The sandbagging begins

I see UMHB came in at #19 in the first ACBA poll.

I will be watching on video and have no impact (thank goodness) what happens on the field.

I believe one of our position starters will also be out due to a slight run in with a catcher from SW who got in his way.

I am pretty sure that if the game is close at the end you will see a couple of pitchers who can gas it up. I am personally hoping for a close competitive game.

Freshman Dakota Parsons (batting .434) I believe will be out tonight. He missed last weekends series. I also believe Zack Whiddon will be out of the lineup as well, but I am not 100% on that one. Whiddon was an all region player as a freshman last year.

UMHB and TU going to extra innings 3-3

what a wild 9th inning. UMHB gets 2 runs to take the lead in the 9th 3-2 with 2 outs only to surrender an unearned run in the bottom of the 9th to send it to extra innings. 3-3 going to the 10th. UMHB has 4 errors that have surrendered 2 unearned runs.

Cru wasted a 1st and 3rd and 1 out by grounding into a double play. Excellent situational pitching by Tindall.

Great game, have to give MHB a lot of credit on a really nice showing so far!

Gotta play better defense against a top team like Trinity, but I have been pleased thus far. Tindall and Turner look tough.

Ron Boerger · March 18, 2014, 11:27:22 PM

On to the 12th ... hope none of these guys have an exam first period!

dp643 · March 18, 2014, 11:29:21 PM

I cant make it much longer tonight. Gotta be up early!

Jack Parkman · March 18, 2014, 11:44:00 PM

Ummmmm, what just happened? That guy was toast at home and called out, then it was changed?

?

It looked to me like his hand may have been in there, but there is no way that umpire can overrule himself???

dp643 · March 18, 2014, 11:48:40 PM

Griffith looks pretty solid too. Im still stunned at that call at home plate.

infielddad · March 18, 2014, 11:54:14 PM

how about that. TU throws it all over the infield, goes does 4-3, Griffith shuts the inning down with authority and Bianchi leads off the bottom 12 with a HR.

This has been ugly defensively for the last few innings on both sides.
