The Official Tennessee vs LSU College World Series Game 1 Thread (Sat. June 17 7PM EST) ESPN

I’m convinced these announcers have Paul Skenes as their Lock Screen

 

[Zues1]

Stark has a decent eye but not the bat speed.

 

[BruisedOrange]

... Need to not go 0-3 every ab this time lol

That's the way it's going to look until we catch one. That's the strategy against this pitcher. He can go 120+ pitches, so no benefit making him throw 7-8 pitches per batter.

Balls coming off a 100mph fastball leave the park quite nicely, whenever it happens.

This is like facing Nolan Ryan.

Skenes has more control than Ryan, this is like facing Pedro Martinez

 

[THEONLYTENISEE]

Slide Maui down the lineup please.

 

[barney]

This is getting ridiculous

 

[imw8n4u]

This is like facing Nolan Ryan.

Kind of reminds me of Randy Johnson.

 

[GhostVol]

Skenes throws triple digits to make you start looking for it, then settles back into nothing but off-speed junk 'cause now you're looking for the heat

Trots out another heater once in a while to keep you from sitting on the off speed

Hasn't broken triple digits but a couple of times since the 1st inning

This cat ain't all that

 

[Vtonerider]

Maui is overmatched by a change up

 

[Go47]

Gotta keep it close . . . And hope to get him out of the game late maybe?

 

[Caz]

Ahuna being consistent at least

Need to settle in and figure out how to hit him. He’s really good but he’s not invincible.

 

[theroyz71]

Ahuna is 2 for 2.

 

[lilesrt]

Slide Maui down the lineup please.

We’re not in Kansas anymore. He’s average at this level.

 

[Volbrando]

Gotta swing at those

Right just gotta get the barrel on the ball

This guy is just that good, once in a generation type of talent

 

[VolFanGBO]

Maui is horrible man… lord

 

[KnoxtotheBoro20]

I know Skenes is good, but we are making him look sooooo much better

 

[Aerie Vol]

Cheat.
Code.

Good thing they only have one of him.

 

[LordVOLdemort]

MAUI!!!! Come on, dude.

 

[Orange931]

These LSU punks need knocked down a notch

 

[GhostVol]

32 year old senior at LSU waling off the field with a "doo" rag....

Snork

 

[Switch 625]

Ahuna is just lost

 

[Zues1]

That catcher likes to show up the ump.
He'll get tired of that.
