I Southern had any pitching they would be scary dangerous.
by rabend1 on May 30, 2009 4:27 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
they would also need some defense, it was abysmal

Nice showing by Southern..
too bad they couldn’t finish off Minnesota.

Baylor's going with a righty..
interesting (he says with a smirk)

Mitchell makes 'em pay!

A perfectly executed bunt
that doesn’t help us one bit.

Lost opportunity there..
It would have been nice to get some runs in the 3rd

Both pitchers would do well to realize
the umpire isn’t giving them a friendly strike zone.

Ranaudo = awesome, through 3
faced the minimum, struck out 5.

Hawthorne...
… just jinxed Ranaudo. But Ranaudo is pitching a gem so far. I know there are more praised rotations, but would you trade our 1-2 for anyone else’s?
And now Richard jixed Ranaudo as well.

He's not pitching a no-hitter :/

It's a pitcher's duel
but we’re going to get to this guy soon.

They're expecting mitchell to bunt?

No Hawthorne..
a wild pitch is BETTER than a bunt

Mahtook makes tons of baserunning mistakes

And Mitchell!
Giving them outs!

Got one run, but overall a wasted opportunity

Ranaudo = still awesome through 4

Now we get the lefty :(
We couldn’t really get to the righty, and now we have the guy they probably should have started all along, and we have our lefties in the lineup.
Richard Pittman

Strangely enough..
Miller doesn’t really have good stats against lefties, if you believe the Gametracker.. and he’s about to walk Landry
Richard Pittman
by Richard Pittman on May 30, 2009 7:21 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
And this is why you send a lefty against us..
even our right-handed hitters struggle against lefties, it seems.
Richard Pittman
by Richard Pittman on May 30, 2009 7:30 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Can they hit Ranaudo at all?
Richard Pittman
by Richard Pittman on May 30, 2009 7:37 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
We're back into the bullpen..
Let’s get to the righty.

Interesting choice to bring out their "ace"

Now here in the 8th, down 1, a bunt is a smart call by the Bears. But let’s see if it pays off.
by 4.0 Point Stance on May 30, 2009 8:28 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
That bunt actually worked..
and he probably wouldn’t have scored if not for the bunt, unless the batter had gotten a hit of course.
Richard Pittman

Alright..
We need to get some hits and runs. And I think we need to get Ott up.
Even if we lose this one, I think we’re in fine shape. Minnesota doesn’t have a lefty, and Baylor is using up ALL of their decent pitchers.
Richard Pittman
by Richard Pittman on May 30, 2009 8:37 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
I dunno. I get the feeling Baylor is trying to keep its pitch counts low enough that these guys can go again tomorrow. And the way we’ve swung our bats these last two days doesn’t give me a hell of a lot of confidence that we can even hit rightys
by 4.0 Point Stance on May 30, 2009 8:47 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
I just hope we get a 10th inning at this point.
Richard Pittman
by Richard Pittman on May 30, 2009 8:49 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
heh. I was hoping we could end this one in 9. I’m already an hour late.
by 4.0 Point Stance on May 30, 2009 8:54 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
I think the first two had about 50 pitches each..
I don’t think you can come back from that without rest. Volz is getting pretty close too.

Sending Ranaudo out again
interesting

Hope we get some free baseball
Ranaudo is still doing his job

27 outs; 13 strikeouts
Heck of a game Tony.

Try again!
Guess our bats stayed over in the football facility where the team had to dress.

Great Steal
Mitchell looks good again on the base path

Hansen is human
Good try by Baylor SS!

Another huge hit for Nola

OK...Defense!
Where are we in the Baylor order?

This has to be the worst hitting performance I've ever seen from Schimpf

my video must be way behind.
you said that before we got out #1 on my video.
Richard Pittman
by Richard Pittman on May 30, 2009 9:20 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
I got it now..
I think I was maybe 30 seconds behind or so
Richard Pittman
by Richard Pittman on May 30, 2009 9:23 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
We outplayed them overall, but couldn't get the timely hit..
which, as you taught me, is mostly random chance.

Ranaudo
JSN is talking with Ranaudo…extremely nice guy…most complimentary to the fans for their support. Said at times it was louder than the old Alex Box.
See you guys tomorrow if CoxSports decides to carry the game.

Baylor's out of pitching..
they used up everyone.
Richard Pittman

What does Minnesota have left
We get the 6 PM game…Minnesota has to play the first game against Baylor, then come back against LSU
by lawildbull on May 30, 2009 9:32 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
They've used up 2 starters..
and maybe their closer. They still have pitching. Baylor has used up literally all 5 of the pitchers they used most often during the season. Even if they can string together some guys to beat Minnesota tomorrow, they would only have scrubs to go against us, with Coleman on the mound.

Baylor coach says none of those guys will pitch today, but any and all can pitch on Monday
