A look at all of today’s action

 

[ohio tarheels]

It’s win or go home time!!!

 

[ohio tarheels]

Indiana St scored 3 in the bottom of the 8th to pull out a 6-5 win over Wright St

Indiana St scored 3 in the bottom of the 8th to pull out a 6-5 win over Wright St

It's a winnable region for the Tar Heels. But just s easily as win it, they could lose their first 2 games.

[WoadBlue]

Other than in Little League, I have never seen a pitcher throw back to back pitches that go just over the head of a ducking batter.

 

[WoadBlue]

3 pitch strike out to open Knapp's game on mound.

 

[WoadBlue]

Knapp gives up 2 run double with 2 outs.

 

[WoadBlue]

Alvarez opens top of 2nd with infield single, which the 2nd baseman throws into the dugout, giving Alvarez 2nd base.

 

[WoadBlue]

This game has sickened me for the most part, But here in the bottom of the 9th the team is showing that it does have a pulse.

 

[ohio tarheels]

I got a sickening feeling after giving up 2 in the 8th that the offense would put a couple on the board to no avail

 

[WoadBlue]

What we have now is Iowa leading 5-4. There is 1 out and UNC has runners on 2nd and 3rd.

 

[WoadBlue]

Frick took a called strike 3. 2 outs.

Syoekely then swings at 1st pitch fro strike 1

 

[roadmaster]

Collective failure by the squad. I would have bet on Frick to come through in the ninth. Disappointed that so many of our guys “tightened up”.

 

[roadmaster]

Do you think the field met specifications for an NCAA tournament? Mound rug, no warning tracks, painted synthetic infield. That place looked nasty. Obviously it did pass. Just sour grapes.

 

[roadmaster]

Btw. Went to Conway SC today to see UNCW play Duke. What a spectacular ballpark for Coastal Carolina!

wish he would have bunted with one out and runners on 2nd and 3rd . .. worked against nc state.

You cannot take a third strike there no matter what. If close protect the plate good lord.

 

[sctarheel30]

Long road back and just not sure this team can do with the suspect pitching staff and no Honeycutt

 

[tarheel0910]

Left way too many on the bases. Reoccurring theme this year.

That was the 9 hole hitter who executed the squeeze bunt against State. No way you bunt Frick with the go ahead run in scoring position, especially as hot as his bat has been.
