[Willow Grove Dawg]

It seems like the other team is cheating when a lefthander throws a breaking ball to Hines

Dakota got all of that pitch! How often do I tune in to a game to see our batter perform the same old swing and miss to end in the inning. I'm probably exaggerating, but I would like to see how many times we watch strike three go across the plate.

Props to the staff on holding them to 4 for 6 innings.

at least 4 times tonight thru 7 innings

Bryce Chance with a big steal. Need to get an RBI here.

 

[57stratdawg]

Whew. Pinch hitter thought he had a walk. Lemonis lost it on a pitch that looked down.

K’s next pitch. Still 5-4

What inning.

 

[skydawg1]

What inning.

B8

 

[Crazy Cotton]

Davis has some stuff

 

[bigbub50]

Do we see auger in 9th?

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

Davis was totally useless last year. He has been a different dude so far in 2024.

 

[Deltadawg1]

Powell is hitting 350 and you pinch hit with a guy batting below his weight. One of many head scratching decisions

 

[57stratdawg]

Auger in. 1 run game in the B9. Let’s see it.

 

[57stratdawg]

Auger really works fast on the mound.

 

[57stratdawg]

Good guys win. 5-4. 8 shut out from the staff. Nice play from Hines to win it too.

Good win.

Game 5 to 4

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

Outstanding job by the bullpen

 

[DoggieDaddy13]

Great baseball win against the best team we've played all year.

We don't suck!

 

[Dawgg]

The combination of the fog and the hi-8 cameras are (chef’s kiss).

 

[onewoof]

Biggest win of the season

 

[pseudonym]

Nice win. Outscored them 5-0 after the first inning.

 

[Xenomorph]

Really nice to see the team scrap and claw their way to an important win. No sarcasterisks.

 

[Perd Hapley]

Good guys win. 5-4. 8 shut out from the staff. Nice play from Hines to win it too.

Good win.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

I'll take it. I hope we keep stepping in the right direction.

 

[pseudonym]

Six straight wins after 3-4 start.

 

[57stratdawg]

Six straight wins after 3-4 start.

With Mershon and Kohler we’re like 8-1?

With Mershon and Kohler we’re like 8-1?

We’ve played 13 games, so that might be tough.

I sure hope they are turning things around but hell they beat USM last season. USM was a good team. State is going to have to prove to me they can win in the SEC. Sun Belt mid-week is one thing, but SEC weekend is another.

 

[HuntDawg]

Programs like USM generally are very top heavy. Their 7-8-9-10 pitcher just arent going to better than a power 5s 7-10.

Glad we won, but as i stated before the game, this is a mid week game. We have to show we can show up on a 3 day weekend and play consistant enough good baseball, to win a series.

Parker making a huge difference with our pitching staff. We shut out USM the final 8 innings to win the game last night 5-4 using multiple pitchers. NO WAY that would have happened last year. If our offense doesn't get going we will still struggle mightily in SEC play but our pitching staff under Parker actually is a bright spot so far.
