I played college baseball and I can tell you that no matter if we drew a walk or knew we would be out on a routine play to first, we always hustled and ran hard to first.

KR is the worst one on the team about doing this. If my college coach was coaching LSU, he would be on the bench. I've seen numerous at bats where he didn't give much effort running to first. Anything can happen and that lack of effort could cost you a chance to get on base.

That strike out play was a prime example.

No excuses to display effort like that.

You're mad about the strike out? He's one of the few that actually run at all and at least force the throw. But I'm sure you complain about those too right?

How many times did your college team play in the college world series?

I coach 7/8 girls softball and this is one of the biggest things I impress upon them.

You always hustle down the line and you ALWAYS run THROUGH first base. I teach them simply: If you stop at first, you have to slow down in order to stop on the base. That slowing down is often the difference between out and safe.

Robertson is a major disappointment in the cws so far. He has done nothing but make errors and get out at the plate. He dyed his damn hair because he's such an attention whore and hasn't done anything in the cws to get any attention. I'm not so sure I won't be glad when Kramer is gone with all the attention he and his mom get and take away from the team. Idk, I could be overreacting but he needs to make a damn play for his team instead of worrying about his frickin queer hairstyles and coloring. Frickin douche.
