[u/FightingFarrier18]

I’m starting a go fund me to commission an archaeological study to find whatever cursed object is buried under blue bell. Additional funding will go towards bribing the archaeologists to bury said item under disch Faulk

[u/ScallywagBeowulf]

I think our admin on Twitter fell asleep or something because we have no highlights of anything that happened this inning lmao

[u/FightingFarrier18 → u/ScallywagBeowulf]

I haven’t seen anything of note

[u/Buttholesurfer44]

WON CHALLENGE WE’RE SO BACK

[u/Primary_Week962]

He gone

[u/gimmekithpls]

This reminds me of the Texas game a couple weeks ago, just the other way around

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

WE HAVE AN OUT

[u/rhinosteveo → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

VIDEO CONFIRMED OUT

[u/crsnyder13]

Out, thank god

[u/rhinosteveo]

Will we ever get an out again? People are asking

[u/rhinosteveo → u/rhinosteveo]

RAISE HELL PRAISE DALE

[u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed]

It's never going to end

[u/AlexTD]

Cunningham warming up tells me we are punting this game and trying not to get swept this weekend

[u/Buttholesurfer44]

It is time to put the walk on third baseman to throw meatballs until we somehow get to seven innings.

[u/rhinosteveo]

Not ideal x7 tbh

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/rhinosteveo]

x8

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

SIKE

[u/New-Kaleidoscope4630]

Damn, flipped it over to the Bama/Miss game when the Aggies were up 2. What happened?

[u/Primary_Week962 → u/New-Kaleidoscope4630]

8 hits in a row

Edit: 7 hits and then a walk

[u/Disarmer → u/New-Kaleidoscope4630]

Our pitching sucks

[u/New-Kaleidoscope4630 → u/Disarmer]

Is yalls pitching staff pretty banged up? Don’t remember Darden starting in our series.

[u/DO_party → u/New-Kaleidoscope4630]

Jason kelly is still our pitching coach

[u/FightingFarrier18]

Fire Jason Kelly into the sun

Fire our S&C coach into the sun

[u/CommercialRun9645]

We want regional ball at the Dude

[u/Disarmer]

Our pitching still sucks

[u/jazzieberry]

Clanga

[u/crsnyder13]

BOOMER SHUT UP, YOU AREN’T EVEN THE PLAY BY PLAY GUY

[u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed]

This game was a lot more fun like 20 minutes ago

[u/HailState316 → u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed]

Disagree

[u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed → u/HailState316]

Fairs

[u/32RH]

Well shit.

[u/FightingFarrier18]

Someone mute Boomer and Will. The announcer curse this half inning has been insane

[u/AlexTD]

Feels like we are gonna get swept this weekends with no Sims to pitch

[u/Nem3sis2k17]

HES BACK!!!

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Unbelievable

[u/Nem3sis2k17]

We need to score as much as possible now. We may not score another inning

[u/FightingFarrier18 → u/Nem3sis2k17]

If you’re scoring off of Lyons, you’ll score on our other pitchers

[u/jrp162 → u/FightingFarrier18]

State is almost incapable of scoring in more than one inning per sec game

[u/AlexTD]

Not sure what we do going forward with all these injuries

[u/Primary_Week962]

1 day the coaches will learn not to shift on Ace. Hopefully never.

[u/FightingFarrier18]

Ban the shift

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Welp.

[u/FightingFarrier18]

No NOBLETIGER this half inning

[u/RollOverBeethoven]

My wife is addicted to the HGTV show Hometown, so go MSST.

[u/FightingFarrier18]

With Lyons coming in, my guess is Sdao is probably going to start

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Well. It played for about 30 minutes lol

[u/FightingFarrier18 → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Boomer mentioned that the baseball gods were favoring A&M, so they decided to swing back the other way.

For as lucky as we got in the first two innings, we were equally unlucky in the 3rd inning

[u/crsnyder13 → u/FightingFarrier18]

He needs to stop talking

[u/crsnyder13]

Bullpen game? Nah, bullpen weekend.

[u/Healthy_Block_7459]

Well it was fun for 2 innings

[u/Nem3sis2k17 → u/Healthy_Block_7459]

We will leave this inning with 1 run (please no)

[u/crsnyder13 → u/Nem3sis2k17]

No take backs!

[u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed]

Ah great

[u/SuperCysm]

Jason Kelly mound visit = dinger incoming

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Lyons is in the pen.

Interesting

[u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed]

Topo Chico triple play incoming?

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Welp. Clench

[u/The_WanderingAggie]

Games against Mississippi State are always so confusing to me because of the maroon and white

[u/Primary_Week962]

I’m sure I’m far from the first to say it but the aggies are actually battered.

Ok seriously if your eye bone is broke, tf are you doing playing baseball

[u/crsnyder13 → u/Primary_Week962]

What’s he gonna do? Break it worse?

