Re: USM @ Mississippi State baseball: game three

Seen lots of criticism on the defense, rightfully so. Just don’t discount the suns impact on those last two plays. I couldn’t follow the damn ball from my family room so I imagine it had some impact on the field.

Hitting streaks, or lack of hitting by some......just 6 games in so I wouldn’t bench or give up on some of these guys that quick. That was easily the best pitching staff we will see all year. They are legit and we showed that this team we have can be special.

Good seeing Purdue getting a win at #14 Texas this weekend as well. We will clean up the mistakes and learn from today. Very excited about this squad.

WDAM is a bunch of goofballs. Doesn't surprise me they'd put that out there.

The E6 grounder? That's some bright ass sun.

My uncle flew one in 'Nam. He doesn't like to talk about it.

Re: USM @ Mississippi State baseball: game three

Leblanc definitely lost one in the sun and you could tell from his reaction that there just wasn't much he could do about it. That said, the sun was shining on both teams, and I don't attribute the end result to that.

I do think that going up to Starkville and coming within one bad throw of taking the series isn't the end of the world. This team is about as good as last year's. They'll hang around in the polls, and in the postseason, but any series against a real contender for Omaha will turn out about like this weekend.

If you're hoping for better than that, the emergence of Och as a decent option at pitcher is probably the best thing I can point to.

Coming soon to a Lamar County billboard near you.

The balls we lost in the sun weren't scored as errors. So without those plays, we still made 7 errors in the series. State made none. It was the difference in the series.

The billboard will likely be about a CUSA championship, which is arguably similar in significance.
