Ball State at Kentucky (Game 1)

[TuckyFB]

And why the hell did we pinch hit just to bunt?

I guess for a fresh pair of legs at catcher if this goes to extra innings

 

[TuckyFB]

Liebert strikes out.

Still a weird decision.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Wow that was middle middle fastball. Not sure what Grace was waiting for on thar 2-1 pitch.

 

[TuckyFB]

Bases loaded... HAVE to do something.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Got the walk. Bases loaded for Schultz.

 

[KYExtemper]

What a tease...

 

[Comebakatz3]

Ohh man... Schultz gave it a ride and it's caught at the warning track.

 

[TuckyFB]

I thought he had it... Dammit.

 

[Aday117]

Gave it a ride at least

 

[Comebakatz3]

Not going to get many more breaks than that in a game.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Looks like Schultz at 2nd maybe? Cant tell who is in left.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Grace at SS. Maybe its Liebert in left? I can't tell.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Ramsey looking much better.

 

[TuckyFB]

Nice response by Ramsey

 

[Comebakatz3]

Ramsey strikes out the side!

Btws... Shelby came in to play left.

 

[cats1068]

Ramsey looking much better.

Lights out this inning 🔥🔥🔥

 

[TuckyFB]

John Rhodes pops out...

 

[Comebakatz3]

Rhodes got under one and popped out.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Collett was absolutely fooled by that first pitch curve. It buckled his front leg. He's taking his time up there. Walking around behind the ump after most foul offs.

Good at bat... ohh man he got one that was hanging but he was in front and under it. Foul. Whew....

 

[Comebakatz3]

Wow. Umpire called a strike that was absolutely unhittable. High and outside. No way that's a strike.

 

[TuckyFB]

Deserved to lose this one. Too many mistakes.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Anu strikes out to end the game. Not a good effort by UK at the plate. 11 LOB. A ton of strikeouts.

 

[KYExtemper]

Too many strikeouts today. But we blew our chance to tie it in the 8th after Ball State gifted us the runner in scoring position with zero outs.

 

[micatz]

Fearsome line up they said😂😂. Gonna make noise.... awful

 

[Comebakatz3]

16 strikeouts. 😂😢

 

[TuckyFB]

11 LOB and 16 Strikeouts... Absolutely terrible.

 

[cats1068]

I knew the K king 👑 👑 of 5 and 28 would do their thing. The PH of 25 just to bunt is beyond me. WTH 🤦‍♂️

 

[TuckyFB]

Game 2 is tomorrow at 1 PM... Let's see if powerhouse Ball St doesn't eat our lunch again

 

[Aday117]

Need to bounce back and win the next two. Not a lot of good things today other than starting pitching. Bats need to wake up badly.

 

[Comebakatz3]

At least we're not LSU... they lost 22-7 to Oral Roberts.

 

[Tskware]

It is just one game, no one wins them all, even in non conference. And so far our pitching has been better than I expected. But . . . to lose the series to Ball State right after a highly questionable five year extension would be a bad look, to say the least.
