8th inning pinch hit grand slam for Redlands gives Chapman its 11th 1 run loss in 2012 5-4.

Chapman and Redlands play a double header today at Hart Park at Orange, CA starting at 3:00 PM to end the very disappointing season for both teams. Chapman must win both games to reach .500 mark for the season. Brian Rauh(29-1 career record) will be pitching his last game for the Panthers

What an incredible career Rauh has had. Congratulations to him and his family, I am sure it will be a bitter sweet day today.

I am quite sure Chapman will be back in the mix next year. Baseball is a humbling sport and sometimes things just don't go your way, if a few of those 1 run losses could have gone the other way it could have been a very different season for them. They are well coached and are sitting in the center of baseball recruiting and like all good programs will be restocked and maybe be a little hungrier next year. The SCIAC just got a lot tougher.

Rauh is only a Junior and I don't see him being a very high draft choice.

Chapman over Redlands 5-4 in first game
No decision for Rauh.

one of those D'Oh moments....agree on the draft position.

CrashDavisD3 · May 06, 2012, 01:28:18 AM

Chapman wins 2 1 run games taking 2 from Redlands today. Chapman and Redlands both finish the season with a W-L overall of 20-20.

A transition year for Chapman which did not play a full conference schedule with no players on this team. Congrats to the great year these players had

SCIAC 2013 Questions

Will SCIAC teams continue to play each other 4 times with the addition of Chapman in a full SCIAC schedule?

Will the SCIAC have a end of year conference tourney? How many teams? What format?

I must admit I am surprised Rauh was picked as high as he was. Not knocking the kid at all but he doesn't seem like a pitcher that projects high.

dahlby · June 06, 2012, 08:59:00 PM

Jack,

Not trying to be sarcastic, but when was the last time you saw him pitch?

Jack,

Very fair question. I only saw him once in the last 2 seasons other than on video. Like I said, I am not knocking the kid one bit as his numbers speak volumes. I wish the kid all the luck in the world in his journey. Just my humble opinion and not meant to ruffle feathers.

I saw Rauh, Klimesh and Maxwell this year and all were deserving. I would agree on Rauh and see him projecting as a long reliever and Klimesh as a mid order starter. It would not surprise me if Maxwell moves up quickly in the minors.

Maxwell fits the Moneyball mold perfectly. A guy that drew 59 walks this spring with minimal strikeouts and some power. After reading Moneyball at least 4 times this spring (I refuse to see the movie), Maxwell is exactly the type of player the A's would take a shot at... reminiscent of Jeremy Brown (catcher from Alabama)who they rolled the dice on in 2002 (most thought he was taken WAY too early) and he found himself in the bigs before retiring in 2008.
