pitch was low

This ump sucks.

 

[RevSader]

That's all on the ump. He didn't throw a strike that AB.

 

[Bmurph]

Aggies gonna pull this one out

Those breaking balls were eating those guys up there

the bad ump too apparently

 

[Bmurph]

Seriously, I might watch college baseball around the CWS and that is it. I do not like watching baseball on a less than professional level. Even in some of the lower pro leagues it's an awful watch.

I watch very little CBB until this time in the season, I prefer the wooden bats myself

If the ump is busy guessing the hitters sure aren't gonna fare much better.

The talent level is just not there to keep my interest. Watching 3B and SS bounce throws to first on deep hops isn't entertaining. Or watching pitchers just strike out 25 guys cause pitchers have good breaking balls. These kids have no shot vs these breaking balls.

if you're getting pinch hit for by a guy batting .196, you're having a bad day

 

[RevSader]

Their CF can play.

I really enjoy AA games. Watched Knoxville (E Tennessee) when it was in the Toronto system and MY played 2b. Arkansas when it was in the STL system ... and now that I am back here Arkansas in the LAA system is boring. Best venue and entertainment was/is Frisco.

Back in the 80s-90s Texas League would play as many as two 7-inning double headers a week. Great entertainment between games. Guys getting shot out of cannons and acrobats when the circus was in town. Free admission passes at Krogers ... $5 box seats and food was your only expense. Good old days.

As a team they are hitting .180 tonight. Frogs aren't doing much better.

 

[Bmurph]

This TCU pitcher was diagnosed with TOS, when?

 

[RevSader]

They have made nearly half their outs via strike out...dear lord

shit bad math..they have made over half their ours via strikeouts. 23 of 42 outs have been K.

 

[RevSader]

All these breaking balls one of them will have to be a hanger.

 

[Bmurph]

Thats not a strike either, but I guess if they're gonna swing at pitches like that 1st one then why not call it

 

[RevSader]

Frogs hadn't taken a full swing in so long the Ofers forgot what to do with the ball.

I think we are spoiled with how good the facilities are at minor league parks now.
