    oh, I don’t disagree as giveaways completely changed the game and we seem to give away a lot… I see many changes that need to be made but some of it is again philosophy as we need to learn to bunt for a hit. Swinging for the fences will cause problems at some point

    We continue to take FB’s over the plate and swing at breaking balls off the plate—that is not anybody’s game plan….

    Hey, be fair. We also swung and missed at plenty of fastballs over the plate too!

    Looking at too manny down the heart fastballs

    behind in the count we pull our front shoulder out which we can’t drive the ball the opp side .

    Non competitive approach with no plan

    2 of the worst hitting teams in the SEC and we showed everyone who was the worst .
