I was texting my buddy who is a D2 ump, & said one way to slow all this plate-crowding down a whole lot would be to just ban the elbow guards. He responded that he was literally typing the same thing to me when he received my text. 
it would change everything.

I know for sure that I’d be a metric fuckton braver at the plate if we’d had elbow guards. And I still got hit a lot.

While not as bad as Aggy going from #1 to unranked and missing the postseason, our season isn’t ending up much better.  A totally epic collapse since the aggy sweep. Getting absolutely boatraced at home by UTSA is completely embarrassing. 

It’s comparable to aggy softball melting down against Liberty in their regional.

Rule changes going against player safety are pretty in right now for sure

My ump buddy also said they knmow people are doing it and have been trying to get on top of it but nothing's worked. Said they'd have to go to automatic review of every HBP to get it under control.

UTSA pitcher has 14 appearances all year, this is his fourth start, he has a 7.85 era, and we can’t score on him. aggravating.

To win this needed to flush him early.  Now that he has 4 under his belt they probably got the arms.

Reminds me of the third string QB’s during the Turtle Tom era who played against us who looked like All Americans after they beat us.

What's the deal with the kid in the TEXAS shirt sitting there doing the horns down behind the plate?

Gonna guess it’s an aggy who thought he was being clever by paying for a ticket and a Texas shirt so he could go to the game and root against us. He sure showed us.

Not sure why Volantis isn’t in the game, this is the season

Offense needs to show life to even worry about that.  Who cares if they score more runs if we can't score 7.

Lost in all the terrible ABs is how hard Grubbs has been hit lately.

Yeah.  We really don't have the pitching depth to fade him not showing up this weekend

Oh, absolutely. 100%. And the way they allow the guard to extend way past the elbow is fucking bullshit too. It increases the chance of getting hit.
