KZSU announcer: “Stanford pitchers are having trouble gripping the ball.” Say what?

10-9 now. Like clockwork.
Two meltdowns in one game.
HBP. Now 10-10. Still one out with the bases loaded.
We lose, 10-11. Wow. The bullpen should take the bus home and think about what they did.

Most, if not all, of the arms in the bullpen are searching for confidence. The problems seem to magnify as the game grows later. Since Mathews has already thrown twice this weekend I think it would take an all hands on deck approach until at least the fifth or sixth inning to put Mathews in position to go the rest of the way. There is not a shortage of talent or options in the bullpen but in order for this team to compete in June, more reliable arms have to appear!
(Naturally after a post like this we will have a 1-0 type game this afternoon)

Phew. We get out of the top of the inning having given up only 2 runs. Could have been worse. We still lead, 5-2 after 7 1/2.
Bowser with his second and third RBIs of the day. Now 7-2.
