UL vs UALR Game 2

[J-Town Cajun]

Score tied 1-1 after 4 innings. Olisen lead off the game with a first pitch HR. UL has had other baserunners in scoring position a few different times but the bats has not deliverd. Lil Robe has looked good so far only giving up a couple of hits. UALR got its run after a hit then a sacrifice but which got the runner all the way to 3rd when no one covered the bag. The runner then scored on a balk.

UL should get to this pitcher soon.

[J-Town Cajun]

Top of the 5th with runners at 1st and 3rd and 2 outs Keefer up at bat when the runner at first steals second and the catcher makes a wild throw to score the runner from 3rd. Keefer then walks. Now runners at 2nd and 1st.

Marvel at bat. K's

UL 2 UALR 1.

[J-Town Cajun]

After 5 still UL 2 and UALR 1. Keefer throws runner out at 2nd to end the inning. Keef has been way better than anyone could have thought at throwin out runners this year.

[J-Town Cajun]

Keefer has thrown out 16 out of 23 base stealing attempts. That is 70%. For those of you who do not know that is really really good. I am not sure what the national average is but I would guess about 40%.

In comparison UL has stolen 64 out of 80. That is 80%. Also a really good number again.

[CajunStros]

Jay said Bowman is kinda banged up so we see Fuse more, i.e. against the lefty yesterday. He is doing ok so far today though, 1 BB, 1 hit and 1K.

Coach Robe told me Wednesday that Bowman is still recovering from a sore wrist and wouldn't be able to hit for the weekend.

Justin still throwing? How many pitches is he on.

_ He's not helping the team at all right now. Maybe a break would do him some good. _

Fuselier is playing with a shoulder brace since he injured it against NWST. This is why Marvel is playing in the outfield.

[J-Town Cajun]

Poirrier is just horrible defensively. He makes 2 errors on the play (1 fielding and 1 pitching) which on the play he could have made an easy double play to get out of the inning and save Lil Robe's arm.

Poirrier needs to be DH'ing for 2 reasons. Bostick is much better on D and Marvel has not shown me much at the plate. The way Osbourn and Robe pitch with a ton of ground balls we need to have our best defensive players out there.

Score now 7-3 with one runner thrown out at the plate. Robe throws another 20 or so pitches. All this after the error.

[J-Town Cajun]

Poirrier now has 13 errors on the year. This is not counting the number of plays that are not counted as errors that Bostick can make such as turning double plays.

86 pitches after six innings. That should be it for today.

Excellent outing for Justin today.

Lay off of Fuse. He just got a hit. despite batting with a shoulder brace.

[LSUTiger4RaginCajuns]

I've read somewhere that Jordan is playing with a brace and Bowman is not available. Trask maybe?
