ParticipantHuh….interesting. We have the Block S logo on the backstop today.
Wasn’t there yesterday. I know this because I wondered why we had the ACC and NCAA logos back there and not our own.
I guess someone else wondered the same thing and rectified it overnight.06/05/2016 at 3:49 PM #104286Wufpacker
ParticipantCan’t say Piedmonte didn’t show up today, that’s for sure.

I’d be tempted to quote myself, but …it ain’t apropos.
For a Moderate…ator. 😉

ParticipantThen I’ll quote ya…at least indirectly…
“Piedmonte’s gotta be the man.”
And today he was, indeed.06/05/2016 at 4:10 PM #104289Wufpacker
ParticipantGotta say, it’s weird seeing us in the 3B dugout.

And here all this time I thought you were a Master baiter. 😉

ParticipantBTW, they will not be playing again tonight. I presume this is a preemptive weather decision.
Pack will face Coastal tomorrow at 1pm.
Again at 6pm if necessary.06/05/2016 at 4:25 PM #104292TheCOWDOG
ModeratorHmmm. The severe weather warnings are up. Radar shows some nifty cells coming from the Sandhills.
Monday is a good day to play two.

ParticipantWe’ve kicked both extra points and the FG attempt was good as well…

Haha. Wish I could figure out how we gave up half a safety.
06/05/2016 at 4:45 PM #104295TheCOWDOG
Moderator’78…Pack will need a TD, and kick conversion in game one tomorrow.
In game two, they better go for, well…2.

ParticipantGlad he got his walk off ovation.
Though Avent might fuck that up.06/05/2016 at 4:54 PM #104297Wufpacker
Participant17-1 final, Pack bounces back to get the win and eliminate Navy.
Gonna give big JP the credit for the CG win, even though technically he only went 8.2. Dude was money today.Gotta win two tomorrow vs Coastal (1pm, 6pm).

ParticipantImpressive job, ECU. Ups yours anyway, however.
06/05/2016 at 7:03 PM #104299TheCOWDOG
ModeratorFunny how we all opine…I pull for ECU.
06/05/2016 at 7:20 PM #104300Wufpacker
ParticipantThey’re 1b on the hate list.
But from a detached perspective, can’t not give ’em credit. Helluva job this weekend by those assheads.06/05/2016 at 7:59 PM #104301Wufpacker
ParticipantNot looking good for Rice early on. Too bad…hoping the Owls can pull the upset and give us a Super Regional hosting chance (ie IF we can take two tomorrow on thin pitching).

ParticipantJust wondering, I don’t know, but perhaps we have deeper pitching for a double header than Coastal with JP giving the bullpen rest today?

Don’t know , myself, but I’d still run JP out there in game two.

ParticipantWell, how ’bout ‘dem Eagles?
WTG BC. True at the time or not, I take back all of the things I said over the years about how bad you are. Well done.06/05/2016 at 9:40 PM #104305TheCOWDOG
ModeratorGD it! I wanna pinch hit tomorrow!

ParticipantWas told that the reason for the Monday afternoon game, was that the NCAA would only allow a team to play 2 games in one day. Even though it was 1 inning vs. coastal. Still 2 games. Hopefully some good rest, and pick up where we left off today.
06/05/2016 at 10:09 PM #104307Wufpacker
ParticipantInteresting.
Never had heard that one before. Thx for the info.06/05/2016 at 11:59 PM #104308ruffles31
KeymasterVery curious to see who Avent starts tomorrow. The only 3 pitchers that one could easily assume State would start in the regional were Brown, Wilder, and Piedmonte. Now, who is up? My guess would be Adler since he hasn’t pitched but about 1 IP on Saturday. You can pull Orwig out for 2-3 Innings, and Gilbert hasn’t been needed yet so he could give 2-3 innings as well.
Chris Williams uncharacteristically wasn’t sharp against Navy on Friday. He should be ready and can easily eat 3-4 innings. ‘
If they win game 1, then the deciding game would be fascinating to watch from a State pitching point of view.
And the elephant in the room could be this. With Brown only throwing 70 pitches on Friday, and it would be his bullpen day, would he be available for 1-2 innings?
But that is all moot if the offense doesn’t score a good number of runs. And you have to assume that to win the two games, it would mean that the offense has to tag Morrison for a run or two. And he was unhittable yesterday.
