Pack vs Owls Supers Gm 1 – Gameday Thread

blockSbaseball

After a tad of moisture kept the Wolfpack and the Rice Owls from getting going yesterday as scheduled, the Raleigh Super Regional gets underway today at 4pm with game one of the series.

Today will still be Rodon vs Kubitza as far as anyone knows at this time.

Game will be aired on ESPN2 and ESPN3.

Other games going on…

North vs South in Chapel Hill…currently knotted at 5 in the 9th inning.  A couple of random comments from a good friend who, when I came in from playing outside this morning and said it looks like I had missed a pretty good game so far, had these replies loaded up and ready….

Actually rife with really bad baseball. These kids don’t know the fundamentals for shit. Bad baserunning, throwing to the wrong base, bad bunts, chasing sinking liners, first pitch swinging on breaking balls…it’s a laundry list.

Can anyone guess who authored those words? 😀

FSU vs Indiana in Tallahassee…’Noles currently trail the Hoosiers 9-6 in the 7th.

UVa vs Miss St in Charlottesville…Bulldogs putting it to the ‘Hoos thus far, 8-4 in the 5th.

Vandy vs ‘Ville in Nashville…just underway, scoreless, Vandy threatening bottom 1st.

Coming up later…

LSU vs Oklahoma, 7pm

Oregon St. vs K State, 7pm

Fullerton vs UCLA, 10pm

Use this thread to talk about not only the Pack’s game at 4pm, but all of the other NCAA Super Regional action going on.

Go Pack!!! This IS Next Year!!!

    If you can bunt and get it down and move ’em over…which we did…looking at a tie game with the opposition down to their last 3, that’s the play. We just effed it up after that.

    Don’t discount the play by Rice 1B…that smoker from Senay gets thru, and nobody is 2nd guessing the bunt to move the runners over.

    Infield hit gives Rice two on with one away….

    Carlos has gone as far as he can….Sasser to relieve….

    Sasser Ks Stainbeck…two away….

    Well, my horse Oxbox finishes 2nd!

    I just don’t like giving them outs they don’t earn. Sure, if it works, everybody’s happy… just never seems to work for us.

    I yield.

    Watching a sport in which you’re the average clueless fan is a lot less frustrating than watching a sport you know and all the obvious f’ups of a stubborn inflexible coaching staff.

    Two out double down the RF line scores one for Rice….3-2 Rice….

    Josh Easley coming on to try to stop the bleeding.

    Great job limiting the damage.

  10. tjfoose1 06/08/2013 at 6:53 PM #

    Wish we had Rodon going in game two. We need a 9th innng rally to avoid the worst possible scenario.

  11. Wufpacker 06/08/2013 at 6:55 PM #

    Ratteree stands in for Rice…2nd and 3rd, two away…

    And holy shit…thank god that hooked foul….

    Pop up on the right side, which somehow Trea Turner ends up taking (bunch of pussies) ends it with an F6.

    Pack needs at least one or they go down 0-1 in the series.

    Headed to bottom 9

    I has the sads now.

  13. PackAmy 06/08/2013 at 6:57 PM #

    Phew – I thought that was going to get worse.

  14. BJD95 06/08/2013 at 6:59 PM #

    3-2 is bad enough. I expect 3 up, 3 down. Depression drinking now in full swing.

  15. PackAmy 06/08/2013 at 7:00 PM #

    I think we missed our preordained chance to win in the 8th.

  16. Wufpacker 06/08/2013 at 7:01 PM #

    Leadoff walk to Brett Williams to start the Pack’s 9th….

    Then steals 2nd on a swing and a miss on a hit and run play….

  17. BJD95 06/08/2013 at 7:02 PM #

    NOW we hit and run LOL. No more bunts.

  18. tjfoose1 06/08/2013 at 7:02 PM #

    Preordained? That was just to tease us, to make it hurt a lil more.

  19. tjfoose1 06/08/2013 at 7:03 PM #

    Exactly what I was thinking BJD.

  20. Wufpacker 06/08/2013 at 7:04 PM #

    Damn…Adametz frozen on that fastball…Ks looking, one away….

  21. Wufpacker 06/08/2013 at 7:05 PM #

    Botched pickoff attempt moves Williams to 3rd….one away….

    Armstrong takes one on the hip to reach base…1st and 3rd, one away….

  22. tjfoose1 06/08/2013 at 7:05 PM #

    Runner on 3rd. Don’t get excited. It’s just to make it hurt a lil more.

  23. PackAmy 06/08/2013 at 7:05 PM #

    Sometimes it seems like it is preordained for us to win and then we ef it up. But then that might mean it isn’t preordained. 🙂

  24. tjfoose1 06/08/2013 at 7:06 PM #

    When we strike out the side.

  25. BJD95 06/08/2013 at 7:06 PM #

    Please walk him so we get a better hitter up. I will risk the DP.
