#26 Jackets travels to #23 Clemson

[65Jacket]

This team, to be such a good defensive team, makes more errors than I can imagine. No way we will score on their closer, he leads the NCAA in ERA, given up zero at home this year. Just a blown chance to do something in what is turning into a blown season.

Yeah, Peurifoy was coming in on the fly ball, slipped on he grass and fell to his knees and still the ball actually hit in his glove but dropped out. They scored one on that, then a HBP, triple, single later it was all tied up.

Well like I said, that is some voo doo back luck bull****. The lightning delay hurts us too as I doubt we'll throw Gorst out there after the long delay.

Some are just mental..while some are just bad luck/timing to complete the "bad luck" with this team.

Like a soapbox series..turn-in-tomorrow.

 

[Stinger90]

Play will resume at 4 p.m. Saturday. The second game will begin at the regularly scheduled time of 6:30 p.m.

So, after Kel's leadoff HR and CU's 3up, 3down bottom, we have to wait 2 hours for the second game. I blame Swofford for this!

Him and D-Rad.

When game 1 resumes, would be a brutal if Tech loses to Clemson. Led 7-2, top 7, and had bases loaded, 0 out. Just saying..

Also, I'm surprised that no one has commented on the fail bunt. @Squints The rally immediately dies

I have been incorrectly saying we are a good defensive team. Checking NCAA stats, our fielding % is 142 in the NCAA (as of 4/21). Better than a month ago when we were 190th. We do turn a lot of double plays with Justus and Bailey. But Bailey has 11 errors, Justus 10, Craport 6 and Gonzo 4. I would think that Craport is probably the worst fielder based on % of errors to plays.

Some are just mental..while some are just bad luck/timing to complete the "bad luck" with this team.

Luck affects a game or two. We are -1 in ACC play so far so that shows we aren't consistently good. If we lose this one today, it will rival our most painful game of the year where we lost 13-14 to Duke.

After today we'll be between -3 and +1 to 500 in ACC play. Massive difference on odds of getting into the ACC tourney with Miami and UVa coming up. I expect we'll win one of three from Clemson. Winning the series would be great.

Sucks. Didn't work the Clemson pitcher for many pitches, and three long fly outs.

Going for the win with Gorst .... he walks lead off batter. But Justus turns the DP. Double, wild pitch and with runner on third .........

 

[GTNavyNuke]

Just lost. Didn't deserve to win.

 

[crl85]

Very disappointing season after our start.

[Stinger90]

Done pouting.

Jackets lead 6-1 T3

 

[Stinger90]

Peurifoy hit strengths to 2nd with 2 outs

 

[Stinger90]

Justus walks but nothing doing for the Jackets stranding two. B3 6-1

Parr comes in for Pitts.

 

[Stinger90]

Parr keeps Clemson at bay. T4 Jackets 6-1

 

[Stinger90]

Gonzo with a base hit, 16 hits for him 0 outs

 

[Stinger90]

Gonzo advances to 3rd and English at 1st with 1 out

 

[Stinger90]

Error on the third basemen and Gonzo scores 7-1 with 1 out

Bart gets the RBI fielder's choice
