Also, we need to bunt some - make them field.

Outside of ss, their fielding has shown me little.

They'll likely bring in the bulky southpaw. He works a good slider off an above average fastball and keeps everything down (at least when I've watched him this year)

All right. Time to knock this guy out of the game and pick up 4-5 runs.

Almost every single one scores.
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.
After that hit I needed some rum! Ha.

Several of our batters look like they're facing de Grom, not a guy with an ERA of 5.5.

Would be a great time for Bradwell to drag a bunt down the FB line. Then MAYBE Young could bring them in.

For all of you who scoff at Carter Young and all his Ks, that is why he hits second. The young man hits it hard and far when he makes contact.

I am so happy for Young. Because he was struggling.

That was a no-doubter. Blasted. 6-5 Vandy.

Still a long way to go.
