    A few quick thoughts before bed: - It was huge to get the win tonight. Really, really big deal there. Sets the tone for the next two days   - Grubbs is so good. Just solid baseball every sin

  • Hearing it’s not a significant injury for Spencer.

Why wouldn't the SEC series of the week be on the SEC Network main channel?  Texas as the #1 team should have be on the main channel.  Very frustrating, as I can get the SEC Network channel, but not the SEC+ Network channels here in Australia.

The TV schedule for baseball is set well in advance. When it was made, Arkansas-A&M was the more attractive game, on paper.

The A&M series next weekend is on SEC Network (Friday) and ESPN 2 (Saturday and Sunday).

Understood, but one would think as long as the games are being televised somewhere on the ESPN / SEC network, they could move them around on the available channels to ensure the best matchups are on their most viewed outlets.  I'll stop complaining, but it would be nice to see the #1 team in the nation in the SEC match-up of the week.  Craig's got me covered on the radio broadcast.

After Rembert kept the inning alive for Auburn with a two-out single to center, Ike Irish took Spencer deep to right field for a two-run home run. Auburn draws first blood in the top of the third, 2-0.

This isn't good. Spencer departs the game after getting behind in the count, 2-0.

Schloss just warned us there'd be days like this.

Hopefully, it's like Duplantier's situation a few weeks ago, where they're being overly cautious.

Big picture thinking. 

Just now, Jeff Howe said:

Poorly executed hit-and-run wipes out a leadoff single by Rodriguez. 

Perfect pitchers pitch for a hit and run and Kimball did all he could it was just a bad call in hindsight.
