Out with 2 runs damage

We got lucky that it was only 2 runs

I hope Sullivan can pull it together while the Bulls are batting.  How about a long half inning at the plate?

Nice little gift there.

These commentators are annoying. How do you defend sliding outside for a double play when the umps are just following the rule book? 

I know a kid who’s leg snapped in half because of it. It’s a safety issue especially with metal cleats.

I don't think I'd ever seen anyone frozen by an arcing 77 mph breaking ball approaching their grill.

I get the safety issue, but I played/coached in a world where you were supposed to take the guy out on a double play, but there's a "clean" way to do it.

Pitching was atrocious whole tournament. Number 1 pitcher is way overrated and the bullpen was terrible. But the good news is that the hitting sucked too. You can see a big difference between us and OSU in both games.

Yes definitely. He was barely to the right of the bag but hands up instead of feet flying up probably get you the benefit of the doubt more times than not

Something seemed off about is the last stretch of the season and this tournament.  Pitching has been some of the worst I’ve seen it from this team in a long time. Bats couldn’t wake up this weekend to save their lives.
