re: Cal 3 @ LSU 4 Final - SECN+ / 98.1

I don't think it's Paul being hard headed. Hess could have gone pro last year. He's obviously a good talent. Mainieri probably promised him he'd give him another shot at being a starter if he came back. I don't know the specifics of how many chances he gets, or how much rope he'll be given, but it's the most logical and likely explanation. I'd think he probably wants him to stay in that role and has built the rotation around that. Overall Hess really hasn't been bad, but he hasn't pitched like a Friday night guy. Maybe moving to a different night might do him well, but at this point I'm not certain who would be better on Fridays

Solid whack

Hess has only given up 1 run.

Sure the pitch count is high but the melts are

Lots of anger on the rant tonight. Drink up and enjoy the game.

I’m very happy he’s only given up one. I’d like him to get more outs quicker, but if he goes 6-7 innings with 1-3 runs you’d have to like the improvement from his first few starts this year.

I want him to be an absolute stud, but man he was literally untouchable as a closer. I wish he was ok being the best closer in the country

Cabrera up, 2 outs

strike, 0-1
foul, 0-2
low, 1-2
swing and a miss, K

Cop light melt. That's a new one.

Top of the lineup with some absolutely god awful at bats so far

Pitch count through 4

Hess 68

4 K’s

Sabouri 42

Just to update the I can’t watch this shite group. I’m pretty sure espn cancelled the watch espn app and now is just using the espn app for streaming. The watch espn app is no longer in the apple store and espn app is able to stream the games.
