Auburn Regional Sorta Live IV

After a walk to Momma G's, a good sammich and a couple of blisters, we're ready to roll again.

The only thing I've wiffed on so far has been the weather problems and judging by the clouds, I'm not far off of that.

Somebody get the live chicken ...


AUBURN v. CLEMSON

AU Top 1:
Your Auburn Tigers have kept the offense going. RBI double from Fletcher and an RBI single from Morris gives Auburn a quick lead and a lot of momentum. AU 2, CU 0

CU Btm 1:
One hit, but no danger.

AU Top 2:
A hit that nearly decapitated poor ol' Lamb, but no runs.

CU Btm 2: Another hit. Still no real harm.

AU Top 3: A double from Mummey goes unused. Still, Auburn continues to hit the ball hard.

CU Btm 3: Sorry for the delay. Tech difficulties. Anyway, apparently Under Armour doesn't have a sunglass line and that has cost Auburn. Fletcher lost one in the sun in left and Clemson got a run out of it. Fradejas almost misplayed one in right, but I don't know what the issue was there -- Dramamine, maybe. Anyway, new score: AU 2, CU 1

AU Top 4:
Couple of threats but nothing to show for it ... except for a new Clemson pitcher. You got that going for you, which is nice ... I guess.


CU Btm 4:
Nothing much.

AU Top 5:
Fletch F. Fletch has left the yard with a two-run DOOOOOOONNNNNGGGG. AU added another run on top of that and I've made early dinner reservations at Provinos for tomorrow night. New score: AU 5, CU 1

CU Btm 5:
Uh, yeah, might've spoke a bit soon there. OK, no might about it. The visiting Tigers have bounced back to score SEVEN runs in their half of the fifth. Everybody in the lineup doubled at least twice in the inning. New score: CU 8, AU 5

AU Top 6:
There's a sign that AU will not be going quietly. Mr. Fradejas, who would never make it in Arizona with a name like that, is doing just dandy here, thank you. He DONGED one over the big, green wall. New score: CU 8, AU 6

CU Btm 6:
Nothing much to report.

AU Top 7:
Just think of me as Bobby Boucher's girlfriend. Your Tigers get two runs in odd fashion -- walked one in and an infield single for the other. New score: AU 8, CU 8

CU Btm 7:
Back they come. A walk, a sacrifice and a two-out double puts Clemson back on top. Score: CU 9, AU 8

AU Top 8:
There was a chance there. Had a runner at first and then at second for Morris and Caldwell. But Mighty Casey popped out and Caldwell struck out. One shot left.

CU Btm 8:
Nothing but one loud out.

AU Top 9: Crede Simpson drinks free tonight. Simpson's three-run, pinch-hit home run with two outs allows Auburn to see another half-inning and possibly another day. New score: AU 11, CU 9

CU Btm 9:
Tying run left at third. See ya tomorrow.

Final Score: AU 11, CU 10

Still listening to ISP guys. They said they would love to talk to Crede but couldn't because of NCAA regulations, but they can talk to Patterson. Anyone understand why the difference?

sorry cause i've been out of touch, if we and bama both win its an au/bama super regional??

I have an acquaintance who was an Anteater, collegiately speaking, of course.

8:59 PM  
Blogger wellsAU said...

YESSSS AUBURN!!!!!

When Creede was down 1-2, I was pretty nervous. But the second he made contact everyone jumped to their feet, it was either a double off the wall or a DONG. AND DONG IT WAS!!!

9:04 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

wow, I feel like I'm watching AU's infielding. OU takes the lead on a walk and 2 infield misplays, all after 2 out.

9:04 PM  
Blogger Honey said...

Thanks, Jet, I couldn't figure that one out.

9:05 PM

Ladies and Gentlemen - it is ice cream time.

9:06 PM  
Blogger wellsAU said...

Our batting coach, per interview on ISP, said that tomorrow gives us every option in our entire rotation excepting Grant, Cole, Austin, Corey, and Slade.

He threw out names like Dexter Price, Zach Blatt, Sean Ray, and Jon Luke Jacobs. Sounds like a probable pitching by committee, and all four of the names I just listed have had solid outings at one point or another this year. Ray also came on last night and pitched 1 1/3 to Clemson and looked fairly strong.

9:09 PM

The starting lineup will look like a History 101 entry in the schedule of classes:

AU Baseball: 15-5 since May 1st.

