Gm 57: vs UE (MVC Tourny - Elimination Game)

[Kung Wu]

Gettung exciting!

[Cdizzle]

Really feels like Ladwig has to pitch into a can.

DBP gets him out of it. And the Shox are showing a little fire on the field as well. I like it.

[SPEShockAlum]

Seems like we are getting some good swings in today - jumping on first pitches and driving the ball. Much better than the plethora of pop ups.

[Cdizzle]

Small strike zone. Winner is going to need some runs today.

[Cdizzle]

AJ, buddy, they finally got you a few early runs. Crap.

4-3 UE

[WSUwatcher]

AJ is a capable pitcher, but he doesn't have the stuff and command to cope with a small strike zone. Tough to succeed if your two best guys on the mound don't lead the way.

[RoyalShock]

Simpson is now a homer shy of the cycle.

[Play Angry]

Both teams are actually playing like it's an elimination game. I like our approach at the plate.

Isom is a less capable pitcher, unburdened by a small strike zone. AJ would kill for some of the calls he's getting.

Edit: AJ finally got a call. It put him ahead in the count and he induced a ground ball double-play. Funny how that works. Come on offense, pick him up!

[1972Shocker]

Shocks haven't won many games when trailing this late. Need to get his thing tied up. Playing for 1 run until we get this tied up. Not exactly a strength of the Shocks.

Need a very disciplined approach at the plate this inning. Good start by Harbutz.

[Cdizzle]

Single by Harbutz, very solid sac bunt by Kirk. Nice start. Get it done.

[Shocker85]

Shocks haven't won any games when trailing after the 7th. Need to get his thing tied up. Playing for 1 run until we get this tied up. Not exactly a strength of the Shocks.

Need a very disciplined approach at the plate this inning. Good start by Harbutz.

Fixed it for you.

[1972Shocker]

Please do not hit into a DP. Please, please, please.

[Cdizzle]

This inning may be it. Have to at least tie it, may need more than that.

Brutal strike call against Bayliff. That hurts. Should've been 2-0 with 2 on.

Popup. #%*!

FINALLY

What a huge hit for Parker, tie game
