You’re right on all points
Honestly we’d outperformed preseason expectations based on what we knew vs our questions re:pitching
I think the pointing out of what’s happening and WHY we think it’s happening doesn’t have to be some damning criticism of the players themselves. They haven’t “quit” or stopped trying. Sometimes wanting something so bad = pressing and getting outside yourselves.
I’m hoping that’s what’s happened and now that hosting is likely off the table they just stop thinking about how much they WANTED that goal. Refocus on other goals…top 4 seed for ACCT; ACCT chance; going on the road and continuing to flourish in our road game routines.
They’ve shown they’re not giving up in the 7th inning of each of the last 2 even down to last strike and last out…we’ve literally come up one barreled up shot short.
My in game ridiculous “reverse mojo” attempts aside…reality is I am NOT disappointed IN THEM….I’m disappointed FOR THEM and the fans that we likely won’t get postseason at TSP. BUT this season is absolutely still very much alive

Other than a rabid home crowd, being on the road is similar to the season

Hopefully the 7th inning offense last night is a sign of things to come.**
