Overall, Missouri hitting sucks, their strength is their pitching but it is not overly deep. They have 2 good starters (which I wouldn't think would pitch) and their #3, #4 have ERA 5.13, 6.35.

Their typical midweek starter Peter Fairbanks (started midweek against MSU both times) was used for 3 innings in relief today in their extra inning loss to Mississippi State. Shox should have a pretty easy time of it I would reckon.

Shockers up 2-0 early

[tru2thaduce]

We need Gardner to round into form if we are going to do anything in the Valley tournament.These starts are important for Chris from here on out.

[tru2thaduce]

I would love for this to become something we do on a regular basis.Its real neat seeing the Shox at the K.

[shocks02]

3-1 Shox, bottom 3

[ISASO]

That's the 3rd crushed ball that refused to leave the big ol' park.

[SB Shock]

Shox melting down in the 6th with bad judgement, walks, passed ball and bad pitches. Shox started the 6th leading 3-1, now tied 3-3, with no out and runners on corners

Since I do not carry CoxSuxCox, I went out of my way to watch this game at my parents' house tonight.

If this ends the way I think it's going to, this may be the last WSU baseball game I can stand to watch this year.

[1979Shocker]

I sure hope we don't get beat by the third best team in Missouri.

[ShockerFever]

Who wants to bet WSU doesn't score again and just goes through the motions?

Especially now down by an insurmountable lead of 1?

[tru2thaduce]

Aaron is normally reliable.Now we melt down on the mound and can't get on base with a 4 pitch inning.

It doesn't look very good. MK said, when trailing after 7 innings, the Shockers are 0-15.

[SB Shock]

Shox with runners at the corners with 1 out - EXECUTE NOW!....please

[SB Shock]

Tied up 4-4 with a Baker sac fly in the 8th
