599]

Gotta pull him. 

[around4ever 4,139]

Nah.  You don't go deep in the bullpen up 1-0 in games.  You try to get at least 4 out of him.

Home plate umpire giving us an inconsistent strike zone again today. 

[AU64 10,122]

Two more walks...BH  having some problems but might get out of this.

Just here but looks like UNC beat up on Horn in the first and maybe we were lucky to get by with only 2 runs

[WeaglWeaglWDE 599]

You dont WANT TO. But when he's all over the place you have to get someone warmed up. 

[tigerbrotha12 2,362]

Horn strands em at the corners.

2-0 UNC B2

Getting out of that one Big

I am so disappointed in this umpiring crew. They’ve been so inconsistent behind the plate 

[around4ever 4,139]

Come on Blue.  That was below the knees.

Yep...you would think the umps would be top notch for the tournament .....but both teams …..lots of batters looking back on that umps on some of the called strikes....

[tigerbrotha12 2,362]

2 strike calls in Steven that should have been called balls according to his last 2 innings. Just be consistent 

[jw 4 au 526]

It appears to me they are having trouble calling anything with side to side movement. Horn comes from a wide lefty’s arm slot crossing over or into the plate. Their guy is throwing darts 4 inches off the plate with a good frame job by the catcher and they call it a strike. 

[tigerbrotha12 2,362]

Entire complexion of an inning can change on one poor strike/ball call. Yes, they’re human, they make mistakes, but be consistent for Pete's sake.

Howell with a 2 out walk.

Side bar question, was Tracy Rocker at the Vandy game to watch his kids No-No?  I don’t think they ever showed him, but showed his mom a lot. Just curious. I wouldn’t miss that type of game for the world!!!

[SCTiger2011 1,277]

Telling ya, I like the looks of this UNC pitcher for him to hit the eject button soon and break down. Keep it 2-4 run deficit here early, keep in contact during the middle innings, and take advantage when he inevitably gives you a mistake early in an inning. 

52 pitches through 2 innings. 

[tigerbrotha12 2,362]

UNC 1b makes great play to end the 2nd. 

2-0 UNC T3

Tigers need to hang in there on D

Yes, he was there.  They showed him at the end.

As much as I want to watch live, I'm only following along on this thread. Not watching it. 

[tigerbrotha12 2,362]

Nice 3-2 pitch by Horn.

Appreciate your dedication. But if UNC puts any more runs across we’re also going to have to ask you to close your browser and not report back to the forum until later this afternoon. We apologize for any inconvenience 

[tigerbrotha12 2,362]

Horn misses not even close on 4 straight and walks the next guy. Really wanna see him settle down
