#18 Wichita State @ #16 East Carolina, 3 Game Series

[Downtown Shocker Brown]

Have 8-9-1 in the 9th. Did well enough to get back to the heart of the order.

One step at a time.

[ShockerFever]

Felt a bit too good about 14 runs getting put up yesterday. A little more dose of reality tonight.

Not feeling good about tomorrow with Barnhouse starting. We'll see if the bats decide to show up.

[Play Angry]

This seems like it could develop into a fun rivalry.

[1972Shocker]

ECU has been the better team tonight. Maybe with a little help from the umps. And looked like they were not going to let Alec beat them. I probably would have done the same.

This seems like it could develop into a fun rivalry.

Agreed. Tried stealing there with the express purpose of being dicks. Glad they got thrown out.

Huh? It's only a 5 run game.

[Cdizzle]

I'm not saying the book of baseball says you can't do that, I'm just saying after watching the first 17 innings that's what was going on.

[Cdizzle]

Troutwine gets one back quickly.

[Downtown Shocker Brown]

But, looking at out ability to hit the ball, they thought they would for the first time tonight test Gunnar. Bad decision. Time to make them pay for it. Starts with getting one on base for Jenista and him finally coming through this weekend.

Love that from Troutwine. Murder the baseball, sit the bat down, trot the bases.

[Cdizzle]

No idea what Ritter was doing swinging at pitch 1. I'm getting on board here, but that kind of stuff still drives me nuts.

[Cdizzle]

Lets get the series tomorrow

[Downtown Shocker Brown]

Sometimes they just outplay you. How you respond is key. See how ECU responded tonight.

We need to answer back bigger tomorrow.

[Cdizzle]

Hopefully more of the runs and less of the acting like we've never played a big game before we saw in the ECU response.

[Cdizzle]

Really thought we played pretty well tonight, just not well enough on the road against a good team. Would really like to pick up the series tomorrow.

[1972Shocker]

We hit the ball okay tonight but perhaps the timeliness of our hits wasn't the best. We just couldn't seem to come up with the big hit at the most opportune times.

They will probably continue top pitch around Alec until some guys step up and make them pay for that.

[Cdizzle]

Or at him. Wallace did well at 3/4 behind Bohm, problem was Bohm kept coming up with the bases empty. RItter and Jenista 1/10 with 6 Ks kinda killed the offense this evening. Add 0/4 from Boyer in the 9-hole, and it was a no-brainer to never pitch to Bohm.

[ShockerVille]

Taking a road series in this conference is extremely important/tough especially against one that will likely finish in the top 3 of the league. Big game tomorrow lets win a series tomorrow!! go shox
