Wake Forest 2023 baseball season thread (Deacs end historic season with extra inning loss to LSU: Final record 54-12 and top 4 finish nationally)

The horrible 3-2 call that led to the Bama homer in the 3rd and a tie game needed to be made right.

THIS

Hats off to Sullivan, that was a legendary performance in an insanely high pressure spot. I am way too fired up.

yup

 

[BoDeac]

It was. Awful. Fucking. Great.

Corona admits he went around on the check swing in the postgame interview. That'll chap some Tuscaloosans

 

[DeacDaddy]

I understand that each ump has his own strike zone that you have to adjust to. That’s baseball. I just don’t get why they can’t maintain it for nine innings.

It’s like the game moves too fast for these guys much of the time, or they’re too easily manipulated by crowds, or something. But that’s precisely what they’re supposed to be able to overcome.

Wake got a call against Alabama on ESPN. I’ll take it.

 

[IAppreciateIt]

that corona homer will hopefully go down as one my favorite wf sports moments ever

i mean there is a reason there is a limited number at the MLB level. Theses pitches are coming 90+ and moving all over the place. it's amazing they get as many righ as they do

Maybe a mad bama team in game two will be an unfocused unhinged one.

That's why they're not in the majors. At least a number of them.

Sean was sick nasty. I have fire in my veins right now

 

[wake20]

The Shelton AB was particularly impressive. It looked like he had about as much of a chance to make contact as I did.

These Bama clowns caught WF on a slow offense day. Gonna beat them down 10-0 tomorrow

LOL, that last strike was not really even close.

It must have sounded like a strike!

 

[tbird]

50% completed...Got to get the brooms out for tomorrow!

 

[morrison2951]

their #9 hitter had the game of his life and they still lost, dumbo elephants

Guess we should pitch around him tomorrow....

 

[Haros]

6 (or 7, but let’s stay with 6) more wins!
