PowerOfDixieland 3,226 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Got the notification for game start on the app and we've already loaded the bases. Lead off single, back to back HBP...bases juiced and nobody out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerOfDixieland 3,226 Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 And just like that KSU gets out of the inning. I still worry about our offensive sitauational awareness and inability to move runners. Dyal K's looking, LaRue does advance all three with a sac fly and then Howell grounds out to third, stranding runners at 2nd and 3rd.

PowerOfDixieland 3,226 Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 Trace Bright on the mound in orange and blue. Gives up leadoff single, SB and a throwing error....KSU runner at 3rd with nobody out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerOfDixieland 3,226 Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 Bright gets the next two, then gives up an 0-2 single. Coach Nix used to make pitchers run a mile for time if they threw a strike in an 0-2 count. Watched a guy walk away from his scholarship over that once.

PowerOfDixieland 3,226 Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 Out of the inning with no more damaged After 1, Auburn 1- KState 1. I'm out for a while now...... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SumterAubie 3,031 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Auburn scored 3 times in the top of the 3rd, twice in the top of the 4th. Lead 6 to 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerbelle 5,299 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 Old School......listening to a baseball game. Tigers getting the bats going today but not facing great pitching either...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerOfDixieland 3,226 Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) Back now for a minute. Looks like Bright has been staying in the strike zone so far. Auburn pitching gave up way too many walks in the first two games (12 total). Edited February 20, 2022 by PowerOfDixieland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerOfDixieland 3,226 Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) Live stats are locked up I guess. Auburn apparently fianlly brought the hammer in the top of the fifth. After five complete AU 11 - KState 1 Edited February 20, 2022 by PowerOfDixieland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerOfDixieland 3,226 Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) Chase Allsup with an electric first appearance in an Auburn uniform. 96-97 mph on the fastball...three straight strikeouts...potential closer material for sure. 12-1 Auburn after six complete.

tgrogan21 6,198 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) Strikeouts are a huge issue, IMO. It's early, though, so I'm hoping that improves but striking out 14 times against *this* pitching is really bad. Edit: We ended the game with 17 strikes out against an abysmal pitching staff. That has to improve, plain and simple. Edited February 20, 2022 by tgrogan21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad_ATX 13,654 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 I've been in the wrong thread with live updates. My fault y'all. Long story short: Auburn pitching good K State pitching REALLY bad 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ump had a strike zone that was all over the place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

au302 2,669 Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 2-1 on the weekend is very good. Encouraged by the pitching. Gonzalez was a bright spot last year so glad to see him shove yesterday. And nice to see the bats wake up today, even though K. States pitching sucked!

I know he's coming off of TJ surgery, was that pre-determined? Outside of the HR that Hayden Mullins gave up and the 15 walks issued, that pitching staff was mostly lights out. Allowed just five runs over three games. Edited February 20, 2022 by PowerOfDixieland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerOfDixieland 3,226 Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 Meanwhile Mississippi State (vs. Long Beach), Vandy (Oklahoma St.) and Florida (Liberty) all lost two of three in their weekend series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming it was that, the first game of the season, and him coming off of the surgery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
