Round 2 promises to be a real battle between these two regional rivals that know each other very well.
Would love to get a little payback from when they sent us home in Omaha.

I think Eberle might get the nod tonight. Not exactly sure why. If so,it'll be the biggest stage of his young career so far.

Three guys I'd like to see get it going tonight

Pike, Rose and Davis. Not sure if Mac's going back to Klein or not.

Have to say, I've never liked these Astro throwback uni's..

If we can win this game they may become my favorite though..

Whistlers mother has returned
THAT IS SOOOOO ANNOYING. Davis is just up there wailing away with no sense of control (EKjr at the beginning of the year). He needs to be a batter, not a hacker.

Two really good innings for Biven. Seems locked in. Hopefully we can get him some more runs..

The infamous walk of the 9 hole hitter. Nothing good ever comes from this..

And here it goes…WTF. Balls, wild pitches. How in the hell do you just lose so much control so quickly?

Yeah, 8 straight and half not even close. That's some in-between-the ears going on with Biven.

All in all very lucky to comeback and get out of that inning. I was envisioning a lot worse..

Really think CDM should bring Hot in the next time Alex comes to bat. Hot doesn’t hurt us defensively and has a strong bat.

Showing some low baseball IQ right now that really cost us. First baseman throwing to 2nd makes a lazy throw and hits the runner in the back of the head. Third baseman has no play instead holding the ball he throws a wild ball to first.

Unfortunate should have known his only play was to 1st. Same with Davis bad throw. Gave them back the run but didn’t give up more.

I hope leaving all those ducks on the pond doesn’t come back to haunt us.

We escape that inning I wish we would play the first half of the inning like we play the 2nd half of the inning.

I agree with you on the announcers I would love to see Louisville pull this win out and have them eat some crow.

Sheeeew, glad to get out of that inning. Had the makings of a big inning, good pitching to get out of it. We HAVE to tack on a couple runs here !
