USC-Upstate - Tuesday 6pm

[FredJacket]

First midweek game in quite awhile.

The Spartans are 18-6. They started off season 11-0. Their biggest win was over Clemson during that stretch.

Our fielding has got to get wayyy better.

Thought I would take a stab here and see if any GT Season Ticket holders have 3 tickets for tomorrow's game they would be willing to sell. Taking our youngest son up tomorrow to tour the campus on Wednesday now that he has been accepted. Thought we could take him to a game as well. Unfortunately all that is available are season tickets. TIA.

I really hope he has a good one. We are going to need him down the stretch.

Going to the mountains now and will miss the game. If we win, maybe I'll need to section hike the AT till the end of the baseball season (another hope that won't happen )

SC Upstate has RPI of 37 and we have one of 69. So this isn't a gimme by any means. http://warrennolan.com/baseball/2021/rpi-live

Enjoy your hike. I just peeked out of the woods for a moment, and it’s great out here.

(I don’t see a reason that our fielding would improve, unless we’ve been going through a spell of bad luck and we’re secretly better than we’ve been showing.)

 

[eokerholm]

fingers crossed. I'll check in but C is pitching tonight 7:30 so I can't burn my battery when at at ball field

DBo's turn at the soundcloud. Find the good, address the bad and be supportive.
Positive and upbeat!
Looking to keep Cort available for the weekend. 3 innings, 55-60 pitches....

If you haven't yet, don't look at the score. Just know that we have a higher ranked Notre Dame team coming up this weekend. Short memory. LFG!

Hey @eokerholm , can your son suit up this weekend? We could really use his pitching the rest of the season. I would say he has a great Chance to come in and get mound time based on our current roster/pitching output.

Was happy to see Brown, Huff, and Siegel all pitch well. Anderson needs to be the DH too. That dude can absolutely rake.

Haven’t heard an update on Colin. What is the latest on his health. Just wondering

Thank you. I wish.
I'm pretty sure we'll be seeing Christian, Logan and Aeden next year on the bump. I think you'll like what the bullpen can do next year.
