HE'S BAAAAAAAAACK!! We'll be getting an even more focused opponent in Vandy tonight as they are trying to play themselves into a hosting spot. Ross gets the start and Ott is waiting in the pen. When CPM brought Bert in, he sent a very clear signal that Ott has slipped in the pecking order of the bullpen. Maybe that will be the motivation he needs to get things going again. For the locals, today's TV coverage is entirely on Cox Sports. No announced pitcher for vandy yet.
Mahtook with a single Hanover grounds to 1st, Mahtook advances to 2nd. 1 out Dean with an RBI single, LSU up 1-0 Gibbs grounds out, Dean advances to 2nd. 2 outs Nola with a solid hit, Dean scores! Nola makes it to 2nd. Landry with a single, Nola scores! LSU up 3-0 Landry steals 2nd Gaudet out on strikes Another good start! :geaux:
Ross with a decent start, working on 3 up, 3 down until batter #3 HBP Westlake walked on 4 pitches, then the batter #5 grounds out to retire the side LSU 3 - Vandy 0 after one
Edward strikes out, catcher throws to first to finish it off Katz out on a called strike 3 Mahtook hits it deep, but is out #3 in the top of the 2nd
Ross k's the first batter 2nd batter w/ a solid double Next batter gets a single off of Edward at 3rd, run scores Next batter hits a deep HR to right :/ Game tied at 3 Ross takes the batter to a full count and gets a few more fouled. Strike 3 on a high fast ball, 2 outs 3rd K of the inning ends it Ross is looking OK, but giving up the HR sucked. Tied at 3 after two.
My cousin from B'ham just called me. He is sitting behind the pitcher. Wish I were with him. Too bad I can't get it on TV.
Hanover out on a pop to CF Dean with a good hit, tries to stretch it and is thrown out at 2nd, 2 outs Gibbs goes yard! LSU back up, 4-3! Nola pops up to 1st, 3 outs Vandy 3 up, 3 down but the last out was a deep one. LSU up 4-3 after three I'm not a pbp guy and I'm already missing stuff. Time to crank the radio and try to get some stuff done in the background... :geaux:
