[QUOTE="CINCYMETJACKET, post: 697630, member: 4003"] And I'll comment on the digs to GT baseball... If anyone had watched, or listed to (as I did on WREK) the baseball series against UGA, one would understand that we didn't get "pummeled". Lost 6-5 on Friday at UGA, where they don't lose too often. Faced one of the best college pitchers in the country (some say he will be a high first round pick in the draft, if not 1:1) and we hit him well. Had an error that the UGA score keeper later changed to a "hit" that led to 5 UGA runs. Just couldn't make the plays needed to win game 1. Especially in the last inning. UGA's pitcher in game 2 was lights out. Had him in trouble in the first, but he then retired 14 straight hitters, if I recall correctly. Give credit to him for pitching a great game. All that being said, we were only down 4-0 heading to B8. Walks, an umpire reviewed DP that was overturned that would have ended the inning, more walks, and a grand slam led to an 8 run inning and the 12-0 final score. Not indicative of how closely the game was played. As for Sunday, we cut UGA's lead to 4-3 in the 5th. Another questionable call (based on listening to Wiley and Jim's WREK broadcast of a ball off their pitcher that Guldberg was called out on) allowed UGA to keep the lead. UGA extended their lead, and ended up winning 9-3. Again, not indicative of how close the game was played, in my opinion. Tech baseball is a young team this year, and they didn't take advantage of their opportunities this weekend, hence "getting pummeled" by Georgia according to those that did not watch the games. As for last year, we were a top 8 national seed. Had a lead into the 9th. Our shortstop, who played for USA baseball this year, made an uncharacteristic error. And with one strike to go, our best pitcher (CT) gave up a walk off HR. It's baseball. It happens. I was there. Not Waddell's fault. Not CT's fault. And not Danny Hall's fault. Baseball. [/QUOTE]
