Baseball Regular Season Finale – Heels Come to Town

[ncsu1987]

AND we strand two more…

[Wufpacker]

Shoulda tacked on at least one more there.
Hope we don’t end up regretting that. 5-1 Pack end 5th.

[ncsu1987]

Tough called 3rd strike on Sheppard, but it was close enough should have fought it off. Is it me, or is the ball/strike calling more consistent than yesterday?

[Wufpacker]

Consistent, yes. But today’s HP ump seems to REALLY like that low strike call. He’s been consistent with it.

[Gowolves]

Need to get at least one here. There it is.

[TheCOWDOG]

Finally someone takes a freakin’ strike. Lead to a walk and a run…but Jesushchristinasidecar! Take a strike!

[BJD95]

Now three stranded. If we blow this, burning that town to the ground and pissing on every square inch.

[Gowolves]

Kizner at bat was a perfect example to swing at that first pitch. Yeah the last batter walked on four straight but you knew he would be aiming on the first pitch to the next batter. He was taking all the way. That first pitch was money.

Sarcasm? That first pitch was the one. Why take it?

[Wufpacker]

WTG Weeeeel!!!!
Also, very nice pick up by Preston.
Puckering a little less now.
But only just a little.

[ncsu1987]

Nice work to close the inning against a strong batter.

[BJD95]

OF COURSE we hit a double after three dudes in a row leave ’em loaded.

[TheCOWDOG]

@ Gowolves. Because the kid could not find the plate! That entire inning screamed show me, first.

[ncsu1987]

There we go!!! Unpuckering, just a bit…

[Heelh8r]

Got that tinglely feeling going down my leg now

Well then I can’t say your wrong. I missed most of that inning. Just Kizners AB and the one before.

Don’t make me post an old Led Zep song!

[ncsu1987]

Another tough called 3rd strike, but as Wuf said earlier, today’s HP ump has consistently called it. Gotta fight that off at that pitch count.

[Whiteshoes67]

Thank you, Cowdog. Selectively attack. You don’t have to whale away every time it’s close. Ain’t no Vlad Guerroros in this bunch

[ncsu1987]

Now THAT was a beautiful AB by Willard! That’s how you wait and fight for the pitch you want!

Yeah, bcuz that would be terrible.

[TheCOWDOG]

Hey…I was not one for extreme patience, but there comes a time where that guy has to prove that he wants to throw a strike.

No sweep, but it works.

[Wufpacker]

Nicely done Pack.
10-1 Final.

[ncsu1987]

Nice! Not sure what to expect going forward, but nice to end with a series win.

[Wufpacker]

I haven’t gone in and looked closely, so I could be wrong…
BUT…BC/GT playing a double bill today. BC took game one earlier today. I believe it’s still possible that if BC managed to take game two this afternoon that it could knock Carolina out of the ACCT field. So….go Eagles.

I’ll double check, but I think I’m correct.
