I think its been announced that McKay is on the mound. If I were coaching I'd pitch Bennett tomorrow. It would take a little pressure off the freshman and I think off the team knowing that you'd still have your ace for Sunday if needed, while UK would be down to their #3 guy. By the way, I think Bennett is a heckuva a pitcher. It just makes me squirm a little thinking a freshman might be on the hill on Sunday in a do or die spot.

If they beat our best so be it then it's not just Bennett on Sunday but the rest of the Pitching staff. I'm just glad I'll be there to see it tomorrow.

I have to respectfully disagree. In the short series, I'm in favor of throwing our best at them earlier. Go for the jugular now and don't give them life. If they beat our best then hat's off to them.

I think the key tomorrow will be McKay getting deep into the game,if that's the way Coach goes.If he does,don't look for Bordner,unless absolutely needed.He's become a guy that can go more innings and maybe he's there if and when needed Sunday.
 
That's if we're not leading late,of course.If we are leading late,absolutely will see Big Sam.

It has to be a reason like that. 'Never give a sucker an even break'...
 
The past couple of years we have done well during the season and have had high expectations in the playoffs. Unfortunately we didn't go as far as predicted and It has been because of having the wrong pitcher in at the wrong time.
I hope if our pitcher is doing well at the end of the game we don't pull him and replace him. I thought yesterday's change was a bad one and I hope better decisions are made today.
 
0-0 at the end of the 1st I hope we can get things cranked up offensively. This could be one of those 3-2 games because of the pitching.
 
Love it !!! Love it !!! Love it !!! Drew Ellis puts one out of the park Cards up 1-0 early in the 2nd inning.
 
Ouch!! LT tried to squeeze it down the line for a hit.I hope that doesn't cost us.

Ouch on the hbp too.
 
Whew!!! We got out of that one with no damage now let's tack on some more runs in the top of the 7th.
 
The balk didn't matter, the the umpire correcting our players for pumping the crowd up is wrong to me. Go Cards!!
 
Big strike out by Bordner now we need too increase on that 4-2 lead in the top of the 8th.
 
This plate umpire is really bad he is not consistent on his calls even the announcers are commenting on it.
