Agreed!
I'm pretty sure there will be consensus on this one. Just a HUGE come from way behind win...and it was really special to see the offense respond a second time after ECU quickly retook the lead. Not easy to do on the road; especially in such a hostile place as Greenville. And, yes, another big time performance by Zech. We're now 10-4 on the road this season, which is pretty darn impressive...have won 7 consecutive weekend series (without a loss)...and will end the weekend tied with the Coogs atop the conference standings. Well done!
Game Ball #1: The offensive duo of Michael Aquino (2-5, 2 doubles, 1 run scored, 2 RBIs) for his game-winning double to retake the lead, and Michael Ratterree (2-4, sac fly, 2 RBIs) for being our one consistently clutch hitter all weekend long.
Game Ball #2: Zech Lemond (W, 4-1, 3.2 IP, 4 hits, 0 BBs, 3 Ks), who was a bit shaky when first called upon in the 6th inning, but was virtually lights out the final 3 innings to close things out.
Game Ball #3: Could have gone to any of several players, but I'm giving it to Geoff Perrott (1-4, run scored, 2 RBIs) as his big hit in the 5th put us back in the game for real, and for being the iron man this weekend, catching all 31 innings this weekend.
Critically important win today...and the way we did it can leave no doubt that this team never quits and has the will to win. Also good to see make a cameo. Can't wait to see him back in the lineup when I return to Reckling next weekend. Should be interesting to see how The OG works his pitching on Tuesday vs. Lamar. I suspect we'll see "all staff", and wouldn't be at all surprised to see either McCanna get another start, or even Fox (though I'm not sure we can afford to lose Blake's arm in the bullpen). Go Owls!
