UNC Baseball

[ChapelHillSooner]

Bases loaded, no outs all because we bobbled an easy double play.

One thing about having streaming live TV is that at times like this I realize my feed is delayed by over a minute.

 

[ZZLPHeels]

Welp, that easy double play just cost us the CWS.

Great season, but it doesn’t matter if you forget how to play baseball when it matters.

On to football.

 

[nycfan]

Gotta find a way out of this down only 1

Double play now but geez.

Welp, the bats got some work to do to overcome the defense collapsing behind a great pitching effort by Lynch.

 

[BillyL]

What a collapse . . Oh Lordy.

Good patience by Vanderbrake in a situation you know he was itching to overcome his error with one swing.

Shit. Maybe shoulda tried the bunt?

 

[nycfan]

Uggh.

The heart of the lineup couldn’t produce a tying run. Gotta hold the line in the top of the ninth and have the bottom of the order find some magic in the bottom.

But the body English of the team since the error seems pretty down.

 

[Milk and Cookies]

I can’t believe he took out Lynch

 

[nycfan]

1-2-3 inning

Three outs left for the Diamond Heels to make some magic.

 

[nycfan]

I can’t believe he took out Lynch

After that error? That many pitches thrown, two on, none out, he almost had to pull him, IMO.

 

[nycfan]

Welp. One out left. French up

 

[nycfan]

K to end the game and the Heels season comes to an end.

Harsh to see this season collapse on fielding error but the bats didn’t come through to get us any insurance runs while Lynch pitched a masterpiece.

Dammit.

[BillyL]

Oh well . .

Dammit.

Yup. We did the equivalent of airballing two free throws to ice the lead with 45 seconds left. No clutch genes.

 

[Carolina Fever]

Why does a fielding error on a routine play seem to cost them so often in the CWS? The year they had the title in the bag imploded because of a bad throw to first on a routine grounder. And today it was a routine double play that was bobbled.

 

[Paine]

Proud of the guys. It was a really fun season. Tough to get to Omaha, and they deserved to get there. Just a bad couple of games at the worst time.

Pressure?

Dammit.

2 of the 3 phases were subpar today.
