We draw 4 walks in first two innings and don't score....missed dp in top of 1st set the tone. We better change it fast.

Young and IT are in severe slumps. I can't remember when either got a hit last. And they were really, really good early in the year. Now they are pretty much automatic outs.

Bednar at 48 pitches. Thomas swings at a bad pitch and k's. 3-0 through 2.

Thomas and Young were two of our best hitters earlier this year. They are hitting 7 and 8 tonight and are batting something like a buck twenty five in Omaha.

Last game of the year and our hitters are still "loading up" on 2 strike swings. Some players simply reject coaching once they step into the box

I really do hope someone is telling them to shorten up with two strikes and they aren't doing it. They definitely aren't doing it.

11 pitch inning by Rocker. Three fly balls. Not very Rockeresque, but we'll take that.

I do not believe this team is going quietly into this night! Or nightmare as it currently stands.

Talk about letting Rocker down.

If this pitcher throws 200 pitches, do you think we might eventually get a hit off him?

Just looked at the catcher stats for both teams.

One of the announcers made a point to say Tanner Logan had thrown out 11 batters "at the plate." I believe he meant "on the basepaths." Either way, 11 CS is not that great but it means nothing without the context of how many successful stolen bases he gave up.

Going into this game:

............ SBA .. CSB ... SB%
Logan ....... 30 ... 11 .. 73.2
Rodriguez ... 26 ... 14 .. 65.0


And we have one steal against Logan already. Jones can steal. Vaz can steal. Enrique needs to get on base and take some freebies.

OK. Kumar is getting it going. Need to do something to support him this time. The botom of the 3rd was just too damn depressing...

Rocker very steady in the fourth. Three k's after the opening misplay at second.

Let's get a hit here. Bednar is up in pitch count and we just need to put a couple of singles together.
