Yea I noticed that

CSS up 2-0 over Thomas in the bottom of 1

St. Scholastica vs St. Thomas is a game I have been wanting to see. Each team has beaten the other this year already.

CSS up 3-0 after 6. Kummet loses no hitter on a bad bounce over first baseman's head

CSS vs. UST is always an instant classic... I'll be tuned in till the end.

Sounds like Thomas is complaining every other play, 4-1 after 7

sounds like a crazy game, wish I was there

so, to pose a question, thoughts on taking out Kummet? A little too late, or a little to early? Should you let your senior stud pitcher have the ball?

very tough to second guess, especially when you are not there to see whats going on.

Anyone on hand to see UST's 7 run 8th inning? Sounded like a few singles with a couple walks, pb, and wp sprinkled in.

biggio34 · May 15, 2009, 12:22:12 AM

any projections on the pitching match-ups for tomorrow's games?

dukes · May 15, 2009, 12:24:51 AM

I am actually interested in the people who were there, or the people who know the CSS team best. And also just posing a question to see opinion....dont mean to second guess anyone. Obviously, there is never a right/wrong answer. Just ask Terry Francona and Pedro!

My next question though: who is in best position now? Olaf with 2 wins without a ton of pitching? St. Thomas who has used a lot of pitching through 2 games but playing well? Or someone from the backside of the bracket?

You see a game like CSS and UST where UST scored 7 (now) in the bottom of the 8th to go ahead 8-4 and it reminds me of the classic movie plot where the sword fight is hard and ferocious. One guy is winning and almost has put his enemy away. Then he gets hacked in the neck and blood starts spurting. He starts flailing, and the end is bloody quick and brutal! (Please forgive the lapse into adolescence...)

I'm liking the chances of CSS coming through the losers bracket actually... knock off UWSP, then USO, then two from UST.

This scenario is why I originally said StO should be the favorite, they've been able to save more pitching than USt.
They could come back with either Mathison or Sommer this morning, both of whom have Ws over USt this year (albeit, an ugly win in Mathison's case), while USt will have to counter with Stone, Gibbs, or Licht, all of whom have lost to StO this year.
Then add in that the USt-CSS game ended around midnight and they have to turn around and play again at 10am...

Not saying USt can't win it, but I think StO should be the favorite.
