Yep. But I love the game, if ya take our BaseVols out of the equation it can happen to anybody at any time, total chaos, and I respect that always.

Funny how this works. For 16 innings you look dominate and don’t give up a run heading into a 2-0 start, with some already penciling you into the finals. Suddenly 11 innings later you’ve given up 12 runs and two losses - out of the tournament.

Let’s not get too crazy, Rose would be considered a great player in any era. He had ten 200-hit seasons and about 5 other seasons just shy of 200 hits. Guaranteed any MLB team will take that type of production.

Base-running is atrocious. It’s like they don’t even teach it to the kids growing up anymore. It makes me want to pull my hair out sometimes.

'Sorry you had to see that': How baserunning has become an embarrassment in MLB

Yeah, Rose was a great player, period. But you don't see his type - Tony Gwynn singles hitters and high on base percentage guys - in the game anymore. Or am I just not paying attention?

I think they still value high on base percentage but they don’t care about singles nearly as much as they should. It’s all about slugging % HRs because those ultimately lead to more runs scored. Ideally you would want guys that can hit for power and average, like Chipper Jones, but those guys are once in a generation type players.

NC St. really needs to win this game.

 

[TN_gal]

There’s a developing situation with NC State. COVID related.
