Two games at Chapman on Saturday.

Chapman got its first ever win in the SCIAC conference game  with a 3-2 win over Occidental College on Friday. Great defense, great pitching and timely hitting help Chapman get the win. Chapman plays a double header on Saturday at home vs Occidental.

Chapman 2 Occidental 1

Hens sweep CMS - blowouts in the first two, and a 4-2 win in the final game.  7-0/3-0 on the season.  Looks like another solid FR class for Coach P - including the current #2 and #3 pitchers - Cameron Yen and Simon Rosenbaum.   8 straight wins over the Stags now....

The CLU victory over G. Fox made the Channel 4 11 o'clock news because it was a great comeback with two outs in the ninth and several batters getting hits with two strikes.

P-P's sub-2 team ERA goes up against Cal Lu's 8.33 runs per game average this weekend.  Something has got to give. 
Of course, Whitworth scored on average 8.33 runs per game in their 3 game series against Cal Lu, and managed all of 4 hits and 0 runs against P-P's now #3 starter and 5th(?) guy out of the pen.

Yeah...it has been a rough go for my Stags on the diamond of late. At least Arce Field is still looking good!

Pomona ERA 1.98 OPP Bat .212
Cal LU BA .344 OBA .400 SLG% .520

Pomona has hitting with pitching and will take at least 2 out of 3 IMO

So far early on in the season the SCIAC is a tight race. Only top 4 teams will go to the SCIAC tournment. Lots of baseball left.

Looks like something did give.  Cal Lu had some big innings that fueled the series win.  I still think Pomona is the top pitching staff in the SCIAC and Cal Lu is the top hitting team.

In a very early review of the SCIAC, I would say Cal Lu and Pomona are the top 2 teams.  Chapman won a big series against La Verne and has won 2 tight battles so far.  Whittier has played the 2 worst teams and Redlands had some decent competition against the Beavers.  La Verne looks like they struggle at the plate.  They have no power at all but their pitching is pretty solid.  Oxy has played a weak schedule (minus Chapman) and it stays fairly easy for the next few weeks.

Lots of baseball yet to be played but I think the SCIAC is pretty solid for the top 6 teams.

Series I'm most looking forward to: cal tech v cms.

Series I'm most looking forward to: cal tech v cms.

A Cal Tech win would be even sweeter for a Pomona-Pitzer fan.  CMS looks like they are pretty bad.
