Cowboys at Wildcats

[KK10]

Good God...
Just a damn routine throw from Center to hold a runner and we botch it

 

[KK10]

Young or not, Ortiz has to be better

IDK why he rushed it. He had another few seconds to still comfortably get him at 1st

 

[KK10]

Disservice to Davis; he was fighting pretty well and got let down

 

[Poke]

Ortiz not interested in defense?

 

[Cowboy4life9688]

Gabe Davis was actually doing his job in the 4th and you hate to single out a freshman but Ortiz did him no favors. Should’ve been two outs with no runners

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Phillips in...

 

[Poke Skywalker]

Ha! Rob spent the mound visit/pitching change lecturing Ortiz. Good for him.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

And that run comes in on RBI single. Just gifting them runs today

 

[Cowboy4life9688]

Charge that run to Ortiz

Josh Holliday
Winning Percentage 65.00%
428-230-2
NCAA Post-Season 23-21. 52.27%

Travis Ford
Winning Percentage 61.11%
143-91 first 7 seasons
NCAA Round of 64 - 4 times
NCAA Round of 32 - 1 time
NIT 2nd Round - 1 time
*(not counting his last season)

OK, he’s not quite Travis Ford. However, he’s been given the keys to a Lamborghini and his winning percentage isn’t significantly better and his worst years have been his most recent years. It’s been 5 years since we made a Super Regional and the only other Super Regional was 2014 and then the World Series year in 2016. Six times we haven’t made it out of a regional, some of which we hosted! It’s been 8 years since we really sniffed Omaha. BTW, Frank Anderson had a 61.27% winning percentage at OSU!

Hardly the standard set by Gary Ward at 953-313-1, a 75.28% winning percentage! All I am saying is his long can Josh keep on not making it out of regionals until there’s any kind of heat on him? Seems like we’ve become satisfied with being decent but never elite.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

this lefty is shutting us down again

 

[Poke]

First time watching this weekend. Man this team is frustrating to watch right now. Very little fire.

 

[JRod]

We’ve gone from 0-2 to 3-2 an insane amount of times today.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Nice inning from O'Toole

6-4 after 5

 

[Cowboy4life9688]

I agree the postseason is lacking, and the criticism from that aspect is deserved but the ford comparison is big reach. At least holiday has won regular season conference and tournament championships.

Does Josh deserve some heat, sure but I don’t get the Travis Ford vibes, at least not yet!

 

[JRod]

Announcers talking about the sun wreaking havoc on almost every fly ball to KSUs outfield, yet our team seems to have zero issues catching them.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

8 in a row now retired by the soft tossing lefty.

Considering that is our biggest weakness for the __th year in a row, we've done nothing to adjust to the problem.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Another 0 from O'Toole

 

[JRod]

Correct me if I’m wrong but I thought “retiring the side” meant that you retired ALL batters you face in an inning. These announcers all weekend have been using it like “got three outs without giving up any runs (even though there are base runners)”

It just means getting 3 outs
