re: Let just for fun say LIU wins vs UNC

Posted by Alt26 on 5/31/24 at 6:14 pm
LSU didn’t exactly do anything from the plate today…until they did. It’s early in the game. I wouldn’t draw any definitive conclusions just yet ...
[quote]He was bad both halves of each inning, but directionally it always fricked LSU.[/quote] I think it fricked LSU because Wofford made it a point to keep pounding the area. I can't blame them. The same pitch in the same location would be called a strike, ball, strike, multiple times in the sa...

re: Bullpen still fully intact as well

Posted by Alt26 on 5/31/24 at 1:57 pm
Yeah, but now LSU doesn't have Holman/Jump available for a potential game 3 vs. UNC!!! That means they have no chance to win!!! The "start the bullpen advocates" just (wrongly) assumed LSU was going to score at will even if Mike the Tiger was pitching. I don't care what is the front of the jerse...
[quote]I can't find it, but in one of the threads, someone said early in the game snarkily "Well, I guess Milam is due for another solo HR". How ya feeling now, big boy???[/quote] It sounds like he was bitching about the other guys not getting on base to help maximize Milam's great play (which...

re: Milam saves Bing and White

He and Jones were the only guys all game with consistently good ABs. No wonder it's those two that (essentially) won the game. The top of the order (except for one AB by Braswell) was swinging like they had dinner reservations to get to. The bottom of the order is just hoping someone hits them....

It was a matter of time for Jones. He's the only guy who has had great ABs all game...

re: Stony Brook 2.0

Posted by Alt26 on 5/31/24 at 1:07 pm
NOT.AT.ALL. That LSU team that Stony Brook beat was really good. SEC Champs. But for a few days of playing over their head last week this LSU team may not have even made this tournament...

[quote]Well this is over[/quote] I get the frustration. But expecting LSU to be able to score 3-4 runs against Wofford's second-line pitching is a LOT to ask. Sometimes it just be like that...

It's kind of incredible a guy like Milazzo can play 5 years of college baseball and still look overmatched by almost every pitcher he faces. ...

re: This looks too similar to Stoney Brook

Posted by Alt26 on 5/31/24 at 12:47 pm
That LSU team was MUCH better than this LSU team. The performance in Hoover made everyone think/hope this was the top 5 team finally coming around. The reality seems to be it was just a slightly above average team playing over their heads....

re: Wofford 3 @ LSU 4 Final

Posted by Alt26 on 5/31/24 at 12:45 pm
It doesn't help when the same pitch in the same location switches from a ball to a strike seemingly a random. The strike zone has the LSU hitters completely twisted. Credit Wofford though. They are taking advantage by hitting the same spot over and over again....

Who had Jared Jones being the only hitter able to put together quality at bats on your bingo card?...

re: Ban the shift!!

Posted by Alt26 on 5/31/24 at 12:19 pm
[quote]How about hit to where they vacated[/quote] Exactly! The defense is giving you a massive open space to hit the ball through. It's not their problem if you, the hitter, can't take advantage of it....

[quote]Maybe somebodies shot their wads in Hoover...just sayin'[/quote] Maybe LSU is just regressing back to the mean and they really aren't that great of a team. Just a slightly above average team. The 5 games they played in Hoover were outliers compared to the 56 games played before....

re: There is no quit in this team!

Posted by Alt26 on 5/31/24 at 12:01 pm
It's the 4th inning. So plenty of time. But LSU is not seeing the pitches well and hasn't seem to adjusted yet. They look either unprepared or started with an overconfidence that has been shoved up their arse for the moment...
Well, it helps when LSU comes out and starts swinging at every first pitch they can. Unexpected starter. Young guy. Big stage. Early nerves..,..let's make it easy on him :dope: ...
