Official 2024 Nebraska Cardiac Beaver Slayers Baseball Thread (40-22)

I'm not a baseball savant... but do they replace the left-handed Stone at DH with another left-hander in Bradford? Bradford has some pop but also has some speed.

Highly doubtful. Stone had a rough game, but he did deliver in the 8th. Caron has to tag on that.

If anything, they'll go Swanny DH & Evans in LF. Or Sanderson will DH & Evans in RF.

Stone has earned his time.

I had to leave the place I was at and didn’t see the 8th.

How bad was Caron’s mistake?

Based on how Niagara is looking... will they still go with McConnaughey tomorrow?
 
Not like we ran into a buzz saw. Sears hung a couple shitty 2 strike pitches and it cost him. He seemed generally sloppy and not sharp, so credit to him for only giving up 3.

They generally hit the piss out of the ball. We’re kind of lucky they didn’t score more, but we also had some hard hit balls go for outs.

Shoulda tagged their pitcher early when his breaking ball was ass. Was solid after that, though. If that kid can put it together he looks to be a hell of a pitcher.

And then they had some kid who had played in 5 games hit 3 doubles! Not sure we have that kind of talent just hanging out on our bench.

The no tag sucked, but it’s been covered. Not capitalizing with bases loaded and 1 out also sucked.

Yeah, honestly I’m pretty impressed that we kept them to five runs. They can absolutely tear the cover off the ball but our pitchers got some big strikeouts (and lucky line outs) in big situations.

The offense didn’t do its job today, but hopefully they can loosen up now and bring the sticks tomorrow.
