[SycamoreinTexas]

The Road to Omaha begins tonight! Fighting Illini/Sycamores split a pair of games in the regular season.

Game is on ESPN+


Weather looks perfect for a game Tonight. Saturday/Sunday could be a little wet.


Timely hitting needs to step up in tonight’s game. Need our starters to give significant innings.

Good ole battle of good pitching from the Sycamores and good hitting from Illinois

6th time in 12 years the Sycamores have made it to the postseason. Pretty impressive. Used to be happy making the tournament, now the expectations have changed.

 

[treeman]

Yup, starting pitching needs to get deep into the game and we need to get those timely hits and we will be fine during this tournament. starting out 1-0 would be huge in this tough regional

Pom-pom lady made the trip to East Carolina with Evansville

Kentucky is thrashing Central Michigan - who look terrible.

 

[OX 92]

I am surprised how IU is kicking Southern Miss's teeth in. UK has proved they can be beaten.

MVC Frosh of Yr. LHP Deverman throws 8 inning 5 hitter (97 pitches) for 4-1 win over ECU. Those pom poms must work...

Bank, did you make the trip out there to Carolina rooting on the Eville Purple Pom Poms?

 

[EvilleSycamore]

Anyone seen who we are giving the nod to start on the mound tonight?????

 

[SycamoreSuperFan]

Golden said Davidson is getting the start

 

[SycamoreinTexas]

Davidson is struggling

 

[SycamoreinTexas]

Illinois scores 2 top of 3rd. Davidson couple walks and hits. Get an inning ending double play to get out with only 2 runs. Need bats here

Nah, but my nephew's new home in Walnut Cove would've been a perfect launch pad...

Diaz solo HR bottom 4.

2-1 Illinois

 

[SycamoreinTexas]

Hernandez doubled. Advanced to 3rd on PB. Not able to score. Better ABs that inning but still some poor swings as well

 

[SycamoreinTexas]

Pitching been dogshit for ISU. Too many 2 out walks

 

[SycamoreinTexas]

Sycamores get Illinois to strand the bases loaded. Running out of time. Need some hits

 

[bigsportsfan]

Our bats have dried up.

 

[SycamoreinTexas]

Illinois SS with an awesome dive to get Hernandez out. Tip of cap of Illinois pitcher. Hitting his spots

 

[treeman]

feels like we are playing with fire right now. Still in it, but our bats have to do something
