That's probably why we won the series, and are 6 outs away from a sweep.

Strikes outs can still be an issue while getting a sweep. It’s been an issue this weekend, just hope they work on not making this a recurring issue.

There’s a thing called human nature. We won the series already and we might be feeling a little frisky…who knows?

They have obviously worked on running the pitch counts up on pitchers and looking for BB's. They lead the league in BB's so with that they get a lot of 2 strike counts which put you in a protect the plate situation.

We could go back to first pitch swinging, short half inning for opposing pitchers, quick ground outs and pop ups and then watch opposing pitchers go 8 innings against us again...

Everything is a balance in baseball. You take one thing you yield another. So far the K's have not been a big issue.

You realize the #5 team in the country just got swept by a bottom feeder SEC team?

It happens

It would be less frustrating if we didn’t strike out a TON on balls that aren’t close to a strike.

They strike out a lot but have all year. They also hit for a lot of power and get on base a lot.

Welcome to modern baseball.

mostly on pitches out of the strike zone.
This entire team needs to learn how to identify spin on curve balls out of the zone.
