Let's hope it is a good game. Anyone know who they are going to start instead of Clarke Schmidt?

I'm betting that Cody Morris gets a start either Saturday or Sunday. Probably move Will Crowe to tonight and have Adam Hill pitch Sunday.

I was looking at the SEC Stats and it dawned on me that it will take another 7 games before Evan White's stats count in the SEC rankings. Seems a bit hard since he's been in a lot more than 75% of SEC games.

Really? He was ranked in some of them when I looked the other day...?
 
Unfortunate luck on that double play. Could have been a great inning. First two on then a double play.
 
Crowe gives up nearly a hit an inning and he's already given up two, then gets Mahan to strike out. Only good thing was 20 pitches in the top of the first.
 
Disastrous start. Feel like UK could have easily had 2-4 runs and get nothing. I hate bunting with your 3-hole hitter that early in the game. hate it.

Squires gets the 2nd started right with a single up the middle. I like the pressure they are putting on Crowe.
 
Marshall hits one off the pitcher and should be an out because it goes FB but he tries to get the lead and makes a bad throw. First two on again!
 
Carson hits into another potential double play but they only get the lead runner at 2nd.
 
1 run but 26 pitches. We leave two on again. Looks like they have a solid bullpen but it doesn't hurt to get to it early.
 
More UK pressure on Crowe. Two hits and an error and UK scores 2 unearned
 
2 runs in bases loaded, 1 out, and USC pitcher has thrown 72 pitches in only the 3rd inning. A hit here could break this one open !
 
Big inning for UK with 3 runs. I missed the last play, Pompey got a hit and drove one in, but then someone was thrown out at the plate to end the inning. Nick came out to argue, but not sure if it was a good call or not.

4-0 UK heading to bottom of 3.
 
Crowe with 27 pitches in the 3rd. Marshall out at home but Squires scores another unearned.

Ole Miss didn't help us in the 3rd game losing to Arkansas. Their two wins at Arkansas have helped our SOS move even higher.

Crowe gave up 7 hits in 5.2 innings @ Tennessee with 3 runs all earned
gave up 5 hits in 6.1 innings vs Alabama, for 2 runs with 2 earned runs
gave up 8 hits in 6 innings at Aurburn, 5 runs,3 earned
gave up 11 hits in 6.2 innings vs Vanderbilt, 7 runs and 4 earned runs
gave up 7 hits in 8 innings to MSU, 5 runs and 4 earned runs
gave up 6 hits in 7 innings @ Florida with 1 earned run.

He has given up 8 hits a 4 runs, 1 earned in 3 innings against us. We are really putting some heat on him.

Texas A&M tromps Mizzou 11-1 in Columbia. Looks like the Tigers have given up the ghost.
 
5-0 through 3.5. Would like to avoid those double plays, but I'm happy with a 5 run lead to start.
 
Darn, Cottam hits into a double play to gut the inning but White scores on a wild pitch. Two passed balls and a wild pitch so far. Crowe with only 11 pitches that inning. Maybe he is settling in? Looks like South Carolina is going to try to save the bullpen.
 
Hjelle moves really well for a tall guy. Take a high pass to the sidelines to get the second out.

16 and 12 pitches the last two innings. Seems like he's doing well enough to get to the 8th inning.
 
Crowe with 19 pitches in the 5th, pulled after 4.2 innings We didn't get the lead-off runner on fir the first time this game. Pompey likes the reliever, Lee getting a HR and giving two more runs to Crowe for 7 runs and 4 earned runs.
 
This was Crowe's worst start in the SEC season. The game vs Vandy he gave up one more hit but pitched 2 more innings with the same 7 runs with 4 earned.

28 + 23 + 14 pitches is 65 pitches through 5 innings. Hjelle is in good shape.
