Okay not to be a pain because this is a really solid win and i dont care how we do it - but not knowing much about baseball, I would think that 6 pitchers is an awful lot? Anyone care to expand on that?
It is a lot of pitchers, but from reading the article, and just using how USC hit us last time we played, he probably just wanted to have a fresh pitcher in there at all times. You donât see that approach a lot when you have guys doing a good job, but hey, you canât argue with that result.
Good quote by the USC coach:
âWe knew how good they were, it wasnât one of those deals where they slipped up on us,â Tanner said. âThey outplayed us. They outpitched in some key situations.â
hah nice to get a little respect⌠rather than âwe had a horrible off gameâŚâ or âthey got luckyâ or any of the other stupid quotes ive read this year and others from other coaches in other sportsâŚ
Great win, this will finally get us top 25 rankings which we fully deserve.
Excellent. Keep it up!:biggrin:

Itâs pitching by committee. A lot of teams do it during the weekday games. Instead of using a starting pitcher, you use a bunch of relievers and no one goes more than 2 or 3 normally. Hagen probably wouldâve pitched longer as the starter even though heâs always been a reliever, but he really struggled in the 2nd inning.

yep, and yesterday Hall and Hibbs managed it as well as Iâve ever seen it done. Hall was so pumped he ran out of the dugout with the bases loaded K in the 4th.
I canât believe there is whining about how we won.
Okay not to be a pain because this is a really solid win and i dont care how we do it - but not knowing much about baseball, I would think that 6 pitchers is an awful lot? Anyone care to expand on that?I remember back when we played NC State in the NCAA tourney they used like their entire bullpen. I remember at one point around the 6th inning they did something like bring one guy in who threw maybe two pitches and then brought another one in after him. 3 pitchers in one inning.
I only remember this because it was so annoying to see all these guys come in, warm up, then get taken off the field. But we were winning too so it also felt like NC State was squirming. I loved it.
EDIT: After looking at the box score for that game it definitely felt different than it was. NC State only used 5 pitchers. Their starter had 5.1 innings then the rest had 2.1, 0.2, 0.2, 0.0.
I can't believe there is whining about how we won.Not one person has done that.
Nice! Now time to email some Gamecock co-workers⌠:biggrin:
Itâs not up on the âOâ yet???

They do have some big donkeys down there in Columbia. lol
âDouble play!â -Carolina fan with 2 outs already.
One of their fans even broke out the old âhowâs your football team doingâ when we were exchanging smack.
They def werenât as bad as last time tho. I was actually disappointed. Old âHamboneâ wasnât even there I donât think. I guess there wasnât as much riding on this game.

Teamâs with ****ty football teams should NEVER bring up football in an argument.

I donât know who it was, but some kid was really obnoxious sitting near me with a Ninernation shirt on. He spoke 10 decibels louder than anyone in some prepubescent voice- making fun of the intro music the whole game and insulting in general to every topic that came to his mind. Iâm glad whoever it was came to cheer, but this kid and Uh-huh donât leave good impressions of what most Niner fans are.
Congrats on the win. Thatâs a good team you beat. I know my Pirates had a tough time down there to open the season. (got smoked the 1st game, smoked them the second game and lost in extras on the 3rd game)
