srsly

Well, it's a bit shocking that Ty "Ricky Vaughn" Ruhl (9 hit batters and 17 BB in 34 IP) and Sheffield (couldn't get out of the first inning 2 days ago and sports a .318 opponent BA) couldn't close things out in the 9th.

4-15 on the road this year (all 4 wins against bad teams).

When Pete's sitting at home again for the 21st time in 25 years as a D1 head coach, he can think about some of these decisions he made during road games (like every year).

Frost doesn't even get out of the 1st . . . .

It really feels like it's gonna be another shitty trip to Joseph Smith World

Top 1, runners on 2nd and 3rd with zero outs. Three straight strikeouts. Can't even put the ball in play once in 3 at-bats. Then, strike out three more times in the second. Then, get the first runner on in the third and - must break the strikeout streak! - so we hit into a DP. Then, we strike out for the third out.

BYU pitcher had a 6.61 ERA on the season with a .319 opponent BA and 16 strikeouts ON THE YEAR entering the game. Now, he has 23 (and counting).

This team is cooked.

They’re just up their flailing around most of the time, now.

Not making pitchers work at all.

Pete (IMO) looks like he doesn’t GAF - At this point

I wish that being up 9-0 going into the bottom of the 4th was automatic (as it should be) but I’m not even remotely comfortable with this lead. Currently 9-2 going into the 5th. I’d say I’m fairly confident we will still have the lead going into the 7th inning but I’m not even a little bit confident we’ll be taking a lead into the 8th

6 ribeyes for O’Connor after 4 plate appearances. 3 dingers and a triple. Insane

[KST8FAN]

Keegan O'Connor is a grand slam away from a HR cycle...
1R HR
2R HR
3R HR
 
14- 2 top of 5.

Can we mercy rule this thing before we get to the pen?

To Gods ears, Tom!

Despite some early dipshittery on the basepaths (and the fact that we're turning a pitching staff that wasn't particularly good at striking out batters into a universal Nolan Ryan), you'd think it'd be easy to be happy being up 16-3 going into the bottom of the 7th.

But, what do we do - we decide to put in our only reliever (Arther) who hasn't been destroyed multiple times in the last few weeks. Wouldn't it be a great time to get some of the younger arms some innings - I mean, even as bad as our pen is, surely a 13-run lead is safe? And, also, our Sunday starter didn't make it out of the first inning last week and then we decided to throw him again on Tuesday in the 9th. So, guessing we're probably going to need some bullpen arms (like, you know, our best one) tomorrow.

Our coaching staff is so bloody stupid...

And tonight I learned that the run rule only applies on get away day. Whadda ya know!

The really ought to change it - maybe in games 1-2, it's more than 10. But, this is getting a bit silly (though, it's good for us to try and cycle through as many of their arms as possible tonight)

Kind of silly that it doesn’t always apply. Hopefully arther has 5 more outs in him and we only use 2 arms tonight

PBP: "Putz is from Loch Lloyd - I'm from Missouri/Kansas City and I've never heard of this place."

Color guy: "He went to Bishop... I'm not sure how to say this, I'm going to guess... 'Mee...juh'"

PBP: "Yeah, I don't know how you say that either. And, apparently, Loch Lloyd is just south of Kansas City - who knew?"

LoL.  The PBP guy bragged early about being the first visiting radio announcer to our woman's soccer field.

They also talked up MHK and love our facilities.

So that was nice.

Need this one today.

Guess they knew Sheffield (and Guyette) had good outings in them today...

No midweek game and rest up for WVU - season is probably on the line. Win that series and we should be safely on the right side of the bubble.

[Kid In the Hall]

First team listed on "Last 4 In"...

If we could win the series against WVU and avoid a sweep next weekend at Cincy, I think we're safely in.

Lose both series (2-4 or worse) and flip a coin (barring a long run in the Big 12 tourney, which is now single elimination).

Austin would be tough but never say never. Last year was fun and the guys will have their work cut out for them if we make it to the Regional.

could have possibly hosted a regional except for the fact that we love to shoot ourselves in the dick repeatedly until we die from it.

Un-effing-believable
