2017 SEC BASEBALL TOURNAMENT - NON RAZORBACK GAMES

[TNhawgfan]

Gators making it real interesting

[CJ HOG]

Would like Florida to tie this up and then have it go about 15 innings.

May happen, Fla. only down 3-2 with bases loaded and 1 out in the 8th atm.

[Bogghawg]

It would be best to face MSU tonight.  They are even more out of pitching than we are and beating them for the 4th time in 5 tries would shut up anyone that thinks they might should host ahead of us.  After that it wouldn't really mater what happened with us tomorrow.

[Razorback7281]

Really bad at bat right there

[southarkhog06]

Some guy named Maldonado with the worst ab I have seen this year.

Agree 100%

[TNhawgfan]

Gators tie it

[Razorback7281]

We would have to beat UF twice to make it to the Finals though, right? If that's the case, it might be better for MSU to win. Sure, we'd have to beat UF tonight, but they've got a couple of injuries today and having to beat them once after the already playing would be better than having to twice in the same day. We swept MSU earlier and they got all the right bounces to beat us yesterday. With their bullpen being depleted, we'd have a better shot beating them twice in a row.

No tomorrow is single elimination regardless.

Sucks to blow a game late doesn't it MSU

[Bogghawg]

SEC ESPN announcers agree with our take on who is more negatively affected by having to play again tonight.

[CJ HOG]

Sucks to blow a game late doesn't it MSU

Hopefully they don't bounce back tonight like the Hogs did yesterday, instead they just lay down and bleed out!

[southarkhog06]

Well State, you live by the crazy bullpen meltdown you die by the crazy bullpen meltdown.

5-3 Gators in Top of 8th with 2 outs and runners on 2b and 3b.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Bases loaded

[Razorback7281]

Ahhh, okay thanks! Well in that case, hopefully they go extras and UF pulls it out.

Few years ago Arkansas got the short end of the stick on this.  Won the first 2 games then got beat by LSU in the Saturday semifinal game and were eliminated with only one loss.

[TNhawgfan]

6-3 gators

[Kevin]

wonder who state will throw
3rd game in a little over 24 hours

They will have to just piece it together I guess. Hoping Hogs jump on them early and put up a couple 1st inning runs to make them sweat and lose all confidence.

[southarkhog06]

the equipment manager.

[Hog-Corleone]

8-3 Florida now, 2-out runners on the corners...

Runners on 2nd and 3rd, as runner on first steals...

Walk, bases juiced....again...

[TNhawgfan]

Florida does nada for 7, and then puts up 8 (so far) in the 8th

[Razorback7281]

Find a gap here and Florida could go from on the verge of a loss to winning in a run rule.

[HamIAm]

Yeah, I think it's pretty obvious MSU is out of pitching.

[TNhawgfan]

Wow! An 11 spot in the 8th

[Hog-Corleone]

bases cleared with a double off the wall...11-3...

[southarkhog06]

Keep using arms State, keep using arms.

[tennesseehogwild]

Wow!!!!!!!!! And I thought the Hogs imploded yesterday morning!

[Bogghawg]

This is a melt down of biblical proportions.  Two more runs and there might not even be a 9th inning in this thing.

[Razorback7281]

Keep using arms State, keep using arms.

They ran out of arms 4 pitchers ago.  They are just rolling warm bodies out there now.

[Hog-Corleone]

This should eat up some pitchers for our game tonight....maybe...hopefully...

[tennesseehogwild]

Wow! An 11 spot in the 8th

......and counting..lol!

[oldrazorband]

I was thinking meltdown of Razorback proportions.  LSU style.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

11 run Florida 8th inning in a 40 minute .5 inning.

[TNhawgfan]

Serious question : these two teams have been showing such passion today, so why did our dugout look like they were watching a cooking show yesterday?

You don't have to jump up and down and yell to be intense or passionate about the game

[CJ HOG]

WOW...MSU pitchers in the 8th inning alone:

68 Total Pitches
31 Balls
37 Strikes

That's 4-5 innngs of pitches right there.

[southarkhog06]

they also had been playing or prepping for a game since around 730 that morning.

[Razorback7281]

Florida looks to have put in a little used reliever in order to save their better guys.  First 2 state batters have reaches and he's all over the place.

[southarkhog06]

now how about State come back to tie it then go about 18 innings.

[TNhawgfan]

Good answer. I really hadn't thought of that

[Razorback7281]

Now a walk.  Bases juice no outs.  O'sullivan is pissed

[CJ HOG]

Gators bring in there Closer for the final 6 outs. 10 saves on the season

[Suidae Suis Scrofa]

Holy cow! Step away for an hour for a meeting and Florida brings down the hammer.  Hopefully this will break MSST's back.

I'm not rooting for Florida. It's setting up for MSU to go farther than us in the tournament, and then the talking heads start with the MSU should host talk

Why would rooting for UF set up MSU to go farther than us?

[southarkhog06]

Looks like they are throw thier closer for 2 innings so he shouldn't be available tomorrow.

[Razorback7281]

With an 8 run lead.  That's why O'Sulliven was so hacked at the reliever who didn't get an out.

[rljjr]

I would think the crushing sense of loss for MSU with an 11-run 8th inning for Florida will be advantage Hogs. It's almost exactly like the Hogs yesterday, but ours was a 1-run loss where we didn't hit the ball well. MSU hit pretty well in this game, got a tremendous outing from their starting pitcher, and their bullpen completely disintegrated.
Oh, and if any of you guys find the old timer yelling, "hurry up, pitcher!" please sit next to him and shout him down every time he opens his mouth.

And, that was just for 1/2 inning. Took 40 minutes.

I think the bigger advantage will be having a weekend starter available while State has the equipment manager and a few reserve infielders left.
