Yeah, maybe. But when you’re consistently hitting that same spot, have good pace, good body language by the 3Rd inning you usually end up earning that call. That’s what happened here. Umpires respect that
Remember that we are also off to the right of the pitcher. So things that might not look like strikes to us might actually be strikes when you’re head on
The Ump stayed consistent with his zone though. A good pitcher pushes his limits and finds ways to get what he wants. Great performance staying at 94-97
@@Underratedmen yes but a majority of the time the hitter gets the advantage so giving a college pitcher a little bit of leeway is kind of good. Also as a hitter, you have to learn to adjust to those types of strike zones.
@@robertpollard4571 what?!?! Hahaha...great college hitters hit .400 and they’re very rare. That’s failing 6/10 times. Saying “the hitter gets the advantage” is laughable.
@@Underratedmen they’re high level batters that need to adjust to strike zones. Umpires aren’t robots that do the same thing every time.

CJ Rodriguez. The MLB franchise that gives him a shot will look pretty damn brilliant. That young man can receive better than any catcher in college baseball right now.
Grew up playing ball with his dad and uncles! All outstanding ball players. Jack reminds me of their oldest MLB pitcher, Kurt. But AL was the most recognized. Great times
you clearly have never played baseball, you never say no hitter while it's going on otherwise you jinx it. guarantee his teammates didn't say it before it was over too
When you let the first base runner of the game get on base, the last thing you’re thinking about (as a starting pitcher) is, “how do I turn this into a no hitter🤔”
A lot of comments about how WIDE the zone was. Doesn't matter. As long as he was consistent and called it the same on both sides..it's all good!! Hitters should recognize how it's being called early in the game and adjust accordingly. As such, a DOMINANT PERFORMANCE by Leiter!!!
@Will Turner I don’t care how old you are, that stuff is filthy wether your in the bigs or not. I believe they could both pitch in the MLB right now, especially Leiter his fastball is just electric
They both locate upper 90’s with wipe out sliders, scouts are literally drooling over these guys and it wouldn’t surprise me one bit if they go 1-2 in the draft.
@Will Turner Hey give them a couple years in the minors, I'd bet everything I have on Kumar dominating. He was a first-rounder in highschool who happened to want to get an education first.
I used to live on the UES and in grad school I would spend the weekends studying in this coffee/cafe spot called Effies. Al would be in there with his son and I would here them going through all the box scores and pitching matchups for the day. Being a baseball junkie I thought it was awesome. This was 2009/2010 so Jack was prob 10. Pretty cool to fast forward 10/11 years and see this.
Love how the kid at 2:50 is standing out of the batters box with his back foot and no call by the umps. He could be touching the line but he appears to be out.
So, unless I missed something, if he hadn't of walked the first batter of the game, this would have been a perfect game? What a SHAME. A no no is still baller though
i hit a double off of him one game in HS. I think career VS him I was 1 for 11 against him.... 7ks.... he accounted for 3/4 of my strikeouts my senior year...
I guess no one has seen him pitch on Carolina. He elevated his fb ALOT. In every game I have seen him in. If they laid off it, the results would be very different
Great pitching performance. Smooth compact delivery. Terrible Home plate umpire job with the biggest zone ever. completely expanded side to side and above and below zone.
It's almost like Vanderbilt has a team full of scholarship players when all other teams have 4.5 scholarships. How they ever lose is game is the question.
His stuff will play in MLB, but I hope Vandy tries to preserve his arm. I know wherever he goes they won't let him throw more then 105 pitches as a rookie. So many arm issues these days seeing such a high pitch count worries me about his future.
Yeah I agree, but teams are so afraid of arm injuries these days. Idk if that's a lot for college, but doesn't happen to often anymore in MLB; Especially for the youngsters.
@@BenFishing23 yeah they seem to be all about preserving young arms now. Some guys are built for a bug workload and some arent. He seems to be super mechanically sound with tons of body power so he could be an exception
Team with every player on scholarship versus the rest of the country having 4.5 scholarships. If Vandy doesn't win the national championship every year their coach should be fired.
@@mickeytollison Not true. all colleges are allowed only 11.7 scholarships. Vandy so happens to be private so they take advantage of government aid. Colleges in Texas have more of an advantage where if you make below a certain amount during the year, you go to any school for free within Texas.
Vandy baseball: First no-hitter since 2019

It’s incredible what this guy can do at this level of ball
That umpire was extremely generous with the outside strike....some of those simply were not strikes. But at least he was consistent.
Zone was huge, low strikes too
3:51 wasn’t even close yet he called it a strike
Even yesterday’s game the zone was a bit how ya going

just him and kumar rocker are better than pretty much anyone’s pitching
They have the best 1-2 but Ms State has the best pitching staff in the nation. It’s so deep it’s unreal

It’s either leiter or rocker going #1 overall this year for the draft if not then I’ll cry

Really impressive. Looks like he even missed spots and guys still weren't onto him... Reminds me of Sonny Gray.

