Cintje’s stuff is nasty. Made a few mistakes after he got over 80 pitches, but he’s got potential to be great. For the list part, we actually looked like a legitimate SEC team. The catcher situation is inexcusable though.

We had a few good hits.

Errors in throwing a routine ball to first, base running sliding mistake, passed balls, over throw to first, picked off first, hitting multiple batters.

SC didn't play that great tonight, good but not great. We just aren't even close to good enough to win when we make dumb mistakes on basic fundamentals.

That list of mistakes above. It's almost unreal to look at. That's one game.

“a legitimate SEC team”
Dude we aren’t even CLOSE
They started a midweek pitcher and we got what? 2-3 runs against him.
We walked like 10 batters, made 2 errors, got picked off and couldn’t score with runners at 1st and 3rd with 0 outs.
That’s just a few of the lowlights!
Not sure what the 17 you saw tonight but a SEC team we are not, much less a legit one
Damn!!

Dammit, I’m trying to find positives here. But yeah, you’re right.

Between Hancock being behind the plate and Elaine Forsyth being on the roster in any capacity, it’s becoming almost impossible to support this staff. Forsyth alone botched an out on a stolen base and then hit into his signature DP in the 9th. Stolen bases were a given against Hancock. And we lost by 2 effing runs.

Not sure what drug(s) that announcer was on when Holcomve was pitching when he mentioned something about "this team is gonna be a tough out" when some of the pitching comes back(Cade and ?). I had forgotten Nixon was the closer on Team USA this past year but still. There isn't enough pitching to come back to save our asses anytime soon.

head scratcher--he blows 2 fastballs right by a hitter--then Foxhall calls for a changeup or a breaking ball which they then tatoo. when they can;t hit a fast ball why help out the batter? throw the heat till they prove they can hit it.

With the obvious changes coming to our coaching staff, I really hope we're able to keep this kid on our roster.

I think the most telling thing is that we are playing far worse than even our suspect talent should be playing. That is an indication of systemic off the field issues and that is an indication of a coaching staff that is beyond redemption.

Yeah. There's going to be a lot of turnover between now and next year. He's one of the relatively few we really need to keep.
