KSU—We Won the Series at #23 KSU

[Chop]

Thomas.

grounded out.


Cats Coach to the mound. Pitching change.


7-3 us

still in the top of the fourth.

 

[Chop]

Kennedy with the 2 run dinger! Gee just when I was ready to throw him overboard.

Yeah. If the reverse Mojo of these boards work, our 2nd basemen will have the most productive bats for the next month or so.

 

[giveemhell]

Final score predictions? I'm going to say 17-9 good guys

 

[Phil Elliott]

OPS = On base + slugging, right?

 

[giveemhell]

I’m going to catch the rest of this game later, but here’s a handy list of home run slang terms for the play-by-play guys: moon shot, ding-dong, oppo boppo, round-tripper, going yard, going deep, long ball, jack, oppo taco (huh?), no-doubter, bomb, blast, four-bagger, and cannon shot. Those should last you through at least the 7th or 8th inning.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Im with Ace and Pierce here - IDK where this umps strike zone is anymore.

 

[WorsterMan]

Is this game on cable? Cannot find on regular sports channels. Maybe ESPN +

Softball game is on. #2 Horns behind 1-0 early to
Okie Lite.

 

[Chop]

Cats pitcher is crazy wild.

 

[Chop]

8-3 us.

Gaspo k, but dropped ball and C missed throw to first. Gaspo safe at first. Flores comes home.

8-3 us

Now they retire us.

To the bottom of the fourth.

 

[Phil Elliott]

This new pitcher is throwing nothing but junk and we are hacking at it like little leaguers.

 

[Chop]

Ace just has to keep the lid on. No big innings. A run here a run there. Ok tonight.

 

[Chop]

This new pitcher is throwing nothing but junk and we are hacking at it like little leaguers.

We need to be taking more pitches. They’re in the dirt, all over the place.

 

[Chop]

Play at the plate. He’s safe. They’re reviewing. D Kennedy threw it home. Close.

8-5 us if it stands.

 

[Phil Elliott]

We woulda been out of this inning with 1 run surrendered if Kennedy woulda just gone to 1st. Game now tied 8-8.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Galvan singles up the middle to score 2! Now 11-8 us.

 

[Chop]

Hurley takes over on the mound.

 

[Chop]

Tole's not pitching like he was last year.

 

[Chop]

Hurley: throw strikes with breaking stuff. Don't leave it hanging up high in the zone. In tonight's game, just get outs. Giving up 1 run doesn't hurt. No big innings. (easier said than done)

 

[Chop]

Son of a gun. Hurley walked him. Bases loaded...

 

[Chop]

Ugggghhhh. Base hit with 2 RBIs. Brown can't get a handle on the ball well.

11-10 us. S-L-O-P-P-Y

 

[Chop]

Base hit to RF. Belyeu guns it in so the runner holds at 3rd. Still 11-10 us. Bases loaded, one out.

Hurley is done.

I'd say this situation is high enough leverage for the big gun--bring in Boehm.

 

[Phil Elliott]

Sooo theres nobody in the bullpen who can put a zero on these guys? IDK what to think.

 

[Chop]

I'd say this situation is high enough leverage for the big gun--bring in Boehm.

And that's precisely what Pierce does.

Enter Boehm. A few batters too late is better than after they've already taken the lead.

 

[Chop]

Sooo theres nobody in the bullpen who can put a zero on these guys? IDK what to think.

There's one person who can. And he's on the mound now. Will he do it tonight? To be determined.

 

[Chop]

And Boehm walks in the batter.

 

[Chop]

Tie ballgame

11-11

 

[Phil Elliott]

Big gun boehm walks the 1st batter he sees on 4 pitches. Man our bullpen is on fire and not in a good way.

 

[Chop]

Boehm

K

 

[Chop]

Groundout.

Finally!

11-11 tie.

On to the 8th.

 

[Chop]

Stupid walk to walk in a runner, then 2 straight outs for Boehm.
