Speaking as a Marietta ex parent, your son at Denison is in great hands.  Coach Deegan was well received by the parents I spoke with last year.  Their only regret was that their sons were Seniors and did not have any years left.

My favorite current Marietta player Alex Toth has only struck out 6 times in 130 at bats.  Few runners try to steal on him, rarely misses a game behind the plate and has worked his way to the OAC  leading batting average as well as an outstanding defensive catcher( 5 errors as a Soph, none as a Junior, and 1 as a Senior) helping his team win back to back World Series Championships.  He has my vote if I had a say in the matter.

Marietta sweeps Otterbein today.  5-1  10-1 great pitching for Marietta Brockmeier gives up 2 hits in 7 and Finlin gives up 4 hits in 9 innings.

MARIETTA, Ohio – The Marietta College baseball doubleheader at the University of Mount Union has been postponed until Thursday (April 4). First pitch is scheduled for 1:00 p.m.??

I have stated very publicly that Alex Toth is my second favorite player behind only my son.  I would say he is by far the hardest working most humble player since Danny Jones.  His value to the team and pitchers the last three years cannot be measured with only stats.  He along with quite a few other players represent Marietta and Div III Baseball very well.

Marietta over Ohio Northern big in both games today in Ada 13-4,  16-0.

Etta wins 8-5 over LaRoche this afternoon.  Great to see the return of Catcher Alex Toth after suffering a cut requiring three stitches under the eyebrow during the doubleheader Saturday.  Brockmeier goes 3 for 5 at the plate, scored twice, added a rbi, no errors in the field, and pitches 2 scoreless innings for the save.  After the game, he was spotted dragging the field and sweeping the bleachers.

  yep 6th error in 3 years behind the plate, replace him!! Great performance from a middle infielder turned catcher between his freshman and sophomore years in college.  Outstanding work ethic.

Congrats to Marietta's Alex Toth being selected as OAC player of the week for his hitting and catching abilities.  He is currently leading the team in hitting average and was a gold glove winner  last year.

In defense of Toth being selected to the all tourny team some other numbers of importance:

Toth  3 for 9 in 3 games not 4, 1 K, 2 rbi 3 BB,  threw out 2 stealing, no stolen bases allowed, team 3-0
Stotler 7 for 12 in 3 games      , 1 K, 6 rbi, 1 BB, 5 stolen bases allowed, team 1-2

different strengths, different weaknesses, I'll take Toth
