Solid W. Showed some grit in this one, wasn't easy. Pulled away thanks to the big inning... With our offense we always have that chance at a crooked number. And we got some nice innings out of the bullpen to hold them at bay... You can take something from every game and this ended up being a good win.
Thought Prager threw well... Attacked the zone and a lot of strikes. Went right after them. Good fastball, had life... Secondary was solid also. Wonder if he might've been on a pitch count... Cortez is fighting it a little. True freshman, just working through some things and developing his full repertoire... He'll be fine. Just needs more time. Ton of potential. Wyatt had great action on his breaker. All his K's when he struck out the side were the slider... He has a great arm. Johnston another really good outing. Nice appearance for Hogan, maybe a tick erratic at first but settled in well. Fastball had good life and threw some decent breakers. Really like Hamilton's delivery. Athletic and has some explosion... Awesome action and depth on his breaking ball in his first AB. Up to 91, threw strikes. He's definitely someone to watch going forward.
Offense with another great performance and double digit run total. The steals were huge early, 5-5, directly led to the first two runs. This lineup can beat you in a lot of different ways. Rock had a huge night obviously. His swings set the tone. Bost had a great swing on the line drive up the middle... Everyone did a great job grinding out AB's overall.
Good way to head into another big SEC series... SC hasn't been good on the road but coming off a home sweep could give them a boost. I'm sure they'll show up motivated against us. Have to keep that same mentality we've had and play like we're capable of... Definitely a good chance at another series win. Crowd should be awesome, some summer baseball weather also.
