Stupid call trying to bunt with two strikes
Kerr Vance Academy baby!
Blue gave big boy ball four after calling that a strike all night long
Might not of been a strike in the book but it had been called a strike all nightYep, we won that game a batter before we actually won it.
Grew up in Henderson.I coached there for 12 years, his dad took over when I left. Love it!

Coin flip for game three.What a game! Did anyone hear what rule made LSU the home team?
For once in a blue moon we got a fan friendly super regional schedule!!!!
That right there is why you should be most wary fans/alums of certain schools. My wife is an Ole Miss grad, and she oulw never think of hinting that I should tine down support for UNC should theHeel play the Rebs.My Louisiana-born wife (who bleeds purple and gold) and I reached an agreement 34 years ago. In an LSU/UNC match-up in football - it's Geaux Tigers! In basketball, it's Go Heels!!.
That agreement has served us well...but baseball had us flummoxed. To add to the problem, her little sister and several other family members were visiting. Some went to Bosh Saturday to catch the games. At the end of last night's game this was me sitting on the couch:
...and on the inside:
I hope everything is ok and will say some prayers for the situation!!I had a major family medical emergency yesterday afternoon and did not see a single play. I know what I missed.
Now time for business to get to Omaha.
Small world, my middle daughter just finished her sophomore year in Oxford!!!That right there is why you should be most wary fans/alums of certain schools. My wife is an Ole Miss grad, and she oulw never think of hinting that I should tine down support for UNC should theHeel play the Rebs.
You see the result too. Use the third strike more effectively. You had two chances to bunt and couldn’t and really didn’t look good at it so abort and swing away.Couldn't disagree more, I loved it, he was an inch from being a hero in the 9th instead of the 10th. When I was coaching I did it all the time, you have a job to do and you have 3 pitches to do it.

I would think he had dumb luck. He could have just as easily won by getting a base hit with two strikes, which is much more low risk than bunting with two strikes.I’ll agree to disagree
But I’ll add that it may vary given the situation. In that case I think bunting with 2 strikes was the right call. If that ball hits 3rd base & everybody is safe then you’ld think Forbes was a genius.
It truly is a very nice campus. Nice town overall. A good place to be an undergrad. I'd pick it over any other SEC school for those things.I hope everything is ok and will say some prayers for the situation!!

Yes, now it all has been brought under control again. But you know how cancer is: crisis today that we 'heal' only for it to be back within a few years in a new form. All health issues are like that. Because we are mortal we can never truly cure; we just can delay and make quality of life better than it would be otherwise. So we better be certain to do what we should for those in our lives. We not be able to do anything tomorrow or next week.I hope everything is ok and will say some prayers for the situation!!

If UNC is playing LSU in football, I'm mostly hoping we don't have somebody get killed.That right there is why you should be most wary fans/alums of certain schools.

If if if yes if it had hit the base both player and coach would look like geniuses but you can use your last strike so much better. Even if you foul off a few pitches at least you give yourself a chance to do better.I’ll agree to disagree
