re: LSU 9 @ Tulane 10 Final

The only thought here is that Tulane may squeeze and loading the bases puts pressure on both the squeeze and safety squeeze since it would be a force at home. Unsure about pulling Fontenot with a 1-2 count.
Was Beck's first pitch a fast ball or curve ball when he came in? May have been afraid of throwing a curveball in the dirt.
Whatever let's go beat USCe

Shut up, gutless wonder.

You only post when we're trailing or struggling. Then you disappear when we're winning.

Your knowledge of baseball strategy is 100% based on hindsight. You've never made a baseball decision in your life.

We trailed most of the game. Keep walking bases loaded. What makes you think Beck comes in and throws strikes after he was asked to put runners on?

Well thanks your thinking just made us lose. You just can't admit PM makes mistakes.

In hindsight, it was a mistake. And that's all you know about baseball....hindsight.

When the batter bunted the runner to third with the sac bunt, I knew we were going to walk the bases loaded and draw in the outfield to short fielders. That's the best odds of winning in that situation.

A force out at any base and the possibility to get a double play.

If there's a fly ball to short outfield the out fielder has a chance of throwing the runner on third out at the plate.

As it was, Mainieri pulled Zach Watson to just behind second base so if a ground ball went up the middle there was a chance for a 8-6-3 double play.

It was the correct strategy that didn't work because a usual strike throwing pitcher couldn't throw a strike when he needed to.

No, GFY, coward.
