Big ups to Bob Arens for the way he played tonight. Him gunning that guy in the top of the 11th turns out to be big and the final out on the Cats. Walker was awesome at 2nd tonight as well. Happy for Tyler Grimes starting it and ending it in style.THERE ARE FLOCKS OF BIRDS AND MANY A CAT ------ BUT ONLY ONE WUSHOCK!

Me and my dad were some of the bad Shocker fans who left after the 10th inning. It just didn't seem like it was gonna go well. And we were right for a half an inning.
Great comeback win for the team. Maybe.. just maybe.. this could be a stretchy turning point. I dunno. What a great walkoff win though against the Kittens. That streak was freaking embarrassing and I'm glad it's over.
Really wish we would've stayed. I was about ready to punch out some 15 year old Kitten fans who were just drowning me with their ignorance. Yea, I realize they were only high schoolers, but my God, they were hard on the ears. Not to mention every once in a while the grown-ups threw in their two cents. I bet they couldn't name one player on K-State's team.
I was so ready with some ammo if after the win, but I wasn't driving so I had no choice to stay, so I didn't get a chance to use it in the end. Biggest freaking bandwagon fanbase in history. Especially loved the KSU Wildcat chant when the Kittens finally tied it up.
I have little confidence in this team winning 3 in a row. Now they have to win 5 in a row to grab a title. That might be asking too much this season, but one can only hope..Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

Micah Green continues to be absolutely en fuego. I am too lazy to look it up, but he has to be hitting around .400 over the last four weeks.

The improvement Micah Green has made since the beginning of the year to now is simply remarkable. Great persistance and perseverance shown by this young man.
Walker Davidson may have to change his name to Hoover.
With the exception of the passed ball in the 11th Bob Arens performed very well in his first start and in front of a big crowd (6,722).
Very solid work by Zach Beringer (perhaps his best outing of the year), Grant Muncrief and Cale Elam.
Very happy for Tyler Grimes. The young man has taken a lot of flack this year (no doubt a lot of it deserved) but he was certainly clutch tonight.
At times this team seems to be competing against itself. But tonight was a feel good win and it's nice to remove the KSU monkey from our backs.

That game was just like the entire season right there in the span of those 11 innings.
You feel great getting 2 quick runs. Then throw in a couple more. 4-zip good guys. K-state gets on the board on a ridiculous balk call, but Springer gets it right back. Meanwhile, Beringer is cruising but probably getting near a pitch count and it's just too good to be true. Change pitchers and the wheels fly off. K-State ties it up. Pitchers lock in. Extra innings. K-state scores in the 11th without getting a hit. Shat. Shox load the bases with 1 out. Strikeout. Single by Grimes. Game over. Dogpile.
What a rollercoaster.
Beringer was very good. Elam was locked-in. Muncrief stopped the bleeding. The rest of the relievers had trouble.
Nice defense most of the night. The botched bunt defense was downright ugly. Grimes and Davidson made play after play.
It was a fun night. Big crowd, nice weather.
What about the late-inning K-state reliever that was chucking it in there at 93-94. Holy crap.
A fun baseball oddity happened tonight: Drew Rainey threw exactly 1 pitch and got the win.
