A sweep against fresno would put us back in first, and make it a lot easier to get into a regional.
A sweep would tie us for 1st place and force Fresno to win 2 of 3 from Hawaii ( on the awful playing surface at Les Murakami stadium, where Hawaii has the advantage of knowing how to play under those conditions) For those who didn't actually make the trip to Hawaii or view the games on the internet, our catcher,Matt Combs had an impossible time of seeing the flight of the pitches, and appeared to be catching a knuckleball pitcher. He couldn't catch the ball like he normally does but had to stab at it where he thought the ball would end up.The reason for this was there are heat waves that rise up off that hot parking-lot-of-a surface,and it distorts the clear path of the ball coming in to the catcher (who is crouching low to the ground) There were several passed balls and "wild pitches" during that hot Sunday game. There are various other quirks to playing there that the Hawaii team has adapted to but visiting teams get burned by. Anyway.....if we take care of business this weekend I like our chances.
I take that back.......if we sweep Fresno,then Fresno would have to sweep Hawaii to finish ahead of us.If we finish tied,we have the tiebreaker in head to head wins.Come on DAWGS....sweep Fresno !!!!!
yes, a sweep is the best route to success. Of course, that is always true!
34 wins baby....keep getting better and better!
Two more games at Fresno, 1 vs NSU, and two vs ULM...
It'll take the postseason obviously, but these guys can still get to a 40 win record!
Tech is now 35-22.
Next game- the WAC baseball tournament.
Best season since I was at Tech....WTG DAWGS!!!
