Bases loaded…

Is that 8 left on through 4? Frustrating stuff.

Being too aggressive with the stAte pitchers throwing all this off speed junk.

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 usual self.

I disagree. They would have done the same thing for anybody in our lineup, save for Holderbach.

Correct. Boyd as his usual self is Holderbach. they don’t think much of Boyd right now.

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.

Gittin beat up.

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.

Our boy, 25, had a 6.66 ERA.
Let the bad spirits consume the other team

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

Batting around in Jboro. And they have one really loud a$$ fan.

Gave them that big inning with poor fielding. Chirico pitched much better than the score shows.

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

Chirico's own defensive play was his worst enemy today. Cost himself runs in 2 different innings.

3 runs in

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.

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

I assume they went with Sleeper for the Lefty/Lefty matchup. Think he was facing 1 batter regardless. Unfortunately he threw a wild pitch and gave up a stolen base before walking his 1 batter.

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!

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