A Cold One

Few fans braved the cold weather like we did at Autozone Park to witness Ole Miss defeat the Memphis Tigers 8-4 last night. The game at Autozone was fun and the ribs from the Rendezvous were even better. The cold weather kept alot of Rebel fans away, as this is usually a game full of loyal Rebel fans that make the trip from Oxford. After the first couple of innings our bats got rolling and we never really looked back. Pitching was good and Bukvich has rebounded well since his 0-2 start. Once again though our outfield play was not great. As stated many times before Mark Wright does not hustle or pay attention in the outfield. He flat out dropped a fly ball out of his glove that a tee-baller could have made a play on. The same inning Jon-Jon Hancock trotted to a ball in left that caused the Tiger hitter to get on base. Overall though this was a good game for the Rebels and a booster before they travel to T-Town this weekend to take on the Crimson Tide.
