Why did we use our best bullpen arms down 9-1 in the first game?

Down 6-5 now, 2 solo shots for Troy.
Back to back to back for Troy. this is why you don’t use your good arms game 1 when down by 8…

Pitching coach.

Throwing a guy with 5 career innings in a high leverage situation is certainly a decision….
Do we want to win or are we just throwing guys to throw them? Throw your best arms!

We used Everett, Beaty and Smith yesterday after the score got to 9-1. I fail to see how that is burning your best pitchers.

I’d like to have Everett today but he hasn’t been a world beater.

LaSpaluto too but I guess that was when it was 5-1.
Tramontana LaSpaluto Harris Lewis all should have been available today. Seeing Fisher before Little Tramontana Lewis is odd.

Troy is like soccer players faking injuries..on called 3rd strikes they dramatically try to go to first and then do the jump and high bat flip to show disgust after the fact humorous

Tough break for Aguila, gets on from an error but turns toward 2nd and is tagged out.

We need something, haven’t had a hit in 4 innings…

2 more LOB. Holderbach has been left on 3rd 3 times. Should be 8-7 but 7-5 Troy. Running out of time, T8

1-12 with RISP. Ouch.

Bullpen and no clutch hitting today. Had a lead and a chance. This one hurts

5-1 in the 3rd. Now 12-5. Given up 11 unanswered. Pitiful. Think we know our fate now, was hoping this series got us back in the thick of it. Have to win SBC tourney to advance.

We're just not a baseball destination for talented players (especially pitchers.) They want warmer weather and I really don't blame them.

Have to find a sweep or two. Need to win the rest of series handedly, especially Southern and GaState- they’ve got a high RPI. Reach down and find it men! Bounce back vs Little brother Tuesday.

I think we’ve got some pretty good talent and had it last year. Definitely more at the plate though. Our offense is near the top in a lot of categories. Pitching is near the bottom.
I’ll give some grace as we’ve been without Brooks all year and Zang (Missouri decommit, no clue if he would have been good or not). Also have been out Xureb all year, Moronta for some of it. That’s an excuse though, everyone has injuries but a couple of those are key injuries. Have to find a way to consistently win and we aren’t doing it at the moment.

2nd to 11th is only 3 GB. Need a sweep v Ark State this week and we’re back in it. Still have South Alabama as well, must win those.
