Baseball vs MS State, Sat 3/30, 6:30 pm

There ae two kinds of fans: those that leave early and those that stay for the whole game.

 

Does Cijntje really have a custom Rawlings glove?

 

Tell me, when you type that, do you sound it out in your head? I had to look this one up because MSU doesn't have those cool pronunciation guides like we do for guys like Will Richard.



Maybe we should just call 'em "Earl."

Go GATORS!
,WESGATORS

 

I just see that and think about H P Lovecraft and Cthulhu.

And then I think about people that vote for the lesser evil when they could vote for Cthulhu instead.

 

Some leave early every game, no matter the score.
I always stay to the last out, even if we’re getting whipped.

 

Reunion of players from the '80s at the Dugout Club tailgate, near Gate 1. All Gator fans welcome to stop by and try to tell the difference between elderly former players and elderly fans.

 

I watched every bit of it, always do. Didn’t want to get my hopes up too much after the 8th.

 

Will @wingtee be there directing everybody so those young fellas get to the right place?

 

I saw a video about his glove—it’s basically got a thumb on each end instead of a little finger. That’s the best way I can describe it.

 

Let's go Gators! Get that series dubya today.

 

He briefly shows it @ about 50 seconds into this video:

I'm pretty sure most Gators will just call him Earl!!

 

What are the rules when he faces a switch hitter?

 

Pretty sure that whichever way they start the AB (Earl & hitter) they have to remain the entire AB.

 

Yea, I looked it up when Armstrong signed with us several years ago. The pitcher has to declare before the at bat. A pinch hitter can be input after he declares and he can’t change. A switch hitter can actually change sides during the at bat. I found all of that interesting, lol.

 

I think that is correct that the pitcher declares first and then the batter chooses. If you let them change at will the at bat would never see a first pitch as they change back and forth ad infinitum.

 

Did not type it. I used copy/paste.

 

It is, unless it’s changed since we signed Armstrong. I found it more interesting that the hitter can actually move back and forth if they want. They can take each pitch from a different box.