Well, it does matter, it’s just not unfair or biased to one team. This was a pitchers box, a small box is a hitters box.
IF " it’s just not unfair or biased to one team. " then well doesnts matter Dumb @$$. >@@parkerlake5337
Leiter and Rocker are good enough to carry Vandy all the way. Good luck everyone else.
apparently you cant with the CWS if nobody on your team can hit
No they aren’t lol. Bednar > Rocker
so quick w it
Leiter and Rocker are just so impressive. These guys are literally 2 top of the rotation MLB guys who just happen to be pitching in college instead 😂

Are you still waiting
What a difference a tear makes!!
Might be one of the best college pitching matchups thru the first 7
a very generous strike zone
South Carolina’s pitchers curve ball was filthy.
The pitcher reminds me of Young Sonny Gray

Used to watch his dad on the Blue Jays. Rooting for the kid.
My gosh this umpires zone was wiiiiiide 👀
i mean hes shown that hes one of the top pitchers in college, but man that strike zone was massive lmao
Yeah, that 13th K was the worst one.
Hahaha' please stop
Love how the kid at 2:50 is standing out of the batters box with his back foot and no call by the umps. He could be touching the line but he appears to be out.
Dude got perfect mechanics the ball just exits like its shot from a cannon
lol vandy’s starting qb caught that one homerun in the tank hoodie
I never seen a catcher yam the ball to first like that before 😂😂
So, unless I missed something, if he hadn't of walked the first batter of the game, this would have been a perfect game? What a SHAME. A no no is still baller though

I wonder how Marc is feeling right about now
Was his only walk the one in the 1st inning? If so this could have easily been a perfect game, that might have been a strike.
Future second pick for the rangers
Great pitching performance. Smooth compact delivery. Terrible Home plate umpire job with the biggest zone ever. completely expanded side to side and above and below zone.
A Future Red sox Pitcher ❤️
Only if they get by the Pirates, Rangers and Tigers first......
gonna look good with the Tigers!!!
That kid has a future in baseball. The pitching from both sides was pretty good.
You don't say...
@@wyattjones7979 Well, perhaps I was being a bit obvious. Us old guys get like that.
If he doesn't go number 1 in the draft I hope the Rangers take him at 2. This kid's a stud.
Are u gonna upload the FSU vs Miami game?
Here’s to hoping he can keep his arm healthy
If im vandy coach im making jack leiter throw 4 to 5 innings max now so he can protect that arm man
10:29 what a hanger lmao
Not sure what the ump was looking like on the pitch for strike 3 for the first SC at bat in the 8th
Great stuff👍

Pitches like sonny gray
Why do the catcher throwing to first after strikeout i know like throwing around but usually to third
So Kumar Rocker is their second best pitcher. Good lord!
Without Rocker & Leiter where would vandy be?
Still on top

Tim Ambrose I hope so. Definitely rooting for this kid.
Can someone inform me how a no hitter happens cause i thought i was when no was able to get on base.
It’s whenever the other team doesn’t have any hits.
Leiter kinda reminds me of Marcus stroman
He’s definitely got the swag, style, and stuff like Stroman.
@Rambone 2.0 the way he drops and drives is more like stroman, where sonny gray is more up right. I do see what you mean tho
Leiters got some younger Grienke in him. The build, mechanics and stuff have some similarities
Eh grienke is like Maddox, he has stuff. Jack is just a tough fast throwing stud that college can’t hit.
Tate (2b) broke his hand when he through that bat. Bad loss, Tate and Young had good chemistry going on defense/ Not to mention Kohlicks hitting.
4.26 is when he uses the sticky stuff……lol
As long as Pittsburgh get either him or kumar I’ll be happy
Reminds me of Roy Oswalt.
Should’ve been a perfect game, that was a strike on the first batter
Welcome to the Rangers!
Awesome would be even better without the first walk
