BB: WIAC: Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference

[cubs]

Superior knocks off Point in Game #1 of today's DH 8-3....  Seidl starts suspended game and gives up 6 runs in 6 IP, giving up 10 hits while striking out nine.

I looked at the box score of this game.  Feyereisen started, gave up two runs in an inning-plus of work.  Seidl relieved and gave up six runs in six innings.  Point never held the lead or even tied.  Why was Seidl charged with the loss?

I tweeted UWSP Athletics the same thing on Sunday afternoon thinking they would make the change.  Guessing they either don't read their tweets or just don't care.  Doesn't say a lot about their SID.  I know of a few SID's that wouldn't miss that mistake and if they did, the change would be made when they became aware of it.

Formman: Thanks for your comments on Copeland Park. I think your summary is a good one. When the Northwoods League began play in 2003, the players said they believed it would be a launching pad, but this has not proven to be the case. I believe the venue will be good for UWL and the WIAC. Your wife is right about the restroom facilities, and I hope the city will address the issue. In any case, the turf should reduce the number of rainouts.

I checked the box score this morning and Feyereisen is listed as the losing pitcher so it's been corrected.

Maybe the "tweet" I sent the WIAC worked better than the one I sent to the UWSP SID....

Can someone tell me why all of the MIAA conference games are only 7 innings? http://www.miaa.org/sports/bsb/2013-14/index

Would the WIAC ever consider this?

[badgerwarhawk]

If the teams are playing a doubleheader NCAA rules allow 1. two nine inning games, 2. one nine inning game and one seven inning game or 3. two seven inning games.  I don't know the MIAA well enough to know if all of their schedule are doubleheaders but the games indicated on the link you've provided all appear to be doubleheaders.  That would make it appear that the conference has decided their games will be seven innings when they play doubleheaders. 

I don't know why the WIAC wouldn't "consider" it though at this point in time we've elected to go the two nine inning games route. Personally I hope that we leave it that way.  Baseball is a nine inning game, softball is a seven innning game.

In my opinion, having all WIAC games be nine innings better prepares teams that end up making it to the Regionals/World Series. 

They end up having to develop more pitching depth in the regular season, and that depth comes in handy in a double elimination set-up like Regionals and the World Series.  Not a surprise that WIAC teams have traditionally done well at Regionals, and I tend to believe the success and choice to play nine inning games goes hand in hand.

No predictions for whitewater point series?

[cubs]

Whitewater scores 63 runs in the three games off of Seidl, JP, and Watson.... 

Bloom decides to forfeit last game of series and takes squad over to play Manawa Spurs to get their confidence back, but Jeremy Dunnihoo shuts them down while Adam Miller hits a solo HR for a 1-0 victory.

Sound about right?

That made my day lol I honestly think whitewater is going to score a ton of runs though.  You forgot billy Nolan he actually probably could've held this mighty war hawk lineup in check.

Who were you playing for?  Seem to think MANY of guys might have had best games ever against the Spurs!!!   

[ShineTime]

The spurs had a decent two year stretch but typically aren't very strong.  Most of the guys they had that were talented such as dunnihoo adam grosskopf and bill Nolan all moved away.  Whitewater takes game 1 against point 7 to 4.  Oshkosh gets smoked 10 to 0 vs stout with messenger on mound where's Kachel

[ShineTime]

All I can say about game 2 is gdmfsoab

[cubs]

Four teams with five wins (Stevens Point, La Crosse, Oshkosh and Superior) and Stout with six wins in the battle for the final three spots in the WIAC Tournament.
