Ga State (Away) - Tuesday

[FredJacket]

Keep rolling. Need a solid midweek performance top to bottom .... left to right.

No. 17 Jackets Head to Georgia State for Crosstown Matchup

We need some of that "thread discipline" folks... the old Ga State (1st game) thread is getting some activity & could lead folks to believe this week's game maybe being played on Wed. Not so.

TUESDAY at 6pm.

 

[GTNavyNuke]

Yeah, I stopped doing the game lead off posts since we didn't do well in a game. Since then, things have gone really south, like Patagonia south.

Anyway, GA State is awful. 10-27 overall and 128 rpi. https://www.warrennolan.com/baseball/2021/schedule/Georgia-State

I might be a little bit upset if we don't crush them and use 5-8 pitchers for practice.

They started off pretty hot. They must have hit a hump like we did.

Sorry, that was me.
I figured someone would have started another already so I recycled.

I would trust people would follow that was then and this is now especially as we're talking about this week vs back at the a$$-kicking

No apology necessary.... & perhaps you're correct.

This is probably a good time for me to say... I don't need to be the thread starter. I do it when I'm here & notice but I do it so often, I get feeling others are hesitant.

@GTNavyNuke has his own whack-a-doo reasons he will (or won't) initiate a thread. The hexy jinxters get in his head.

 

[GTNavyNuke]

....... The hexy jinxters get in his head.

Then we won't talk about those here who think Wiley can influence the games. I know he does jinx us , but there are others who say the same thing ..........

Nonetheless, our record when I introduce the post is probably better than those after me

We just need to find a way to appease the Baseball Gods to get out of this slump.

I just ordered this book to figure out how

You all will be happy to learn I've discovered who the jinxed poster is and the bane of our existence. Navy if I am looking right only posted the game schedule thread for Mercer, which we won. So he's undefeated. Fred posted all the rest except one - Virginia, which I posted.

Notice the Virginia series? That was when we were still hot and playing well through early April. But we lost that series 1-2. Furthermore, the one game we won, we won 6-5 so we were nearly swept. We then lost to USC Upstate, lost the series against Notre Dame and barely won 1 game, and lost to Auburn.

If I could ask anything, I'd ask the mods to kindly delete my Virginia series thread. We won't miss it at this point, and it might be good juju karma in the universe for us going forward.

Rest assured I will not create any new baseball threads this season.

I don't want to hear anymore complaints about coaching, fielding, pitching... let's focus on the real problem.... the knuckleheads posting here.

DBo on pitching this weekend and this week

 

[GTNavyNuke]

Any word on Hurter? Key going forward.

Most teams unfortunately lose important pitchers. We've already lost Finley. Hope that's all.

Nice outing...on to F$U!!

 

[THWG]

Really good win tonight. The pitchers were great and it was especially nice to see Medich and Huff pitch that way. If they both keep pitching like that, then we could make a real run here at the end.

 

[MWBATL]

We finally play a game where we have no errors and only 4 walks allowed.

YAY!

 

[GTNavyNuke]

Nice workmanlike win.

Plate discipline - 4.4 pitches per AB for us. Only 6 hits but 8 BBs and 1 HBP.

No errors for us (Malloy's original error was changed to a GSU hit.) But GSU had 3 errors which gave us 3 unearned runs. Plus a lot of wild bitches.

Pitching really good by Medich and Huff. Use used 4 pitchers and GSU used 8. We got through to 2 of them.

Very fortunate in B4 that GS didn't score. 1 out SO with bases loaded was massive. After two HBP ....... and a wild pitch (which I guess is a HBP that misses the batter). Wiley noted we were lucky that it was a HBP or the runner at third would have scored.

Sounds like quite an experience if you were to be in attendance.

Yes... one of the stranger innings you'd see in a baseball game. GSU should have scored multiple runs in this inning. Wiley was correct... Pearson was hit (barely glazed him) by a pitch bound for the backstop. ...the runner on 3rd could not advance since it hit the batter. Then with bases loaded... Jones sizzles his "single" directly into the foot of the baserunner off from 1st. It was bound for RF and 2 would have scored easily. Note: So... the kid (Pearson) gets hit by the ball TWICE in the inning costing his team runs. LOL.

I am glad somebody explained what happened....reading the play by play, I was totally confused.

Yes... and other experts on scoring can correct me if I'm wrong... but Compton gets credited with the putout on the ball that hit the baserunner (closest player to the ball?) ... @GTNavyNuke will love this part. So... Compton improves his fielding % by never touching the baseball. Isn't baseball beautiful!
