Yep. The batter walked right into Gibbs' throwing path. I don't think it was intentional, but it was definitely interference on the hit and run.

Nola with the bunt attempt . . . fouled off the first one. Perfectly puts down the second attempt. Sac bunt moves the runner to 2nd. One out.

Landry grounded out to the 2B again. Hanover moved over to 3rd. Two outs for Schimpf.

Schimpf up on the count 3-0.
Swung at ball four. 3-1.
Watched strike two. 3-2.
Fouled off. 3-2.
Fouled off. 3-2. Two straight off speed pitches. Look for a fastball next.

Dean takes it low. 1-0.
Dean watches a strike. 1-1.

Another double move. No throw.
Dean swung for the fence but missed. Full count.
Dean struck out. Damn! Going to the bottom of the 3rd.

Darn.

:huh: How many strikeouts for Dean in the regionals so far?

I think Jim Hawthorne is really sounding like an announcer... giving the game situation very often and sounds a lot more exciting.

Good job Jim !! .... Go Tigers !!!

Struck him out on the high pitch. One out.
