March 28, 20241 yr Big chance for a RPI move if we win this series. RPI formula loves wins away from home (which we have only done twice this year). Looking at Warren Nolan a win tonight is worth 101 RPI points, which would bump us up almost 10-12 spots with a single victory (pending movement from other teams). So a series win would have us moving upwards 20-25 spots which is a huge jump. I typically ignore RPI until around mid-April when a lot of the outliers have fallen back to the pack and teams have 4-5 conference series under their belt, but road series always create the possibility for a lot of movement.

March 28, 20241 yr Both these TV-broadcasters for this game are mouth-breathers. I wonder how quickly I go to the radio call.
March 28, 20241 yr Flores was the only person who even hit a ball so far -- for a homer-- 1st 2 outs were swinging strikeouts who never even fouled the ball.

March 28, 20241 yr Belyeu probably hit his single harder than Flores hit his HR LBJ gets a pick off and tosses a scoreless first.
March 28, 20241 yr Shit pitcher doesn't look as confident as he did after Powell struck out in the 1st.
March 28, 20241 yr Just now, zlavydra said: Shit pitcher doesn't look as confident as he did after Powell struck out in the 1st. Was coming to post same.
March 28, 20241 yr 3-0 lead and behind in the count to first two batters.....both now on 2nd/3rd with no outs😡
March 28, 20241 yr Throwing sliders off the plate early in counts to the most disciplined team in the Big 12 is certainly an interesting game plan
March 28, 20241 yr You don't want to throw strikes to a guy who starred at directional New Hampshire.
March 28, 20241 yr 1 minute ago, UnhappilyMarried said: Pierce’s buyout should be net of what he cost LBJ in draft $ You know Lebarron is the one with the ball in his hands right. Young man is costing himself money, zero confidence in his pitches
March 28, 20241 yr "All four Wildcats who have reached have come to the plate and driven in a run." Ok...
March 28, 20241 yr 3 minutes ago, UnhappilyMarried said: Pierce’s buyout should be net of what he cost LBJ in draft $ He’s a reliever at the next level. Probably why he came back in the first place. Teams aren’t paying premium bonuses for reliever profiles. Teams don’t chase his slider like they did last year so he struggles to put guys away.
