Kentucky's New stadium is named for an agricultural organization and the state famous for the type of grass that is great for baseball fields yet their new stadium has artificial turf, smh
Well Texas that was freaking brutal.
The Troy SS said “hold my beer”
Bottom of 9th, 2 out, runners at first and second, tied game, routine pop up to RF. Apparently only the CF saw it. SS, RF & 2B didn’t see it off the bat, it’s just before sundown out west and it was lost in the sky. Was too late for CF to break on ball, held back with the two infielders running outward and the RFer searching.
Man, saw the replay with the pitcher headed to the dugout expecting the catch. What a gut punch.
I’m sure the meltdown is epic on the UT boards.
Missed it. Watching USM.
Actually the CF (Kennedy) did not see it either. He was not running in the direction of the ball (and was visibly looking for it), though he could have gotten to it. It was about 15 feet in front of Campbell, but he never saw it. The second baseman was running back trying to point it out to the two outfielders, but he could not get to it.
It was twilight … and if you are unable to follow it off of the bat, it can be difficult to find. I feel really bad for Dylan Campbell. He is taking it hard.
Horrible way for a great super regional series to end.
Amazingly, the two outfielders that won the game against the Cajuns defensively (saving the Horns four Cajun runs) are not able to make the play that would have sent the game to extras.
