Calm down ppl! We know we can play anyone in the country. It's not about how we play on April 26th. These boys will be ready when they need to be, you will not be on your A game every night at the ballpark. they have been ready for 95% of all the games. Personally, a super regional on the road is possibly our best chance. Have we lost away from The Tigue this season? Away games make them rely on each other more, they lean on that for comfort. And Please Enjoy the ride!

We didn't lose the game because of the incompetence of the 1st base ump. It won't keep me from _____ing about it though.Quote:

We in a little rut right now. Things not going quiet like they have been. Nothing that we can't change. Things just didn't go our way. Kinda been feeling it coming on...that happens in a long season. This is still a good club. We just showed we human. We ran into a good arm tonight. They gotta grind out the next few games
It's ok to vent. I can't knock that from any fan. I just want us to enjoy this ride. We are gaining ground on our foes every single day.

Agreed. It was amateur hour at the Tigue!Quote:

I was at the Tigue tonight right behind home plate. From my perspective that was a double dimensional strike zone. I can't remember in all my years of watching baseball a worse umpiring crew. I am going to rewatch this game later this week on espn3 replay to get a different perspective but if it goes anything like what I saw first hand the home plate umpire won this game for Texas state. If you have a strike zone the size of a mouse hole you are going to get tee'd up (literally) like what happened tonight. At this point I don't blame the pitching for getting smashed because what I saw was a two way strike zone. Again, if I see it differently watching the TV replay ill gladly admit getting beat, but I feel like I was a kid getting jacked of my Easter candy tonight....
Don't buy that. We got out pitched and out hit. Umpiring was worse than horrible...but that is not why the Bobcats looked like a top ten team.
The fact is he was in perfect position to see the play, made a call right or wrong. Nobody else could possibly have a better view of the play. He should be suspended for his next rotation. Robe got tossed for explaining exactly that to him, maybe too emphatic but absolutely right.Quote:

They (umpiring crew) must have asked for security last night. They wouldnt let anyone leave the bleachers down the third base side except for the exit nearest the grandstands. John law was blocking all the others.
I call the same thing last night......don't duck it would be obvious. Call for an outside pitch off the plate and come inside hard. A Bazar 97-98 MPH. Catcher reaches for in and Opps I missed it.......not to obvious. Than the catcher visits the pitcher so the ump. can regroup. Aint that what they do to help one another.....If that would have happen after the blunder first base call the crowd would have come unglued......:) :) :)Quote:
