He’s going to struggle until he starts hitting the ball to the right side.
It ain’t rocket science, and the better teams will play the shift and pitch him away as he continues to hit 5 hoppers to the SS.

Heiberger is just slinging the ball. He’s not pitching.

Better to leave Adams in than bring Jekyll and Hyde Heiberger out of the pen

The wealthy planters are the ones who put the Democrats in place for the sole reason of Seceding.

Then explain the sections of the south that voted for neither Democrat candidate, but instead voted for the Constitutional Party candidate, John Bell, and his VP candidate from MASSACHUSETTS. Bell carried the counties in the south where the largest concentrations of cotton/sugar cane were produced by the super planters.

One must recognize the great disparity in the word “planter.” Some say a planter was anyone owning 20 slaves. Some say 50.
The conservative planter I’m referring to owned hundreds of slaves and multiple plantations.
If they, as you put it, “put the Democrats in place for the sole reason of seceding,” why would they support the CU Party and neither the Northern Democrat (Douglas), or the Southern Democrat (Breckinridge)??
Google a county by county map of the 1860 election and you’ll see that in the Deep South, the CU Party support is exactly where the largest planters had their operations. You will also see lots of CU Party support in the upper south Great Smokies area who felt they didn’t have a dog in the fight and wanted to be left alone.

With all that said, there’s no doubt that a small “planter” would not share the same political views of a large planter.
The large planters had their money. They would survive the war with wealth. Even today there are descendants owning the same lands.
The small planters and dirt farmers would be ruined by the war they screamed for, not realizing that the South had little chance against the North.

bullshite. Conservatve Southern planters knew the cause was hopeless as soon as the radical, fire-eater Democrats seceded from the Union. They weren’t about to sacrifice their wallets to grow food crops for a lost cause.

Agrarian societies cannot defeat industrialized societies in a war with well defined boundaries no matter how much food is grown. Dying with a full stomach is not going to change the imbalance in steel production, railroads, and population.

The starvation was due to the wealthy southern planters choosing to grow cash crops over food for their own benefits.

Plantations were self sufficient operations. They raised enough food crops, cows, hogs, chickens, and sheep to feed everyone on the plantation. Plus trusted slaves were allowed to hunt and fish on the weekends for their personal consumption.

To say that planters should have stopped growing cotton and convert to growing food for the Confederate armies is totally stupid. The author is FoS!

Southern Democrats paved the way for secession, and Southern dirt farmers supported it. Starvation was not due to any blockade. It was due to Johnny Reb going off to fight and leaving his 5 acre vegetable patch.

It was a rough game because Bama melted down with a 3-1 lead in the 8th.

Giving up an 0-2 HR is inexcusable for a pitcher. SS had two errors on a routine ground ball for the third out, followed by another HR.

#2, 4, and 5 hitters were 1-13 at the plate with 5 Ks.