When CU's reliever (the one that gave us the win) was warming up, he hit the backstop THREE TIMES in those warm up tosses. The crowd started applauding, and I think that got into his head.

9:14 PM  
Blogger Peter Frankenschmidt said...

THT,

That pick was contingent on them getting out of the Group of Death. I figured if they could win that Regional after dominating the best conference tourney in the nation, they'd just be too strong to be beat. It didn't happen; I won't be placing wagers on the CWS.

9:15 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

If I was warming up and threw THREE into the backstop, the crowd would be irrelevant. I'd be inside my own head.

9:16 PM

Blogger Miller said...

"War Damn Creede Simpson! Line up the co-eds and let him have his pick.. he's the hero tonight!"

Justin Fradejas' sister's response?
"...something tells me he won't have any problem with a fan club full of ladies tonight!!..."

9:21 PM  
Blogger CHB said...

I don't know if it was talked about this weekend, but did anyone see the bammerham new's section on the upcoming season? AU was picked to finish 4th in the west. I will be highly disappointed if we finish 4th.

9:23 PM  
Blogger Miller said...

From SEC Baseball SID...
"If Auburn vs. Alabama backed up interstate traffic for miles at 9 a.m. on a Wednesday morning in Hoover at SECs, can't help but imagine what it would be like if a spot in Omaha were on the line..."

9:27 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

it might take a little magic for us to finish 1st, but even if we are snakebitten, I'd still be disappointed with anything below 3rd place.

Just a reminder. After taking over a team that had gone 0-10 in 1950, Shug's first team was 5-5. His second team? 2-8. No, I don't see anything like that happening.

9:27 PM  
Blogger Jet said...

I expect to finish higher than fourth, but I can see how a diverse group of voters that aren't Auburn fans could pick us fourth.

9:29 PM  
Blogger Peter Frankenschmidt said...

CH=B,

Brief summar of the CSS guys (losing that and ESPN3 are the reasons I'm not switching from Comcast, even though I really, really want to).

If Newton is awesome, the offense will be awesome, because he's the only question mark (even though they named 5 starting running backs...). This may be the best offense in the SEC, Alabama's may have a slight edge, but it's slight.

The defense sucked last year, but won't suck this year...they're still concerned about the run D.

They have AU ranked at 25 in their preseason poll, yet they all agreed that was too low. Second in the west. We'll see AU in the top 10-15 by midseason, and they should stay there.

9:31 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

CSS isn't on DirecTV??? Well, there goes my motivation to switch from crappy TWC.

9:32 PM  
Blogger Peter Frankenschmidt said...

Miller,

You're friends with Fradejas's sister?

9:33 PM  
Blogger Jet said...

PF ... he told her he was Crede Simpson.

9:34 PM  
Blogger Peter Frankenschmidt said...

THT,

CSS is Comcast/Charter Sports South.


They own it and refuse to sell it to their competitors.

9:34 PM  
Blogger CHB said...

I can see how we would be not be picked 1st, but we have a few things going for us this year. We will be more experienced, we will have more talent top to bottom (this will help special teams A LOT), and our schedule is very favorable. I can see us challenging for 1st during the season and in a dog fight to finish second. I do not see us finishing worst than 3rd.

9:34 PM  
Blogger CHB said...

But who am I? I don't get paid for my opinion.

9:34 PM  
Blogger Peter Frankenschmidt said...

Late night ZING by Jet. Nice.

9:35 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

PF - much appreciated. I, too, am concerned with our run D. Can we have Tracy Rocker as a player/coach?

9:35 PM  
Blogger Honey said...

CSS isn't on Direct TV, but many times the local station in B'ham will carry the program. Like the Auburn Everyday show on CSS, local station carried it this past fall.

As much as I hate not having CSS I wouldn't trade Direct TV for anything. I hate having to deal with Charter Cable at the condo in Auburn.

9:35 PM  
Blogger CHB said...

THT, CSS is the only thing that Direct TV doesn't carry that I have ever wanted. We do get ESPNU, FSS and the NFL Network. A lot of cable companies don't get those.

9:36 PM  
Blogger CHB said...

I'm with you Cincy. Charter is horrible. I have loved Direct TV and I have had very little trouble with the losing the signal. The cable companies make it seem like it happens when its cloudy. That is not true and I think I lost cable just as much as I have lost DTV.

9:37 PM  
Blogger Tar Heel Tiger said...

TWC - no CSS, no FSS, no ESPN3
