Gotta look ahead! If we can save Osborne he could come back and pitch the finals against anothers team #4 or 5 I like our chances if we can arrange that!

_ While I agree we have to win the tournament I think we should win this game first _

Yes! Lets win the game. 6 run leads are not safe in college baseball.

[wcd35]

_ Do you pull OZ and put it someone else? I think so...we got to win the tournament! _

Its not a bad idea, but this team is probably the best hitting team in the SBC besides MT. I dont know how much I trust my pen over Osborne. I let him go 1 more inning maybe. If its a short inning, maybe 2 innings

Understand the strategy of removing Oz...just don't agree, he's already pitched four, I would be looking for a complete game here. Keep the staff fresh stay in the winner's bracket and let everyone else deplete their pitching.

I agree. If we can get a complete game out of him it would be great.

On another note.....The video feed from Troy is pretty bad. Very choppy and I'm 99% sure it isn't on my end. I'm sitting on a full fiber line with T1+ speeds.

Bostick leadoff triple.

I asked Jay the question about pulling Osborne early. He thinks Tony probably won't do anything different. Likely to leave Zach in as long as his pitch count isnt too high. If we get more runs, maybe we pull him at 90 or so pitches since his count is low.

Benzel with a triple to score Bostick. 9-2
