GT vs The Camels

Ok, here’s your game thread.

I am curious how everyone is feeling about the opening game tomorrow, sans gold colored classes.

Me? Not to good.

 

[Northeast Stinger]

It’s a brand new season. So there’s that.

16-14 win

 

[CINCYMETJACKET]

We've wreaked some havoc on some really good pitchers this year. So I think we can hit most of the guys they'll throw out there. We just need our pitchers to be average. Can we do that? I hope so.

Team is 7-1 over the last 8 games. That type of run repeated wins the regional.

I believe 7-1 gets us into the College World Series from here.

I believe 7-1 gets us into the College World Series from here.

And I believe it also gives us at least 1 win, if not 2 in the CWS, depending on when that loss happens.

Love the optimism. Despise negas even when they have a valid comment. Will be watching tomorrow at noon. Do y'all post during games? It's kinda hard for me bc of where my PC and TV are set up. I'm usually terse. Like I said before, I don't know much about rules, calls, or stats. I just really enjoy watching the game! Go Jackets!

We are seeded ahead of Campbell for good reasons. So I voted yes.

I think we would easily win a 7 game series against them. But anything can happen in one game or in one inning, as we saw against Pitt when we failed to beat them 4 in a row.

Agreed, I'm confident we would win a larger series. The problem with this matchup is we're going to see their ace today. I'm less concerned with the depth after that.

Hoping our guys can put together some good at bats, drive up the pitch count, and get to the bullpen.

Vegas has Campbell as the favorites for this one - with a game total of 14.5 - the highest of any game on the slate today. They really don't trust our pitching (can't blame them)

I cant watch this anywhere??

It's on ESPN+. Top 2 good guys losing 2-0, they are playing the waiting game with Medich and forcing him to throw a lot of pitches. Already 2 at-bats with 9+ pitches.

Consider yourself lucky.

 

[LargeFO]

I texted my dad 2-0 and he was like I’m not gonna follow it. He’s been pretty dedicated since Jim Morris was coach. Danny apathy bee real.

 

[Buzzbomb]

Bombs away. Medich doesn’t have it.

 

[GTRambler]

Well, like I opined prior to the start of the season, our team had to have good pitching overall as a staff, in order to contend at tournament time at the end of the year.

Good pitching beats good hitting, most of the time. It has always been so.

Only hope is for the team to overcome its poor pitching with good hitting — and out-scoring the opposition, which it has done at times during the regular season.

The team has indeed done well to reach any Regional as a number 2 seed. But realistically, the odds are stacked against it in this postseason play.

I think our Jackets will do well enough to go 1-2 in the Knoxville Regional, and hopefully get better pitching next year.

 

[TampaBuzz]

Looks the pitched has settled down for now. Getting single runs in consecutive innings is getting us closer, but we need an inning or two where we put up some crooked numbers. Let's go Bees

 

[Golden Tornadoes]

Anybody got the scouting report on Alabama State?
