Hawaii Bullpen Out of Control
Posted on 3/10/18 at 8:38 pm

Their pitcher just threw a high 80’s mph ball straight into the crowd. Went over the catcher’s head. Barely scrapes a fans hat. The guy that got scraped yells “do your f****** job” at the bullpen pitchers. Security came and told him to simmer down. Quite the event that unfolded.
Edit: My head was swiveled watching home plate as I saw the ball fly into the upper grandstand seats. His son got hit in the shoulder my mistake. Anyone who saw it would say his actions were justified in yelling at the terrible pitching. No one should fear getting hit by a ball that is controllable by a pitcher in a bullpen. A foul ball is the exception.

I'd blame LSU for going cheap and putting the bullpens in play.

I saw Lange and someone else, forgot, tag people on section 101 when long tossing before games. Luckily they were big guys and could take the hit

I’m surprised this doesn’t happen more often. I’ve always felt a little gun shy sitting down there while a guy is in the bullpen.

Eddie Nunez oversaw construction of the new box right? There’s your answer
It could’ve, and can be, so much better. They put too much focus on the club and suites and cut corners everywhere else and it’s starting to show not even 10 years later.
Remember that awful batters eye we had to start with? And even the one today isn’t that great.

My biggest beef with Alex Box isn’t necessarily the stadium itself, but the advertising behind home plate. It is extremely tacky, busy and unnecessary. Look around the SEC and major college baseball and you not see it nearly as bad as LSU.

It's ok, Joe Alleva is the best AD, he got us the new box and the expansion of death valley. Praise he who has taken LSU to the next level.

The ball hit my son squarely in the shoulder. There was no barely scrapping the hat about it. The pathetic security guard and the jerk fans did not even ask if he was ok. Several were extremely concerned about the "bad language". None concerned about my son being hit with the ball. No one on the Hawaii team apologized. The security guard did not ask us what happened he simply threatened us with ejection due to bad language. All around awful experience fans, LSU security and Hawaii team all at expectation...jerks. After I confronted the security guard he said oh I did not know... I said you could have asked what happened instead of immediately threatening to eject us. They did finally send a cop down to check on us. The policemen was very nice.

I know im a little late, but I saw the whole thing transpire. Definitely was a just reaction considering the speed of that ball coming in.
