Amazing: Jones puts it on the ground and gets a hit. Yet the idiot announcer says it didn't look too pretty for Jones. What the heck does a hard base hit up the middle have to look at to be pretty? Looked great to me. Would like to see 8 more of them this inning, pretty or not.

Raby actually didn't pitch that badly. Gators with some timely hits.

Infante needs some good luck. His last at bat he roped two balls to left field. One would have been a homer, the other a double but both were just foul

In the words of Mark Grace, Julian needs to find himself a slumpbuster in a major way.

The whole offense needs to find a slumpbuster.

Florida has added 2 more runs in the 7th with two outs. We've gotten another error, which wasn't counted an error, of course. 5-1 UF.

Corbin should take these guys to a local high school and do fielding drills the rest of the day.

The ESPNU announcers wondering how all these fielding mistakes by VU aren't errors.

Not that it really matters. I'm sure the VU pitchers would like them to be scored properly.

The official scorer is very liberal when it comes to Florida hitters and Florida pitchers.

10-1 now, still in the UF 7th with two outs (been 2 outs for 5 or 6 batters, I think). We are switching pitchers again. Justin Wilson to pitch for VU.

Told you guys this weekend would be ugly. Was just a matter of time before the mid week funk creeped into the weekend. Would like to think we have hit rock bottom, but we still have another game here and another road game Tuesday.

A lot of these two losses was fielding though. We give them extra at bats in innings because we can't make plays. This is not normal for us.

You are right. The funk that is the offense is now effecting the defense. They are pressing now. No confidence.
