Sunday Baseball Thread - MSU vs MSU

[57stratdawg]

First pitch coming up

 

[57stratdawg]

Nice T1 for Stone. His breaking ball really has some bite to it

 

[57stratdawg]

Ace! 1-0 dawgs

 

[8dog]

Ace! 1-0 dawgs

That was Frei. Getting his first start. At 2b

 

[Dawgg]

A fast catcher. What a concept!

 

[57stratdawg]

That was Frei. Getting his first start. At 2b

Nice. Good catch. I heard them mention him in the field getting the start, but Didn’t realize he was leading off

 

[MSUVetRep]

Hinds is just not a good hitter. Hasn’t improved at all

 

[57stratdawg]

Whew. Missouri State pitcher gets the better of Hines. L on L, he goes fast ball, fast ball, change up, high heat. Only 87, but changing eye level makes it look faster.

Hines can’t get the run home from 3rd.

 

[57stratdawg]

Chance K’s too.

1-0 good guys after 1.

 

[Leeshouldveflanked]

Should have scored Highfill in retrospect.

 

[Seinfeld]

Music at sporting events that you wish you’d never hear again…

YMCA is pretty high up on the list for me

 

[thekimmer]

Hinds is just not a good hitter. Hasn’t improved at all

He hits it hard but that is about it. Not a guy you can depend on to make contact.

 

[thekimmer]

Simmons is not very impressive so far. Three freebies reminds me of 22.

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

Whew. Missouri State pitcher gets the better of Hines. L on L, he goes fast ball, fast ball, change up, high heat. Only 87, but changing eye level makes it look faster.

Hines can’t get the run home from 3rd.

Death, Taxes, & Hines striking out with a runner on 3rd & less than 2 outs!

 

[thekimmer]

Make that four

 

[99jc]

Simmons is a ****** pitcher they need to pull him now.

 

[Seinfeld]

Simmons is not very impressive so far. Three freebies reminds me of 22.

I love that he’s back, but like I said two weeks ago, it’s concerning that our Sunday starter is a guy that’s missed the last 2.5 years

 

[57stratdawg]

Whew. Simmons dodges a bullet after a bunch of walks and HBP’s. A blooper off the end of the bat almost lands in no-man’s land behind 1st.

That would have been 3 runs.

1-1 after the T2.

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

First pitch coming up

Open auditions for Saturday & Sunday starting pitchers this week?

 

[thekimmer]

An inning like that triggers PTSD from 22 and 23. No more please.

 

[thekimmer]

Damn Hines.

 

[Willow Grove Dawg]

Death, Taxes, & Hines striking out with a runner on 3rd & less than 2 outs!

2 for 2

 

[MSUVetRep]

Again Hines should not be everyday line up guy. He is a liability with the bat. Great glove.. but having that big of a hole in your swing is going to be damaging to us.

 

[57stratdawg]

Hines K’s with the bases loaded and 1 out.

Haha. He’s got no chance on this L on L matchup.

 

[Anon1684630174]

Hines needs to be in a platoon role for the rest of the year.

At this point, I’m not seeing the “professional hitter” in Reese that Lemonis does. Although, I‘m not sure about Lemonis’ evaluation abilities.

 

[thekimmer]

Hines K’s with the bases loaded and 1 out.

Haha. He’s got no chance on this L on L matchup.

I like the guy. Appreciate him being a bulldog but just do not see what he brings to the table especially against lefties. A HR every 5-6 games is not worth the 10+ Ks.

 

[57stratdawg]

State’s added a couple runs here in the B4. Several extra base hits.

Pulliam with a triple. And scores on a Cupp single.

 

[MSUVetRep]

Cupp has had some great at bats. We needed that

 

[8dog]

I like the guy. Appreciate him being a bulldog but just do not see what he brings to the table especially against lefties. A HR every 5-6 games is not worth the 10+ Ks.

He was .972 OPS in conference last year. I don’t have his splits. But that’s gonna be hard to replace.

 

[Dawgg]

This game feels like it should be about 8-1.

 

[8dog]

This game feels like it should be about 8-1.

It’s early. Long way to go but this offense has been awful

 

[Dawgg]

It’s early. Long way to go but this offense has been awful

Halfway through and we’ve left 7 on base. Feel like that’s something that’s gonna bite us.

 

[Dawgg]

Yay! Waxahachie gets a call out!

 

[57stratdawg]

Hines with a solo shot

 

[Faustdog]

Nice piece of hitting there by Hunter Hines off of the lefty. Glad he's a bulldog.

 

[NTDawg]

Can’t hit left handed pitching

 

[57stratdawg]

Love the HR - bunt combo. No chance.

Home run

State with a combined no-no through 5
