BC Card Baseball

[Knox34]

Cards appear to be rolling with two big time pitchers.  Is this the year they finally live up to their potential? 

[KF89]

2020 B.C.  team was very good & was on track to make it to state & good chance of winning it all. Not sure if this year's team is close to that good.

The 2007 (?) team that was Johnny Dishon's senior year was a really, really good one.  I believe they lost to Jasper in the regional finals, who I believe went on to win state.  The battle with between those two at Vincent Beck was epic.

yes it was! the series went 8-6, Jasper.  8-6 Bridge City  2-1 Jasper.

Then our DAWGS went on to shine in the State Tourney.

I couldn't remember the scores but knew it went 3 games and they were all good, close games and enjoyed them all.  I also remember the 3rd one being low scoring and hoping whoever won would go on to win it all (even though i was pulling for the cardinals).

This District looks like it is a 3 team race, BC/OF/Silsbee all seem to have solid clubs. Historically you would say BC, but OF & Silsbee seem to be on the rise lately.

Seems like BC is good on Tuesdays (Oceguera) and not so good on Fridays.

Hands down OF is the deepest and best team in the district regardless of the standings. BC is probably 3rd overall but they will make it interesting with how they handle their staff for the rest of district play. If BC has any luck on their side and some of the other very good teams like Silsbee and OF either beat up on one another or have an off night BC may sneak up and surprise some folks. For the time being OF can be happy they more than likely don't see BC's #1 arm during district because that has the potential to be a coin flip if that happens. Even if OF see's BC's #1 they still have the edge because offensively they are just better. BC would certainly have a "puncher's chance" because good pitching has that effect.  BC has been down the last couple of years, especially offensively, so they are relying heavily on good pitching performances, scratching out a few hits, and solid defense until they can get some help from the younger classes coming up in the next couple of years. Until that time they will be vulnerable but certainly not out of the running.  This district is always so much fun to watch and will continue to be for quite some time. Great programs from top to bottom, period.

Yes, covid got them that year.  LCM coach the year before.  Umpires against Robinson.  It's just hard for me to believe they haven't broken through with all the talent and emphasis on baseball at the BC.  This team has a Houston commit as their #2!  Hoping this is the year.

Blaming other people for your own fault. Y'all cheated and got caught. You want call out a coach for following the rules and doing the right thing instead of calling out y'alls own coach for not following the rules and doing the wrong thing.

That is their mentality and how they are coached in BC.

It is always someone else fault.

There are several folks who frequent this board that truly know the game of baseball and are great to have a discussion with and then there are folks who make comments like this one and few others in this thread. 

 

Here are few things to think about.......

1. There is no denying the rule in question that LCM called out BC on, it's in black and white, no dispute. What can be added to the conversation is that this practice of bringing up JV guys to the varsity game after they played their JV game is more common than most realize. It's happened for years. These guys occasionally get in the varsity game as pinch runners because if they were good enough to be an impact player they would be in the varsity lineup from the start. Next time you go to a varsity game take a look at the guys when they warm up, you can spot the ones who just got done playing. I'm not saying it happens every day but it happens more than most people know. 

2. Saying that a "coach got them" is a bad look. Regardless of whatever motive took place LCM gained nothing with the move, no district championship and a first round playoff exit. Bridge City forfeited the games in question and everybody moved on. At least most folks did.

3. The statement concerning "mentality" and "that's how they are coached at BC" shows just exactly how out of touch some people are. The staff at BC is one of the top in the area and the program has arguably been one of the best in the area for quite some time. You don't build a program like that, send dozens of players to the collegiate level (and now pro - Jake Lemoine) by teaching guys to blame someone else, that's just a really weak statement, by someone with little to no knowledge of the BC program, that holds no truth whatsoever.

P.S.

Umps didn't get them against Robinson, Chad Hollingsworth did. He was the Friday night guy for Univ of Texas. He was a good one.

Take the rose colored glasses off and get down out of your booster seat.

You and your son are one of THEM and you are just defending your people on the way they act.

BC players, fans and coach are well known across the state on how they act.

Never said the "landry twins" could not coach the game of baseball.

P.S.

The umps did get them against Robinson because of the way BC was acting. 

 

Maybe this is why BC has never made it all the way.

Nice try attempting to make this personal, I'm only speaking about the subject, nothing more. Never defended anything in my previous statement, only added to the conversation. The assertion was made that BC teaches their kids to blame others, not much could be farther from the truth except the comment about the Robinson game. People have every right to an opinion about any subject, that's what makes great debates and discussions. In fact, informed discussions are even better so if there is some sort of information out there that backs up some of these claims hopefully it can be posted on here so everyone can see it. If there is not anything out there then this will more than likely go down as a difference of opinions.

Bridge City is on a three game district losing streak having been shut out in two of those games. They have been out scored 19-3 in those three games. BC has dropped into fourth place in district. How long has it been since BC had a three game losing streak? Surprising to say the least. 

[Knox34]

As soon as I got my hopes up for this bunch they immediately went into the tank.  Another year of under achieving.
