Why are you still watching the games? After Monday's loss you said, "I'm done with this team."

Strike outs are great, but they drive up pitch counts...and I've heard they're fascist :shock:

Do wish Bradfield recognized the value of just getting on base.

Levon, I’ve thought the same thing about high strikeouts and pitch count

Keegan swings for a homer through an 86 mph fastball.

We need hits - this park is huge. Could we just swat singles? We are winning basically because CJ and Noland swung for singles with men on. And delivered.

Given the situation, think NCS pitcher doing well. We are giving him plenty of help with the high flies.

It feels like no matter who we play against, THEIR pitcher is just as good as Rocker and Lieter. That's how mediocre our offense has gotten.

Also... am I the only one surprised that we didn't try to steal second there?

Highfill is now batting 1.000!
Payne at 4.97 after 4 innings.
4.61 after 5 innings. This guy could be a weekend starter next year.

Lead-off bunt single for NC State.

They are playing hard and smart.

We are hitting against a kid who has gone from 9 innings pitched to 14 and we can't hit him. We may be winning but we have really sucked at the plate. Keagan, Gonzo, and others stand there and take pitches down the middle and and lunge at pitches outside pitiful. And now they get a 35 foot hit. Good grief.

Unbelievable - two strikes. Another hit by Highfell.

First and second nobody out.
