820 at last report was first pitch...

MO State is home team but are in the visitors' dugout.

It was a change this year to allow host teams to remain in their dugout even if they were the away team.  In the past, the Hogs would have had to been in the 1st base dugout while Missouri Satte would have been in the 3rd base dugout.

[Bogghawg]

No idea......

Not cool...

[SPAL]

Anybody ready for some baseball?

This shows my lack of knowledge of the regionals, but why would we be the visitors as the higher seed?

Coleman leads it off - 0-1, 0-2, 1-2, 2-2, grounds to SS   One down.

Just asked my brother the same thing???

[Bogghawg]

Great at bat!!!

[Bogghawg]

Seeding determines home team in the first games, then they flip a coin.

[Maddhog]

Bonfield - 1-0, Long fly ball to CF.  One on, two out.

Coin toss after opening round I believe as long as both teams have been the home team. Just like ORU was the home team earlier.

[ucahogfan]

Hit it to the wrong part of the park there.  Crushed it.

[Hawgphish]

we are going to hit this guy!

[Maddhog]

Fletcher - 0-1, 0-2, K's on a curve ball to end the top half.

0-0

[SPAL]

Best bonfield has it in a month

[ucahogfan]

Will be interesting to see if he can hold this velocity. I doubt it since he was 93-97 in the first inning when the scouting report is 88-94.

He settled down there with Fletcher at the plate.  Was overthrowing at first.

Thanks. Looked over the bracket for all regionals and it is about 50/50 higher seed being the visitor.

[12247]

Lets hope that was a good swing on a bad pitch and won't happen again.

[Bogghawg]

I hope it just makes Knight mad.

[Hawgphish]

spanberger ran off field on out 2!

[HogFansReunited]

I hope it just makes Knight mad.

Yeah, he seems to pitch well when he is pissed.

[pigture perfect]

I hate SW Missouri State.

[Beaverfever]

Has that hr landed yet?

[Hawgphish]

They are sitting dead red fastball taking the breaking ball until they get two strikes.  May have to use more off speed early in the count.

[Hawgphish]

Has that hr landed yet?

IT just rolled through foghorn's.

[Maddhog]

Eireman - 1-0, 1-1, 2-1, 2-2, Full, foul, foul, foul, foul, K's swinging to end the first inning.

1-0, MSU

[ThisTeetsTaken]

MOST came to play.

[russdog11]

Don't need to wait until the middle to late innings to score tonight

[12247]

Maybe that homer got the attention of our club.  We need to hit early and often. 

[Maddhog]
