KSU—We Won the Series at #23 KSU

[Phil Elliott]

We'd still have a 3 run lead if not for Kennedy trying to be a hero instead of taking the easy out.

 

[Chop]

This is not the kind of excitement I enjoy.

If it was tied 3-3 right now, I'd probably like it.

Where are our pitchers?

Maybe Boehm can bring us on home with no runs surrendered in the 8th and 9th.

Yeah, when you've got a significant lead, just get the outs. One run won't kill you.

 

[Chop]

The Cats field even worse than us.

 

[Chop]

Very interesting. Thomas call out stealing 2nd, but overruled--obstruction. Thomas safe at 2nd.

 

[Phil Elliott]

These announcers going on and on about how the throw made the SS go there as if that matters.

 

[Chop]

Powell fouls some off then K

One away.

Flores up

Thomas on second.

 

[Chop]

Flores!!!!!!


RBI Single to RF.

Thomas with his speed comes home from 2nd!!!!

12-11 us.

 

[Chop]

Belyeu steps up to the plate.

Wooooooaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Phil Elliott]

After PP strikes out, Flores singles to RF to plate Thomas. 12-11 us. Belyeu just homered so now its 14-11 us.

 

[Chop]

Kabooooom!!!!!!

Belyeu sends it 1/2 way to Nebraska!!!!!

2 run homer!!!!!!

[Phil Elliott]

But can we hold a lead?

 

[Chop]

Shoos

K

2 away

Gaspo to the plate.

 

[Chop]

But can we hold a lead?

Leave Boehm in there as long as he's looking strong---hopefully all the way through the 9th.

If Boehm falters, go with Tumis or Fontenot.

 

[Chop]

Single Gasparino

 

[Chop]

Porter Brown walks.

2 on
2 outs

 

[Chop]

Galvan to the plate. He could hit it to South Dakota from here. Most power on the team.


K

To the middle of the 8th.

14-11 us

 

[aUTfan]

We’ve scored two touchdowns and still worried about losing the game by a field goal.

 

[Chop]

Bottom of the 8th

Flied out to Gasparino. One down.

Ump's strike zone is erratic.

 

[Phil Elliott]

So Ace went 5.1 and gave up 5 runs. Not up to his usual standard, but then Hurley and Tole surrender 6 runs in 1 combined inning. I think I see our problem.

 

[Chop]

Ground out to Powell.

2 away!

The fog is lifting. And I see little in the way of proven reliable quality set-up men and middle relievers. (I still have high hopes for Fontenot--he's been a bit hot and cold, but he's got the stuff)

Boehm is a very capable closer. Tumis probably will be one, but perhaps not as a True Freshman...?

 

[Chop]

Boehm!!!!!

K!!!!!!!

3 up
3 down
