BB G2: Louisiana 4, UTA 3

[CajunStros]

Got it done. Bottom of the lineup comes through.

Good pitching again tonight.

[Rainman66]

7 conference series wins (with two left to play), last done in 2017.

9 in 2016
10 in 2014

So, only the 4th time in the last 10 years this has been accomplished. It may not be as pretty as we want or like, but it has been effective.

Another one of Deggs’ moves that makes sense only one way..

Another head scratcher.

[J-Town Cajun]

Getting really irritated with Brandon’s play at the plate and just recently in the 8th, defensively at first base.

Brian

Watch him at the plate, he’s not in position to swing when the ball is on its way to the plate. He loads too late, and then flings his arm late because he’s rushed.

[Boomer]

Ah. Assumed it was still the same crew. Can’t really see up there today.

…..Man we had fun Friday night…..who is the guy from on high that does the Ragin’ of the Ragin’ Cajun cheer……mvp…..Charles Bordes who threw out the first pitch came with Steve Sere……the CPA and juvenile officer learned some baseball…..too much in age for Vic’s kids…..all helped with video cell phone!

RPI drops from 42 this PM to 52 this evening.

[LifeTimeCajun]

Good thing we won

RPI drops from 42 this PM to 52 this evening.

Cajun opponents not doing well this evening ... after doing well earlier in the day. RPI dropped from .5608 to .5580 well after the results of the UTA game were in. We need UC Irvine to knock off UCSB this evening. 7-7 in B6th.

I have a question for the group of people here that have been critical of the team and coach all season.

Before the season started, if you knew the Cajuns would have a top 10 non-conference schedule, AND be in a conference that has 5 teams in it (other than the Cajuns) that are in the top 70 in the RPI…what would your expectations have been for the team’s overall record (54 games)?

UC Irvine takes down UCSB 11-10 ... and Stanford takes care of Cal 8-7.

I would of expected them to be in the thick of things in the conference race just as they are today. And my expectation was a 39-40 win team. Thats what this team is capable of. And if you look at the games we have gifted away…thats about where we should be. The season rarely goes as you draw it up in Feb, in fact it almost never does. But lets go back to earlier in the season and how that played out. The guys that were used on the mound were the best guys coming out the fall, supposively. Where are they today? We havent seen some of those guys in over a month. Not gonna get into calling out players but they have terribly underachieved. Why? The way Deggs managed the first half of the season was inconsistent to say the least…like he was grasping at straws at times. The pressure to succeed began to mount, but to his credit he calmed the waters. Hes got his guys now, roles have been defined, and has them rolling in a more positive direction. You may take some comments as negative and critical, but its what has taken place.
