TELL EM, Unca Kyle!!!

[Kyle Steward @MSUBulldog76]

@uncle_rico__ @LFKJay LOL. I just spit out my coffee. Kansas and WVA have college baseball traditions? So many CWS appearances. NOT. They draw regular season crowds? NOT. SEC fans would say..."Welcome to the party, amateurs."

Dropped Cincinnati baseball in Cincy last night. Having hauled Central Mich. in 1990 I was fortunate to renew friendship with now Cincy head coach @BischelJordan. Great coach, but to watch him interact with his 3 boys & wife makes him really special. He gets life’s priorities!

[Everett Kennard @Dogbusdriver]

ABSOLUTE no brainer. Even the bus driver has stories. One of the most unique people with whom I’ve had the pleasure of working with. I miss my friend The Pirate.

[Jay Perry @jay_perry]

This is a no-brainer. So really fortunate to spend a few years on Mike Leach’s staff at @HailStateFB. I didn’t spend near the years on his staff as some people, but goodness do I have a lifetime of stories. That started the day we left the airport!

[Dr. M•A•C @iyhiamac]

We are headed to @NCAASoftball Women’s College World Series in OKC to cheers on my alma mater @HailStateSB. So proud of this program and @Coach_Ricketts.

Just an unimaginable tragedy. Rachael’s Dad, Robbie, worked with me at MSU. Just a great family that continues to be dealt setbacks. Strong people of faith that with prayers will get through this. Love y’all! E

[mile.high 🏴‍☠️ @HailState_CO]

Rachael was a friend of mine in college at Mississippi State. She was one of the most kind humans I've ever known. They adopted kids and shortly thereafter found out her husband, Ben, has a high grade brain cancer. This is an unimaginable tragedy. Please consider donating MSU fam

[Samantha Ricketts @Coach_Ricketts]

Dawgs are heading to OKC.

Hard to put this feeling into words. Just incredibly thankful for these young women, this staff, and our university for believing this was possible.

Starkville vs. Everybody

#HailState 🥦

With almost all of the AQs captured, and about an hour until hosts are announced, here's how NET, DSR, RPI, and KPI would *straight-seed* the tournament.

First up, NET

[Austin (BaustinTV) ⚡️🏴‍☠️ @AustinEast27]

Nathaniel Lowe with his 2nd homer of the day!

3 RBI across two games today for the former Diamond Dawg!

[Austin (BaustinTV) ⚡️🏴‍☠️ @AustinEast27]

Since getting recalled to the Rangers (May 8th), Justin Foscue has racked up 11 hits in 35 at-bats (.314 BA) with 6 RBI, 2 Homeruns and 3 Doubles!

Small sample size but Foscue is rocking a .913 OPS right now!

[Everett Kennard @Dogbusdriver]

Why would anyone be surprised??

[Pittsburgh Pirates @Pirates]

MANGUM. CLUTCH.

[Austin (BaustinTV) ⚡️🏴‍☠️ @AustinEast27]

After Justin Foscue’s 3-Hit night last night (including a HR and 3 RBI), he finds himself hitting 2nd in the lineup for the Texas Rangers tonight!

[Everett Kennard @Dogbusdriver]

Take a deep breath, Dude, You will recover. Don’t blast these guys like that!!!!

[tristan🐾🩷 @tristanrking]

aidan shouldn’t play another game for us. completely unacceptable to bench V and then put in someone who cost us a run rule and then give up even more runs afterwards. you are FAILING your team. ESPECIALLY your pitchers.

[Everett Kennard @Dogbusdriver]

Welcome home, even though you got on different colors. My life has led me to great people, and you are one relationship I dearly cherish. You mean a lot to MSU baseball and are welcome in my box anytime. Love ya man

[Daron Schoenrock @CoachRock43]

Had a wonderful day in Starkville catching up with some of my mentors, friends, and wonderful baseball people @3strikes_AU @Dogbusdriver and @CoachRonPolk . Blessed to have these people in my life. They have all impacted many lives.

[Everett Kennard @Dogbusdriver]

Oh! You stop???

[Jay Perry @jay_perry]

That is a fact!

[Everett Kennard @Dogbusdriver]

Slow Friday for you, Jay?

[Jay Perry @jay_perry]

I gotta be honest when I approach a 4-way stop where the cars arrive at similar times, though not exact, I have anxiety about how things are going to go

I prepare my “horn honking hand” just in case. I anticipate everyone will throw the rules out the window. And then it happens …

Just like that, everyone does the right thing! Like, what? Are you serious, Clark?? What was almost chaos turns to perfect traffic order.

Faith in humanity restored!

[Everett Kennard @Dogbusdriver]

Another Diamond Dog to the Show!!

[Texas Rangers PR @TXRangersPR]

Rangers transactions for Tuesday:

-INF Josh Smith placed on 10-day Injured List (right glute strain), retroactive to 5/4
-INF Justin Foscue (#14) recalled from Round Rock (AAA)

[Everett Kennard @Dogbusdriver]

Huge thrill for me https://t.co/6qrAvtGn4s Ken Meyer, member of the 2000 Notre Dame baseball team stopped by Box 30 to visit. I was privileged to haul that team during their stay at the regional Paul Manieri was the Head Coach. Brian O’Conner was the pitching coach. Small world

[Everett Kennard @Dogbusdriver]

Shout out to Logan and Joel and especially Bryce. This may be one of the best interviews I’ve heard. A must listen if you haven’t heard it. HailState!!

[Joel Coleman @JoelTColeman]

If you get the chance, highly encourage you to listen to the latest Dear Ol’ State as @loganlowery & I visit with @BryceChance4. All Dawg and always has been.

John Cohen always told me “Coggi” is the best evaluator of talent in the business. He will be a head coach soon. Cut out of the Ron Polk mode: Just married to the game of baseball

[Jay Perry @jay_perry]

I don’t think @_Will_Coggin gets nearly the credit he deserves. He can flat coach offense. Young assistant head coach that will (and should) be a head coach in this league (or another P4 conference) soon. I could see him taking another former @HailStateBB player, Nick Ammirati @Coach_Ammo17, with him.

That is a really talented team.
