Robichaux explains pitching decisions in UL's final game

[whataburger]

We were beat by 1 bad pitch hit with 1 good swing. Odds are we do not get beat twice in the tournament by a grand slam.
That's why the CWS final game went to best 2 of 3 so that 1 bad night does not cost you the championship.

One bad pitch didn't load the bases, but you have a valid point, nonetheless.

We got beat by loading the bases with our all American closer who was having an awful year. Our only pitcher who I have confidence in to keep the runtotal under four was down. There's little to suggest we start scoring many runs. Schmidt is usually good for three innings, but not much more. He failed in his relief attempt. All we had left was Harris IMO. Everyone else had major flaws in recent outings

By typical closer standards it was a good year. By Dylan standards it was a sub-par year.
