Official 2025 Nebraska Cardiac Beaver Slayers Baseball Thread (7-11) - We suck again

[...TrueColors...]

The situation should be 1 out with 1 on. Instead there are two on and none out

 

[...TrueColors...]

Next batter bunts. There are runners on 2nd and 3rd with 1 out.

That 2-2 pitch was a strike right down the heart of the plate and it froze the umpire. Absolutely disgusted by that call.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Umpire has had a tight zone on the outer part of the plate to right handed batters and inside part to lefties. Nobody has gotten any calls on that part of the plate especially down in the zone. Bookmark this as I have a hunch that may be subject to change.

That 2-2 pitch was not there. It was a strike by every definition and umpire blew it.

Christo on to pitch now.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Infield in for Nebraska

 

[...TrueColors...]

Christo, 4th year senior, is of course having trouble finding the zone.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Christo holds true to form and walks the first guy he sees.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Toughest out in the lineup coming up for UCLA

 

[...TrueColors...]

Sac fly and UCLA has taken the lead 3-2.

That runner shouldn't have been on 3rd as the guy on second struck out on the 2-2 pitch referenced

 

[...TrueColors...]

Christo has to work now to keep it 3-2 and give his team the chance.

I do not understand the love affair this staff has with Christo…..

 

[...TrueColors...]

Christo gives up a single as he can't find the zone. Run scores. Now 4-2. That runner remember, shouldn't have been on base.

Also remember, Christo can't find the zone and he's not been good.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Christo with a wild pitch. Now 5-2.

 

[Ironwardog]

 

[...TrueColors...]

Christo needs to never pitch again in high leverage situations.

This is an embarassment for Christo.

Six strikes on seventeen pitches for Christo.

The stat that is golden for relievers is the number of first batters faced that are retired.

Christo has been awful tonight. Lets turn the page from him in these situations.

 

[...TrueColors...]

Christo finally gets the last out on a ball that was smoked right to his glove.

This is where baseball gets deceiving.

Will Walsh now technically gave up 4 earned runs. He was much better than that. Not that everyone reads every post on this thread, but if you have followed along hopefully you have picked up on the fact Walsh was NOT 4 runs bad tonight.

And Buttenbach is called out on a ball on the chalk in the right handed batters box. Catcher was even set up outside.

Umpire has had a rough couple innings.
