SBC Tourney Final: Louisiana 6, Texas State 1

Yea I don’t think an ejection would have been warranted. That’s something that makes baseball different, there’s no in between there. Either no penalty or ejection.

Im not sure when people will realize what rules are for and respect for the game. Somewhere the line has to be drawn. Alot of the ____ these kids do nowdays is uncalled for. Thats why we are in the “look at me” era. It aint about u. Its about the team. Nothing wrong with celebrating within reason. But alot of this stuff is excessive. Be humble and play the game hard

I am shocked that USM is starting Tanner Hall for Game 1 vs JMU, who played yesterday. I thought they would have saved him for tomorrow, but I guess their thought is they can bring him back if needed later if he starts day 1.

Starting Hall is a no brainer if you want him to be available on Sunday.

Besides…JMU doesn’t suck.

My thought was win today and save bullpen while having him for championship Sunday.

well said. I am sick of all of the celebrations when kids get a double or triple, but now you are seeing it when they get a single. Get to the base raise your hand or clap and move on. It seems every kid is trying to come up with a new celebration every time they reach base in softball and baseball.

This all started in football when a RB would get a 3 yard gain for a first down and celebrate like it was the 4th of damn July.

I know I sound like a grumpy old man, but I am sick of this. I will say it again, what that young man did was wrong, I appreciate that he was apologetic, but the rule that was stated was about bat flipping, that kid did not flip his bat, he threw it on the field of play during a game. He did not hit a walk off; the game was still being played. I don't condone anything about what he did and if I were the coach, even if he wasn't reprimanded on the field, I would reprimand him personally.

This was far from "look at me". Kid was excited after hitting an absolute bomb to tie it up after giving up a lead in the top of the 9th. Again, I will cite Girouard when we won the Houston regional years ago. Not a soul was embarrassed and would have been irate if he was ejected and couldn't play in the super regional. Do we wish he hadn't thrown the bat? Maybe. But it was heat of moment. Not to the level of impacting the player and the team in subsequent games without a prior warning.

Nezuh will start tonight. Fluno goes tomorrow

Gotta win tonight with Nezuh, will set us up nicely for Fluno vs Coastal (or hopefully they get upset by Georgia State in a little bit.

I am a huge GSU fan for the GSU vs Coastal game.

Sounds good. Cajuns go into this with a solid season.

Nobody said what Tyler did was ok or right. And good for him if he hit an absolute bomb. Do what u suppose to do. Run the bases and go celebrate with your team. Prisoners cant run the prison.

Lots of arguing going on around here . . . or maybe it’s just feisty debate . . .

USM vs JMU game is flying by, they are in the bottom of the 8th, USM up 7-1. This game will make up some of the time to get our game back on track, but still behind. Tanner Hall is pitching a gem.

8 Innings, 2 hits, 1 Run, 7K's and no walks.
