Keene State beats up on Brandeis today 17-8. Perkins and Callahan had HR's as Callahan hit his 7th HR of the season. Pretty crazy wind down there as several balls were hit out for both teams. Keene goes to 11-8 on the season.

Impressive win for USM as Wheaton has had their number for the last couple of years in the regular season, interesting to see the box score from that one.

ECSU rebounded pretty good today after there lose to UMD they bounced back to beat PSU 20-0 today...

And Billy Armstrong got hit pretty good today had thrown over 100 pitchs and he didnt even get outta the 3rd inning.....

Keene bats pretty good today against what had to be the lower end of Brandeis's rotation.  Sonberg got the win, but struggled greatly.  Three homers for Keene today- Patenode, Doyon, and Callahan- Not Perkins as was previously posted today.  That is 3 for Patenode in his last 2 games.  The one he hit today was a true bomb- dead center field approx 40 feet over the 390 mark.  Three homers for Brandeis as well.

Next up for Keene is Amherst on Tuesday.

UMB sweeps UMD today 14-8 in a slugfest in the first game UMB was down to there last out before freshman Mark Mcormick hit a 2 run home run to put the beacons on top for good they scored 11 runs over the last 2 innings and at one point were down 6-0 after 2. Then they get more great hitting in the 2nd game and andriano pitched great in the 2nd game in there 11-1 game 2 win.

They hit like this and Andriano comes along and if the young staff starting to throw better there going to be a scary team... They move to 3-1 (and into first place in the littleeast) with big games coming up next weekend at home (finally for the first time all year) versus USM and PSU.

UMD back down to earth, being swept today handily by UMB.  WCONN belting RIC in the eight 15-6.   Tough weekend for the Anchormen.

Congrats to USM on nice victory today over Wheaton.

[Jcon8958]

And RIC looks like there going to drop to 1-4 in the LEC there down 15-6 in the top of the 9th...

I don't know what to say, we got our butts handed to us. I don't know what this coach is thinking half the time but it definitely isn't winning ball games. Taking freshmen out of the pen to pitch after not warming up, refusing to put the strongest defense on the field. I don't know what to think anymore, but I can tell you moral is seriously down and it will not get any better until coach Grenier gets his act together.


Excellent job today USM and KSC against non-conference teams.

And congrats to all other winners.

ECSUalum....
You're right it was unbelievable, but baseball is full of twists, turns, and combinations of good and bad plays, coaching decisions, and umpiring. But that is why they have fences to seperate the game from the spectators. Yesterday was just one game that will never be played again and this team is too talented to have many more like yesterday. What went wrong? None more than the usual things that we see everyday in college baseball. UMD played slightly better defense than Eastern. They had timely hits. They got a very good pitching performance from Gustafson  and in the ninth with a runner on second, they brought in a reliever and threw three pitches to Palo who laced a line drive headed up the middle to tie the game and the pitcher snared it and turned it into a game ending double play. Game over. There is no crying in baseball.. Move on .... The sun will come out tomorrow..... it's only a game-one game. I know this team will be fine. With 2 today, tomorrow vs WNEC, at Montclair on Tuesday, at Springfield on Wednesday ,WConn on Friday they will find each of those games a challenge because everyone wants to beat them and beat #1. They will be fine. See you at the picnic.

ecfaninri,

Well stated and your absolutley correct.  enough said about this game.  TEE came back strong today and lets hope they finish the rest of the year strong behind thier excellent pitching staff and strong offense. 

Good to see you and DGilblair today on Parents Day, and finally, YOUR GRANDSON IS ADORABLE! Great family!!

PS CONGRATS TO USM ON A NICE WIN VS WHEATON.  New D3 polls should give strong consideration to USM as Numero Uno

Plymouth State at home ...just what the doctor ordered. Gilblair and Musson were right on today. Plenty of hits to go around. Next up - weather permitting... WNEC tomorrow at home. Yes, the grandson had a fun day too. Thanks.

Chevy, thanks for the updated information. I was listening to the game and the announcers (both Braindeis students) had mentioned that Perkins had the HR, either way, this offense looks to be better then any KSC has seen before, hope their pitching can continue to grow as they will need it in what looks to be a crazy conference this year.

ECSU blasting Plymouth wasn't a surprise but UMB sweeping UMD is a surprise, basically in the way that after sweeping KSC and beating ECSU you would expect at least a split but as Jconn mentioned the young pitching staff for UMB showed its stuff today.

Opening Day tomorrow for the Sox!
