Oh well, let’s keep Zander’s pitches low this inning please

 

[Putbacks]

Need efficient pitching and good defense now.

 

[Berry4Heisman14]

I think we can smoke this kid I’m just not sure we can lock them down they are on fire right now

 

[87&91ALUM]

Three pop ups and three outs. Score tied up.

 

[BruisedOrange]

Why is Burke showing bunt he did it yesterday

Wilkerson said something about a shift by 3rd baseman, and Burke showing bunt to move him back where he wants him. I think.

 

[sportsnut624]

I hate how impatient we’ve become at the plate. They have zero pitching left and we just swing at the first piece of crap we see that is coming across the plate. It’s ok to take a strike every now and then

 

[Switch 625]

Another player tossed for Clemson for celebrating home run.
Bakich tossed.
2 of Clemsons best players and their HC will not be available tomorrow.
but they are leading 10-9 in bottom 12

Umps for that game are trash.

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Feel like we are pressing to hard trying to clobber this jokers pitches, leading to these pop ups.

 

[Score50]

Everyone swinging for the fences when a base hit gets the job done.

 

[theroyz71]

Uppercut swings

 

[Jimmyandjoes]

Our average with RISP is abysmal this series

 

[Gladiator1]

Surprise, no runs without a HR. At some point we need to generate runs without a dong

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

Damn come on guys play small ball if u have to .. we need to just get the run .. they make a mistake and we don’t make them pay

That was 3 straight terrible plate approaches with no outs and a runner on 2nd. Billy trying to homee, DD with a lame slap swing, and Ensley not keeping his weight back.

 

[volz2wallz]

Come on Z-man and defense!! GBO!!️

 

[VFL1127]

I don't understand why almost every swing has to be a home run swing. What's wrong with hitting the ball on the ground?? Lol

 

[MoCo_Vol]

Wilkerson said something about a shift by 3rd baseman, and Burke showing bunt to move him back where he wants him. I think.

Burke is so damn good man. I can’t believe how much he’s developed his hitting.

 

[Orangeslide]

Zander needs a clean inning and we need to make routine plays on defense. Aces are gonna put the ball in play

 

[Score50]

Everyone wants to be a hero. Just get a friggin base hit.

 

[BruisedOrange]

Three straight pop outs with a man on 2nd. Poor hitting

Nooby question: How does 100% humidity effect different pitches?

 

[volsagain]

Ump sucked in the bottom of the 1st he better give Z those pitches .

 

[Orange931]

Both teams popping up now lol

 

[BreatheUT]

Damn come on guys play small ball if u have to .. we need to just get the run .. they make a mistake and we don’t make them pay

It was telling that we had 3 pop-ups. Go for the singles luck into the homeruns. We got enough strength to hit it naturally.

 

[cjbongoinstructor]

0 outs with runner on 2nd and we can’t advance him 90 feet - we were supposed to be building on the momentum of the 9th inning from yesterday. Making the pitcher work, not going for HRs and trying to put ball in play like Evansville has done

 

[NOLAPhil]

Good on ya Tears. Call off the infield.

 

[ButchPlz]

Needs to stay sub-40 on pitch count here.
