Lots of quitters showed up in the thread tonight

 

[Pacer92]

7 hits thru 3…lol

 

[OldandStillaVol]

Need to chip away.

 

[lilesrt]

Starting pitching continues to disappoint

We won’t last in Omaha like this.

 

[TooLegit2Quit]

Glad he was able to close out that inning, just not his night. Need the bats to get going here.

 

[GoVolunteers]

This Notre Dame team is definitely taking advantage of hittable pitches

 

[Tenacjim]

Extra outs will always bite you in the a$$

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Tidwell has looked really good… and yet we’re down 5-0. That’s baseball for you.

Thanks, Jimmy.

 

[casetopia]

Ok ND wants a slugfest. Let's give them what they want.

 

[volmoon]

Is ND batting practice over yet? When does the game start?

 

[OrngeJuiceJones]

No.

C'mon man, he's getting hit so hard and it's still just 5. It's still do-able.

 

[ALStateLineVol]

I think ND are able to pick up his pitches. After the 1st HR, you could see the players in the dugout giving hand signals. At least that is what it looked like to me.

 

[Volstylexx]

They are getting too many bats on balls, he’s leaving them high A LOT. I love Blade, but pull him.

3 game series and you’re already down 5. You don’t spend your best bullpens arms in the 2nd.

 

[vavolfan6]

Need to get some momentum...anything will do

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Extra outs will always bite you in the a$$

Mama always said that too.

 

[patrick]

Trouble.

Going to have to hit. Need several runs this inning.

 

[runthrutheT]

Need to go to Vollie. A softer lefty will get them to roll over. They are timing Blade. Gotta make a change

 

[youcancallmeAl]

Blade is getting his fastball up. Need s to make a correction and start putting up zeros.

 

[tnvolfan16]

Everybody last week was acting like there was no deficit that this team couldn't overcome, so if they were right, here we come

 

[LordVOLdemort]

We have a huge staff to not change out pitchers.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

ND has a read on pitch pattern. Tidwell throwing short arm change followed by meat fastball every time. His in zone fastball is perfect. Don’t know why he isn’t throwing well out of zone.

Sequencing is a little odd. FA usually calls pitches, so dont really know what hes seeing.

 

[Tenacjim]

Well at least we learned the “panic threshold” of this board…panic at 3-0 you’re a “noob”. Almost everyone panics at 5-0!

 

[volman128]

Starting pitching continues to disappoint

Our offense in the early innings continues to do the same.

 

[TheMookieMonster]

Tidwell has looked really good… and yet we’re down 5-0. That’s baseball for you.

He’s not looked really good. He’s grooved several awful pitches with 2 strikes leading to 2-run HR’s. You can’t do that. That’s not good pitching.

 

[Weezer]

What is it about Vols sports teams facing Catholic schools? It was that magic nun in basketball, and now Notre Dame in baseball....
