difball 310 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Terrible managing here - could have had a bunch more runs and forced the hand for the Bama bullpen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's how they do it in the major leagues The majors have more personnel.....different circumstances. Auburn's bullpen is like Andrews Institute......full of rehabbers.

tgrogan21 6,198 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Definitely don't agree with the second sac bunt. Moore bunts it right back to the pitcher who then tags Miller going to home. Dumb coaching decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tgrogan21 6,198 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Strike out to end the inning. Should have gotten way more runs but questionable coaching decisions, IMO. 9-8 Auburn B8th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
au302 2,669 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Certainly disappointing to not get more right there but a good response after a demoralizing top half of the inning. Will be interesting to see who all we have left in the pen for these next two. Is Morrison a guy who can go multiple innings? Never mind Barnett coming in.

tgrogan21 6,198 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Barnett in to pitch for Morrison. Guess Morrison can't go more than a couple batters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have pretty good defense and really good hitting. The problem has been injuries to the pitchers.....especially Jack Owen and Richard Fitts. It's bad luck that so many injuries happened all at once but it has been the biggest contributor to Auburn's woes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't had any injuries since SEC play has started so these pitchers should be getting back up to speed from the injuries. Can't blame those injuries the entire season.

tgrogan21 6,198 Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Lead off single. Sac bunt to move runner to 2nd. Double and bama ties the game again. Once again, our bullpen gives up runs immediately after we score. Should have kept Morrison in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tgrogan21 6,198 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Strike out for out 2. Intentionally walked to set up the force. Barnett walks the batter after going up 0-2. Bases loaded, 2 outs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't just pick up a ball and start where they left off. It does not work that way. That's why Huddy and Butch have to let them pitch.....that 's the only way those kids can get back into their pitching rhythm. The Tigers are still missing Fitts, and that's a big thing.

tgrogan21 6,198 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 My god, Williams with a great catch at the wall to save a double. 9-9 going to the ninth. Hope we have someone in our bullpen to come in and get outs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
