Seven years ago today- Trevor Fitts (5IP) and Myles Gentry (4IP) combined to throw a 3-hitter in the first round of the Lafayette Regional as MSU beat San Diego State 5-2.
Jake Vickerson went 2-4 with a 3RBI triple.
Thoughts while throwing BP continued...
5. I swear I could throw more strikes actually pitching
6. How do people do this everyday?
7. Why do hitters insist on squaring to bunt on the first pitch?
8. Nothing throws me off a rhythm more than taking a strike.
9. Turn up the music!!
Thoughts while trying to throw better BP..
1. They are supposed to drop tanks.
2. Stop missing armside so much before you kill somebody
3. I didn’t get this many people out when I was pitching
4. If

I read this quote recently, “You can tell the true character of a man by how his dog and his kids react to him.” Which caused me to feel pretty great because my dogs get hyped when I come home, but was quickly reminded by my wife that they get hyped for everyone that comes in...
I was a little to young to understand the gravity of what happened 17 years ago, but reading all the stories about the heroic men and women that leaped at the opportunity to help people in a crisis is truly inspiring.

Toughest diaper change to date... normal until she started peeing right before new diaper was on... then a sneeze poop rocket of 5 feet on to the carpet...

@nicgaddis2
@TheRealZMalcom
! These guys took a former pitcher and taught him so much about being a catcher! I can’t thank you enough and I’m proud of everything y’all did this year!
@tfitts31
got to toe the rubber today and was quite impressive. In his 1 inning of work he struck out 4, was 86-88, and had an absolute hammer! All of this was done while wearing a bucket hat! K strut looked like he has done it before!
Great round of BP today by our hitters today! Super competitive and guys putting in extra work after... first full BP for me so all high fives tomorrow will probably be left handed! Don’t know how

@murphree_mike

I worry too much about things that either don’t matter or work out anyway! I need to do a better job putting myself out there, cause the regrets will be worse than the worrying
