Carthage trailing Oberlin 6-2 in the bottom of the 3rd. Redmen starter, Kyle Cibrario (not sure if any relation to former Redmen player and coach Robb Cibrario) is getting hit hard at this point giving up 6 hits including a 2B and a HR.

Let's hope the bats can pick it up and give Carthage a chance to win this one with the back of their rotation today as the top arms are resting for CCIW play this weekend.

EDIT: and just like that Carthage answers with a pair of runs in the 3rd... 6-4, runners on and still no outs.

2nd EDIT: Carthage answers again the 4th knotting it up at 6s. This sure feels like the Redmen of old!

Carthage hits a 2 run HR in the 7th and another 2 run HR in the 8th to take an 11-7 lead into the 9th.  Wild top of the 9th for Oberlin....K, HBP, Single, K, HBP, bases clearing double to make it 10-11.  Ground out to 2nd to end the game.

Carthage finished their spring trip with a 9-2 mark after pissing one away today against Oberlin by a final score of 7-6.

The Red Men loaded the bases in the first with no outs and came up with 1.  In the second they loaded the bases with 1 out and got a runner picked off and a K to end that inning with nothing to show for it.  In the 3rd they scored 3 on 4 hits.  The 4th started out with a double, but I'm assuming a great play by the CF erased that in a DP.  In the 5th, 1st and 3rd with no outs only led to one run.  6ht and 7th were quiet.  In the 8th, they manufactured a run with two outs and no one on.  18 hits for the boys from Kenosha, but not a lot of them were timely.

The bottom of the 9th was again an adventure as Oberlin scored 4 to win in walk-off fashion.  K, single, doulbe, walk to load 'em up, walk in a run,  new pitcher, K, pinch hitter, 2 run single to tie it, single to win it.

4 errors, 2HBP, and 6 walks...need to clean that up.

Carthage is hitting a ton right now, but at the end of the day, this game is all about pitching and defense. The Redmen appear to struggle with BOTH of those right now.

Baseball is not a game that builds character, it is a game that reveals it.

My CCIW predictions:

Wheaton takes 2 of 3 from Millikin (Miilkin's smoke and mirrors comes to an end)
IWU sweeps Elmhurst (Titans overpower Bluejays)
Augustana takes 2 of 3 from North Central (Welcome back, Ed Mathey)
NPU takes 2 of 3 from Carthage (Carthage defense needs to be better to stop NPU)

The Carthage-North Park game has been rescheduled due to the snowfall over night in Kenosha.  As it stands right now, North Park will host Carthage for a single game at 10.30 AM on Saturday, and the Vikings travel to Kenosha for a twinbill on Sunday.

Augie takes 1st game of the DH with NCC, 13-10.  Augie was down10-6 heading in to the ninth inning and scored 7 to get the win.

Carthage 2-1 over NPU yesterday. DH today in Kenosha. 2 of 3 would be a solid start for Carthage. 3 of 3 would put them back on the national map.

Biggest stat of the day. No errors for Carthage. Cannot afford to give NPU free base runners. Though the walls were a bit high. Dodged a bullet yesterday.

Currently in a rain delay.

That was a total pull-your-hair-out-by-the-roots performance by NPU bats on Saturday. Thirteen runners left on base? Ridiculous.

NPU's inability to hit in the clutch or get anything going on the bases really ruined a strong effort on the mound by Jason Meger. The Vikings' bats need to get in gear.

Looks like Carthage took game #2 tonight and is up in the 8th in game #3.  Couple of errors and a total of 6 walks so far for the Red Men staff.  Alex Vannucci got slapped around pretty good through 5 and a third, giving up 13 hits, but only 2 for extra bases.

Tough back to back double header with tonight's game going until at least 9pm and then having to go to Wheaton tomorrow for another one on a quick turnaround.  Sleep quick boys.

BigPoppa

Love the Carthage bats but their free bases allowed scares me. Feel like we've been dodging bullets for most of the spring.

Mr. Ypsi

If things don't change, expect a truly scathing report from Greg later today.  After 4.5 innings, IWU 4 (2 hits, 3 unearned runs), NPU 0 (5 hits, 4 errors).  Looks like a whole lot of foot-shooting going on. :P

Carthage over Wheaton 4-3 in ten innings in game 1. Carthage moves to 4-0 in CCIW play and 14-2 overall.

IWU won the first game over NPU, 10-2 (no box score yet).

In the top of the first, IWU up 3-0, but at least it was a triple, walk, and HR.  No errors! ::)

The WAY-TOO-EARLY prognostication for the title is Carthage vs. IWU vs. Augie.

Does the CCIW do a preseason Coaches/SID poll?

If so, what were the predictions for this season?
