2024 Wake Baseball Thread: What Did We Do To Deserve This?

[DeacDaddy]

btw, don’t want to be a pain — but the espn feed is usually about two minutes behind the live action so minimal spoilers would be appreciated at least by me 🙏

I like to follow televised games online and make my kids think I can predict the future. "You know what we could use here? A three pointer."

10 run homer by Kurtz. Run ruled. Game over. Sorry

 

[WakeForest Fan]

Not liking the weather. Changed since I got into ballpark

 

[Pilchard]

Can’t have a situation where Burns throws a couple innings, rain suspends play and he’s out for the series

 

[IAppreciateIt]

weather looks way better at the originally scheduled time

 

[Deacsfan27]

Looks like they should have moved the game to 8 instead of up to 4 based on the storm about to pass through.

ETA: Was typing that when you posted that. The storm about to hit is going to be in the area for at least 3-4 hours.

Is it the home team, the ACC, agreement between home and visitor, or what who decides whether to go ahead and start a game or to push back on account of weather?

Nice leadoff single by Marek. Hope the Deacs can get ahead early before the rain sets in

 

[IAppreciateIt]

what are these spooky background sounds on the tv feed? is the stadium haunted? dementors?

Nick seems to be grounding into that shift a bunch recently.

have you tried telling him not to do that?

 

[Deacfreak07]

Will we ever score a run again?

 

[BoDeac]

Other than the hr blast, Burns is having a decent game. Need the bats to wake tf up asap

 

[morrison2951]

ND did.

 

[IAppreciateIt]

it's crazy to think, but his fastball might be his least effective pitch

i think sometimes it has some good ride for whiffs on it but other times it can be pretty hittable. scout at the fsu game last week said the metrics weren't great on it in terms of ride/efficiency

Just turned it on and first thing I see is a fucking bunt.

Apparently in the bottom half of the league in sac bunts.

 

[Wakelaw2006]

I don’t hate that bunt with Gill.

 

[Turd Ferguson]

I don’t hate that bunt with Gill.

In that case I don’t either.

only 38 pitches for the ND starter through 3 innings...plus talking baby commercials. not ideal.
