GAME 20 Thread: ARKANSAS (10-9, 0-3 SEC) vs. #1 LSU (19-2, 2-1 SEC)

[GatorHog]

So glad I got home just in time to see the Hogs get the first run, and now pour it on!

[pigture perfect]

Is this Poche related to the Poche that used to pitch for us?

[micali]

Woo Pig Sooie!  I didn't expect this. Keep it up.

[ucahogfan]

Benintendi steals 2nd without a throw.  Benintendi's 7th steal of the season and 2nd tonight.

[GatorHog]

If we get 5 innings in, is it ballgame (if rain gets to be too much)?

[ucahogfan]

Wernes grounds out 1-3.

Tigers send Kade Scivicque to the plate to lead off the 5th. He hits .400 on the year and is 0fer tonight

[ucahogfan]

Sorry if I'm late to the party. Hogs' hitting seems much more prolific this season.

Different baseball?

Better batters?

A little of both.  The offense was going to be much improved this year compared to last year without the new ball, but the new ball has helped quite a bit as well.

[ucahogfan]

Scivicque hits it hard right at Bernal who boots it.  Scored a hit, but Bernal should have made the play.

[trippigs]

Explosive inning! Was Nomera doing some sort of bowing after his hit. Looked like a boxer acknowledging judges around the ring

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Stevenson is 0-1 tonight and hits .348 on the year.

[ucahogfan]

Stevenson grounds one to the right side that has eyes as it is just out of the reach of Nomura.  Runners on 1B and 2B with 0 outs.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Chinea bats right and is 0-1 tonight, he hits .293

[ucahogfan]

Zach Jackson runs down to the Arkansas bullpen just in case.

[GatorHog]

Scivicque hits it hard right at Bernal who boots it.  Scored a hit, but Bernal should have made the play.

Gesundheit!

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Tacco at 55 pitches

[ucahogfan]

Chinea hits one to the 365 sign, but Spoon catches it.  Runners have to hold as the runners thought it was getting down.  The ball is carrying extremely well tonight.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Now batting for LSU is Foster (0-1) (.321)

Dat Polynesian etiquette. Or maybe he was just like, thank you thank you, I'll be here all weekend..

[ucahogfan]

Taco getting squeezed on the AB against Foster.

[rhog1]

That was close, good job Spoon.

[ucahogfan]

Foster walks to load the bases with 1 out.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Zardon is 1-1 tonight , hits .279. He hits .174 with runners in scoring position.

[GatorHog]

how 'bout a little 4-6-3

[rhog1]

Come on Taco, get this guy

[ucahogfan]

Zardon grounds into a 5-4-3 DP.

[rhog1]

WPS double play!!

[Razorbacks#1]

Zardon grounds into a 5-4-3 DP.

Very much needed

[Knot2brite]

I just whispered YES! And fist pumped at the play....my wife is not pleased ....

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Here comes Bernal!  He leads off the Razorback 5th.

He hits .371 and is 1-2 with an RBI tonight

[ucahogfan]

Looks like the rain is coming down pretty good now.

[GatorHog]

I just whispered YES! And fist pumped at the play....my wife is not pleased ....

Do this instead..

[ucahogfan]

Bernal works the count full, and he draws a leadoff walk.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Pennell is the #9 hitter for Arkansas and he hits .217 this year. (0-2 tonight)

Looks like the rain is getting heavier .

[Knot2brite]

Do this instead..

I am tryin to stay married here

[ucahogfan]

Pennell can't get a sac bunt down on 3 tries.  DVH can't even look him in the eye.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Eagan has 3 hits and scored 2 runs tonight. His average is up to .325 now.

[rhog1]

Man. Can't believe we kept the bunt on there.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

I am tryin to stay married here

Try this, maybe that will help!

[Knot2brite]

try this

I see there is no sympathy here....

[ucahogfan]

Eagan down swinging as he chased a ball off the outside corner.

[Razorbacks#1]

I see there is no sympathy here....

Not so much

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Serrano bats now, he is 2 for 3 tonight with a run scored

[ucahogfan]

Serrano HBP as he was squared around, but it was called a strike as Serrano was ruled not to get the bat back around.  DVH out to talk with the home plate ump about it.

[ucahogfan]

Serrano fouls out to the 1B just in front of the stands.

Here is what I imagine is in Serrano's locker:
