Pretty sure he was trying to rattle him so he'd walk Burke to tie the game. Burke wasn't patient,

Yup. Mind games

Beam can only do so much .. when we leave bases loaded twice with our best hitters up .. we aren’t gonna win it .. arry

 

[Volfan2012]

Getting close to the Beam danger zone which is around 70 pitches when he starts looking more hittable.

 

[Christian Lowe]

ITS 101 MPH. ITS NOT REMOTELY AS SIMPLE AS YOU THINK IT IS.

No point explaining it. A lot of the people watching this guys stuff and still not getting it probably couldn’t hit a 85mph fastball on mlb the show, much less real life.

 

[Orangeslide]

Better hope we D up here.

 

[Voltrapnbama]

I bet they push another run across with a runner on….

 

[Bryan1]

What does A&M have behind Cortez?

Idk but he is at 66 pitches with about a 50% strike ratio.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

I would have been less mad if we had just plain old been eliminated. It's embarrassing to make the title series and just play like straight trash. Errors, bad swings, lack of focus. There's no excuse.

Yeah I’m trying to figure out where the fire in the first FSU game went. Guess we just left our clutch hitting there.

 

[ButchPlz]

We only get the middle third of the plate for strikes.

First baseball game?

Fair enough.

 

[BernardKingGOAT]

Drew Beam deserves better.

Baseball

Eventually we‘ll break through. We keep getting close. Once we do, they‘re going to unload on A&M.

Hate to tell you that is a myth. Just like being due. Nothing in life or statistics says you will do better next time. The "bad luck" can continue for a long time. Longer than most can tolerate. Talk to anyone who buys lottery tickets. They always think they will win but most never do.

Man preach! If you threw anyone in here talking **** into a batters box, they’d fold like a cheap lawn chair.

 

[GAVol]

It’s like reading Facebook comments in here.

 

[Delmar]

How many runners did we strand yesterday? 8?

At least 10

 

[nashvol1]

Per ESPN, the last two were strikes on that walk. One in the box and not on the line…terrible.

 

[floridavol25]

First baseball game?

Nope .. probably played/watched more than you …

 

[VOLINVONORE]

Luckiest team we’ve faced. But add being good and everything falling your way = Championship

Probably the best team we have faced.

 

[Weezer]

I've not given up, but this game has been so frustrating. Twice we've had bases loaded and failed to score a run. Our most dependable hitters haven't been dependable. It's maddening. Lord, I hope we pull this one out.

 

[RockyTop140]

I kept saying that we were a team of fate, but im
Not so sure that A&M isn’t. Stranding all of these runners.

If you told me that CMO and Burke were both up with bases loaded through 4 innings, I’d assume we have at least 5-6 runs

 

[Orangeslide]

Great play Burke.

 

[patrick]

Great play BB.

 

[vol66]

Good non throw Dean…great stop Blake.

 

[djohnnyg]

No clutch hitting. Bases loaded twice and nothing.
