VMI Saturday Game Thread

[pseudonym]

Watching basketball but tracking this game. How did the guy on first not score on a home run?

 

[Ranchdawg]

Who’s idea was it to make him a catcher?

He played catcher last season too. In relief of Logan Tanner.

I see the estrogen pumpers are out in full force tonight. If you were near, I'd hand ya a Tiger Woods Tampon to soothe you.

Because he did not homer.

 

[Trojanbulldog19]

Whose kid is talking right next to the mic

 

[Cantdoitsal]

Atta Boy Luke.

Because he did not homer.

Makes sense.

 

[dog99walker]

Jans tells his players, if you don’t play defense, you don’t play for me.

Lemonis should say, throw strikes or sit.

That’s a lot different than being your starting catcher.

 

[AstroDog]

This is a very very bad VMI team. They haven't been good in years. They do have a new coach, so not sure if they are improved this year, but they shouldn't even be close to us.

 

[pcdog2017]

Wonder if Foxhall has ever thought to ask a struggling pitcher to pitch to contact

 

[8dog]

That’s a lot different than being your starting catcher.

He came here as a catcher.

But the early reviews against a team that is one of the worst we will play are not good. The scrimmages have basically been spot on. Something is not right

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

What's the record for walks in one game?

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

So… we’re not back?

 

[stateu1]

Is 13 runs on 5 hits possible in baseball with older than 10 year olds playing?

 

[WilCoDawg]

How long until football season?**

 

[PearlRiverCoDawg]

This looks like a carbon copy of last year’s team. This is unbelievable.

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

I really hope this is just one of those games you have a baseball every once in a while especially the first of the season. But I am really worried our pitching has not gotten any better.

It's early but how many 17ing pitchers did we have try and BOMB. Our fielding is atrocious too.

 

[She Mate Me]

It is un-17ing-believable to me that we're going to have to suffer through a season with even worse pitching than we had last year.

UN-17ING-BELIEVABLE

 

[Yeti]

The good news is the games should be short as we will get run ruled often

 

[Trojanbulldog19]

Well looks like coaches were right. Our pitching staff is not good enough to win much in sec play. Looks like foxhall might be gone at the end of year or lemonis whkk be. This pitching is as bad as it was last year

 

[Podgy]

It's early, maybe too soon for this, but why is this staff so mediocre at recruiting pitching the past three years? Or do the outstanding pitchers just want to go elsewhere

 

[theoriginalSALTYdog]

It is un-17ing-believable to me that we're going to have to suffer through a season with even worse pitching than we had last year.

UN-17ING-BELIEVABLE

Agreed and one or MORE coaches should have their heads on the line..........No more of this "it's not his recruits BS"..........

 

[IBleedMaroonDawg]

14 hits to 5 and we trail 13-12?

See if you guys can pull this one out I'm out of here.

 

[Fang1]

This looks like a carbon copy of last year’s team. This is unbelievable.

Bullpen looks worse, if that’s possible.

 

[goodknight]

ISO Bullpen. Pitiful display by our pitching staff today. When you give up twice as many runs as hits you’re in big troubl!

 

[8dog]

It's early, maybe too soon for this, but why is this staff so mediocre at recruiting pitching the past three years? Or do the outstanding pitchers just want to go elsewhere

I’m not sure the recruiting is the problem.

 

[theoriginalSALTYdog]

Yeah, uh nope...

How the hell do you win a national championship, have the best facilities in college baseball and be in this situation regarding starting pitching two years on???

Well, you can't blame it on Lemo, it's not his recruits****

 

[UpTheMiddlex3Punt]

 

[Fang1]

What the crap kinda slide was that by Kellum?

 

[Seinfeld]

It's early, maybe too soon for this, but why is this staff so mediocre at recruiting pitching the past three years? Or do the outstanding pitchers just want to go elsewhere

I think you’re being extremely kind to call this staff mediocre. It might hold its own in CUSA, but year 2 of this Foxhall shitshow is bottom of the barrel in the SEC

 

[Puppers]

With our resources and the transfer portal in is UNACCEPTABLE to play like this two years in a row. If our staff can't find or develop guys who can throw strikes then we need to move on.

A game like this on a random Tuesday once in a blue moon is one thing. We have made a habit out of it and it's a 17ing joke.

 

[Ranchdawg]

6 errors in 2 games. Back to back doubles.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Regardless, the snowman uniforms gotta go.

 

[AstroDog]

Well, we just lost to our first "SWAC level" team of the year.

 

[Podgy]

To be fair, we had only a 9-run lead and scored only 13 runs and we were at home.**

 

[Ranchdawg]

Gonna b a long, long season.

 

[FlotownDawg]

To be fair, we had only a 9-run lead and scored only 13 runs and we were at home.**

The big crowd made the boys nervous.***

 

[Anon1669338224]

That's goddamn pitiful

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

I'll watch what tomorrow brings, but, looking more and more like we are going to get chewed up.
