3/10/24 Game 16: Virginia 9-6 L

[Ajcane8]

Make amends for that e6 right now

 

[ewcanes]

Bases loaded, gotta get a couple in here.

 

[MovingZen]

drive in a run!! lets go

 

[ewcanes]

Urso oof.

 

[WanderFranco]

You should stop. You just sound stupid. Nothing you said disputes the facts I just said.

This is child's play. A curve ball off the plate, a curve ball in the dirt, both are 1000x more effective than floating one over the plate like we did.

Take that 3-2 pitch to Urso. A fastball belt high gets hit. A fastball chest high is a swing and a miss. One fastball good, one fastball bad.

 

[MovingZen]

dunno why you would let that pitch go

 

[ewcanes]

Two terrible strikeouts, hit the **** ball.

 

[FrostyVFL]

That was 2 off the plate they called. Rough

 

[Allabouttheu95]

Have to swing the bat there damnit,

 

[Pentagon Cane]

******* horrible call. That was well off the plate.

 

[NC_Canes_11]

You absolutely cannot take back to back K’s there.

Villegas got ****ed on the 2-0 pitch. Completely changed the AB. Still doesn’t excuse letting that last pitch go by.

 

[WanderFranco]

Two terrible strikeouts, hit the **** ball.

That's the big dilemma for the coaches when it comes to small ball. We can't get bunts down, but we also watch dudes blow it in big situations when we let them hit.

 

[CTCanes]

Cannot look at strike three there Villegas

 

[ewcanes]

Leadoff single…

 

[chris2183l]

Urso oof.

He sucks at the plate...

Look here man. UVA is not a team that only hits fastballs. Good hitting teams hit by location. The man showed you he could hit a curveball with power for a HR. You're just a fool if you think you're going to keep throwing the same pitch and expecting a different outcome. The clinical definition of insanity.

You can throw the same pitch if the intent is to throw it somewhere other than belt high. You're assuming that we threw it exactly where JD wanted it.

FYI, a curve ball can be thrown to countless different locations.

 

[HurricanePhilly]

We are going to run Robert into the ground by mid season if we arent careful.

 

[WanderFranco]

What horrible luck.

 

[ewcanes]

ooooof.
