South Alabama

[GoneGolfin]

After eliminating national seed Florida yesterday, 19-1, The Jags eliminate #2 seed Miami 7-2 and advance to the regional finals. South Alabama will need to win tonight against #4 seed South Florida ... and then again on Monday ... to advance to the super regionals where they would likely face Texas in Austin.

I was impressed with reliever Tyler Samaniego (2 innings, 29 pitches). He could probably come back tomorrow for an inning.

Great to see the punks from Miami go down. They yelled a lot at the South AL bench while the Jags cheered on their team. Puck Miami and eat ____.

Looks like South Al is catching fire.

Calvi is leaning Boswell as the starter tonight vs. South Florida, though he mentioned a second player he was considering (and would talk with his coaches). Boswell needs to shake off his last two starts and just go out and pitch.

The Jags still have some bullpen left ... but they actually look a bit better staffed for Monday. If the Jags can win tonight and get to a seventh game, they could potentially bring back ...

- Tyler Lehman (60.1 IP, 4.48) - 4.0 innings and 73 pitches Friday vs. Miami (1R 1 ER)
- Jackson Boyd (35.2 IP, 3.03) - 4.0 innings and 55 pitches Friday vs. Miami (0 H, 0 R)
- Miles Smith (82.2 IP, 2.18) - 6.0 innings and 82 pitches Saturday vs. Florida (5 H, 1R, 1 ER)

13-7 top of 8th. 1 on, 2 out for Neck. Villeman throwing straight heat at Tech.

Da.Da.Da! Da.Da.Da! ESPN top ten play by SS ends Tech's hope in 8th. Dove back and to his right to catch a weak liner.

That grab the NC State SS made was dirty.

Tech has a hitters park that’s for sure. The Tigue plays way bigger.

Brian, do you think this delay helps South Al bullpen?

Old yeah. The Tigue has always been a pitchers ball park.

It would make more folks available for the current game that resumes tomorrow. But you can make a strong case that it would have been better had the delay not occurred. They could have let Boswell run as long as he could. Now he is spent ... as is Lord for USF.

14-7, it's over in the RGLP Methroplex.

[JayWalker]

If you've paid attention to South Alabama both in the conference tournament and in the regional, their ability to get crucial two out hits is amazing. That was the Cajuns' downfall this year.

It tells me South Alabama has more water hose guys than we do.

The SEC...it just means more.
