We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep. If anyone here is interested in helping to keep the board running, please let me know via DM.

Re: Beat Western
Little doubt as to who has the superior baseball program. At this point the collective score is 31-6.

Bring it on, I'm not going to complain like their fans did when we hung 79 on them.

Two years in the SBC and we'll have a stronger program than WCU.

A series win over us will sustain their entire athletic program for the next five years while they're losing football games 52-3 to Mercer and VMI.

Re: Beat Western
Baseball has been pretty even over the last 5 years with us producing more draft picks. Don't let one terrible weekend skew the results. And also realize how bad the baseball is this year in the Socon, minus western. It's bad guys. After sending 3 teams to a regional last year, only 1 will go this year. The leagues drafted players will Prob be cut in half at least.
I'll echo what I've said all year. It's all about pitching. We hurt in that category

Re: Beat Western
I don't blame Western one bit for scoring as much as they can. In the same position, I'd love to see App put up crooked numbers.
My "mercy rule" comment was just on how lopsided the series has been. We haven't been competitive for one inning.
Weather permitting, I'll be at the ballpark again tomorrow. Hopefully we can avoid the sweep on Senior Day but I'm not optimistic.

Re: Beat Western
looks like the players are thinking about the end to this season, players need to show some pride and finish the season strong, this is unacceptable. What bothers me most is after last night embarrassment, you think they would have come out tonight and played a better game.

Re: Beat Western
Hard to play when the other team is spotted 4-6 runs in the first two innings. Western is just way better than us this year

Re: Beat Western
Western is playing its best ball of the year on an 11 game win streak. Hats off to them, no need to make excuses or rationalize it any other way.

Dang, there goes the pregame tailgate. Looks like it might be a washout anyway. Lots of rain on the way according to weather channel radar. It is pouring down rain in Wilkes Co.asumike83 wrote:For anyone in the area, game time moved up to noon today.

Re: Beat Western
As of May 14th WCU was #57 RPI and App was #92. By that ranking you are supposed to win. You are playing well and hats off to you. Enjoy your success. You have one more year to play us as conference members and then we're gone. I hope you can find someone else to be obsessed with and hate as much.Left Field Lunatic wrote:Enjoying the meltdown.

Re: Beat Western
WCU does historically have a better baseball program than App, I have no issue facing facts. Fortunately for us that is the only area they can say that. Crow WCU this is your one weekend all year to do so.

I guess it's not familiar enough to develop good habits yet. Good game. Enjoy the terrible remnants of the SmallCon.
