OSU at KSU

Yea I get the impact zone and what you say makes sense. To me that still doesn't excuse chasing sliders in the dirt. But either way I'm tired of all of it

Requires more “guessing early” on pitches, hence winding up chasing more sliders and breaking balls that wind up In the dirt.

Wentworth up with 2 on and 2 out, and he rips an RBI single to LF

 

[Cowboy4life9688]

Wentworth= law of probability

 

[Poke Skywalker]

Well TP avoided 7Ks, so that’s good

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Need one more at least, didn't get it

Someone mentioned a week or two ago that GW on the radio was commenting how Meola was just out there guessing.

That was me, he's mentioned that about several hitters

 

[Chairman of the Board]

Just as we expected, Burns and Jennings shut it down and the Pokes escape with a win

 

[Cowboy4life9688]

Jennings and burns the only ones who pitched with courage this weekend. Pesca to a degree as well

 

[Poke Skywalker]

Avoided being swept. Not a good weekend but at least salvaged a win

 

[Cowboy4life9688]

TP tied an ncaa record for most strikeouts in a game

 

[David Lee Roth]

Haha how bad is kstate?

What an accomplishment! That’s the kind of publicity Josh needs.

I’d much rather see the young arms, (Kennedy, Burns, Jennings) get the ball first over Blake and Phillips. They’re going to fail some, and have bad outings, but we know what we’re going to get with those Sr’s. We’ve seen it over and over for 4 years.

I’d like to see Josh try Stormy on Friday nights and move Lund back to Sunday. Lund has really struggled since being the guy on Friday, but was thriving being the day 3 guy.

I’ve came to the conclusion they’re not going to punt Blake and Phillips. Since the season is a struggle, I agree let the young pitchers get more reps. Thank goodness those two graduate this season. I agree with Lund..he’s been okay on Friday nights but his last couple starts have been atrocious

At least he avoided having the record all by himself

 

[PokeBloke]

Because other competent coaches that have a guy K 5 or 6 times usually pull him. Not our head honcho.

Records are meant to be broken

 

[Chairman of the Board]

any word on why Thompson left the game?
