Kentucky at Miss State (2)

[Comebakatz3]

Harmon out. Hill in. They also shake the lineup up again.

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

First two hitters go down on strikes. Oh boy.

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

Well. Three strikeouts in the top of the first.

 

[Aday117]

Could be another long night...

 

[CatsFanGG24]

This guys fastball is filthy...thing got a ton of movement at 95

 

[Comebakatz3]

Strikeout is how we start out. Kessler moved up to the 2 hole. We will see if that helps. He strikes out as well. Rhodes singles and Collett Ks

 

[Comebakatz3]

Cam Hill showing off the glove already!!! Robbed Miss State of at least a hit and maybe a run

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

What a catch by Cam Hill. Anu doesn’t make that play.

 

[Old_Red]

Kudos for putting Hill in left. I hate to think what Anu would have done with that one.

 

[Big_Blue_1018]

5ks through two. Good flipping grief.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Back to back Ks looking for UK. Estep grounds out ro short

 

[Aday117]

Taking fastballs right down broadway with 2 strikes. Not great.

Taking fastballs right down broadway with 2 strikes. Not great.

Somebody swing at the ball!!!

 

[Old_Red]

Ritter is swinging at a lot of balls.

 

[sluggercatfan]

Embarassing themselves...every hitter looks scared to death.

 

[Aday117]

Going to need an absolute gem from Stupp to have a chance in this one.

 

[Jeff12wb]

Stupp looks ready for this challenge so far. Lots of movement and he is all around the edges. Keep making quick work and don't let the momentum skew towards MSU.
Keep the guys behind you ready to get in the dugout and correct their mistakes at the plate.

 

[Old_Red]

Quieting the announcers a bit. Lots of respect for Stupp. Also someone one may have made the right adjustments for the hitters. We are starting to get better contact.

 

[Jeff12wb]

TIMOTHY!

 

[SeKy1992]

I would like to see the stats on that TJ bomb. Dude can sure put a charge into one when he gets ahold of it.

 

[Comebakatz3]

I have never seen a glove with longer leather straps than this pitcher has.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Cats at least put the ball in play that inning. Hill hit one well, but just couldn't get it in the gap.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Stupp absolutely dealing at this point. Through 5. Playing democracy baseball and sending grounders to everyone.

 

[Old_Red]

Stupp with an 8 pitch 5th is darn impressive.

 

[Jeff12wb]

I mean, you cannot ask for anything more from this kid so far. He has been nails.
Shutout through 5 IP on just 49 pitches.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Auburn up 3-0 again on Arkansas. Just the third. Pretty crazy.

 

[Comebakatz3]

They intentionally walk Collett with 1 out. Now Church needs to burn them.

 

[Comebakatz3]

He looks at strike 3 instead. 2 our runners on the corners. Anu now with his chance. He grounds out to short to end the inning.

 

[Aday117]

Church... leaving too many guys on these last few innings

 

[Comebakatz3]

Top of the lineup for State. 4 pitch walk.

 

[Aday117]

My goodness.... that just can’t happen

 

[BlueStoops]

Welp

 

[Comebakatz3]

Kessler out to talk to Stupp. Ohh no. Hill loses the ball in the sky on a routine pop up and it lands in the grass. Goes as a single, but it's one Hill has to have.

 

[Aday117]

This one is starting to slip away. Brutal.

 

[Comebakatz3]

That was weird. A grounder through the right side and Rhodes goes home and Kessler couldn't get the tag on the runner. 2-1. They are looking at this, but it's a run.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Maybe Kessler not taking his mask off hurt him on seeing the runner there? That was weird that he went left and the runner went right.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Line out to Church and UK tries to double him up, but they call him safe. They are going to look at it and I think he's safe. Church bobbled it a touch. Still, that's one out and opens the door for the double play.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Harper and Jones up in the pen. Wow... not sure where that fastball missed. Pop up to Hill. He gets a bead on that one and brings it in. However, it scores the run 2-2.

 

[Comebakatz3]

Auburn up 4-0 on Arky in the 5th. They could win that series tonight.

Stupp gets a ground out to short to end the inning.

 

[BlueStoops]

Should still be 2-0 but bats have to get big hits
