Mike Mcdee Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Gotta respect Eratad pulling Altavila after the slow walk bat flip. 1. It shows actions have consequences and 2. Protects him from wearing one in a meaningless at bat. Plus you don't show boat when you're 10th. But he did crush that ball. Quote Link to comment

But at this point in this season, I think you go a bit more lenient and hope some of that attitude carries over into a strong finish to the season. 3 Quote Link to comment

Hope the team, who actually showed some emotion, doesn’t portray this as their coach cutting their nuts off. If what we see is what we know, that wasn’t enough to have the anger Erstad is holding. If there is more behind the scenes, then it was probably the right move. Quote Link to comment

Erstad teams have had some real nutless performances in games they needed to win. This may be the first time I saw them get angry, and fight. Gelo would have worn one, but I don't think he would have cared. I watched this team do Erstad's "grind" at the end of last year and mope around in 4 straight losses against Iowa, Maryland, Yale and Holy Cross. 1 Quote Link to comment

What Altavila did is no different than a football player celebrating after a TD, sack, etc. Let the players show some emotion after making a great play. Erstad needs to relax and let the kids have some fun because at this point, the season is basically over 1 Quote Link to comment
