ZT on the bump wearing pinstripes.

 

[Comebakatz3]

ZT strikes out the side!

 

[OldRed]

Uh oh, we have to score a run now so that Zach Thompson's shot at the most strikeouts without a decision record is still possible.

 

[Black Diamond Cat]

Where's the offense, struggling against everyone we play it seems.

 

[Comebakatz3]

UK leading 3 to 1. Hill and Daniel with home runs. Top 6

 

[Comebakatz3]

ZT strikes out the side. 7 on the day.

 

[Comebakatz3]

4-1 with UK threatening. Kessler singled to right. ARod bunted him over. Hill singled to left. Lewis put down a crazy safety squeeze and got to second on it.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Back to back strikeouts ends the threat for Kentucky.

Thompson gets a strikeout and a foul out to first. Then a liner to second.

 

[OldRed]

Thompson is really rolling now. If he can get a complete game he probably can get a win.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Collett walks on 4. Shelby hit by a pitch. Reed strikes out. He was loading up on those swings. Kessler swings through all three for the second out. Rodriguez also strikes out. Ugh.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Harper on to pitch.

 

[OldRed]

We are not an offensive juggernaut.

 

[OldRed]

We batted .233 for the game which is not going to cut it. A really positive note was 0 walks through 9 innings with 3 pitchers.

14 finally with his first dub of the season! ! I'm truly shocked but happy for him.

There goes the chance a the record (most strikeouts without a decision). I'm glad to see it go.

 

[OldRed]

I'm guessing Belanger told them to throw strikes no matter what. 12 walks against BC and 0 walks today.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Very glad to see the pitching. Think we probably had too many strikeouts ourselves.

 

[Jeff Drummond]

Hoping to get out to the park for Sunday's series finale if the weather will cooperate.

For a little FYI, but probably not a fair comparision...U6 shuts out BC today 4-0.

Looks like best day of the weekend Jeff..

We strikeout at an alarming rate.

 

[Comebakatz3]

We strikeout at an alarming rate.

We have struck out at an alarming rate over the duration of Ming’s time here. Seems like in the past we either got hits or we struck out, not a whole lot of the in between. Now, the hits are at more of a premium, but the strikeouts are still prevalent.

 

[OldRed]

We strikeout at an alarming rate.

We are 6th nationally. Interestingly, Vanderbilt is #1 and Mississippi State is 3rd
