quote:My hope is fading...here is Kingstons post game: "Hi I'm Mark Kingston and I sit and watch as my team progressively strikes out more and more and I refuse to shake up the line up unless an injury forces me to. I allow my batters to leave the bat on their shoulder unless they get a grooved over the heart fastball or hanger in the zone homerun pitch. I hate my players protecting the plate. I think we can rely on 9 walks and 2 homers a game as my strategy. Oh and I love to call for two bunts in a row with men on and 2 over .300 hitters facing a pitcher the 3rd time thru with wind blowing out. Furthermore i will pull my pitcher when he has a low pitch count and is rolling so I can make the game close".
But again, hopefully we just take care of business tonight. We’re getting through the early part of our SEC schedule by the skin of our teeth.

Small ball can be difficult to watch but it does help manufacture runs against some better pitchers. Van Horn used to use it a lot some years ago and won many games with it.
I guess it’s like choosing layups over shooting threes.
Take what you can to win and it looks like it’s working for you.
