I always get a chuckle when the cool breeze with the flowing locks and KISS eye/face black comes flying in on a ball smoked right at him and flags at it as goes screaming over his head, rolls all the way to the fence and turns an out into a triple. Which winds up tying the game in the bottom of the ninth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AU64 10,122 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Pitcher's dream.....getting to bat in an SEC game ?.....well maybe not...but now that LSU has the lead at 4-3 they are going to let the pitcher get an AB in order to keep him in the game for the bottom of the 12th.

I didn't feel like typing his name again since we were already talking about him so I used his initials. Also I never use A&M to refer to the Aggies unless it's a thread title. I always use aTm when I'm talking about them. Yes you said Sunday but you also said the next start after AM which could be Saturday if we lose today. Well, to me your AM was Texas A & M. I can type "Mitchell", very easily, as I did the last time I mentioned him up-thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saw a post game video on Twitter where he told the coach he lied about hitting in high school. Said he never did. He told him, "Coach, I just wanted to swing." He's my new favorite player too haha.

AU64 10,122 Posted May 25, 2018 Share Posted May 25, 2018 Comments on Mize: I know much is made about Mize calling his own pitches but I have to wonder if that works best for the team. We have two of the best pitching coaches around and are gonna let a couple of 20 year olds make critical decisions about what pitch to throw and when to throw it? Smith and Butch have forgotten more about pitching strategy than CM and Wright have combined and in my view, lots of that knowledge is going to waste during an actual ballgame. Coaches have a better idea of what is "working" at any given time than either the pitcher or catcher. Mize reportedly has four pitches that he can get over the plate but he seems to start showing all of them right away and by the time the opposition has batted around for the first time, he has shown them all and everyone can see what pitches are most effective. By the time the opponents make it through the line-up even once, CM has nothing new to show a batter in a key moment and likely tendencies have been detected by the opposing coaches. JMO but this is why he has had problems making it through the line-up even twice in recent games. From what I hear and read, most MLB pitchers try not to show all of their pitches early.....wanting something new to put to a batter the second and third time around...and I'm wondering if CM or Wright even remember what they threw to a batter the first time up and how the batter dealt with it. Maybe I miss it since TV does not cover everything but there seems to be no feedback after and inning between pitcher and catcher and coaches and little discussion when a batter comes around for the second or third time. Someone earlier talked about deception being a key to pitching, but if a batter is seeing the same pitches his second time at bat as he did the first time, there is much less deception.
