CWS First game thread

Anyone want to take bets on a Young K?

Heart of the order again

[charlestonalum]

Kumar retires them quickly again.

Some earlier posts made me think that AZ pitching was a little questionable - so far the guy looks pretty good

[roanoke]

That was our first 1-2-3 inning of the game.

[commadore]

First baseman must have been playing on the line for LaNeve.

[charlestonalum]

Our new radio announcer Andrew called the last 2 innings. He knows his stuff: has done his VU history. I like him. Kevin now back on the call

[DivergentDore]

Almost depressing; 9 hole hitter stays squared and drives one out of the park while our 2-4 hitters hit weak grounders trying to pull outside pitches

[roanoke]

two strike HBP always come back to haunt this team. It is unbelievable.

Almost every single one scores.

Good career for Rocker

[roanoke]

That was their first hit since the first inning.

[Vufamily]

Waste too many pitches

Yep we had 2 outs 2 strikes and hit him and boom 2 rum HR. Another unearned run and 1 earned. Hate to see Rocker leave game like it began. Hope this is not his last game.

Damn, Kumar. That sucked.

[OldDude]

feeling the pressure ? Errors

[Vufamily]

Our fielding sucks. Why is Keegan squatting like he’s taking a crap

[Vufamily]

We’ve lost all mojo

[cmwllms10]

We gotta answer back right here!!

[roanoke]

It is a very fast, hard field. You'd think we would be used to that - with our concrete field. But it is different.

There are some nerves at work, too, evidently.

Lot of time left.

[Vufamily]

Do we have the firepower at bat. We struggle a lot at the plate. Seem to be feast or famine
