3 run blast off Lewis, who throws 94 yet threw an offspeed pitch on 1-2 count. That might do it. PITCH CALLING.
12-8

I know lefties seem to always have a job, but we just don't need to see Sleeper in a game at this point

Would be a tie game 8-8 if coach didn’t make a bonehead decision.

Ark St tried to go lefty on lefty but they couldn’t switch pitchers because of the prior mound visit rule with the same batter! Moronta laces a 2 RBI single off the righty.

9-8. Buckle up!

We pull within 2… 8-6 and then put in ….Sleeper?

With Tramontana and Lewis available?

Come on Sleeper, do a job!

Instantly 1st and 3rd no out.
I’d like a word with our pitching coach. What is the point of that? We’re 35 games in, you know who to throw by now.

Here we go. Come on bats. Runners at 2nd and 3rd no out. Need a big inning here. 8-3 Ark St

0-2 count again over the middle of the plate. 2 RbI single… Come on guys! Make them chase with 2 strikes?

Gittin beat up.

He threw fine- threw strikes and not many hard hit balls at all. No way we should be throwing fastballs in 1-2 counts with his curve as his out pitch. What is this pitching coach doing?
We need to get out of this inning though and limit to 6-3.

Horrible pitch call 2 batters in a row. 1-2 counts 2 outs bases loaded and we call fastballs to their best hitters? Throw the curve! 1st and 2nd hard hit ball all day, Chirico got screwed that inning after 3 soft choppers.

6-3 Ark State, new pitcher.

No respect for Boyd Arkansas State isn’t going to let Tolley beat them if they can help it. Doesn’t have much to do with Boyd. It has to do with Boyd some. They just put Tolley on 1st with a runner at 3rd. That means they don’t respect the hitter behind him. Doubt they’d IBB Tolley if Boyd was his ...

Chirico drawing soft contact.
Our bats are leaving some guys on base and their pitchers change up is giving us issues. Need to work counts and get into their pen.

2-2 T4.

Hasn’t burned them yet. Got walked or HBP both times they IBB’d Tolley yesterday.

Luke Wilson as well. But, yeah, I agree. Proven bigs from portal or juco. Yup. So we’re essentially replacing Abson, Spillers, and Hayes with Wilson and Marcus Jr at the moment. Need more! We definitely need one more player with good size. I am hoping for 6'10 or taller in one of our last additions...

What do the players eat when they get to 1st base?
1st base coach gives them something every time and they put it in their mouth. Gatorade chewy or something?

ASL clutch with ducks on the pond! Double down the line. Tied up 1-1. Ark State pen getting warm.

4 series decided, 3 up for grabs on Sunday! App can gain a little ground with a sweep and 2 Ga State wins (unlikely with where the 2nd game stopped) & the other that's bound to happen in either a JMU or Ga Southern loss. Still have Chirico Tramontana Welch and Lewis today. No clue why we “burned” H...
