[Gizamecock]

Does the local Columbia radio station still carry the games? If so, which one and can we access that live feed from the station webpage?

[DCGamecock5]

Does the local Columbia radio station still carry the games? If so, which one and can we access that live feed from the station webpage?
I did for the ECU games so I'm guessing you still can! The Station is 107.5

[Cocklover]

Does the local Columbia radio station still carry the games? If so, which one and can we access that live feed from the station webpage?
the local radio station is not carrying this game and you can access it on the web with a cost.

[ColaCock]

I called 107.5 yesterday and they said the game would not be covered. Unless it is SEC game or Clemson, no radio.

Unfortunately, and I HATE it, I had to sign up for the All Access. I will pay it for 2 months and then drop it. I know I bitch about it and it's only 20 bucks, but I think for that much- we could get better than a web cam for the coverage.

Anyways, GO COCKS!

[IHateOrange]

Im headed to the game. go cocks!

[LollerCock]

Go Cocks! Good luck, Nick!

[Cocklover]

nick retired the side in the first inning!

[ColaCock]

wow only 7 hits, guess we make them count. Sure seems like you have reported more than that

Their errors take away from us really...they have had silly errors that have canceled our would-be hits out.

[ColaCock]

Batter is walked...wonder why we took Nick out?

[LollerCock]

Nick Godwin did a great job pitching today for the yardCocks.

[ConwayGamecock]

11-0

yeah, I had a lazy "Submit Reply" button there....

:lol:

[RbrewDawg]

that always made me mad when i pitched, give up 4 hits and don't get the chance for a complete. should have left him in, prolly want to give some rookie guys some in-game senarios

[ColaCock]

3 outs....Gamecocks coming up with the bats...

[LollerCock]

Batter is walked...wonder why we took Nick out?

No need in keeping a possible weekend starter out there longer than he needs to be. No need to chance an injury from throwing too many pitches. He's had shoulder problems since early in college, stuff he had to have reconstructive surgery on (he's just now getting back to 100% of what he used to be); they don't want him throwing 120 pitches.

[ColaCock]

Wingo walks...

you're probably right, he was just looking really good and I hated to see him leave...

[ColaCock]

Reese walks as well...runners on 1st and 2nd. Merrifield is up...

[donbgamecock]

Man, Wingo sure is getting walked a lot. I guess when they get to the bottom of the order they're tired.

[ColaCock]

wild pitch! runners advance to 2nd and 3rd!

[ColaCock]

Shot into center...centerfielder makes a great diving catch, but runners still tag up and score one.

12-0 Cocks

[ColaCock]

i gotta head home guys (i've been at work this whole time). i'll keep updating when i get home if we are still on.

[Igloogigoloo]

Thanks Cola... updates greatly appreciated!

[LollerCock]

One thing I want to point out is that Nick Godwin didn't walk anybody. Only a single and a double. If we can keep opposing batting averages to .100 all year, we'll kick lots of ass. (Of course if we play UNC-A every game we'll win it all, haha)
Promising start for Nick.

[gamecock671]

[acejrock]

[LollerCock]

And the last batter is struck out to save the goose egg. Good game guys!

[heathbates]

[papasmurf]
