Dude gets one stolen base, thinks he's the toast of the town, and then goes straight back to total garbage.

Montgomery is good. Keep mowing em down JV
He is just as good as the Braves pitchers from the 90s who could "dot that strike" 3-4" outside the strike zone with the best of them. Just about anybody can be a great pitcher if you get those kinds of calls.

Breggy is feeling it
Absolutely wild that we only have 2 hits.

xBA on 6 different outs
.580
.510
.490
.450
.450
.370


A .370 xBA might seem like a good chance to be a hit, but it's still 63% chance you're out. I don't know how to calculate expected number of hits for those numbers, but I bet it's only two or three.

So far we've whiffed on 4 outside zone and fouled another 3 outside the zone.

Ignore the last. The others are like flipping heads 5 straight times.

Charter sure does shake his head a lot at the ump for a rookie. Might want to log a few seasons before getting so cocky.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

The team has a .356 xBA on 14 AB. That would mean 5 hits.

Yesterday when I said something similar it was sarcasm. Today, it is feeding the baseball Gods.

Thanks. It still doesn't seem that remarkable. It's not like we're expected to have a dozen hits.

That means middle of the bat contact and middle of the zone?

Another run would be massive here. Eliminate the variance of one of those pop ups getting enough backspin to fly out

Love watching JV watch the pitch clock - making that batter sit and wait. CJ did the same thing.

JV is challenging them and they're under it.

(only balls in play)


The only hit is the fastball way above the zone.

The amount of bad swings we've had on that curve ball is amazing. Says a lot more about Montgomery than our hitters. Let's get the other pitches before he gets to that 2 strike curve
