2-0 through one and a half.

We beat Marshall in every sport. Let’s keep it that way!

[Million$Mullet]

We still continue to make really stupid mistakes on the base paths

[CajunDemon]

Can someone justify the decision to try and steal third base with one out? To me, a runner on second is as good as a runner on third. A single brings that guy home 80% of the time. Of course after Willis gets thrown out we hit a double....

Need to sweep this series

1st inning: bases loaded and pitcher struggling to throw strikes. Runner gets picked off at 1st by catcher to end the inning.

2nd inning: 1 out double, runner gets thrown out trying to steal 3rd base. Next batter hits a double to centerfield wall.

30 games in and Rocco still doesn’t have his timing down. Wonder what is up with him.

[ragincajun97]

Left two runs on the base dang near. With our pitching that gonna hurt

[MWolf]

Hammond has that cutter working early. Best he’s looked in a few weeks.

Something is definitely up. Not sure if healthy, or if it’s between the ears with the draft looming.

A runner on 3rd with one out scores about 50% of the time, and from 2nd base about 33% of the time. So you are 50% more likely to score from 3rd in that situation.

Now, not sure you attempt to get there via a steal, but definitely try to extend a double into a triple (if it makes sense) or go from 1st to 3rd on a single. That extra base is crucial with one out.

Great turnout by the Marshall faithful
