I agree Dr Acula....I think you and I agree on most things!!!


action is back up on the live stats and it looks like the 8th was a good one....Marietta win and advances.

FINAL
MAR - 8
JCU - 7

Dr. Acula

Man is Cameron Cimino swinging a hot bat for the Pios!  I believe he's now 7 for 9 so far in the tournament.  Ridiculous.

Anyone know what the story is with Hickey from JCU?  I noticed in the box score from game 1 that he was replaced late in the game.  I assumed possibly because they were down big and maybe Thibeault wanted to get an upperclassmen an AB or something.  But then he didn't play against Etta today at all.  I hope he's not hurt or anything, but I can't imagine another reason to remove the conference's leading hitter from the lineup.

both offenss are rolling, only OTT is the one that is cashng in.  They have once again scored runs with 2-outs....so far 3 of them this game.    Marietta hit into a bases loaded DP to end the first.

Middle of the 2nd
OTT  - 4
MAR - 0

Cimino is on fire right now, hitting everything!!!!  he's 3-3 in the game, with a triple and HUGE 2-run HR to tie the game in the 4th at 6-6.

End of 4
OTT - 6
MAR - 6

Dr. Acula

If there was any question who the POY is this year I think that debate is all but pointless now.  I thought Cimino was the frontrunner anyway, but how can you argue against a guy that plays like this when it matters most.

that will be interesting, b/c I know they used to have the coaches meeting to determine the all-OAC teams, POY, etc on the first night of the OAC tournament (Wed or Thurs night).  If that's still the case, the tournament stats won't factor in to it...we'll see.

ughhhhh , these live stats keep getting stuck...and with Cimino up with no outs and a runner on, and down 7-6 in the 6th!!!

mideastfan2

finally, live stats are back!!   looks like both teams had some chances in the last two innings, but no one scored.

Bottom of 8th
OTT - 7
MAR - 6

Cimino, Beatty, Levens coming to the plate.

Cimino k's (now 10 for 15), then Beatty follows with a HR to tie the game 7-7...he's been hot this tournament too (8 for 13)!!  Levens singles, moves to 2nd on a wild pitch, and scores the go ahead run on a 2-out single by DeSico. 


Top of the 9th

OTT - 7
MAR - 8

Dr. Acula

Holy crap...I just checked the live stats for the PAC championship.  Thiel blows up for 8 runs in the top of the 2nd only to see W&J score 16 in the bottom half of the inning.  16!!!  Then Thiel comes right back and answers w/ 6 more in the 3rd!  Talk about a bad day to be a pitcher.  W&J needs a win to force a winner-take-all title game.

Franklin beat Mt. St. Joe's and moves into the HCAC championship game(s) against RHIT this afternoon.  Franklin needs to beat RHIT twice.

^^^^^ crazy!

Otterbein scores 2 in the 9th, and now leads 9-8.  Marietta has Cimino and Beaty coming up 3rd and 4th in the bottom of the 9th....things could get interesting.


******* side note - with all the high scoring games this tournament, it shows how there isn't a clear-cut domitating pitcher in the OAC this year.  will be interesting to see who gets the Tekulve Award.

What a game between Ott and Marietta!  This one looks as one of those games where you like to be the home team with the last at bat as Marietta is!

^^^ i agree.  just like the 06 and 07 seasons between these two!

Saunders singles, and is bunted over to  2nd...it's up to Cimino and Beatty.

mideastfan2

HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beatty homers with 2-outs, and Marietta wins 10-9...classic!

Sounds like an exciting game. Nice win for Etta. Will they have anything left to take down the Berg? Can they fight off a let down after 2 emotional one run wins?
