It's just a shot from behind home plate with Brian Jeffries doing play by play. Not a high production value.

I'd prefer Jeffries and the plate cam over a P12 production any day

Crazy DP to end the inning. Sliding catch on a slide and doubled up at home.

JJ starts the 3rd with a rocket over the right field wall. 5-1 Cats

The BatCats under Johnson just rake with key hitting.

If the fielding and pitching catch up watch out.

Another bomb by JJ. 7-1

I feel like the discussion on today's game has gone on too long without the following being said:

Fuck ASU

11-1. Grand Salami for Stevenson.

prh · Post by **prh** » Tue Apr 04, 2017 9:01 pm

Stevenson with his first homer as a Cat, a grand slam on a 3-2 count with 2 outs. 11-1 bottom 5

Did I mention lots of runs tonight? And did I mention an ASSU fan melt down LOL

Did they seriously hit one of our guys on purpose?

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Tue Apr 04, 2017 9:46 pm

4,644 is the attendance tonight. I bet we draw 100k this year easily

Juco guys starting to come around. They seem to really be committed to Megil who has a sub 7 ERA. We need all 3 games this weekend on the roas at last place Wazzu. Tough place to play though so we need to stay focused.

The latest predictions had the #2 RPI team with the #1 SOS schedule being the #8 national seed. Just need to keep winning and climbing that ladder

Megill had an ERA over 10 prior to his appearance against asu. Hopefully he continues to get comfortable against top competition.

Saw JC only pitched to one batter before he left the game. Anyone know why? Hopefully it's not serious because they can't lose him.

Per Brian Jeffries, the Arizona bench said it wasn't too serious and that he just felt uncomfortable. So we'll see...

Btw up 19-4 going into the 8th.

Holy hell what happened. It was 6-4 and I look away for 20 minutes and we score 12 in one inning.

zonagrad · Post by **zonagrad** » Fri Apr 07, 2017 9:55 pm

Scramble at the bat rack tonight. Same for softball. Holy hell, both teams can rake!

ChooChooCat · Post by **ChooChooCat** » Sat Apr 08, 2017 4:03 pm

And pitching and fielding issues again....

So far the bats are cold through 3 innings, only natural after a game like yesterday I suppose.

Wazzu up 5-0 Bottom of the 3rd.

ChooChooCat · Post by **ChooChooCat** » Sat Apr 08, 2017 4:16 pm

7-0 Wazzu going into the top of the 4th.

ChooChooCat · Post by **ChooChooCat** » Sat Apr 08, 2017 5:40 pm

Well this one is over, barring some meaningless runs scored in the bottom of the 8th or the top of the 9th Wazzu will win this game easily 9-2. This is a real bad loss, no other way to twist it.

EVCat · Post by **EVCat** » Sun Apr 09, 2017 3:34 pm

2 of 3 is what matters. You are going to lose single baseball games to bad teams on a good day.

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Sun Apr 09, 2017 3:42 pm

Yep, win 2 of 3 when your ace can't even give you an inning. I will take it. Bottom of 7 and we have a 3 run lead right now

When I made this post, Ming gave up a walk and a double to put men on 2nd and 3rd with no outs and us only up 1 in the 8th inning. Ming then struck the next two out and Tylor Megill got the final out of the inning. Total balls effort by Ming to put Megill in position to get out of that jam. Cats win 6-5 and win the series 2-1.

Gotta love the reverse jinx

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Sun Apr 09, 2017 4:46 pm

That was a huge must win victory. You gave to win that series which was made very tough with Cloney unable to give the cats dome innings. Now it's home for 6 games where I bet the cats fill the seats with about 12k per series. I know I am going to come down and watch a couple fames

Huge 3 game set starting Thursday night with Oregon, Must win this series and we need Cloney to get that done. Hopefully it was just the cold bothering Cloney

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Mon Apr 10, 2017 9:00 pm

Up to #7 in most polls. Keep winning men, need that top 8 tourney seed

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Tue Apr 11, 2017 4:49 pm

Tonight at 7pm on your local CW channel the cats will take on the Lopes of GCU. With games against Oregon Thursday not sure who we throw out there to pitch because those arms will be lost for the weekend

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Tue Apr 11, 2017 7:08 pm

Cody Deason on the bump for the cats. Be nice if he could give us 9 innings and save the staff for the weekend

azgreg · Post by **azgreg** » Tue Apr 11, 2017 7:36 pm

Nice ball field they have at GCU.

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Tue Apr 11, 2017 7:37 pm

And they are building a new one they said. Colan gel is pretty aggressive with GCU

Deason is a key pitcher, he was never going to pitch more than a couple of innings. I can't imagine Schnabel pitching much more than a couple either. Flynn is probably next up.

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Tue Apr 11, 2017 8:24 pm

Well Deason doesn't have starters control, he is a bit wild. Thought he looked good but that is not Oregon St he is facing. Still if we can get 3 strong innings from 3 guys that would be great

He's been very solid for a few weeks in a row outside of the last Wazzu game and even then he didn't give up an earned run. Key set up pitcher describes him the best at this point.

They are also broadcasting on YouTube. UA and the Pac12 should take note. Broadcasting on a local channel, streaming online, quality production value...I am kinda jealous. Watching the low quality Pac12 baseball streams with the one camera feed is really shitty. Also, if I am logged into Dish, Pac12 doesn't let me access the feed. I have to clear my cache to get the feed to work.
