But gotta get those rivalry matchups to maximize ratings. They didn’t have to do much to shuffle and avoid an all SEC super easily could have been Bama at Texas, aggy at OU and FSU at Tenn Edited May 26, 20241 yr by Js1
May 26, 20241 yr Hopefully Texas advances a little more comfortably than Florida just did. That was tense at the end

Those choppers and the slapping are part of the strategy of softball. I mean Ichiro took some of the concept of slap hitting and speed and got like 6000 professional hits in 2 leagues. Fair enough but Ichiro was 1 of 1. beyond the slappys(which yes I am no fan of) I think the bigger field would benefit less station to station and other things like JS1 said with double plays. I'm sure it won't change. that said, I hope our slappys kick aggy ass today.

May 26, 20241 yr Unbelievable it was 8-5 with 2 outs, 2-2 count, bottom of the 7th. Holy shit. the pass ball then base hit seemed meaningless at the time. had Perez 0-2 as well. Wow. Edited May 26, 20241 yr by troph

May 26, 20241 yr 3 hours ago, troph said: I agree the field is too small - I don’t think as many fly balls should be automatic outs either, i think poorly hit balls should be more opportunities for double plays. I also think they can handle 9 innings. I have the same view about tennis, wtf men grand slams are 5 sets and women stay at 3 (men at at 3 for most other tournaments). And while we are at it, make the ball smaller, raise the mound, and pitch overhand. 🤷🏻♀️
May 26, 20241 yr Has it been explained why blowu has like 4 days of extra rest (why did their supers start early)?

May 26, 20241 yr I vaguely recall there being a segment on a local station where they had Cat pitch to the baseball team’s best power hitter at the time. I don’t remember who got the better of it, but I do recall that it got me to watch the evening news.

May 26, 20241 yr Can we put just one dominant performance together and not fuck around with these aggy?
May 26, 20241 yr Author Goode in. Stewie moved down. Good call to have Joley protecting Reese. Take some pressure of the frosh
