SumterAubie 3,031 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 This is good stuff, good baseball. To take 2 of three AT lsu, then stay focused to beat Vandy. Sign of a good ball team 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUlurker 178 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Timely hitting carried us. We were very fortunate that walks didn't cost us more runs. 7 walks total is way too many. A lot of times it created scoring chances for Vanderbilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitchers giving free passes is the fastest way to lose that I know of. We were doing better in that department until last night, at least it seems to me that we were. Lets hope this 7-walk game was an oddity and not the start of a trend. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is considered a "down" year for them right now. Today's game will be a real test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw 4 au 526 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Trace Bright on the bump for Auburn. Fly out, backwards K, walk (after up 1-2), then their stud Keegan batting cleanup out looking at strike three (outside fastball). Blake, Kason, and Sonny due up to start it for the Tigers.

jw 4 au 526 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 (edited) Freshman Carter Holten from Guyton GA (Benedictine i believe) on the mound for Vandy. Fly out to RF out of bounds for Rambusch (about where that stupid bench is at TAM), Kason SO on a nasty curve, THEN Sonny with a deep HR to deep center field. Brooks Carlson grounds out to 2b to end the inning. 1-0 Auburn after 1 inning of baseball on a beautiful sunny day in Auburn.

jw 4 au 526 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Lead off single for Vandy through the 5-6 hole, swinging bunt to pitcher out at first but moves the runner over, then another backwards K for the second out (that’s 3 so far), then last out 3-1. Trace Bright working ahead to most batters. End of his second inning with 35 pitches or so on the arm. Moore, Foster, Pierce due up. 1-0 good guys.

jw 4 au 526 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Moore grounds out to the pitcher, Foster nice hitters hit to LF, BB for Pierce, fly out by LaRue, good at bat by Farquhar but grounds out 4-3. 1-0 Tigers after 2. Holten with 42 pitches already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw 4 au 526 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Bright on the mound to start the third. Five pitch walk to kid who never moved the bat, Fly out to LF, line out to Third, and LaRue with the caught steeling at 2B by the SS. Nice inning by the team. Too if the order due up. Still 1-0 AU.

Tigerbelle 5,299 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Classic Tim Corbin baseball.....stealing bases at every opportunity. Happy that Nate LaRue was ready for it. Great play by Auburn defensively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jw 4 au 526 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Blake starts us off with a deep grounder to third and beats it out, and now they review it to call him Safe (close but tie goes to the runner). Now a 4-6 ground out on a close play and under review again (still out on something I guess they felt like they couldn’t overrule). Sonny up and fly out to RF, then a deep fly out to LF with a nice climbing the wall catch by that Vandy kid. 1-0 Auburn after 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw 4 au 526 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Dang, first pitch HR to Center. Now another review on a potential HBP. He offers and back forearm was moving forward and maybe gets a nick (no overturn) 2-2 count to Keegan. And then he doubles to LF off the wall, dang it! Single to the left side now 2 on no outs. And then another frickin’ HR deep to RF. 4-1 Vandy. Brite losing accuracy a bit, not getting up like earlier, or they are swinging). Another single, to RF this time. 5-4-almost 3 for the first out. Brute at 60+ pitches now. And now a walk to the 9 hole (cannot do that in games like these!!!). Now a pitching change to Carson Swilling in the 4th, down 4-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
