Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Little gets a strike out to end the frame but ODU gets a 2 out rally for 3 runs to regain the lead 5-4 heading to the bottom of the 4th.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
No runs allowed in top of 5, still 5-4 ODU. They got a single but that was all the action for them in the 5th.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Throwing error by their 3rd baseman gives us a runner on second with 2 outs. Time to make them pay for that mistake.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
My favorite type of double play- strike em out, throw em out. Two down, no runners on bases, top 6.

And just that quickly they have runners on the corners with 2 outs. Going to the pen for a new pitcher, Otani takes the mound.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Baseball is such a fun sport, you really never know what will happen. Wild pitch and our catcher can't locate the ball so the ODU guy on third takes off for home. Problem is that we find the ball when he is about 25 feet from the plate, he puts on the brakes and gets into a pickle that we execute properly for the third out as he tries for home. Time to get some runs as their starter is done and the relief guys are on.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
i really like our freshman SS, kid has serious game. I predict we will need some serious NIL to keep him in Boone. Still down 1 headed into bottom of 7.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Just on cue, Lichtenberger gets a blooper into shallow right/center just outside the second baseman's range for a single. It extends his on base streak. Kid can ball. Runner on first with 2 outs.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Liam Best in to pitch the 8th. 12th appearance of season. I assume we are looking for him to finish it out. Our pitching has been good thus far this series so we have available arms if needed. Hopefully he can hold them and our offense can pick up a couple runs over the final two innings.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Best with the strike out to end the top 8th. He worked around a double from their second batter and retired the last 2 on strike outs. Need to get some runs here, still down by 1 bottom of 8th.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Luft with single to left for his 3rd hit of the day. They try to pick him off and throw past the bag allowing Luft to take second. Runner in scoring position with 1 out.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
I see Luft and Lichtenberger, both freshmen, are both from Boca Raton although different high schools. Does anyone know if they played travel ball together? They must have at least known of each other as Boca isn't that big and game knows game.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Their catcher can't handle strike 3 so we get to first and Luft advances to 3rd. Runners on the corners with 1 out. Really need to make them pay for that costly error. Pitching change.

Re: 2025 Baseball Mega Thread
Yes, base hit threw the hole between second and first scores Luft to tie the game.
