HOW ABOUT THE frickING THE TIGERS GOT FROM THE REPLAYS...THE GUY WAS CLEARLY OUT AT HOME; THE UMP CALLED HIM OUT AND THEN AND ONLY THEN DID THE BALL (WHICH WAS A DEAD BALL BY THEN) CAME OUT OF THE CATCHERS MITT


Stopped reading right here. It was absolutely the correct call as you have to possess the ball through the play Garza didn’t. Also, How is it a dead ball? Last time I checked a play at the plate isn't a dead ball unless it is 3 outs.
Garza lazy catcher play along with missing second base really hurt LSU bad this weekend. Between that, walks, and Base running LSU could have won both games.

Exactly! Make the next guy beat you and bring in Hilliard. Hilliards stuff is different than Fontenot’s. Change of pace. And really get the one out and go from there. If you score bring in Hess. If not, depending on how Hilliard is throwing, you could leave him in.

Even if he was the worst hitter on the team....

One run wins the game at that point. Putting him on first only helps LSU. walking him had no way of hurting us. It was a stupid decision all around.

Aren’t you supposed to think you can strike everybody out!! But, in that situation how about being a freaking coach and do what you need to do and walk the damn guy!

2 bases open. You walk both



Mother of God some of you are fricking clowns.

Yea put the winning run 90 feet from the plate when your catcher has had a hole in his glove all night...
