In Compton's defense, he was there for the play but the ball was hit hard and knocked his glove back to allow it to come out. Overall, though, he did seem a little raw at first base. Even in warm ups and between innings. I guess that's what you get when you haven't started in a while. Had some trouble getting the ball out of his glove on a couple of occasions. Bowman's base running error was just unforgivable.

Greg Fontenot's play was the best I've seen all year. Amazing.

Ball hit up the middle, Fontenot picks it out of the air on a full dive and then gets up and guns the guy out. Beautiful play.

He was laid out horizontally to his left about 6 inches off the ground. I didn't think he had a shot.

What a frustrating night. Parker was lights out. And I can even live with the HR we gave up that barely went over the wall. Greg had another web gem of a play. He will be the most missed 5 ft 8 in player in the history of this program. I can't live with the stuipid ass baserunning mistakes. We are 40 plus games into the season, yet we can't figure it out on the bases. Fuze made another bad descision trying to stretch a single into a double. The play was in front o him...in a tight game with base runners at a premium, he never should have tried to run. And I don't even wanna talk about Bowmans bone head play. We don't compete at the plate near enough for this team to make it into a regional. We need help offensively...again! Will this ever change?

Not as long as Tony is coaching them. He acts as a drag on hitters. Not enough time to tell you how, but I have posted it before, as have others.

We didn't get a lot of hits last night, but neither did they. It was a pitching duel.

Compton didn't have to move and it was belt high or so....it didn't flip his glove, it hit off pinky finger....no reason it shouldn't have been an easy catch

Overall a great game and atmosphere. What I would like to see for any future games with attendance like this is to resell seats not being used. I sit in the grandstand and there were may seats with no one in them. Saw all around the stadium. Possibly if it is a sellout ask season ticket holders who know they will not be able to come email the ticket office to resell their seats. Seems simplest enough. People in those seats would generate more money and the concession stands would benifit also. A thought.

I will defend Compton a little bit. Hell, he's a true freshman and hasnt played much defense this season. He played last night, I suppose because we have a junior that is hurt, and a senior that made two errors Sunday. And neither can hit a lick this year. When he gets it, and he will, he is going to be a hitter.

Oh. and the ball was pretty well hit. Should have had it though.
