He might should have been pulled after the first run scored. At least take a visit and try to calm him down. Give the pen a little more time to get ready.
Gutsy calls...the very difference between Rayner Noble and Mark Johnson. Not saying that it's good, bad or otherwise...just the #1 difference between the two head coaches.
Yeah but you don't run the players there and the inning runs the same way. You run the players and hit a line drive the inning is over with 0 runs scored. Big difference between those two situations.
2-2 trying to get him to chase some junk. Misses on 2-2 runs the count to 3-2. One hop grounder to Pennington.. Throw is bobbled by Mavroulis. Pennington one hopped Mavroulis. E-6. 2nd of the night for Pennington and he got away with one earlier this inning.
Now thats just dumb. You got picked off and got caught stealing for the last 2 outs. They let us out of that inning on baserunning mistakes. I also don't agree with either of their gambles although they didn't hurt them.
Noble's aggressiveness both jump started the inning and ran them out of the inning. When you throw a 5-spot on the board, I guess you can live with that. All things considered, we're lucky UH didn't score more...
