Game tomorrow at 4ET.

I mean it's baseball and stupid stuff like this happens, but man did we pick a terrible time for our bats to go ice cold. Better hope they wake up tomorrow cuz our pitching staff ain't deep.

Truth be told, if we lose 2/2 to Bethune..do we really want to go to Omaha? We'll be fine. The boys will come out with a chip tomorrow and Bethune just won their championship. Harvath/ Milchin show on the mound. Baker is another option but not trusted

Bethune had a hell of a day, I don't expect a repeat tomorrow. They'll be on fumes.

Idk, I thought they'd be on fumes tonight. Sully doesn't trust any pitchers outside of our starting 3 and Byrne. If we don't score 8+ runs, I think we are in trouble.

We lose two to them and Sully should be shown the door immediately.

That being said, if we win Monday, Wake Forest will embarrass us next weekend.

Well Gee you fire a coach for loosing two games? Seems like an over reaction to me.

Our bats have been cold all year. These guys were worried more about where they were going to get drafted than their batting averages.

The looser we are, the less we lose.

Our bats were cold at beginning of the season, towards the middle and end we were killing the ball. Not sure I agree with your assessment here

We ranked 198th in batting average and 100th in runs scored this season, kind of matches up with our football offenses the last 8 years.

100th out of 300 isn't really that bad. I'd gladly take our football team having a top 35 offense.

We had been swinging the bat well the last half of the season, go back and look if you want.

Everybody needs to calm down. This team has shown an incredible amount of resiliency in these situations. Remember two weeks ago our ace Faedo getting shelled by KY in game one of the last weekend. We came back and drilled them to win the series and claim the crown, winning 21 of our last 26 SEC games.

There's no way Sully should be fired if we lose tonight. That's absurd.

Starting a Freshman pitcher in his first career start in a do or die game...

By coin flip, Gators are "visitors" and batting first.

Has Singer been the DH before today?

 

[g8tr72]

It will be a miracle if this game is not delayed by rain at some point.

Bold strategy, Cotton.

The top of the 1st was quite disappointing.

2 on with no out, JJ hits into a DP and then Maldy flies out.
