ORU @OSU

[Chairman of the Board]

B7
Ritchie HBP, ball hit off his helmet and went up into the suites
--to 2nd on passed ball
Meola reaches on error on throw at 3B, ball goes into dead zone, run scores, Meola to 2nd
Bruegge lines out to wall. Wasted out. Runner can't move
Wentworth pops out to RF
--new pitcher
PH Pomeroy grounds out to 3B

6-6


We might be doing a lot of things better at the plate, but the execution with a runner at 2nd and nobody out still sucks

 

[SanditeCowboy]

Literally gave OSU a run there. Take the lead now Cowboys!

Brennan Phillips = BP = Batting Practice

 

[Edmondcowboy]

Why would they leave Phillips in, in a tie game.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Doesn't look like we're trying to win this game. Just hoping we can outscore them.

Brennan Phillips = BP = Batting Practice

Earlier TH said "he has no velocity, no movement, and his pitches miss their locations"

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Why would they leave Phillips in, in a tie game.

And why should we tune in, listen, or even go if they are going to pull that crap in the 8th inning? Why even use Rhodes at all if you're just going to blow it with Phillips?

 

[Poke Skywalker]

Unfortunately we are going to see Phillips until he is out of eligibility, and that can’t come soon enough. I’ve said forever that he’s ok for one out situations, but bringing him out for any more is just asking for it. Dave’s even apparently caught onto that and mentioned it at the start of the inning.

They spent the entire time talking about how he used to be just kinda OK.

 

[SanditeCowboy]

Just a poor inning for pitching there. Tie up the game and then immediately give up the lead. That poor bastard that swung at the pitch that hit him is gonna feel that one.

 

[Cowboy4life9688]

Brennan giveth, Brennan taketh!!

 

[Chairman of the Board]

B8
Shull flies out to CF
Francisco walks on full count
Conover singles to CF, runner to 3rd
Thompson walks, bases FOC
Ritchie sac fly to CF, Conover to 3B
--wild pitch scores a run
Meola K's swinging

Good thing they gave us that run because you knew Meola's fate before he even came up

8-8

 

[SanditeCowboy]

Wow the wall was kind!

 

[JRod]

May be time to lift Meola. Just horrible at the plate 6 out of his last 41!!!

When you repeadetly chase sliders down and away it's hard to make contact. Two of those six were him completely getting fooled but somehow poking that slider for a hit.

 

[Chairman of the Board]

T9 Wech takes over

Groundout to 3B
Double to LCF, RItchie had it in his glove on the run but couldn't hold on
Walk on 4 pitches
Strikeout swinging
Double off LCF wall, 2 RBI.
--Blake in
Walk on full count
Strikeout swinging

Last call for the Cowboys down 10-8

 

[ostate77]

Just swings wildly at a pitch out of the zone once again. No business whatsoever in the 4 hole.

Or 5 or 6 or 7.

 

[JRod]

Welp

 

[SanditeCowboy]

Bring in your weekend closer to give up two runs. Pitching is just brutal tonight.

 

[JRod]

Awesome so we threw Wech and injured him
