And then these two… I don’t think you can call them sentences…


quote:

After a much-needed win 4-3 in Game 2, the Tigers look to continue the fire in the bats and the pitching right on the sweet spot Saturday at 5 pm. The Tigers will successfully walk away with a series sweep to regain much-needed confidence in the last game.



This is sad.

When you boil everything down to it’s essence, that’s really what it’s all about.

It’s like she asked ChatGPT to write about a two game sweep then ran it back and forth through an English to Chinese translator

AI will nip that degree first

My thoughts exactly. AI CHAT GPT. It’s what you need to do for reporting, journalism these days. It’s so obvious when reading an article. Bad, really bad!

This is at least 50% DEI in the journalism department, has to be right?

Read it a second time and take my original comment back, the article isn’t embarrassing, the author may actually just be retarded.

I don't want to be too harsh because this is a college student, but what the hell? This reads as if it was one of those Ai articles written in a different language and translated to english.

I went through some of her tweets and I think the poor girl is just not familiar with baseball at all. Or maybe english just isn't her first language?

quote:

B2: Jared Jones singles to left center, sending Stanfield home. Now with two runners in scoring corner bases.

Score:
#LSU - 4
MCN- 0

2 runners on corner bases?
quote:

B2: LSU challenges the call of Curiel out at first, and it is overturned. Curiel carries on his on base streak for every game appearance.
"carries on his on base streak for every game appearance"
quote:

Top of the first is over and the Cowboys no runs with only two hits. William Schmidt will be on the mound tonight.
no runs on "only" two hits? Announcing Schmidt as the pitcher after the inning is over?
quote:

B1: Ethan Frey singles down the middle, sending Dickinson and Milam back to the dugout.

Score:
#LSU - 4
MSST - 0
Sending guys back to the dugout is an odd way to say they scored
quote:

T1: First pitch by Chase Shores has been thrown and we are finally off in the third game.
This just isn't how a baseball reporter tweets about a game starting
quote:

B5: Daniel Dickinson hits a 3-run home run, bringing the score a whole lot closer.

Giving the Tigers a fighting chance to clutch a win tonight

Score:
#LSU - 5
MSST - 6
Why not "Daniel Dickinson 3 run HR. One run ballgame in Baton Rouge"
quote:

B3: Dereck Curiel hits a single homer, making that his third of the year.

Score:
#LSU - 2
MS State - 4
What is a single homer?
quote:

B5: LSU challenged the call that Stanfield wasn't hit by the pitch and got it overturned.

Bases are still loaded, and one more run will put the mercy rule into effect for tonight.

Score:
#LSU - 13
ULL - 4
5th inning mercy rule?
quote:

B1: Curiel loads the bases, and the Tigers have gone through the lineup once already in one inning
quote:

T5: Jacob Mayers is on the mound now instead of Jaden Noot
I really could have posted every single tweet but this is a good summary. English cannot be this persons first language.

Have to throw this in there from the end of the Omaha game.

The Rant is certainly not the place one would expect to find a critique of journalistic skills. Scores of posters on this board should have never passed high school English, if in fact they did.

That's not the point. Ranters are not journalists.

For many, mere literacy is perhaps an overly optimistic goal.
