Remain tied for 2nd with red hot Texas State, with the tiebreaker.

ULM came back and beat WKU tonight, so The Toppers are now two back of the 2-3 spots.

Congrats to Astate for winning today. They found a way to win today and hang on to 2nd place in the SBC. The Cajuns are still trying to get their bullpen straightened out and couldn't get the job done.

The Cajuns rpi remains in the top 7 at this time and we just need to keep winning series.

Not to question Robicheaux, but several of us at the game were confused why you guys chose to stick with a guy in the 7th and the 8th who had thrown less than an inning all year, and didn't try your luck with Bazzar, who looked nasty.

It seemed odd given how good his stuff is. I know we are very weak against lefty pitching...but the guy who was in wasn't throwing strikes.

I not sure which pitcher you are talking about. Both RHP Matt Plitt and LHP Freshman Riley Cooper have both pitched a good bit, unless they put a pitcher in that I missed by listening on the radio. You have me curious who it was?.

One thing is your bullpen shouldn't walk 3 and hit another batter in one inning, then in the next inning give up a run on a wild pitch, especially for a top 5 team.

I was glad that Carson Baranik was able to go the distance in game 2 because lately I cringe when we have to go to the pen because they have been having trouble throwing strikes and hanging on to leads.

Robichaux is not too happy right now after hearing his post game talk, especially after being an ex-pitcher himself

The Stats we had on Cooper indicated he had never thrown. Obviously it was a misprint.

Its a shame we couldn't field this weekend. Friday would have been a very different game if our fielders didn't get a case of the yips. We did get what I wanted though. Out of the weekend with a 2 game edge on WKU for 4th, and with the understanding that we can beat you guys should we meet again in Mobile.

Your stats sound off. Cooper pitched in one of the midweek games against SELa the other day. He hasn't been used much, but he definitely has some innings to his credit and he had some good stuff during the midweek. Most likely why he was given a chance today. It was our more experienced relievers, Hicks and Plitt, who blew the lead if I remember correctly. Bazar started on Wednesday, and while he only threw about 50 pitches that day, I'm sure the staff doesn't want to overuse him, so that's why you only saw him in a closing role today.
