SaltyTiger 8,837 Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 (edited) Did not realize we had already started. 4:00 start with us up 1-0 in T4. Bases loaded with 1 out. Green at bat. Sac fly right makes it 2-0 Hall at bat and strike out ends T 4 Edited March 19, 2023 by SaltyTiger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaltyTiger 8,837 Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 Tommy Vail on the mound. Walks first up. 42 pitches and allowed 1 hit so far Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaltyTiger 8,837 Posted March 18, 2023 Author Share Posted March 18, 2023 WDE anyway. Ends 7-2. Sure Butch will point to “freebies”. Walk 4 in B 4 and all 4 score. Tomorrow is another day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaltyTiger 8,837 Posted March 19, 2023 Author Share Posted March 19, 2023 Dropped game 9-3. Frustration again. Not disappointed in the pitching. We will see. First SEC series and a road trip. 38 degrees in Fayetteville today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Injured guys back in the lineup and the players settling in and learning to play together. That could be wrong, but that's what I expect. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPTiger 5,690 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 I was there. Arky is a tough place to play. They announced the 3 game attendance as 27,000 plus. It was an odd series, at least twice we hit guys on an 0-2 pitch and the HBP came around to score in the inning. We had some pitchers throw some really good quality innings (Will Cannon today 4 scoreless and 1 hit) and some that didn't. We started 3 true freshman today.... We really miss Bobby Pierce's bat and leadership. The line up will be better once he gets well. We need Gonzo to trust the doctors and the staff and get back on the bump. If all of you could go see Arky's facilities, you would realize why they have been to the postseason 19 of the past 20 years. If you love baseball, strike that, if you like baseball give to TUF or NIL or join the 108 Club. Right now, we have fallen way too far behind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gowebb11 10,276 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Positives: our hitters consistently demonstrate good plate discipline. Swinging at bad pitches seems to have improved a lot. Irish is a stud and future star. Stanfield and G Miller very solid freshman. Larue has a laser cannon behind the plate. Crotchfeld is a very solid freshman starter and has the potential to be a strong ace in the future. Cannon looks solid as well. Gonzalez is great when healthy Negatives: Not getting lead off hitters on. Larue has 4 hits in 20 games. Need Pierce and McMurray back. Our pitchers throw flat fastballs and few of them have the confidence to get ahead of hitters. We rarely have any of them last more than 3-4 innings. Butch has a history of rallying and improving teams as the season goes on and getting injured players back is a must. We really need to take at least 2 of 3 vs UGA this weekend.

SaltyTiger 8,837 Posted March 20, 2023 Author Share Posted March 20, 2023 Think I am correct in this being the 1st 3 in a row loss since 2020. No consolation but several SEC team were swept in a crazy weekend. Including the UGA team coming here Thursday. Thing you like to see is win all home series and at least pick up 1 out of 3 on the road. Pretty sure we have South AL Tuesday night. Want to say that game is in Montgomery. Not nearly time to get down about this team. WDE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
