re: Manieri owes an apology to Hilliard and the team!

Coleman had a great game in the Oregon regional. But to pull Hilliard, while still in rhythm and showing no sign of fatigue is one of reasons why everyone wanted PM gone in the first place. That poor decision started a Tenn. rally which changed the complexion of the game. While we can't say that our batting would have stepped up in the absence of that momentum shift, but it was the reason we fell behind and never recovered. The top of our batting order was a disappointment and we have holes in our lineup due to lax recruiting, but this game appeared to be ours before PM's poorly planned pitching change...