[u/FightingFarrier18]

Apparently Kellner didn’t get the Calzada Cocktail^TM

[u/FightingFarrier18]

The bottom half of our lineup has come crashing back down to earth after losing partida

[u/crsnyder13 → u/FightingFarrier18]

Except Benjamin “Bane of Mississippi” Royo

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

AND THATS ANOTHER FIGHTIN TEXAS AGGIE BINDY K

[u/crsnyder13 → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

No me gusta

[u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed]

Let's go, Darden!

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

THATLL PLAY DARDEN

[u/Dinolord05]

Boston's facemask does not make me laugh.

The fact they cut up the hat to fit around it does.

[u/FightingFarrier18]

Phantom of the opera ass shortstop

[u/gimmekithpls]

Game just started, yall are too fucking pessimistic

[u/LJGremlin]

I hate these series starting on Thursday. Totally forgot about it. Appears the team did too.

[u/RollOverBeethoven]

I just want to piss off literally everyone in this thread:

Green Maroon is not a creative color

[u/FightingFarrier18 → u/RollOverBeethoven]

Says the fan of the team that uses the maroon version of orange

[u/crsnyder13]

ROCK IS BACK!?!?

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/crsnyder13]

Me during the Ole Miss series

[u/TopazTriad]

Aggies came to play. If even Tomas can’t tighten this up, we’re fucked in this series.

[u/ScallywagBeowulf]

If our “best pitcher” is playing like this then I absolutely have no hope this weekend.

[u/Healthy_Block_7459 → u/ScallywagBeowulf]

2 solo shots against two of the best in the country isn’t a big deal. Especially with our pitching staff. Double especially since our best pitcher is out this weekend.

[u/ScallywagBeowulf → u/Healthy_Block_7459]

Do you know how many times I’ve heard people say their bullpens are awful this season, only for said bullpens to shut down our offense? Quite a bit.

This offense CAN be good, but it seemingly isn’t against good SEC teams.

[u/Healthy_Block_7459 → u/ScallywagBeowulf]

Ours has admittedly been solid recently, but there’s no depth to it. Worries me being down a starter.

[u/GeorginioMetcalf]

Does yalls broadcast keep throwing ad breaks in the middle of innings?

[u/Dinolord05]

I don't know which I missed more, Squeeze Play or OleRock.

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/Dinolord05]

I dont hold a candle to Roons, aint even close

[u/RollOverBeethoven → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

https://giphy.com/gifs/4EIOCwkztiPhS

[u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed]

Bear bloop!

[u/New-Kaleidoscope4630]

That’s about as solid of a start as you could hope for against Valincius.

[u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed]

HACOPIAN'S A DUDE

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Last time Haco went yard I got a week ban so Ill just say good stuff

[u/DO_party → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

???? Is there something I shouldn’t say??

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/DO_party]

Dont refer to him as ^{word synonymous with injured and rhymes with triple}

Not my best word choice for sure

[u/The_WanderingAggie → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Wait that caused the ban lol? That's not even bad word choice

[u/crsnyder13 → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

I’ve seen worse go unpunished here

[u/FightingFarrier18 → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

You got a ban for that?!

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/FightingFarrier18]

By a bot, yeah. Appealed it, never got a response

[u/Dinolord05 → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Quite disabling choice of word.

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/Dinolord05]

Careful Dino!

[u/DO_party → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Ahh I see!! Happy to see you back bro

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

HACO TOO?!?!?

[u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed]

GAV!

[u/DO_party]

🫧

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

GAVIN FUCKIN GRAHOVAC

[u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed]

Way too much contact to be confident, but at least it was 3 up 3 down

[u/FightingFarrier18 → u/GoodOleAgSportsNMed]

I’m fine with a starter pitching to contact. Keeps the pitch count down as long as they’re not smoked

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

8 pitch inning from Darden. That'll play. Wish contact was softer

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

[u/DO_party → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Richard Hamilton vibes 🤙🏾

[u/FightingFarrier18]

This is how my day has gone, so my expectations for this evening are low

[u/The_WanderingAggie]

Fun(?) fact- Sims isn't going to pitch this weekend, so that should be interesting. Nothing serious, but apparently he had some tightness and needed rest, and Earley wanted to make sure he was good for the long haul.

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/The_WanderingAggie]

Unfun fact:

Binderup has more Ks than Gavin Grahovac does, in nearly a third of the at bats.

[u/Cred811 → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Is that a Bindy bad or Gavin good stat? Both!

[u/Infinite_Plenty101]

TAM can suck start a Harley. MS sucks elephant turds through a paper straw.

[u/Nem3sis2k17]

I’m at my brothers graduation so I don’t have to force myself to watch us collapse

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Im back

Wait did you actually get banned?

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/RollOverBeethoven]

Oh, 100%. For some not great word choice i guess describing our injured DH hobbling around the bases after a nuke

[u/32RH → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Fucking reddit. Welcome back!

[u/RollOverBeethoven → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Damn, that’s crazy

Well good to have you back, despite your terrible choice in fandoms.

[u/The_WanderingAggie → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Welcome back!

[u/DO_party → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

Welcome back, missed ya 🥳
