Two boots on ground balls to third so far . . .
Apr 2, 2019, 7:04 PM

The first was generously scored a hit last inning and didn't cost us.
Top of 4th cost us two runs so far. Can't play sloppy and beat this crowd!!!

He's not doing it on purpose.

Byrd has been terrible in the field this year. He already has 11 errors, and benefited from some generous scoring or he would have some more. His fielding percentage is terrible for a college fielder.

It’s unfortunate because he has to play 3rd. Theres no other place in the lineup for him with Hawkins at 1st.

Defensively, I think Greene . . .

Is our best option, even though he just made a poor throw to first (didn't cost us).
But his hitting is slumping near the .200 level.

It crossed my mind because he’s played there before. If he played there you’d either have to bench Greene or put Greene in LF and Hall at 3rd. Unless Greene can play 3rd but I don’t think so

Why would you keep Greene in the lineup?

That’s a very good ? Lol Just throwing options if monte did want Greene in. If not put Byrd at 2nd, Hall at 3rd and put Henderson back in

Greene is best suited for 2B . . .

When Kier comes back, he'll probably go to LF and Hall will come to 3B . . . Byrd and Hawkins will split time at first and DH . . . This is all a fat boy thinking out loud . . . blah blah blah blah blah

you can scratch splitting time with byrd and Hawkins at first and DH because Davis sharpe has to dh. If you want byrd off of third base you have to put him in at second, Sam Hall at third and open up the outfield for any freshman that monte wants to throw out there like he has all year

Leaving a runner on third with one out . . .

Should never happen without putting the ball in play.
You can't pull an outside curve ball . . . It must be hit to the opposite field.
Yes, this game is frustrating me so far!
Keep grinding Tigers . . . We'll have an inning soon!!!

Loved that Griffith didn't give into the 3 hitter

When he had first base open!!!
Nice substitution by Monte to bring Weatherly in to face DH/Cleanup hitter . . . Weatherly made him look incompetent.
Weatherly' slider is nasty . . . Fastball in the low 90's . . . Good looking arm!!!!!!!
Come on Tigers!!!

Gotta have his bat in the lineup . . .

Monte will figure it out.
Look, I was happy to only give up 5 runs . . . We'll win most games when we get that kind of pitching!!!
Chin up and move to the weekend with confidence!

Nice job by Greene to get the runner in from third . . .

with one out . . . sac a Fly to left . . . works for me!
Let's hold serve and win this thing in the ninth . . . Davidson will lead it off for us

Runners on the corner, top of nine, one out . . .

Down by two . . . Routine grounder to third . . . Do you throw home for the sure out or try for DP?
Easy to second guess . . . Tried for DP . . . Throw to second pulls Greene away from bag, no DP
Down three . . . W/ three outs to win!
