The lineup was just begging for random lefties to come in and shut down the offense. Basically, the lineup asked Boyd and Forrester to play out of their minds to make sure that no one did what Auburn did. Five lefties bunched over six hitters adjacent to two righties who can't hit? What do you do looking at that lineup if you are Hall of Fame pitcher Tim Hudson in his final season as Auburn's pitching coach? You laugh and you laugh and you laugh. Mitchy Slick got outcoached against Auburn. And maybe that was solely, because Mitchy Slick was matching wits with Hall of Famer Tim Hudson, but........ My whole point before I tumbled down this rabbit-hole is that I hope that the issue has been resolved. Like we had a whole bunch of right hitting studs on the bench.......right? Who should he have benched. Meckler, Melton, Bazzana? Our better hitters were lefties that year and your best hitters should be able to hit left on left. A Guerra, who hit .444 in Pac-12 play, rode pine. Trosky rode pine. |

And then they pulled Logan in favor of Smith, who hit .136 in conference. And then Smith had to stay in to face Burkhalter and got mowed down in five pitches. |

Guerra only had 27 conference at-bats and Logan and Trosky both hit below .250 in conference. You’ve lost the case Esquire. Give up. MC didn’t have better options to run out there. |

Good exposure, looks like the only evening game on an ESPN channel, not counting ESPN+

Logan finished with a batting average 109 points higher than Smith. Trosky finished with a batting average 124 points higher than Gretler. It is your position that the absolutely best move all along was to play Dernedde, Dukart, and Gretler and let them pick up a series golden sombrero and two platinum sombreros? 4 strikeouts between them. That was inevitable? That absolutely had to happen? There was no way around it? It was unavoidable?  All that possibly could have been done was to yell, "Stop!" loudly, while we watched the bottom of the order get slowly steamrolled? I disagree. The ultimate result was entirely avoidable. It absolutely did not need to happen. I disagree that I have lost anything. |

Lol
You're an attorney & you're dealing with 'Judge' Smails.
This is very entertaining, ........."Carry On."😄(I'm not taking sides, I like both of you.)
