Northern Colorado @ WSU (Game 1)

[ArtVandalay]

To paraphrase Major League, "Ah, who gives a ****? No one's watching anyway." The game is in the second inning, and there's no game thread. Shocks get on the board with a walk, blooper turned triple after the right fielder falls, and a seeing eye single.

I just came here to complain that the ESPN3 camera feed makes watching this team even more painful. I think the right fielder fell. They didn't show it. The camera guy appears blind and can't follow the baseball.

They look like a bad JV high school team right now.

Pretty bad but not as terrible as Chicago State/Howard/insert customary doormat here. 7-9, RPI of 188 (out of 299).

They must not have any players taller than 6'

Their RPI right now is in the mid-180's. So they are about the same quality of team as last year shocker team.

I am not currently willing to accept that this year's WSU team is markedly better than last year's WSU team.

Now we are back to playing Shocker Baseball. Couldn't go a game without a few passed balls.

I haven't looked, but I'll just assume this means we've gone back to Troutwine for some unknown reason.

Need someone at .200 in that cleanup spot.

He's already 4-4 today?

I guess I meant something hitting under .175. He's 1-3 and shows as .167.

Shockers won 11-5.
