Michigan's Saturday Starter Perfect Game bio.. Going to be another nail biter today. Need to work on getting Allen's pitch count up. He can go long innings if we don't but.. it seems he can also get chased (no pun intended) early too... So, here's hoping for the latter so we can get into that maze & blue bullpen.
Ugh.... Kaminska let the calls get into his head. He struggled with the same thing at Wichita State... If he is squeezed he struggles more than most. Not over yet but dang it, we gained ground and then give up a run.. Come on men, plate some runs
Shoebox zone today: 132 and 131 (michigan & Nebraska) pitches respectively for the clubs through 7 innings... Ump should be ashamed of himself. Remember his name folks.. (Michael Wiseman) and hope we don't see him again this year!! Horrendous zone!!
been saying it for the last two years.. when hitters swing for the fence instead of swing for the grass and moving runners well... that's exactly what you get.. high number of strikeouts and runners LOB... Time will tell if Bolt and company can/will correct this.
I'm always surprised the pitching coach has such a long leash with his starters. Especially when it's obvious when a guy doesn't have his stuff early. Case in point (again) when yesterday's starter begins with a walk and a hbp, why wait until your deeply behind.....especially with a roster of 19 or 20 arms.....??
Just keep on winning the series and the rest will fall in place.
Also, all of the our best conference opponents (Mich, Iowa, Maryland, Purdue) all on the road.. Winning those series (1-0 currently) will help our rpi.
