  1. Well, it was a FB on the inside half of the plate. He wasn't going to hit it anyway.
  2. Why is Flores reaching for his body instead of putting the glove in front of the bag?
  3. Wind blowing straight in at 15mph and we're chasing shit up in the zone. It's a strategy.
  4. It's okay, guys. Pierce always has them ready for the CWS.
  5. Throwing 0-2 pitches over the heart of the plate isn't a great idea.
  6. 6 innings by LBJ, holding them to 2 runs and he can't get a f'n win out of it. Just unreal.
  7. Catcher hits well. Catcher throws well. Catcher struggles with...catching.
  8. ...in a respectful manner and without raising our voices too loud so as not to disturb others.
  9. It's women's' basketball where nobody really jumps and she's 6'9". "Stand over there with your arms up. If the ball is going up, swat it away. If it's coming down, grab it."
  10. Cameron Brink and Shay Holle are both 1st round draft picks. If they're available, you take 'em. They're pretty good at basketball too.
  11. 19 point lead at the half. Y'all know what that means...prepare for a nail biter.
  12. Holle has the conditioning to do it. I think she played all 40 last game and we saw how she finished it. She's a not a great ball handler, so she doesn't drive much and won't draw the fouls on big gal, but she can do everything else so that someone else can.
  13. Joke's on you. I was never paid to play, thus no "career." 😀
  14. Best mid-range jumper in WBB. Clark is a better pure shooter, but I'm not sure her mid-range J is as good.
  15. Based on his fielding issues and problems at the plate, I'm wondering if his eyesight isn't slightly off. Completely serious. I went through a spell where I was having trouble with fastballs, but hammered the absolute piss out of anything off speed. Couldn't figure out why. Turns out my dominant eye was ever so slightly nearsighted. -.25 or something minuscule, but it was enough to affect me. I could hit the off-speed stuff because the spin meant I had more red (laces) to focus sharply on. Fastballs weren't out of focus, but they weren't as sharp. It was something I never would have noticed except for baseball.
  16. Umpire has suddenly extended the strike zone to include 4" off the outside corner.
  17. Agreed. We need to score more runs than they do in order to win the game. 🤘
  18. Can our 1st baseman not step/stretch toward the throw to 1st? No reason the runner should have beat that throw.
  19. Love seeing Holle geting in on the scoring action. As unselfish a player as you'll see.
  20. #50 for KSU just barrels into the scrum for rebounds. Those are fouls.
  21. Shay Holle is playing hard and looking damn fine doing it. Her value lies in being an incredibly athletic fast-twitch 6-footer who's smart and understands the game. She does everything except score a lot (but others are able to because of what she does). Some serious genes in that family.
  22. I hate how girls rebound. They just slap the ball around instead of trying to take possession. I'm not talking about 2 players going up to grab a rebound at the apex of their jump and trying to tip it to a teammate. The girls just constantly swat/bat at it, mostly over the back, etc. It's maddening.
