[quote]I got downvotes in the SEC tournament for saying this. But you have to score there. Third base coach is way too scared[/quote] You absolutely don't send him home in that spot. 2 outs, yes. But you are showing serious ignorance if you think not sending him there was a bad move. ...
[quote]It’s lazy and selfish to go up there and not see a couple there[/quote] Was it lazy and selfish of him to hit the first pitch over the wall against Wake Forest last year? ...

re: Looks like LIU!

[quote]NCarolina still has a bat coming up[/quote] You didn't know that LSU fans determined winners and losers of games at whichever point they desire? They still haven't figured out the whole 9 inning thing yet. ...
Thisseems like you are just a fair weather fan and are using this to try to justify the behavior. ...
[quote]I think I would rather play UNC than Wofford again[/quote] My goodness. Why do our absolute dumbest fans feel the need to put their stupidity on full display and start their own threads? ...
[quote]So just checking to see if the game tomorrow is only on ESPN + ?[/quote] If UNC wins it will probably be on regular cable tv. ...
[quote]So bunting people around the bases and using deep fly balls to score runs from 3rd base is sissy ball, huh? That's called playing the game right, every manager would tell you the same thing[/quote] :lol: It's not 1980 anymore. ...
[quote]This. And they did that when it was 0-0 early in the game no less. They played not to lose and didn’t play to win[/quote] Yeah but the rants 10U teams win tons of rings by bunting 15 times a game, in every situation. College baseball is just a notch above 10U travel ball, so the same thing...
[quote]Or maybe they ground into double plays and give away two outs with nothing to show for it[/quote] Ground into a double play with 0 outs and a lead off double? That's specifically a play I've been talking about. [quote]This thread is about the style of ball that Wofford plays. Bunting i...
[quote]Without small ball would Wofford ever had a lead today?[/quote] Maybe they have a bigger lead. What if the next batter after the lead off double gets a hit? And then you score that run without giving up an out. You can't just play the game if, they only scored because they bunted. This is ...
[quote]Tell that to UCLA[/quote] UCLA has had absolute top notch pitching. Wofford does not. Kentucky tried it and got nowhere. Now the started mixing it in, and they are magically having better success. I'm not saying never ever bunt. Bunt almost never bunt. ...
[quote]Maybe not at the highest level where the talent is higher but in the lower levels like Wofford? Yea it’s a great way to win a lot of games[/quote] It's also a great way to keep a better team, who is having a bad day hitting, in the game.... Like they did today. Bunting a runner from se...
[quote]It’s the triple option of baseball. Old school. Tough and hard to defend[/quote] And will never win shite with it. So yeah, just like the triple option. ...
[quote]So many times we waste lead-off doubles. It was impressive to see them bunt the runner to 3rd, then sac-fly him in[/quote] Bunting a runner over 1 base, who is already in scoring position, isn't usually a good idea. Outs are too valuable in most situations for it to make sense. It will lea...
[quote]For example, bases loaded one out. Intentionally drop 3rd strike, touch home for force out then throw to 1st for double play[/quote] But you can't run on a dropped third strike with the bases loaded and one out. ...
[quote]I get it if there's base runners then you could manipulate a double play, etc[/quote] Explain this a bit further. ...
Can't disagree there. I also don't really get pinch hitting Brown for Pearson. Especially when Bingham is about to walk up to the plate with a bat in his hands. ...
Perfect ranter logic. We didn't hit worth a shite, so our pitcher wasn't good enough. It has to be painful to be this dumb. ...
I only care about one score right now. Dropping a midweek game and pointing to other teams dropping games to shitty teams is fine. We are the only game that matters right now. Who cares what anybody else does if we lose. ...
[quote]Terrible idea. It would just be a bad look for LSU.[/quote] The same people saying this will be the exact same people crying about LSU not having as much money as somebody else. ...
