BB G3 Final: Louisiana 10, Coastal Carolina 12

[CajunSID]

Coastal scores 10.88 at home and 7.3 on the road…. And they won at home a lot so don’t even bat in the 9th. Also had some run rules in there as well.

There’s nothing wrong with admitting Cajuns are not a top 25 team right now. That was re-established this weekend. Team got fat off the weak part of the schedule.

Got exposed a little this weekend, but there’s no doubt in my mind potential for a successful postseason is there. Just need to be clicking at right time. We will be fine.

I saw a team that played their worst defense since Arkansas State series, got squeezed by umps in a hitter friendly park against an elite offense and nearly took the series at their place. Yea, I think we’re alright.

Who thinks the Cajuns aren’t a top 25 team??

I’m not sure we watched the same series. Friday night, you’re spot on. Today, they split a DH with a top flight team, on the road in one of the toughest places to play outside of a handful of elite programs. This team absolutely showed they belong among the top teams in the country.

I’ll be surprised if they fall out of the top 20, much less the top 25

Looked at their record and thought the same. Who the hell beat those bats?


We’re still in a good spot. Pitching against good hitting did not inspire confidence. Aside from LP.

They got into the base of their pen. I thought that was our chance, but they didn’t hit them. Also a concern.

Tough winning in that tiny park. A 3-2 week is fine. Not great. I think we learned a lot this weekend, though.

I guess you didn’t watch Christie hold them to 1 run in 7.1 innings of performance.

Watch baseball much?

I couldn’t have said it better.

Coastal just held UNC to 4 runs and gave them their first home loss of the year. They definitely needed this series and were up for it and playing well coming in. Without the 2 errors in the first Friday this is a 26 inning war. I’d gladly play them again in any other ballpark. I actually feel better about the Cajuns after this weekend then I did before.

Christie pitched well Friday even though it wasn't under tremendous stress. He kept the score where it was to give us a prayer over 6 innings.

Yep.

I was concerned that this team had just been riding the wave of a fairly weak schedule. This weekend showed they are right there with a team that will likely host a regional. And as you said, field the baseball in the first inning Friday night and it’s an all out war for 3 games…against an EXCELLENT baseball team.

I very much look forward to, hopefully, playing Coastal again in Montgomery.

All things considered, we'll be fine.

Very disappointing pitching performance this weekend other than Langevin.

Don't forget Christie. I know it didn't matter for the game he pitched in, but coming in on Friday and holding those Coastal bats to just three hits and one run in six innings was awesome, and allowed our pitching staff to be stocked to compete yesterday.

Hopefully we can get more four to six inning performances from him like that down the stretch of the season and into the post season.
