This is crazy. If I'm reading the live stats right, we've had at least 4 wild pitches and 2 hbp's in just this one inning ...... and why isn't a wild pitch classified as an error?

A wild pitch is a wild pitch. An error is a misplayed ball after it's been put into play (im sure there are exceptions here).

That said, some wild pitches should be called errors when the catcher doesn't do his job. Catching aint easy though so blaming it on the pitcher works for me.

I tuned into the baseball game and we were up. A few minutes later we were down by 3 runs. 

Turned it off. Tired of the meltdowns. Reminds me of the Jeff Scott Era. It's not that we are losing. Its that we get waxed by last place teams and make them look like a top ten team.

Don’t worry is a midweek game. Oh sorry is not

Dont worry is only game 1. Oh sorry is not

Dont worry it was vs a good team? No it wasn’t 

Dont worry we still have a winning conference record. Oh sorry we dont

Dont worry we are still in top of conference. Oh no we are not

Dont worry we still have a winning record. For how long.

Im so tired of the old tired excuses. He is a nice guy but not the right guy for the job.

When you’re in the hunt in the conference and you get routed at home by the last-place team, we’ve probably seen all we need to see. There wasn’t room for that this year.

That's crazy. It's always an error, ie mistake, by somebody, either the pitcher or catcher. Same with the hbp, a mistake by the pitcher. They're all errors. Baseball complicates *** too much

Frustrating. It wasn't even close both games. 

Again, I feel like I learned my lesson from the Jeff Scott era. At some point you are who you are, it's not an off series or a wild pitch or a whatever. It's... you got throttled by the last place team. Twice. 

Anyway, I will still watch and i still care but it's just frustrating. Maybe we will surprise with some decent wins here and there. 

I have been watching the ladies more as they aren't phenomenal but they are competitive and play good ball and KE is the man. Got heated at the umps the other night it was exciting.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
