2 on 1 out

I choose.....

 

[Jackcrevol]

Yes it is. Two little league errors. Errors that shouldn’t happen at the college level.

Moore has one job on 2 outs get the easy out which is the lead runner.

we're playing the number one team in baseball. we'll be ok

True but that’s a play that has to be made regardless of who you’re playing.

Ball game

5-2 not the VOLS

Moore and Halverson lost this game

Yup

 

[BigSteve09]

Depressing how that 8th inning went. Should have been routine 1-2-3 and they lost focus just long enough to suffer. Hopefully it's a learning experience.

Yeah what was the excuse against Missouri when we couldn’t even run the bases properly?

 

[Hardy]

Good news is that we kept it close against the #1 team. Bad news is we messed it up in a crappy way.

I don’t get the negativity though. This was a dormant program for years. We are competing at an elite level, and we have to rebuild every year.

 

[jakez4ut]

Good game. At least they made it interesting right there. One bad play. LSU, you're welcome.

 

[BigSteve09]

Ole Miss was getting swept at home and treated like jackasses all season long and ended up winning it all last year. Gotta let the boys play ball.

 

[jakez4ut]

Hey this time last year who had ole miss winning it all? They were damn near bad... Till they weren't.

The negativity is because what we are losing from is stuff you shouldn’t lose from at the college level. The stuff we lost from has nothing to do with “rebuilding” it’s all stuff that should be natural for a D1 baseball player.

Base running is something you should already know when you get to college. Catching an underhanded ball thrown to first is easy or throwing to first with two outs instead of trying to make a tag. Those are all things that don’t require “rebuilding.” You are literally always taught on 2 outs to get the lead runner or the easiest bag. You are never taught to make a tag because so many things can happen on a tag.

Those little things are frustrating and embarrassing if you want to be a “good” team you can’t make those mistakes. It’s fundamental baseball.

Ignore button works real well Doc. He has been on my list for a good while. Another one of them that only comes to share their wisdom after a loss. Never heard from when any UT team wins.

I meant to and then forgot after my post

I’m sure there will be another opportunity soon…

Let someone else carry the water for a change while we hide in the tall grass and get better.

And LSU did the same thing and put a 3 run lead in jeopardy... It happens...
