Worst pitching I ever saw. Poor Aldrete lives an adventurous life never knowing where the pitch will be. PATHETIC.

This was a very disappointing loss. What appeared half way thru the game to be a reasonable chance to sweep the Tigers has instead turned into a real chance the LV's will not win the series. The 6th inning pitching debacle was very discouraging. None of the LV pitchers could find the plate and when they did the Tigers hit the ball.

The word is out on the LV pitching. Teams are going to wait on the LV pitchers to prove they can throw strikes.

And it didn't help that there was a large contingent of Tiger fans in attendance and they were very boisterous.

Aucoin is her own worst enemy. If she walks another next inning they will pull her.

Aucoin got completely out of rhythm in the 4th inning and got a little lucky in the 5th with balls that were hit directly to LV's for outs. Then in the 6th the train completely derailed. Most of the lack of rhythm is the coaching staff's fault. Karen takes entirely too long to call the next pitch and then everybody fumbles around with their wrist band to see what that pitch is. Just step up and throw the @%&* ball.

I too was surprised she wasn't pulled earlier for Gaffin. Of all the LV pitchers Gaffin is the one who can find the plate upon entering a game. I suppose the staff was trying let Aucoin work thru it I don't know.

it was a lack of pitching armchair and some bad Defense at times too


I just looked at the roster and there are only 2 seniors on the team,13 freshmen and sophomores and 3 juniors,which doesn't excuse poor play,but I do believe all the cancelled games have hurt this team

which may explain some of the bad games as of late,this team needed the playing time

as in any sport,we all know what Freshmen are capable of,inconsistent play usually

that is my thinking anyway,for what that is worth :)

I guess I buy the youth excuse however it is worth noting that the roster was essentially set up this way when we've "recruited over people" and essentially told upperclassmen you are not going to see the field.

I do hate that since we have the SEC Network,that we miss being able to stream all the home games

I don't know why it should bother ESPN if the schools stream some games they have no interest in broadcasting at all

I do miss being able to watch all the home games online,they could just ask em to put up an ESPN logo at the end of each inning and give up there total control on everything

and yes,I know there paying big bucks for that control,but there making the big bucks too :)
