Not so magic huh? Why'd the countdown stop?

Anybody have a score of the Huntingdon game??

Agree. They don't have the pitching.

Outcome of JCS and Mckenzie. Your thoughts

Well coached??? Ive been to more than 75 percent of their games since he has been the coach. Trust me, they won the state last year on talent. Coaching had nothing to do with it. His "coaching" has them where they are right now, only a 500 team playing a fairly weak schedule. They have alot of talent but very little experience coming into this year, that was where the coach was supposed to come in. The coach needs to turn his mute button off. Ok off that subject. McKenzie has some pretty good pitching, their hitting comes and goes, and their defense is poor most of the time. But i will have to tell you that their are alot of talented ball players on this team and if they come to play, they can beat anybody.

I was at a Babe Ruth game a couple of years ago and i heard a coach tell one of his players on the bench to get ready to run for the batter. The next thing you know i looked up and the kid was getting in the batters box behind the hitter. He was ready to run! All that batter was going to have to do is hit the ball and walk to the dugout haha. No joke.

Good question, where was our team?? Where was the coach?? I'm sure there is someone on that bench that can catch more fly balls in left field than 1 out of every 10. I don't think we should have been stealing on that first pitch, but we should have have been bunting without a doubt. Should have tried to bunt until he got it down or struck out trying to bunt. I'm not trying to run the players down, but they looked like they haven't ever played today. These guys are talented and have no business playing like that. When you can't catch routine fly balls and grounders, miss some spots on the mound, and don't produce runs when you have to this is usually the result. Its time for them to step up and play like they are capable of playing. Its not to late, friday is like starting a new season. All these games played so far this year means nothing now. Go out and do a job and see what happens. Good Luck!

You said it pitching scout.

Well come on up and say hi next time.

Nobody made you read this stuff buddy. It was your decision.

I was referring to their last three ballgames. And if i remember right i believe it was McKenzie with the lead most of the ballgame in game two so it was McKenzie that gave it to huntingdon. Argue if you want, but McKenzie is capable of beating Huntingdon on any given day if they play as a team. Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. Huntingdon is a good ball club, but no big threats. They have good pitching and most of the time don't make errors, but their hitting is only average at best from what i've seen. Don't get me wrong Huntingdon should win with district, but don't count McKenzie out.

Good to see McKenzie's bats coming alive. Proved the other night that they can play with Huntingdon. If their bats stay hot and keep from making costly mistakes they may take the district tournament. Ya never know

First of all try to make sense of what you say before you start running your trap.

You are probably right. That guy from huntingdon must have said his prayers before the game.

I agree. Probably has never stepped on a baseball field.

Great game. Kee did a great job. Take away those big errors, McKenzie gets the win, but that baseball.

This was a good write up but as far as Carr having more RBI's isn't that uncommon. He is in the 5 hole, so which means good hitters in front of him get on base. He may have more RBI's, but not that much more. From what i understand the 3, 4, and 5 hole hitters are all right there together. Also, as for the state championship team in 1932 we all know that is a joke. I mean come on, didn't they play for the state championship in Mckenzie and wasn't it against Dresden? Sounds like a district tournament to me. Please correct me if i am wrong.

Good question

Completely agree. If you don't make pitching mistakes and make the routine plays in the field, could be down at the big show again this year.

Thats good to hear. It don't matter who the umps are, 12 strikeouts is great especially not being a 7 inning game. I heard about the throw to second thats funny ha. Glad to see them stroking the ball and hope it continues.

Bugs is an excellent ball player. The kid can smash. I can't comment on what he threw at try outs, but just on what i have seen. I mentioned that he threw mid 80's which is gas in high school. Kids are able to pick up 5 mph through a college carreer if they work hard and he shouldn't have a problem with that because he is a hard worker. He will be a good asset to cumberland. It would be great to see these boys down at the big show again. I like you Butchie, you remind me of myself.

First of all no negative comment was made about bugs. He is a good pitcher, but He Does Not Throw 90. Also, maybe you should read what i posted on your other topic about the Rebels. Made many good comments. I just speak the truth.

As for your comment "Childesh". The only thing i can tell you do do is to not make childesh comments if you don't want to receive childesh responses. Your little comment about not wanting to ask that question with your smart A smiley faces is pretty childesh. I will agree Miami 17, They have the rings. That is a true statement. Don't know a thing about Liberty except for the fact they don't have a ring in baseball. Who cares how long they have or haven't been around. Bottom line is you decided to make your comment, so don't get mad when people shoot back at you.

I will answer for him. Bugs throws the ball hard, but not 90. Many people don't realize how hard 90 actually is. He is mid 80's material, which is good in high school. Many high school batters have problems with mid 80's. I would also like to comment on there defense. I have seen many comments that their defense will be better. I really don't see that, i mean for an example the new left fielder Kirk compared to B. Brown, No comparison!!! Brice could cover some ground in center last year as well. Infield will be about the same most likely, because they still have the big chief back there in D. Brown. As for pitching, the rebels will be fine with smith, kee and jones, but i keep seeing that all they had last year was hayes. Yes he was dominate, but everybody should know that you have to have a number two. Bo Brown was the number two and got big wins. Heck he shut out huntingdon once game and them boys can hit plus got a win in the state tournament. McKenzie should be fine this year on the mound, but hard to top a Hayes and Brown.

Drew Brown from mckenzie, hard to beat.
