Okay, I do have to laugh at Johnson’s reaction to giving up the bomb to Romero, waving at the ball as it sails out.

Congratulations to Miss State, they certainly rose to the occasion against 5 freshman pitchers who struggled to throw strikes, just one day after they couldn't solve Leiter/Maldonado, and one day before they get to face Rocker and the rested M's. I like Vanderbilt's chances tomorrow. The defense and offense will certainly play better.

And there is hit number 4. Max Romero blasts a homer. 13-2.

Gotta say, the State pitcher's reaction was pretty funny, waving bye to Romero's HR.

They have found a lot of holes. I like State's approach to hitting, shorten the stroke and line the ball.
I’ve been jealous of almost every other teams approach to hitting. State put on a clinic tonight

I watched part of the game on TV until it was clearly out of control. I disagree with your conclusion. Our pitchers had a very difficult time finding the strike zone. Lots of walks. I lost track of how many. There were a few freak plays, like the ball lost in the web of our shortstop's glove.

If getting 14 hits isn’t a clinic then what is?
