It appears the only thing they are focused on is playing as poorly as possible

If this it, I'm thrilled with the progress small has made and our freshmen position players. Got to find a way to get small back. We should have a potent offense, and self and price will give us the back end of the pen. Need small back

7th is it for us... Allen, Stovall, Mac, and foscue with their guy around 100 pitches. If we can't scratch there, it over

We aren't even close to scoring a run on this guy. Can we not make an adjustment? Still trying to pull that slow breaking pitch...refusing to wait back and try to drive it oppo. Pathetic performance by our bats.

How different is the last 24 hours if Henderson trots Self out there when France walked the first batter in the 7th with a 10-7 lead?

Yup it's brutal. Self has literally been unhittable for almost a full game worth of hitters now. 24 batters in a row.

If I went in the back yard right and maxed out throwing to my 5 year old nephew, I'm not sure
I could dominate him more than this FSU pitcher is punking our lineup.

They don't adjust at all. Stovall has popped up 700 times since arriving. Is he gone after this game?

It's embarrassing for sure. But at least we can just tip our cap to a great pitcher, instead of yesterday when our own coach beat us...that's the games I can't stand. You bring Self in in the 7th and we've got Ethan Small vs Samford tonight at 7.

Just gotta hope they have to change pitchers for the 9th is over and we can hit that guy.

If westburg is available, use him for Alexander. Use Skelton for Gilbert. Can't hold back here

Their guy can still still hit low 90s at 100 pitches. Small and pilk lose major velocity after about 65-70 pitches. Our S&C is an embarrassment. New coach has to correct this

Parrish looks like he could thrown another 105 pitches. First 105 were zero stress.

Guy just struck out Westburg and didn't even throw a single pitch in the strike zone. Great approach guys

What a **** show. 2 pinch hitters struck out on 7 combined pitches. This has been an embarrassing 2 days for MSU baseball

That's on Gautreau imo. Westburg should have a take sign till he sees a strike. This guy is killing us with that first pitch breaker... we swing like every time at a non strike, then look at the 0-1 fastball.

What a frustrating two days. Thirty runs total yesterday, 2 runs total today. Talk about losing on opposite sides of the spectrum.

Best thing ever is a rain delay. Hope it rains 3 hours. Top of lineup vs new pitcher

Weather delay?! Wait this is actually a really good thing for us. Parrish has to be pulled now right. WE HAVE A CHANCE!!

Amen.

Can you believe these guys grew up playing the game of baseball?

Just sit back and wait for a braking ball up in the zone and drive it.

He should be pulled, but you never know with college coaches. A lot of them don't give a frick about a pitcher's arm, and this is Martin's last year

Why not try something different at the plate instead of continuing to aggressively get out and shorten his pitch count?

Bunt some? Make them field and throw.

Take some pitches? If you can't hit him, wear him out & raise his pitch count.

Look breaking ball, ignore fastball? If you get caught with a heater, oh well, you ain't hitting him anyway.

Something? Anything?
