The part I would like to know is whether or not the home plate umpire made the call on the attempted bunt or not. Few things irk me more in baseball than when the home plate umpire calls an attempted swing, they are looking at the pitch not the batter so not sure how they think they should make that call and not one of the other umpires.
Yeah I am not sure who this would favor, but giving Schwelly a day’s rest and Povich one more day would definitely be good for us. As you said, we are seeing Kopps regardless, but he has been used a lot so another days helps him as well.
I think Schwelly will be at SS tomorrow, I just hate it for his sake. He is a 1st round draft pick. If he stretches and warms his arm up properly, he will be ok. I guarantee you though he won’t feel right all game however.
Perry is a huge piece of next year’s team. Let’s hope his arm stays healthy because he has great stuff. I know the coaches have said they don’t want him pitching this Summer, will stretch him out this Fall. They will be very careful with him.
I know a lot of coaches that won’t let players go back to left side of the infield after pitching, it isn’t as easy as people think. Schwelly’s arm will be sore for sure.
Yes he did, Greg Sharpe usually calls the 1st, 3nd, 5th, 6th, 8th, and 9th and Handley does PBP for the others. They act as color commentator for the other when not doing PBP.
I am with you on the radio call, being in NY I have to listen to a lot of the games as it is. No NET or other local broadcast options out here. I really enjoy the NU baseball play by play.
BTWBryce has been awesome at 3B today! I love good 3B play since my son plays a lot of it.
I am jealous of you all getting to watch this game on tv, not on in NY and for some reason I can’t even stream it via ESPN app. All radio call for me tonight, still loving it though.
I am worried about Bunz’s performance this weekend. He has to be a guy relied upon to shut down an inning like he has all year, for whatever reason he just hasn’t had it this weekend. Tough sledding to win this regional without one of your best relievers not up to snuff.
Man that sucks for her. Considering that, I would think staying another year and rehabbing using UNL resources makes sense. Not sure if professional V teams have the type of facilities/resources NU can offer.
I imagine Arky fans were freaking out for 4+ innings today as well. Baseball requires patience to watch. Lots of people say, “have to jump on them early to steal momentum” and other analogies that work better for football and other sports. Reality is that it doesn’t work like that in baseball.
