That quote came from the bottom of the article.

Hitting lost the game tonight not pitching.

" You are playing one of the better teams in the country in one of the toughest venues in the country."

Uhhhh...no we aren't Tony. Atleast you realize that we just need to survive and advance now. Pitching Austin is the absolute right move here.

Every swing has been a home run cut with 20 pop flies.

+1
7 out the 9 have the same exact stance. swinging for the fence on every pitch instead of trying to put a string of hits together. lets see, how many HBP and walks and STILL not a hit? or a RUN? Not a great way to win games at tourney level baseball.

Thanks for clearing that up, great insight

He is complaining about not throwing Austin in the first game. Ryan Wilson threw well enough for us to win.

Let me guess you butt hurt too bc we played to win the regional. Small minded people... Lawd Lawd

We did not look past them. You play to win the regional, not to win one game

And you really think we have as good of a shot at comming up through the loser's bracket? You win the game in front of you and the regional takes care of itself

My 2 cents. I think it was the right move to go with Wilson and save Austin for LSU. Now that we lost, I throw a soft throwing lefty like Boutte or Smith against Jackson St. And again save Austin for the next game. SWAC teams traditionally hit hard throwing fastball guys and struggle against soft throwing pitchers. We will need our better pitcher to get us to the championship game. Again we are trying to win the regional not one game.

I do question one move by Robe. Although I agree with Hicks coming in to pitch in the 6th with 2 on and no outs because it is an obvious bunt situation and he is our best defensive pitcher, but no way he goes back out in the 7th. Of our relievers he has one of the worst batting average against and just hasn't been good over the past 2 months. Our best reliever by far and I said this many times is Kendall Mayer. He has by far the best ERA 1.35, average against .090, and K per 9 innings 1.7. Unbelievable stats! In comparison Hicks ERA 4.89, BAA .306, K/9inngs 0.59. I don't understand why Mayer don't pitch more? 20 innings all year and has given up only 6 hits.

[Dad04]

as far as pitching goes tomorrow, what do we do? start Aut as planned? go with Boutte? give Jordan Wallace a call and see if she's available?

I'd like to see Jordan be first out of the pen.

Well to win the regional, it would be pretty advantagious to win the first game. We aren't luxurious enough to play against a crap SWAC team like LSU and not pitch our best pitcher. We can't think past games, on the road in a regional, we have to make sure we win with our best, then plan for the next game afterwards. If Tony doesn't start his son tomorrow, he's an idiot.

Everybody has an opinion; I just don't agree with yours.

I am looking at the big picture which is not against Jackson State. If you can't beat Jackson State with the other guys pitching (and by the way, we need hits and runs) HOW are you going to beat SHSU or lsu with them.

I'll let our coach make the decisions and hope we start hitting and scoring some runs.

GEAUX CAJUNS!

Lol RaginMan12 is a troll dude. We literally had 6-7 pages worth of disappointment in our hitting on this thread. And stop with this "play to win the regional" crap trying to make yourself sound smarter than us, because its not working

[SweetD]

Nobody is trying to be smart... When you are a 2 seed you save your ace for the 2-1 matchup.. Quit being a fairy
