5-4 FIU T9

Last chance for USM. Top of the order coming up.

Bases loaded, 2 outs for Bowen. FIU going to the pen.

Bowen grounds out to 2nd.

Panthers win 5-4 in front of 769.

Franklin now is 9/9 stolen bases.....has a comparable OBP to Monte with a 1/3 fewer at bats.....Monte has 1 with a much higher slugging percentage.....

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Eagles leave seven in the last three innings...keeping that bat in the shoulder to get deep in the pitch count is really working out for us. Nine more strike outs tonight, five looking....

i was kinda hoping Bowen would keep the bat on his shoulder that last plate appearance with the bases loaded and being 0-4 on the day with 2 or 3ks.

update on Franklin's BA/OBP/SLG....

Fred Franklin Southern Miss CF .262 .360 .262

that puts his OBP higher than Boyd, Keating, and Donaldson.....

he also has only 4 fewer runs scored than Monte with 66 fewer appearances at the plate.....

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..........9/9 stolen bases.......that's quite tasty.....

oh yeah, Franklin only has 5 fewer Runs scored vs. Guidry with 49 fewer plate appearance....Guidry is killing us at the 2

Berry seems to like to put his one man in the two spot. I think thats stupid.

We just haven’t been able to get much from our DHs this season.

I would say “SHOULDN’T HAVE CUT VIAENE!!!1111!1111” but he’s hitting .202 in D2.

which lends to why Wallner should be the DH and on the mound in any capacity....

regardless, when your DH is hitting in the 6 or 7 slot, that's not a good sign long term....

just move Guidry to the 6 and put 'speedy' at the 1, and move Monte to the 2.....Berry has nothing to lose moving forward at this point....

you could swap Guidry and Keating at the 6/7 if you wanted.....their stats are almost identical....however, Guidry gets on base more.....therefore, I put Guidry at the 6....

the numbers justify these moves.....to be honest, I'm tired of repeating myself....

I don't make the numbers up off the top of my head.....they're right here for all to analyze....

At this point, I wouldn’t mind just throwing Keating back in there and dealing with the Ks. At least you get power and speed.

Offense would probably be fine if Guidry or Irby were hitting within 30-40 points of what they were last year.

First pitch from Miami is at 11.

with that lineup, we get what we deserve if we lose....

how in the fk do you DH Maack???

BA/OBP/SLG
Casey Maack Southern Miss 2B .222 .327 .333

Keating still isn't 100%, I think. He pinch ran last night so he may be close to returning.

Reynolds picked off at 1st to end the inning.

Cue Augie Garrido's "HOW CAN WE ******* GET PICKED OFF AT 1ST BASE?!?!?!?"

Reynolds must've thought Jon Lester was on the mound with that Lou Brock/Ricky Henderson lead he had.....wtf was that???? he got picked off by 4 feet....

another botched DP by Lebo......he was lucky to get the guy at 1st.....

it's unreal how many mistakes he's made in the last few weeks....his fielding is killing us....

Not really sure what Maack gives you that Bowen doesn’t bring more of.

I’ve said all along that Berry seems to just be grasping at straws instead of letting anyone stay in the lineup long enough. You get about three games to hit at a .300 clip and if you don’t, you’re back on the bench. He may have to accept that .220-.250 is the best we will get out of that spot.

Montenegro 2-RBI single scores Irby and Boyd. 2-0 USM B3
