OM vs. TCU - Game Two

Homeplate ump is giving McKean that outside low strike he's giving the TCU guys, b/c he's got his control. Cody just didn't have it today....

Not sure if you followed Rebel baseball last year, but actually we're doing better this year in that situation. I can't count how many times last year we had runners on 3rd, less than 2 outs and couldn't get the runner home. We're doing better this year, but still struggling with it.

McKean is doing pretty good. 2 away quickly! Go Rory!!

I did, but not to the extent I am this year. Was so disheartend by basketball, I needed something to put my heart into, and it's baseball season baby!!!!

I guess I'll take your word for it about being better this year, but SONOFA!!! that's aggravating

These guys are either high school leftovers or blind AND stupid.

I've been following Rebel baseball closely for 5 years now and this is the FIRST time I've EVER seen one of our players ejected. EVER. And TWO of them are ejected in one game? Our guys just don't play that way. That tells me that something is seriously wrong with these umps.

I'd be interested to know what's going on here...

COME ON REBELS!!!!!! GET FIRED UP AND LETS GET SOME RUNS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't have to follow the Rebs long to recognize that these guys have NO CLUE what their doing.

You got it man...

Alright, I've had enough. We've got errands to do and it seems like the Ump has this one put away...... so I'm bowing out now, before I get any further motivation to drive to FW tonight and smash some ump heads.

Good game blue, way to be a NON factor.

Dropped fly ball with two out in the ninth, winning run scores for the Frogs. Well that rips it... Just didn't get it done in game two. Lots of stuff contributed to this one: The inning we loaded the bases and didn't score, Henry going one for nine today, starter didn't have his stuff, two players tossed...

The officiating was horrendous. We're talking MONUMENTALLY horrendous.

However, had the game been called better, I still don't think we'd have won. TCU played better, pitched better and hit when it counted. We have no excuses at all. We played (pitching was pretty good all day) poorly. You cannot load bases with no outs, and get punked out in games against good teams. They'll make you pay, and TCU did just that.

I want Mike to let the boys off the leash tomorrow. I want him to let them swing at what they like, throw what they want and run when they feel like it. Let them have some fun. We're going to drop in the polls no matter what, so I don't think playing not to lose (like we did today) is worth it. We've got some high powered offense on this team, give them the keys and trust that they'll take care of it!!!!!!!
