Bear Down Wildcats

Son of bitch. Shit

That should be their 2nd “real” hit

The camera is in a weird spot

Where have the bats gone?

Geez

Well that’s one way to get on base.

Let's use it

Boom!

YES! Ryan Holgate!!

NO FUCKING DOUBTER!

LEAD!

Fuck yes!!

holgate fucking CRUSHED that ball

BOOM! WHAT A SWEET SWING!!!

And boom goes the dynamite!

And - quick shoutout for not showboating a dramatic stomp on home plate like the Vandy guy.

Rocker has been rocked!

Bye bye!

rocker ran

ALL HAIL HOLGATE!!!!!

Haha. Bye Mr. All-world pitcher.

I just figured it out. The guy can’t pitch from the stretch.
Lol.

I wonder if he had a tell from the stretch that we were picking up on

Just hit it to first. Bwahaha!

Use it again

Vandy D looks bad. Just put it in play and score some runs.

Tipping? Maybe.

Ugh, don't chase that one in the dirt...

Rocker looks like he wants to cry.

I’m sure we watched a ton of film...could have tipped. Maybe just a rhythm thing too though for him

For some guys velo goes down and their pitches flatten out when they are in the stretch.

PS - I’m following the game by refreshing this thread and I want you to know I love all you fuckers.

Bomb Diggity!!

Could have used a 2 out hit. Oh well Cats up 5-3.
Interesting to see if Chase can give us just 1 more inning.

Nik not having great day at plate, but I’ll take the glove.

Want to talk more about Silseth now that Rocker is out??

He fucking gave an extra shove you shithead announcers.

Silseth gets through the 6th. phew.

that play at first had danger written all over it, glad silseth and the vandy guy are ok

3 up, 3 down

Yeah that was totally unnecessary. Glad no one was hurt.

Couple nice plays in that inning though. More runs would be nice here.

Do we bring Silseth back out in the 7th?
I'd have to think we don't, but....what do you guys who've seen more UA ball this year think?

POM, you seem very caring today.

Nice job Chase. 6 strong innings giving up only 3 runs.
Will take that every day of the week and twice on Sunday with our offense.

Whew...looked gone off the bat.

I think you let him go at this point. Not like he can come back in 2 days

He looked like he was losing his control on the breaking pitch after sitting so long

berry with the great at bat and then a single up the middle to finish it off. nice.

dang, double play ends the half for us.

welp I guess Silseth is goin back out there then, since they were giving him some treatment there with the messager

I would imagine he’s on a short, short leash here.

Yeah, or let him get an out or 2 if it’s quick and bring someone in with lower pressure

I keep waiting for the plane to land so my ears will pop and I won't have that over-driven speaker sound of his voice. But it's like that old bit where you can't understand the guy at the drive-thru speaker, but when you get up to the window, he sounds exactly the same in person. He trashed us at the 2016 CWS, falsely claiming we overworked our pitchers. Definition of a mediocre journeyman player. Coat-tailed on father Tony's name, but a very marginal .247 career hitter. Well, at least he's got that voice for doing color on ESPN. Oh, wait...
