Louisiana vs New Orleans

The other thing that hurt tonight... NOBODY in the Sun Belt won an OOC game... There's always tomorrow...

Cajuns were #12 in RPI just a week or two ago... Get back on the winning track and they will move back up.

It starts with McNeese tomorrow night. One game at a time. Lots of baseball left. This one loss is a bad one, but will have zero impact in June. More important to keep everyone healthy and playing their best in June.

Ump behind the plate was pretty bad. Strike zone was all over the place. We swung at a lot of garbage but maybe the moving strike zone had something to do with their decision to chase them. That failure to cover 1st base really hurt us in the 4th. Instead of getting out of the inning the runner is safe and OhNo made us pay. Still we gad our chances and didn't get it done. Congrats to a OhNo. No crying here about shaved or heated bats.

Hammer i agree. The Ump behind the plate had to be a Hoax Graduate. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After reading all of the posts about Robe's "poor" coaching decisions, I would expect all of you to be at Scott Farmer's office in the morning asking for Robe's job.

As I said during football season: Winning brings higher and higher expectations. Losing is like your favorite dog dying...

In Robe I Trust...

Suck up. You and CajunHawk should be best buddies.

Anyone else worried about Shugg's leg? Pretty sure that was his bad leg… I hope it's nothing too long term. Feel bad for the kid, he's already relegated to DHing, it'd be a shame for him to miss a bunch of time or possibly the season.

UL coach Tony Robichaux: DH Tyler Girouard is “seriously sore” after taking a pitch off the kneecap, but that may be the injury's extent.

I wouldn't put all this on Robe. He brought in Carter who is usually good and he didn't get an out. Plitt, who's only had one bad game. Nick Z. let an inning go. Then Big Thunder. Did you want him to keep Hicks going and waste him on the weekend?

The blame is on the fact that in spite of our 7 runs, we could not get a hit when it counted 3 straight times in seventh, eighth, and ninth. Pinch hitting for Strentz might have been a good idea because Thurman can hit a bit.

UNO played good ball. They get some credit too.

I have a question. Why bring in Carter? Didn't the first guy give us good innings. Why not pitch him until he starts to pucker? I don't question coaches line up decisions. We scored plenty of runs to win. Our pitching started out great. Why jack with a guy who's knocking down batters like bowling pins? I doubt Robe will continue this philosophy the rest of the year. He's had his chance to push the envelope as far as he can & still host a super regional. Now it's time to get your team back on the right track for Omaha and a national championship.

I hope Tyler's injury is just that a bruise, he is a really good hitter and a good kid. He deserves better luck.

You're right. UNO did play good ball, and I don't want to take anything away from them.

He's one of our primary closers on the weekend. You can't afford to have him throw too many innings.
