Sun Devils Opening Game Thread

Good start.**

ASU’s lead off hitter nearly doubled down the line, then pulled the next pitch over the left field wall.

1-0 ASU.

 

[PearlRiverCoDawg]

Followed by 5 straight balls

 

[Seinfeld]

Like deja vu

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Sounds like the wind is blowing out.

…..jeeeeezus…….

 

[1msucub]

Good heavens. What in the WORLD is going on with this team, man?

 

[57stratdawg]

bad baseball

CSmith closing in on 20 pitches without an out.

 

[Anon1669338224]

I think we just need to accept it. I was holding out hope that maybe we could take 2 this weekend.

 

[onewoof]

Wheels off the bus wow

 

[PearlRiverCoDawg]

This is little league stuff. Unbelievable

 

[Anon1669338224]

Can we choose if we wanna be the away team so our batters can hit with it still tied?

[dog99walker]

Cade is not throwing strikes….
Dakota (freshman) throws to third and let’s the guy on first to advance
Highfill (freshman) passed ball….
Bases loaded, no one out….
Ugh!!!

 

[57stratdawg]

Thought that one was gone.

 

[Seinfeld]

This is little league stuff. Unbelievable

Yet happening over and over and over again with virtually any pitcher that Foxhall has had more than a season to work with

 

[dog99walker]

Three walks; three runs. Thank you, Cade.

 

[Seinfeld]

Welp, I guess it’s time

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Is Lemonis sitting in the dugout looking at his phone by chance?

 

[57stratdawg]

Cade with the ole “behind your ear” to change up low and away.

 

[Crazy Cotton]

This could have started better….

 

[The Maroon Pug]

Is Cade getting squeezed on the plate? Listening to Ellis/Polk, and they have mentioned it a few times.

 

[Seinfeld]

This is a shot at our coaching staff, not Cade, but it is downright depressing that this is our Friday night guy

 

[TrueMaroonGrind]

5 walks 2HRs 5 runs 2 innings

No doubt on maybe 3-4 pitches, but that doesn’t explain the other 40 or so balls he’s thrown

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

My wife just said “Why dont Lemonis get off his fat *** and do something “

 

[RockyDog]

Pretty impressive. Kept the pitch count under 75 in the first 2 frames!!

 

[FlotownDawg]

Smith threw 57 pitches in the first two innings. 24 of them were strikes.

 

[karlchilders.sixpack]

Smith threw 57 pitches in the first two innings. 24 of them were strikes.

Was that including the two that left the yard?

In all seriousness, it really sucks when this happens on Friday night. You never want to concede a game 2 innings in, but you also don’t want to burn through 4-5 more bullpen guys in a loss that then ends up costing you on Sat/Sun.

something tells me the 3rd inning will be Cade’s last one way or another

 

[DAWGSANDSAINTS]

Gonna be a LONG year boys!

 

[Crazy Cotton]

Their guy’s throwing a lot of balls too, we’re just swinging at all of them

 

[o_dawgnabit]

This is pathetic that this is suppose to be our Friday night guy.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Can Arnett coach baseball too? This team is Charmin Soft.

 

[RockyDog]

No worries about the offense. It’s just the pitching!!

 

[onewoof]

5 walks 2HRs 5 runs 2 innings

Gotta be a raw 17 year old frosh on the bump

 

[Seinfeld]

I mentioned a few days ago that we better not get too happy about our batting until we saw them against a few decent pitchers, and this game isn’t making me feel very good about that so far

 

[ZombieKissinger]

What's really sad is that now that Mississippi's elementary education is improving, more kids than ever are reading these stat lines

 

[SchrodingersDawg]

 

[AstroDog]

Cade Smith = 5 walks
AZ Pitcher = 0 walks
