some absolutely terrible plate approaches today. Goal from pitch one should have been to be patient and make this dude pile up pitches. We've bailed him out all day by swinging at balls out of the zone early in the counts.

Lots of big swings today - just need to start putting the barrel on the ball and make contact off this guy. UGA has shown they will make errors.

So at what point do you save arms for tomorrow?
Whitaker will start but the way UGA hits, his fastball heavy stuff worries me
If we were smart it would be Dudan, Consiglio, Smith tomorrow.
Doing something we've literally never done instead of starting a Friday night ACC guy who has lead state to a 7-1 record when he's started games is the smart thing to do?
Yes Whittaker pitches to contact. That's not what you want in this park against this lineup. You want to strike out batters.
Good thing Whitaker has the highest Ks per 9 of our starters and I believe 3rd highest on the team only behind Smith and a touch behind Dudan.
Alex always with those pesky facts
Did you miss the part where I said it should be a bullpen day, with Dudan and Smith? Have you seen Whit against these types of lineups in these types of games in his career?
Got em right where we want em
Their pitcher looks good, he's had us off balance with the CU the entire game. We've chased a lot of bad pitches.
That bunt attempt lol
Yes. Exactly. We get so anxious when behind.BigLefty24 said:metcalfmafia said:

95 in the eyes, gotta say no to those.

Why are you two talking about options for tomorrow? I thought we were winning today or did you not actually believe that?
Talking about tomorrow when it's 8-0 in the 5th is a lot different than 2-0 in the 1st. And you know that. You enjoy when State loses because you get to post your snarky comments when we lose. Every message board has those guys and you play that role here. Some people also believe in their team no matter what. It's all good.
So likely two lopsided snoozers. Tomorrow will be a low scoring nail biter. Pack wins in extra innings. Calling my shot.

I say we get hot our next at bats and scratch out the dub today
For the life of me why aren't we making this guy throw strikes? The breaking ball hasn't been a strike all day. Not bunting with Sosa early, base running errors, Fritton just pounding the zone with strikes against a team that just drops bombs. Horrible game plan pitching and offensively
I like the way our pitcher is working this inning. Only beef is he was up 1-2 on that line drive out and threw back to back fastballs in the dirt. Gotta miss up or away, not many swings and misses on FB's in the dirt.
I'm also down for that.ChemE94 said:flylike44 said:

Let them get all this out of their system.
up and out over the plates, not advised.
Alright boys - time to get a few

I'm positive when things are good, negative when things are bad. Being positive no matter what is childish and naive. Go back and look at my posts. I have no problem thinking we will win down 2-0. Being down 5-0 while making all the mistakes that UGA made yesterday is not a situation where you pretend like everything is great.
If you think I enjoy when we play poorly then you're outside you're simple mind.
gotta be overturned.
helluva play by their SS.

Who is the Bo calling our game?
For ****s sake make the pitcher work.
welp..guess I'll use the rest of my Sunday to buff/wax the boat.
The dreaded let down performance after a big win yesterday was the biggest fear, and it's played out exactly that way.

Two anomalous games in a row.

we've allowed them to go into a do or die game three tomorrow with a full stable of arms, a day after giving up 18 runs. Hell, their starter from yesterday will be available tomorrow. I do not understand the game plan.

We chased a lot of pitches out the zone and he was throwing the off-speed stuff for a strike when he needed to. Mixed it up with the fastball up and down & in. We blew our one inning to put some pressure on him and get our heads in the game. Move on to Game 3.
Geez how many balls have we popped up today? Seems like 80% of the contact is just pop ups
For all you experts, betting is legal in NC now.
This team has been resilient as hell all year. They deserve our support. It's a series after all.
The real question is what pitching does UGA have left to throw at us? We have 4 really, really good options tomorrow. I like our chances.
