WSU vs. KSU, REGIONAL Game Thread, Friday 2 PM CST on ESPNU

[ShockRef]

1st comment on baseball team...

but this is not top level D-1 pitching.

Elam was... just really bad.
Minnis appears to have decent stuff, but placed in a rough position.
Beringer looks like it's a major struggle to consistently throw strikes.
McGreevy throws BP, period. If you don't throw hard enough to break a pane of glass, at least have movement on your pitches. Nada.

This is really, really hard to watch.

[GoShockers89]

Baker really swinging it well today.

2nd and 3rd, 0 out with Casey up.

[GoShockers89]

Coy with another double, 12-6 with runner on 2nd and 1 out.

Really need another run or two here to stay in it.

[GoShockers89]

KSU digs deeper into the bullpen.

1st and 3rd, 1 out for Micah Green in 5th with WSU trailing 12-6. Green is very due for something other than a strikeout on a pitch in the dirt.

CALLED IT. double play ends the inning.

How about a first pitch double play?

[ShockerFever]

Welp, glad our pitching and fundamentals came to play because I'd feel pretty good about our chances normally with 6 runs scored through 5.

Green with a predictable double play to end the rally.

[SB Shock]

11 walks or HBP so far - kemnitz sure had his pitchers in the right frame of mind.

[RoyalShock]

Another HBP. Yay. That makes four.

[GoShockers89]

That Alaskan's porn stache is pretty ridiculous.

[RoyalShock]

That Alaskan's porn stache is pretty ridiculous.

Jenn Bates thinks it's glorious. @SubGod22: is now trying to grow one.

[ShockerFever]

And promptly a run is given right back.

Mateychick continues to airmail them into the backstop.

Embarrassing.

[shocker22]

This is embarrassing. And the umps have been Terribly inconsistent.

[GoShockers89]

Unlucky break for Tobin on the balk...but at least he's eating some innings. And man does he ever miss comically badly when he misses.

13-6 to the 6th. Shox three runs away from giving me false hope.

[GoShockers89]

RBI double for Dearman, 13-7. Runner on 2nd and 1 out for Bayliff.

At least the offense is showing some fight. I honestly thought we'd fold up and lose this something like 15-3 after the first.
