The only one that likely would not have been caught today was Tucker's, which would have been a double at the Dude....and that was a mistake to even pitch to him in their ball park in that situation. O'Sullivan "asked" us to walk him by bunting Zunino....and we still chose to throw 86 mph fast balls to the guy. And yes, I agree that Norris was a mistake choice to pitch, especially since it had been a while since he saw any significant action. Probably thought he would give them a different look or something but that back fired.

They are Fly ball hitters who hit 366 foot homeruns. They will be 2 and out again at TD Ameritrade if they rely on the long ball. Yes, it works out for them in THAT ball park. The difference in those 2 teams was clear, but as far as their "power" it is ball park induced. Unfortunately, except for Vickerson, our guys can only hit a pop fly 266 feet.

None-the-less.....very good season for the Dawg Baseball team. Those players played hard considering the talent deficiency compared to the Top 3 SEC teams.

38-25 is not too shabby.
