    Bitch-ass in-game posts like this are what make the game threads such a beating.

  • Damn good stuff from Gordon and Chris Stuart tonight. Really like what I’ve seen from some of the arms so far this year.

  • Certainly not on 2nd base. amirite?

Based on your posting here your user name seems very appropriate.  You probably my need to get laid.

Plenty of good things happening with this team, 22 handcuffing them for years from the 3rd base box is not one of those things 

Damn. Wanted to come out over .500, but a lot of good takeaways from the series.

Well that's frustrating. Indiana is a really bad team and we needed to sweep them.

Ah well. On to LSU.

I really hope Pierce rethinks his strategy on the base paths. Our young guys need at bats and some of them are going to be great college players. Trust them and give them a chance, don't start being ridiculously aggressive everytime we get somebody on base. Especially if that player doesn't have the speed or skill to be a D1 base stealer.

If we didn't run into three outs today we might have won, we had that reliever kind of rattled and he was throwing balls. But Pierce didn't give our guys a chance at the plate.

Also what a horrifying slump Campbell is in. I sure hope he breaks out of it fast.

On the plus side the relief pitching has been more consistent this year.

Did we give it to 'em or did they earn it?  Either way, it sucked balls today.

I am pretty sure the 3rd base coach isn't sending people from first. I mean ultimately it is Pierce making these kinds of general strategic decisions but that has nothing to do with his 3rd base coaching.

He started at USC and had good success.

Eh, he has a 5.71 ERA in Pac12 play. He might be best as a swing guy who can throw multiple innings/piggyback off Sthele on Sunday’s.

Now do Morehouse and Stehle.

5.71 vs 6.00 vs 6.03. We gonna split hairs over that? Especially when all 3 look significantly improved from last year.

Stehle had an 18 ERA in conference play with no starts.   Morehouse has 2 starts and no wins.  at least the usc guy has won games at the conference level.

3rd base coach PUT the 1st base coach at 1st brah.

Our base running under DP is, to put it mildly, for sucks.

And we're not just talking this year gents.

So we're just going to get thrown out again? Let them hit Pierce. This is embarrassing. These guys aren't base stealers. 

This series is a measuring stick to see how we will do stealing 2nd base going forward.  Hope Pierce knows now where we stand.

Wait, you don't think the runners on 1B are getting their orders from the 3B coach? That would be a new one in my experience.

... or maybe I'm just misreading you.
