1-1 after 2 listening to the Sean Moth broadcast. Good to have him still with the program in some capacity
It's unreal how a ump continues to call pitches off the the plate strikes. He is consistent with it though.
Cards bats are lethargic but the pitching has been very good. The Dowler kid looked great on the mound.

Another dropped pop up. Unbelievable how poor this team has looked so far this young season.
Hopefully things change but this team looks like a Sun Belt team at best.

Look for the young guys on this team to push their way into the lineup and build something from it. Might not happen this year but...
What in the world is wrong with this team catching pop ups and fly balls? Yes it's windy tonight but there's no excuse for not even coming close to catching these pop ups. The ball is not being blown over their head, it's landing in front of them. It's ridiculous and makes the team look like a joke.
Pretty good throw by Benson. Glad I hung in here for the rally.
Decent crowd tonight. Probably 600 or so.

That home plate umpire has no business being employed for college baseball. He obviously has a blind spot on the right side of the plate. That last called strike was three inches off the plate at least.
Wind was blowing out pretty hard. Rushing’s HR was probably a routine fly ball on a normal day but hey I’ll take it!!
Yeah it definitely was a routine ball. I was at the concession stand on the first pop up that fell in right field but I saw the second one later in left that led to Xavier getting back into that game.
The way the wind was blowing,that was probably Benson's ball.
Couple of things. They don't quite have a feel for each other yet on the communication and the outfielders are playing really deep. I have faith that those type plays will not be commonplace all season.
Humphrey is going to be good. He uses the whole field.
Pure pull hitters are going to have problems with all the shifts.
Rushing is going to have to hit balls squarely to even have a shot at hits. I liked his opposite field homer. Needs more of that to stop people from shifting on him.
Humphrey is a guy that looks like he's guessing less than others and seeing the ball really well out of the pitcher's hand and just going with it. I thought Binelas came a long ways adjusting to the shift last season.
There are some guys that move it around but somebody said it in another thread- some swinging for the downs too much.
When did that happen? Last I ran into Wass was at a travel ball tournament and he was the HC for Eastern or Central Michigan.
It may have happened as late as Jan 2022. I think he was at Lake Michigan College much smaller than eastern or central Michigan.
