Baseball vs USF, Tue 5/7, 6:30 pm

Did too!

 

Thanks Gal..
Always appreciate you

 

Did not!

 

Needed this one. Hope we get some luck against UK. Go Gators!

 

Well pitched game, only the HR, gave up 5 hits and only 3 walks. Hoping for more of the same from the pitchers this weekend.

 

I know that Neely wants to be a weekend starter but he is so good as a closer.

 

Sully said tonight Neely is moving back to closer

 

Rich "Goose" Gossage started out as a starting pitcher in MLB and became a great closer and is in the HOF for his exploits as a closer.

Not that Neely is another Gossage but sometimes the path to greatness is not what you think it is. I am sure that Gossage wanted to be a starting pitcher but that wasn't his path.

And he had a wicked amount of armside break and sink on his two seamer.

 

A must win that they got. I didn't watch the game, but seems like great pitching tonight. Now we need to figure out a way to win at least 2 vs. Kentucky.

 

Actually some really good D backed up the great pitching.

 

We should have done that in basketball but only got the split.

We used to own them in football but no longer.

Time to start owning them in baseball.

 

Good win

- excellent pitching tonight and no Coppola.
- seeing Clemente and Neely late very interesting.
- hitters did enough. Very encouraged with Shelnut with bunt and oppo double.

Weekend Rotation:

Guessing
Pierce
Liam
Jac

Question is how do you effectively utilize Clemente for best usage? Could easily be a starter. Love to see him as a 2 inning opener Friday and then be used again Sunday in long relief or to set up Neely.

 

Glad Sully remembered to tell the pitchers to give up fewer runs in a midweek game. He clearly wasn't doing that earlier in the season.
