Yep. If they don't win tomorrow the wheels will get really loose.

I never even understood what the purpose was of having that rule

I have never seen a ball spin away from a catcher like that before.

So I. A game with nearly 300 pitches, you think one pitch in particular post the game? That’s a weird way to look at things.

watching it again, it was spiked more than i thought originally. The issue was he couldn't find it, otherwise he would have been able to throw him out rather routinely.

Pitching to Cags didn’t help either. Or walking the bases loaded. Or shifting then throwing high outside.

It wasn’t “dropped” and the score was still 4-3 after that. The runner that scored there got a double that basically went under Tommy and Brass. Tough play but Brass should have laid out and knocked it down to make it a single.

We didn’t lose the game bc of that lol

That was unfortunate but the reason LSU lost last night was getting blanked at the plate for the last 6 innings of the game.

I posted this a different thread…
This is just a stupid rule that I’ve never understood anyway. Just seems like a made up rule by little leaguers 100 years ago.
And to add, he didn’t drop it, it bounced several feet in front of him. So technically speaking if the pitcher rolled the ball all the way home and the batter swings you still have to throw him out at first. I just don’t get the need to for that rule.

Was that pitch ruled a wild pitch or a passed ball? In other words was the catcher at fault or the pitcher. I felt it was 100% not a dropped 3rd strike. Milazzo did about the best he could. He blocked the pitch and leaned slightly forward with the top of his body the way catchers are taught. He tried to keep it in front of the plate, but sometimes a ball that far out front has a mind of its own. It looked like a wild pitch and that was on Ack.

It's baseball, it happens. Tulane lost the series to UL that way in the bottom of the 9th
Posted on 3/24/24 at 11:22 am to evansky
Agreed Milazo costs us that game.
