Would like to have seen him take there regardless as much as Matthews was struggling. Make him keep throwing pitches.

And Kason gets a hit!!!! Nate ends the inning on the first pitch with a dude dying out there. THAT is when we should've been taking the first pitch regardless.

BOOM. Cole Foster off the wall!!!! Gotta tip the cap to Butch for flipping Cole and Brody. Both guys have responded.

Horrible at bat there. Swinging at balls and missing the straight stuff in the middle of the plate.

Aaaaaaaand takes one in the ear hole. One out. Bases loaded.

Sonny missed a meatball.

Damn. That was a killer pitch on the 1-0.

C'mon Brody, keep it going!!

Boom. Rambo with a HIT!

Third straight inning with a leadoff guy on. Rambo up.

I'll say it again. We won't put anything together until Rambo or Kason start contributing. They are both so far beyond lost at the plate right now that they're just back breaking. If either starts to hit (or even just to get routine bunt plays down), we might find something. Other guys are seeing the ball better.

Trace keeping us in the game.

They aren't, but they sure are playing like a bad team.

Looking like another "glad to be here" trip to Omaha for two games.

If we sent Howell there, that's awful coaching. If he went on his own, he should take a seat the rest of the game.

We're done. That was pathetic.

They're wasting time to pull him.

Okay now! Drew our first walk of the CWS. Let's go Kason!

Let's go now!!! Give us a good AB Kason! Edit: forgot about Cole! My bad.

Another great inning from Bright. Strikes out one more. He's giving us everything we hoped. Time for the offense to wake up.

There is zero question Gonzalez is our #1. The debate isn't between those two. Butch went with Trace's experience over Mason's stuff, and so far, it looks like a good move. Trace is pitching well. That second RBI was a fluke. He's just suffering from lack of run support.

Damn it all. Bobby with the strike out and bone head interference. Lead-off single, Sonny strikes out, Bobby strikes out, and gets called for interference on Brody stealing second. End of inning. We're a complete mess on offense right now.

Brutal from Sonny. Brutal. He's pressing.

That a baby Brody!

Fair, but Farquhar doesn't play a ton of 3B.
