Appalachian State at Kentucky (Sat)

[Old_Red]

Rhodes gets another error. We'll probably maintain our stranglehold on last place in SEC fielding at the end of this weekend.

 

[Old_Red]

Bloop fly single for Elliot Curtis shows the advantage of our deep centerfield.

 

[Old_Red]

Another bloop fly single by Collett and then a deeper sacrifice fly scores a run.

 

[Old_Red]

Harmon cranks a 3 run blast.

 

[Old_Red]

Two big innings for the Cats. Can we finally have some confident? Would be great.

 

[Old_Red]

17-4 going into the 6th.

 

[Old_Red]

Zach Lee doing well in relief two innings, one hit and 4 SO's.

 

[Old_Red]

Zack Lee gets two ground outs, a walk and a balk followed by a fly out.

 

[Old_Red]

10 strikeouts for Cats pitching through 7 innings but we have far too many give me plays. Two balks, a WP, and 1 HBP.

 

[Old_Red]

Is Cam Hill hurt? He hasn't played at all today.

 

[Old_Red]

Daniel singles in Curtis to make it 18-4.

 

[Old_Red]

Cam Hill pinch hits and gets plunked again to load the bases.

 

[Old_Red]

Holen gets plunked to push in a run to make it 19-4.

 

[Old_Red]

Lewis scores as Shelby hits a fielder's choice and Holen is out.

 

[Old_Red]

Ha! Estep gets so excited in getting his first hit that he's out at 2nd trying to stretch a single into a double. We get one more to make it 21-4.

 

[Old_Red]

Gambino getting to pitch the 8th.

**** edit I was an inning ahead of myself.

 

[Old_Red]

The shadow is now across the plate. Should help Gambino. Three ground outs and to the bottom of the 8th.

 

[Old_Red]

Golda gets hit for the 3rd time in this game.

 

[Old_Red]

Ron Cole is in to close it out. We batted .382 today. Should help a lot of players.

 

[Old_Red]

Cole closes it out I think with 3 strike outs. Appears to know to throw strikes with a 17 run lead.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Kind of surprised Daniels hasn't played more.

 

[Old_Red]

Kind of surprised Daniels hasn't played more.

Cole Daniels? He's had 2 appearances

 

[Comebakatz3]

Cole Daniels? He's had 2 appearances

They leaned on him heavily a year ago. Doesn't seem as much this year.

 

[Old_Red]

They leaned on him heavily a year ago. Doesn't seem as much this year.

Could be that we haven't really had a close game where we needed him. Either we are getting blown out or blowing out the other team.

I'm not sure it is all Kessler, but the SB plays haven't been that close. At least, the ones I saw. Neither one was close today, but the first one was a pitch down and in so was pretty difficult.

The ones I have seen are largely on the pitchers. Runners are taking massive leads.
