Needed Litwicki, unless they are saving him for NEB 

[Brass Cannon 24,611]

We bunt too often. Or we try to bunt too often. We are rarely successful 

[Aaron 4,286]

Hopkins who saved us last time, had a very unproductive at bat this time fouling off strike 3 and runner stays at first with one out.

Yes.  You don't EVER, EVER save a pitcher as a very wise college coach once told me. You always use your best arms with game on line and never manage for future. Mercer managed for future and he paid for it. I hope media grills him about that this week. He is a smart guy but violated a cardinal sin in baseball. 

[Certified Sunshine Pumper 9,054]

Yesssssss

[Brass Cannon 24,611]

Let’s not blow the two run lead this time 

[Aaron 4,286]

HR Fucci to dead center after a long at bat! Now please bring in Litwicki. If you are going to go down, do it with best arms. 

[Hoosierfan1901 6,215]

YES

This color commentary guy is REALLY good.

Yep what if neither Nebraska game is close.  Saving him for the future doesn’t do you any good. Win the game that you need him to win.

Fucci goes deep. It’s about time we saw him.

Inning over. Hopefully we use Litwicki this time.

Tucker

[Aaron 4,286]

Ugh. Now its Braydon Tucker. Mercer is determined to save Litwicki which is a cardinal sin.

Horrible. Mercer has some explaining to do.

[Hoosierfan1901 6,215]

No offense Tucker, but we don’t need you right now..

Which if we win people will pretend is a genius move

Even if they win its not a genius move. Its getting lucky making a terrible decision.
