Pretty significant shakeup in today's lineup. Amader leading off, with Click batting second and the Bishops in the 3 and 4 spots (where ballcoach says they should be). Madi Clarke, who has 2 ABs all year, is DP. I'm starting to think Erich either is hurt, or there is an "issue"

Chase on the mound.

Ball coach has arrived in Radford. This dump is only .001 better than Longwood.

What do you think of the lineup? See if you can get us some intel on why Erich is not playing.

Scoring opportunity with Bishop on second and 1 out. Next two hitters strike out looking! Swing the bat!!

[Cider Jim]

LU leading 3-1 in the 6th inning.

We get the win 3-1 behind the 3 hit pitching of Cassady and DiMartino. All 3 runs came in the 4th inning.

[ballcoach15]

Pitching saved us. Hitting was fair, but we left too many runners on base. I liked batting order change.

[olldflame]

With Amader and Click at the top of the order, Dot had them bunting quite a bit. Without much success, unfortunately.

[ballcoach15]

Our short game must get better.

[olldflame]

Wow. McFarland gives us the lead on a solo homer and then we load the bases with 1 out. Autumn hits a fly ball which would have scored another run, but apparently Hoffman left too early and was called out on appeal. 1-0 in the bottom of the 5th.

[olldflame]

DiMartino in with out in the 5th and gets the next 2 batters. GREAT job by Chase today!

[olldflame]

We win 1-0, as Julia closes it out for her second save of the day. Madi Clarke may have won the DH job today. 2 hits in game 2 and a sac fly in game 1. Happy for her. She's a 5th year Senior who hasn't gotten to play much. Hopefully she can keep it up.

Runner tagged at 3B. Bad umpire. He shafted us all week, including at Virginia Tech Tuesday.

[Dalegarz1]

Longwood swept Presbyterian (no surprise). Their next series is with Winthrop while ours is against CSU. I believe we have the same conference record but they hold the tiebreaker. We both have 6 league games remaining. I hope the bats come alive in the next few weeks or we will be on the outside looking in for the NCAA tournament.

[ballcoach15]

I think returning home will help the hitting. Last 7 games have been on road.

It’s amazing how many Umpires, Referees and other Officials are out to get LU isn’t it?

I wonder why nobody mentioned Radford girl getting called out at home in the bottom on the 6th with no outs when she was obviously and clearly safe and us up 3-1. The mother of all blown calls If the right call was made RU would have had a big inning instead left the bases loaded and didn't score. I guess the home umpire doesn't like RU.

[ballcoach15]

I have personally known that umpire for 20 years. He makes at least one bad call a game, that people will talk about for 3 days. Most every close play he has he blows it. But ask anyone at game or those who watched it on TV, I believe all will say the LU runner tagged.

If she tagged, but left too early, she is still out.

Irrelevant. Umpire hate LU

[ballcoach15]

Those who think umpires are not shafting LU, I suggest they attend the games or watch on TV. Then judge for yourself

Oh no, I certainly believe you. I remember attending Annual Rules Meetings in Greensboro and Atlanta. Each session there was a 1 Hour segment entitled ‘How To Shaft Liberty’. I imagine if they did this for basketball they do it for every other Sport......

[ballcoach15]

One thing to remember, these BSC umpires are on bottom of umpire's roster. The good ones are in P5 conferences. The ones getting assignments in Radford never get assignment in Knoxville, Auburn, Athens, Gainesville, etc.

I crashed an umpire clinic at UVA, once. All they covered for 3 days was posture and positioning, and signals. Nothin about strike zones or safe/out.

Ballcoach, don't fall for it. Purple is pulling your leg. And his pants are on
