Game 39 Thread: Arkansas (23-15, 7-8 SEC) vs. #19 Vanderbilt (28-10, 7-8 SEC)

[ucahogfan]

First pitch is set for 6:35 this evening.  Tonight's game will not be televised.  This is a matchup of the two teams in the SEC who have avoided a sweep in SEC play the longest.  Vandy has played 24 SEC series without being swept while the Hogs have played 22.  The Hogs will send Sophomore RHP Trey Killian (1-6, 3.00 ERA) to the bump to start Game 1 as he is seeking his 4th CG in 6 SEC starts.  The Commodores are countering with 2011 1st round pick Junior RHP Tyler Beede (5-4, 3.23 ERA).  I won't be able to do PBP tonight.

It's a shame. I'd love to watch the game tonight.

Got HOGs!!

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

UCA are you going to set up the starting line ups?






Trying to decide if I'm going to run over to the ballpark and get a hotdog, some Barbeque Nacho's and popcorn.

[Kenny Dowell Loggains]

Hard to believe Killian is 1-6 with a 3.00 ERA... All due to lack of run support.  Should be 5-2 or 4-3 at the very least.

Win it for KILLIAN!

I'd prefer to help with 1/2 inning box, but will do PBP if no one comes forward.

Roger that. Maybe Pocono can jump in. If not, I can attempt it.

[Hogpkins]

Vandy batters 1-4 in lineup all hitting above .320.  And when the 9-hole circles around that's 5 .300+ batters in a row.  This should be a good matchup against our starting pitchers this weekend.

[trippigs]

Before we get started I gotta know......has anyone tried Sooiee Sauce??

[Hogpkins]

I'm surprised to see Beede with a 5-4 record...although I do consider pitcher W-L record the most unfair statistic in sports.

No, have you, and if so please compare to other sauces. Big Texas Pete fan here.

Killian was dealing that inning. Both Ks were looking on really good pitches.

[Razorbacks#1]

A nice 3 up and 3 down to get it started

Nope...don't think they sell it in Hot Springs where I live

Nice hit and run. If the runner is not going that is a DP, but SS moved to cover 2nd with the runner on the move.

Anderson goes low on wild pitch, advancing Serrano to 2nd

HELL YEAH

[JHicks3636]

Vandy pitcher has been all over the place and we have laid off his junk. Finally got one over and it went out.

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

The story on this pitcher is that he sometimes struggles early and then gets better as he warms up.

[Razorbacks#1]

Wernes chops to center, out at 1st.
Hogs 4-0

Goodness Gracious! Fisher is on fire.......

[A_R_K_A_N_S_A_S]

Razorbacks#1 let me know if you need a break and I can fill in.

[Scott7703]

Bax and Fisher are doing work lately. Knocking in runs with less than two outs which we struggles mightily with early.

[tennesseehogwild]

Why do I say every year "Never again will I purchase razorvision" But I always do only to be let daown once again. 

[Razorbacks#1]

Conde draws a walk

[JonClaudeVanHam]

Never walk the lead off man after a big inning. Come on, Killian..
