Cats vs Dawgs (Friday Edition)

[Big_Blue_1018]

Gonna be a cold night at the ballpark. First pitch at 6:30. Kentucky needs this series! I’ll post lineups when they get posted.

Georgias lineup

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

Georgia loads the bases in the second but only scores 1. UGA leads 1-0 in the third.

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

Feel like I’m talking to myself……..😂

Georgia gets a lead off double in the 4th but Stupp strikes out two to strand him at third. 1-0 middle of the 4th.

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

UGA hits a two out two run home run. Leads 3-0. Middle of the 5th.

 

[Jeff12wb]

I thought that showed a horrible approach on the mound...

You have 2 outs AND 2 strikes on the hitter. Instead, you worry about the guy on first, make a throwing error to advance him and then give up a bomb. Yikes.

It seems to me that UK has an awful time when it comes to holding/managing the run game.

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

Cats get one back in the bottom of the 5th. 3-1 Dawgs lead.

 

[167Hike]

So Georgia’s starting pitcher is through 5 innings and is only 60 pitches in…….that’s what a Friday night SEC starter looks like.

On the other hand Stupp is approaching 85 pitches in the same time frame. Stupp is a good pitcher but he is not a Friday night guy.

And that’s why we stink

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

Speaking of Stupp.

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

Scores around the SEC:

Florida leads LSU 2-0 B4

South Carolina leads Vandy 7-0 T4

Arkansas and Mizzou are tied at 3 B3

Miss State leads Alabama 1-0 B3

Texas A&M leads Auburn 1-0 B2

Tennessee leads Ole Miss 6-0 T2

 

[CB3UK]

I'm listening at work. Man it's a chilly night to be at the ole ballpark.

3-1 Dawgs as we head to bottom of the 6th

 

[167Hike]

Yea sure hope it’s nothing serious for Stupp

 

[CB3UK]

Absolutely brutal drop there. Cmon Bad News Bears get it together

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

Dawgs add one. 4-1. Kentucky going to the pen again.

On a side note, Tennessee has hit 60, freaking 60, home runs this year.

 

[Jeff12wb]

I cannot even fathom the comedy of errors we see with this team.
Like, it is NOT believable.
Despicable and a disgrace.

 

[CB3UK]

Atta boy Danny!!! 4-2 now......cmon Cats let's see those bats

It really is hilarious some of the fielding errors. Just like...."what the hell are we doing guys "

They should lead the league every year, they play in a bandbox park.

 

[Old_Red]

That last Nove strikeout looked low to me. Glad we got the call but I can see why the batter was upset.

 

[Old_Red]

Doesn't appear that we can hit SEC pitching very well. We do not look at all comfortable and get behind just about every at bat.

 

[SeanCain]

If we get swept again this weekend we might be out of it already.

We had concerns about talent level coming into the season. Looks like a legitimate issue when looking at other SEC teams.

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

5 straight strikeouts to end the game. Cats lose 4-2. Sheesh. Fall to 15-8 (0-4)

 

[Jeff12wb]

Vomit. This program stinks.

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

If we get swept again this weekend we might be out of it already.

Lose tomorrow, may be out anyway. I said in another thread, start conference play 1-5, your uphill climb becomes a climb up Everest.

We may need to start a thread on possible replacements for Mingione.

 

[Old_Red]

Who is the hitting coach?

 

[CB3UK]

When do wr get a reprieve and play Missouri? They might be worse than we are

 

[Comebakatz3]

8 runs through 4 games. Hitting .191.

 

[SeanCain]

8 runs through 4 games. Hitting .191.

Well we spoke quite a bit about the talent level being brought in. If you recall, we were all skeptical. We might have been right.

 

[Aday117]

This team just isn’t very good guys. Don’t have enough talent top to bottom to compete in the SEC.

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

Who is the hitting coach?

Will Coggin.

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

8 runs through 4 games. Hitting .191.

Couple of things about that. UK struck out 11 times with zero walks. Ritter was hit by a pitch however. Speaking of Ritter. 0-3 tonight with two strikeouts.

Kentuckys 1-4 hitters?? 1-15 with 6 strikeouts and zero walks.

In 4 conference games, UK has struck out 43 times to 10 walks. Only have 25 hits and 8 runs.

Committed 9 errors and honestly should have at least two more.

🥴🥴🥴

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

Last thing I’m going to say for the night. Jeff Drummond had a harsh take on HOB on the state of the baseball program.

 

[Tskware]

Thanks I will read it. To be honest pitching in the SEC last 3 games has been really good. But you can't score 6 runs in 3 games and beat anybody at any level
