Kentucky v Auburn (Tournament Edition)

[Comebakatz3]

Scary spot here still with a runner on first. Guilfoil going to come in to pitch in the middle of the count.

 

[dtjr]

Tried to get too cute terrible full count pitch

Stupid
why not walk him

 

[mrschwump]

Why the hell did we pitch to him?

Old baseball axion: Never put the tying/winning run on intentionally. At least that's what the infamous "Book" says.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Stolen base puts them into scoring position

 

[Comebakatz3]

Guilfoil gets the K and we go to the 9th.

 

[sluggercatfan]

After Harriss lollygagging to first, the stupid bunt and not putting in Guilfoil instead of Harper. Sign for disaster. Should easily be up 3-0.

 

[dtjr]

Guilfoil gets the K and we go to the 9th.

You feel awful for Harney
We should have more runs and awful baseball yet again spearheaded by our head coach.

 

[TuckyFB]

ANUUUUU

 

[KYHasATimeoutIfTheyWannaUseIt]

Bye-bye bay-bawl!

 

[KYHasATimeoutIfTheyWannaUseIt]

Bye-bye another bay-bawl!

 

[Comebakatz3]

Anu homer gives UK 2-1 lead.

 

[TuckyFB]

2 hr in row!!!

 

[CB3UK]

BOOOOOOOM!!!! ORAJ ANU!!!!!! Cats take 2-1 lead in the 9th! LFG!!!

 

[TuckyFB]

Fogel!!!

 

[Comebakatz3]

Fogel with another. Bad idea to leave that pitcher in.

 

[sluggercatfan]

Back to back!!

 

[dtjr]

Unbelievable

 

[Basil Cat]

What an answer !!!!

 

[Comebakatz3]

Those two home runs likely save Mingione's job for another year.

 

[SeanCain]

Cats with two tape measure shots. Very nice.

Games not over CB3

 

[CockyCat3]

Anyone know if Burkes is starting because he's played well, or if Rubalcaba is injured?

He is playing because he has been hitting and he is framing the ball better than Caba right now

 

[Comebakatz3]

Wow... 2 on no one out for Auburn. Had that guy dead and hit him. Roszel going to talk to him.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Do you bunt here knowing Plastiak has done that thing to you already?

 

[Comebakatz3]

They tried to and Guilfoil strikes him out instead.

 

[TuckyFB]

Great win

 

[Comebakatz3]

Cats win 3-1

 

[CB3UK]

Hell yes boys! Cats win!! LSU you're next

 

[catzfanjim]

2 monster shots in the top of the 9th in a big ballpark.
GO BIG BLUE

Interesting, a 12 seed has never won an SEC tournament game. Anu makes a statement in post game interview. “We are better than our record.” I agree with that. Hope we continue to prove it.

 

[Tskware]

Pitching has really come around these last few weeks, especially against Auburn and UT

 

[Aday117]

Gutsy win have to give them credit. Harney put the team on his back today and two clutch bombs to win it. Beat lsu and things get interesting.

 

[Comebakatz3]

That puts UK at 51 in RPI. Alabama at 44.

Interesting fact. I wasn’t aware of that.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Interesting fact. I wasn’t aware of that.

First time we had 12 was 2013... so 8 games.

 

[Mulder14]

CB3 will 1 more win get us in? Or do we have to do more

 

[Comebakatz3]

Ohh and to add... 4 of them were 1 run games, 3 were 2 run games and 1 was 3 runs.

I don't think 1 more is enough. I think it takes 2 more IMO. But that also depends on what Alabama does. If they keep winning it makes it harder for us to get in.

Quick thoughts:

-GUtty win. Lots of opportunity to hang our heads after the HR bomb by Aubie, but come right back out and get two HR to go back up and grab the win (and avoid extras).
-Harney has been great this year. Wonderful performance today, too bad he didn't get the deserved W.
-Danny Harris drives me insane and cost us at least 2 runs today (loafing on what should have been a single to right field and then gets thrown out at the plate). Also failed to get a bunt down that got jump thrown out at third.
-I hate that we had to use Guilfoil today. It really reduces our chances of winning the next game.
-LSU is beatable. Not sure I want to see UT again, but we can win the LSU game.
-Who starts the next game? Bosma? Moore?
