Keys to the game tonight - thoughts?

[4shocks]

Prediction:

Capra continues to struggle finding the plate. He'll walk a lot of OSU hitters, Gene will keep him in the game too long, and OSU will make him pay by going yard a couple of times with men on base thanks to the walks. OSU will have all the momentum and confidence in the world.

Our team will yet again, make a pitcher with an era over 5 look like a first team all-amercian and we will be held to only a couple of gimme runs.

We will then go into Monday throwing Kelley and OSU has all the momentum and the freshman not having post season experience get's rattled after giving up a couple of bombs and the game will snowball downhill for the Shox and we lose another regional while in the winner's bracket.

All the Shocker fans will be pissed, and then we will start thinking about next season and how it might be the year where the 40+ games won streak will end due to being a huge rebuilding year.

OR.....Capra dominates (like we know he can). He pitches a complete game, strikes out a season high. Our hitters make the OSU pitcher look like a little league pitcher. We go home tonight as the regional champs and move on to the supers. (maybe even hosting if things work out our way) All the shocker fans are giddy and it continues in the Supers and on to Omaha. Wow KC....How about some POSITIVE vibes for "our team" as you call it!

assuming OSU holds, anybody have a idea who they will be starting. If my math is correct they will be down to their 5th Starting pitcher

I'm wearing the same Wichita State Volleyball shirt I wore for the first two games. I hope it helps but I don't understand why my friends don't want to sit near me. :whistle:

Shox need to work the count against OSU. The more pitches OSU throws the better our chances. We cannot have another double digit strikeout game at the plate either. We need to make OSU make plays and we need to make plays on them as well.

Don't pitch to Jordy Mercer

Capra will be nails tonight...he is a tough kid and even though he hasn't had his stuff he has gotten through jams. I think he finds himself tonight and puts on a heck of a performance.

Why don't people ever believe me when I say I know what I am talking about? I am spot on folks.

Thanks for posting this before the game was over and jinxing yourself. We all appreciate it!
