Houston / UCF

[1309th WAVE]

to the 6th, score still 7-5 UCF

[Roller]

...Our postseason hopes rely on a UCF win.

Actually, we control our own fate. We simply have to win the tournament. A Houston win might make that more difficult, but it does not destroy our chances.

Our team must adopt and exploit an attitude that we will win every game from here on out. I'm not completely sure of the playoff format, but I think we need to go 4-0 (or perhaps 5-1) to take the automatic berth.

[1309th WAVE]

whether or not ECU's really motivated to win Clearwater, they can still roll through most of this conference without trying

if we could avoid their side of the bracket, it would behoove us in my opinion

Of the pool of UCF, Memphis, Cincy (and us, naturally) UCF might be the toughest one to beat but it's definitely preferable to the other pool which would be stacked by comparison

[1309th WAVE]

UCF doesn't even pitch to Joe Davis

quite frankly, they have the right idea

[Roller]

When David walked out to confront Goliath, he was not thinking, "boy this will be tough. I sure hope I can survive."

No, he was thinking, "The bigger they are, the harder they fall."

[1309th WAVE]

while I do like the go-get-'em attitude, I do not like the thought of pitching to Joe Davis at 8 in the morning

We do only need to control what we can control, but we've had some issues with trying to control what we can control, if you know what I mean

UCF comes to bat B6

[1309th WAVE]

leadoff double and a single, UCF has runners on the corners with no outs

[1309th WAVE]

Non-DP is turned on a DP ball, runner scores

8-5 Knights

top of the 7th, bases loaded 1 out
UCF will go to the pen

[1309th WAVE]

sac fly, 8-6

[NJwave]

Loaded for Davis with 2 outs. He delivers and tied at 8.

[1309th WAVE]

Joe Davis has tied the game

[LondonWave]

I guess you have to pitch to JD when the bases are loaded...

[1309th WAVE]

2nd and 3rd 1 out for UCF

they... held the runner at 3rd and the throw home ended up sailing over the catcher

We've seen that movie before.

Hullabaloo!

heading top of the 8th 10-8 UCF

[NJwave]

Dumb question. Why didn’t Solesky pitch yesterday? Pitching today means he is not available to start until Thursday. Thus, if lose the opener we are going with Gillies or Johnson in game 2.

[NJwave]

Bottom 8. 10-8 UCF.

It's been unofficially officially confirmed we'll go with Johnson regardless of if the game's Wednesday or Thursday

from there, anything goes pretty much

Solesky is pitching better than anybody the last few weeks. Top 9th still 10-8. Top of order for Houston.

leadoff double

it's mathematically impossible for joe davis to not bat this inning

Unless he gets tossed arguing somebody else’s balls and strikes. They intentionally walked the tying run in Davis. That is some stupid cajones.

We need to win a minimum of 4 games. Solesky cannot pitch them all. We need to count on everybody, and I'm not going to let any doubts creep in to dissuade me from believing in the team, despite the frustrations we experienced along the way. It's not how you get there; it's where you end up.
