Tourney Central (It’s time for ball!)

[scane]

What’s Evan’s pitch count?

37 pitches

 

[NC_Canes_11]

37 pitches

I’m pulling him

 

[Number1CanesFan]

Announcers talking about exactly what I was thinking. It would be crazy to pull Evan, but man it would be so nice to have him available again this weekend

Not sure what to do. You either let Mckenndry go the whole way or you pull him and get a few innings from him if we reach Monday. You could pitch guys that don't pitch on weekends. Guys that never pitch on the weekend.

Mixon is warming up

 

[Cognizantphotos]

11-0 sit the starters lets go.

 

[scane]

11-0

 

[pcitycane]

Pretty comfy lead

 

[Number1CanesFan]

Great to see our boyz taking care of business!!!!

 

[GAhurricane]

needs to just be mixon and Mantilla the rest of the day

 

[NC_Canes_11]

This is the second best outcome, behind if Keysor would’ve started

 

[Lance Roffers]

I kind of criticized Coach DeMare yesterday, but taking out McKendry here and saving him for a chance to throw 3-4 innings on Monday is the type of decision that a coach trying to win the Regional makes.

Not what to do. You either let Mckenndry go the whole way or you pull him and s get a few innings from him if we reach Monday. You could pit h guys that you won't pitch this weekend. Guys that never pitch on the weekend.

That was my point. It’s a glorified bullpen. Pull him and have him for monday

Loaded again for Gil. Keep scoring, I don’t trust our middle relief even with an 11 run lead.

It's a glass half-full way to look at things, but this is honestly better than winning last night and then losing tonight but playing a pitcher a full game. Get rest today, then play CMU tomorrow afternoon (and win), and then you figure it out tomorrow night. Maybe Slade starts and goes 3-4 innings and then they go with bullpen. Get to Monday you have McKendry available to give you a shot.

Long odds still, but this was best-case scenario after you lost game one.

 

[Florido]

Down 0-1 in a double elimination, 4 day tourney and winning the elimination game 11-0, with one of your aces pitching with only 37 pitches; it's a no brainer Geno, pull McKendry.

It really is. The only better scenario is Central Michigan winning tonight, giving us a one game shot to knock out Miss St with Van Belle.

 

[CTCANE]

No reason not to take out McKendry. He will get over not pitching 5 innings to get the win

 

[Geddy Lee]

Please bench Gates

 

[Number1CanesFan]

Gate needs to sit. He's not picking up the ball. Just waiving at everything.

 

[scane]

Gino is resting Amditis also. Quinones in at catcher.
