UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For all of us 50 fans that stayed thru the rain and until the end, what a finish. Ocala summed it up and we could not get over the hump until the very end. Butler played 1B, Calilao was in RF and Kirby Mac was the DH. No Nelly, No Dalton. In the 7th inning right before the rains came, the wind shifted dramatically from blowing in from LF to howling out to LF. So in the 9th, Sully sends Jonah Girand up to pinch hit, you know "Mr." it is either a HR or strikeout, LOL. Well he uncorks one down the line, well foul, but would have hit the Odome if fair. So he struck out followed by McConnell striking out. then 2 guys reach and Butler, who homered to left in the 1st inning, laced one over the scoreboard in RF. but here is the kicker. After the USCe pitcher walked Calilao to put 2 runners on, the USCe coach came out and asked the home plate umpire to have the grounds crew spread sand on the mound. Apparently the pitcher was having footing issues. So thank you to the grounds crew b/c 5 minutes and a bucket of sand later, the "Butler" delivered!!!!!!
Huge wins but boy does this team have issues in all phases. Needed a sweep but 2 of 3 beats the alternative before having to travel to the "BOX" next weekend at LSU.
