Im here at the field - Tarp is on the field and it's wet, but looks like we'll have baseball tonight!

2 out single has South Carolina up 1-0. Fogel error helped give them that run as he just overran a ball in right to give USC a free extra base.

He was going to be on second either way. It is really wet here so ball is skipping. Should be interesting in the outfield.

Headrick didn't seem to think that was the case. Either way... not real clean baseball.

Bases loaded no outs and UK going to a new pitcher in the top of the 2nd. Short leash for Stricky.

Why didn't Hazelwood start tonight? I thought we were getting he and Bosma back this weekend...looks like it's going to cost us.

Lee gets a comebacker and goes home for out 1, then he gets a double play ball, but USC beats it out and it's 3-1 Gamecocks.

Brutal.. Lee had a strikeout and the umpire missed the call. I mean, it was clearly a strike. Next pitch is down but gets taken yard and it's 6-1 USC.

I haven't kept up all that much but it sounded like Hazelwood might be shutdown for the year. Bosma is supposedly close to being back though.

It absolutely was a strike. Next pitch - gone. Really tough break.

So the home plate umpire has some kind of medical emergency and the game is in a delay for that. Will resume with only 3 ups the rest of the way. Bottom of the third behind 6 to 1

Got one back. Then got thrown out, easily, at home. Bad base running always plays for us.

Then UK gives up a home run. 8-2

I'm sorry, guys. I'm hanging it up for the night. It is hard to watch this team struggle to be competitive with USC.

Cats fall 11-3.

Miss State currently down to TAMU 8-7 in the 8th. They have 3 outs left to make up that run or we remain tied

Just piss poor tonight. Yeah I want to make the SEC tournament but I'm afraid that will justify extending this b.s. another year.

Hoping Harney tmw and Bosma Sunday gives us a good shot at winning the last 2, but SC throws their ace on Sunday for some reason, so it's pretty hard to win a series against them if you don't win Friday.

I listened on the radio for part of it. It’s just time to move on to another coach at this point. Game management not good. Recruiting is probably the worst in the league. Development is poor at best. I just don’t see any positive developments with the team.

Or hopes for the future.

We should just let Coach Lawson coach both the softball and baseball teams. No joke. She could probably do a better job than Mingione.

Just a pathetic effort. Sickening that this is what we deliver with postseason on the line.
I don’t blame the team for not performing. They are playing the best they can. We just don’t have the talent to compete consistently in the SEC. It’s Mingione’s job to recruit SEC level talent. Bottom line is that’s just not been done. Sure we get 3-4 SEC kids a year but that’s just not enough when others are getting 10 plus each year.
