Here's the article from UWW's win over carthage yesterday in the Kenosha News.  Augie stated that if a team loses by 20, it should count as 2 losses and they should be eliminated, HAHA!  DH Ty Heegeman saw his first action on the mound this year, and I guess didn't do so bad. He struck out the kid who hit the grand slam, which the article states might have been the only high light for Carthage all day

Osh,
My comment wasn't a critique of your eyeball radaring abilities, what I meant was that no one in the region is throwing 4mph harder than Robinson. Call what Robinson throws 80, 86, 90, I don't care, no ones throwing harder.

Agreed, "90" gets bandied about too much, not many pitchers actually throw that hard. The worst was being a catcher when a pitcher thought they were throwing that hard and having to break the bad news to them.

You mentioned some examples of USt's slick fielding, but you failed to mention USt is No. 1 in the nation in fielding percentage. Here's how they rank vs the other regional particpants:
Knox: .929
CC: .955
UWW: .957
CSS: .966
UWO: .966
USt: .976
D is the reason guys like Boland and Salmen are playing. Denning could trot out players to SS and 2b that would hit much better than .246 and .283, but he wants their gloves up in the middle.

Nobody responds better when backed into a corner than Carthage.
BP, did you just quote Dirty Dancing??? "Nobody puts Baby in a corner."  :P


I'm not in the Milwaukee area, can someone enlighten me on Lechnir's decision not to start Rubens?

Game goes to extras, Schuld gives up a lead off single and in comes... Dan Leslie.

If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved.

After getting off to a "tough" start this season, Mike Jacobson has really came on strong lately.  Nothing like saving a 10 inning complete game for the 3rd day of Regionals!!!  Impressive!!!

I, like you, was really impressed with Jacobson....

Carthage down 3-0 early... Mario Perez falling apart on the hill. Back to back HBPs (one in the face).
Baseball is not a game that builds character, it is a game that reveals it.
