SB Regional G2 Final: UL 1, Ole Miss 5

[Flcajun]

Did Dixon or Lamb travel?

Having no losses, Don’t we have the option to continue pitching Ellison or hold her for the next game? WTF is funny about that.

Your acting like there is a next game. Down 2-0 we should be winning this one.

Relax. Thought you were referring to another option in the circle. Geez.

[CajunVic]

Boy the arm chair coaches (roaches) are coming out from under the base boards now.

[RaginScotsman]

We need Kleist pretty badly.

You gotta be kiddin me. 2-0 in the 3rd and the strategy is to lay down??

You see how bad the backups are?? Let her rest instead of throwing 120 pitches then having to go back out there. Our bats haven’t been active for the past few weeks. We have to try and hope for a pitchers duel in the second game

[GoneGolfin]

What was Boswell doing. She didn’t appear to leap on the 3rd pitch.

She was illegal on the pitch that was being argued. That said, I saw Finney as illegal this weekend ... and it was only called once.

Pretty sure our other pitchers wouldnt consider it laying down. You still can win with them (although it helps if you throw legal pitches and you cant predict that). Emotions was starting to hit the team after the in the park so letting summer calm down and focus on game 2 is a good thing imo.

[RaginScotsman]

There’s a hit.

I’m pretty sure Roberts tiff with the ump was as much about Finney.

Yes I’m speaking up. It’s the most crucial time of the season. Players make a few mistakes that could be overcome, and the coaches compound it by pulling your only arm that will win at this level. Yeah if we don’t score we’ll have a fresh ellYson for next game. But I guarantee the moment we pulled her this game was over.

It is not laying down. It is about being smart with the percentages. They can still bring Ellyson back in if the Cajun offense proves it can score. If not, you have a reasonably fresh Ellyson for the second game.

If you leave Ellyson in the game and the Cajuns cannot comeback for the win, Ole Miss will take the second game (Ellyson will not have enough in the tank).

A key will be how many innings the Cajuns can force Molly Jacobsen to throw in this game (being competitive and scoring some runs). We do not want Ole Miss to pull her and rest her for game #2.
