One our most solid games this year if not the most. FIU is a great hitting and pitching team. Base running cost them the most. Imagine that

Terrible headline and lead, which was copied by local media. The season didn't start with conference play. We've won every series except the opener that we split. That makes 6 straight series wins, if you count the Frisco Classic as a series. Let's do better selling our team's success.

I think we were a bit more lucky than solid today.

We made one mistake that cost us a runner at 1st for the 3rd out. Our pitching was outstanding.
We can't control what our opponent does. That's not luck it's baseball.

Can't blame FIU for being aggressive on the base paths after the way we threw the ball away the day before. They were sitting on a goose egg on the scoreboard and I bet FIU's coaches thought if they put some pressure on our defense we'd toss it into the dugout again. We got out-hit yet won the game. On occasion you can win games simply by out-scoring the other guys, ya know, games like 12-10. But for consistency, and for winning championships, you have to win like we did yesterday, not beating yourself. That's good baseball.

Agreed. Critical thinking is difficult for many (including myself sometimes).

One of the base running errors was on a guy who took too big of a turn at 3rd. He got chewed on severely by the coach. It wasn't all about aggression. Like our coaches and players, most of the base running errors over the weekend were just bad baseball.

So, now you're saying FIU beat itself and we were just lucky to take 2/3?

no just pointing out that your "aggressive" assumption was not accurate.
