mytwocents-28 Posted February 7, 2012 Report Posted February 7, 2012 BC gonna run away with this one.
PhatMack19 Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Posted February 8, 2012 Lamoine looked good in his 1 inning with 4k's. 90+ on the FB on his 6'4" frame will get pro scouts attention.Brett Brown went 1.2 striking out all 5 batters. His curve is one of the best I've seen. Both aces look to be in midseason form.

They used them in college last year and the offensive numbers dropped dramatically. Look for lots of small ball this year and not many homeruns.
PhatMack19 Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Posted February 8, 2012 It was 4-1 Nederland when I left. Both teams will be solid, just a little rusty. I wouldnt want to be in Coach Robbins shoes, he has some tough decisions to make with that roster. They have some very good ball players that won't make the starting lineup.
PhatMack19 Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Posted February 8, 2012 [quote name="bigdog" post="1173880" timestamp="1328667252"]What inning?[/quote] It was around the 7th when I left. The scoreboard was off so I'm guessing.

PhatMack19 Posted February 8, 2012 Author Report Posted February 8, 2012 Raines also looked very good on the mound striking out the side. He may be Nederland's #2 if Duplant can't play.
adminbaberuth Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Final Nederland 7 Bridge City 2Both squads pitching were superb as both teams had a total of 6 hits with BC with 4.As mentioned Lamar signee Brett Brown and UH signee Jack Lemoine both looked sharp.
thedogs1987 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 This is simple. Put the best 9 players on the field. Players who hit and solid in the field should play, whether or not who they are.Other schools may take leftovers from Big Ned who are not getting their time on field, good is good and the best should play. Silly not to......[quote name="PhatMack19" post="1173872" timestamp="1328666964"]It was 4-1 Nederland when I left. Both teams will be solid, just a little rusty.

Not a bad problem to have at all, just not that easy to make out a lineup with all of that talent.

I went to our scrimmage against Bryan today, and their was maybe 5 hits between the schools. I only stayed for 4 innings and it was 1-0 Bryan when I left. Both of our hits were doubles, while Bryan had 2 singles and a double. You could see rust on both teams, but I guess that was to be expected. Sounds like both BC & Nederland are going to be good, as usual. I Hope to catch a Nederland playoff game this year.
thedogs1987 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Hitters hit. Plain and simple. This will bring the game back to things like bunting, being patient at the plate and the hitters coming up with Big hits. Definetly, tipped the game back to the pitcher. Lots of pitcher's duals ahead of us.[quote name="BrenhamFan" post="1174054" timestamp="1328673702"][quote author=PhatMack19 link=topic=95660.msg1173864#msg1173864 date=1328666737][quote author=vp32 link=topic=95660.msg1173844#msg1173844 date=1328665618][quote author=PhatMack19 link=topic=95660.msg1173840#msg1173840 date=1328665486][quote author=bigdog link=topic=95660.msg1173832#msg1173832 date=1328664929]score?[/quote]It's 3-1 Ned in the 5th or 6th.

thedogs1987 Posted February 8, 2012 Report Posted February 8, 2012 Not if a team is loaded with hitters who are hitting that good pitching.....You can't win a game 0-0. Someone has to score. If the pitchers are that good, someone has to hit, right? No BB, no HBP which marks good pitching.

Jesse Floyd beat Beau Hale 1-0 on a passed ball to advance us to State. I didn't think anyone would ever score the way those 2 guys were dealing that night.
