I'm liking the aggressiveness, been doing that all year no reason to change it up.

It’s stupid base running.

...if they stop running into outs. Sheesh

That's this offense, no reason to change. It was a close play tried to catch him off guard.

Against Kopps you get aggressive. Against a guy you’re raking, you let your bats get you runs.

I wonder if Arkansas fans are aware of how dumb that Pig-sooie chant is.

 

1000% sure they are not.

Ran into 3 outs. Cmon guys 

Not sure what Schwellenbach is doing on that play, but the out at home is a contact play which NU has been playing aggressively all season. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. It’s worked for NU plenty this season.

Schwellenbach’s out was a mistake, going on contact to score from 3rd with less than 2 outs is not stupid.

It was also a really slow grounder. That throw a second later he's safe.

Plus it’s against a guy making his first appearance in the field in the weekend with good speed at 3rd. Opitz made a great play to catch the ball on the first base side and come across the plate to make the tag.

I’m not hatin’ too hard, the brain fart in the second was a no no, Scwhelly was stretching it, Acker is a predetermined situational decision. All different reasons and like you’re getting at, it’ll come around to benefit as well - it’s still a game of percentages.

 

edit: incorrect inning

I love that Mojo has the Pig Pen all hot and bothered.

The rule of thumb is to not make the 1st or 3rd out at home or third, that’s why I don’t love the decision.

I hope he spins a bill and shuts em up next AB

100%.

 

It's textbook baseball. Grounder the other way and the guy on third is headed home. If that ball is hit anywhere but hard right at the fielder, Acker is safe. Can't fault aggressiveness on this play in particular.
