Ah a little snow doesn't hurt anybody.

They don't have orange balls to use on days like these?

Charles Finley (if anybody remembers him) would have been prepared.

Oh yea - colored bases as well - the homerun porch etc...

Once again the MAC is so f'n terrible our RPI is going to plummet by the end of the season and we will be a 4 seed if we win the MAC tourney. It's a shame nobody in the MAC is worth a sh*t.

RE: 2017 Baseball Roster & Schedule
Ball State and Buffalo are both top 100 in RPI currently and we are looking for the sweep of BSU and face Buff next week. They still have Purdue, Ohio State and Pitt on the schedule. Those games wont outweigh the rest of the games on the schedule but it takes a bit of the sting off as long as we come out on top against all 5 of them.

15-7 overall, 3-0 in MAC

Buffalo travels to Kent OH for this weekends series. KSU should have beaten Purdue on the road, but gave up 2 runs late;

Here is the link to season statistics, so you can see how the players are doing through 22 games: http://www.kentstatesports.com/cumestats...&year=2017

Schuler & Hamilton struggling with consistency @ the plate and Zach Willeman & Zach Spangler struggling with consistency on the mound.

Kent moved up to 29th in the latest baseball poll. Maybe a 3rd seed isn't impossible.

Nothing these days surprises me. However, I would think with double digit losses and our terrible conference, regardless of rankings, we will be a 4 seed (assuming we win the MAC-T).

RE: 2017 Baseball Roster & Schedule
June swoon in April? It would be concerning if the five most recent losses were to good teams (or maybe I should say to teams with at least winning records), but I'm really not sure what to make of these losses. It seems as though all were against pitching that should have been beatable for this team.

Injuries, distractions, over confidence...what's going on?

And the woes continue. That game today was difficult to listen to. I'm not sure about anyone else, but I've found the pitching to be very disappointing so far. Unless there is a dramatic change in their ability to shut down even a mediocre offense, I don't see how there could be much potential for this team to play beyond the conference tourney. For the most part, it has not really been top-quality, middle of the order bats that have been burning them.

It was interesting that today's game preview release didn't include any projected starting pitchers. With the pitching used at NIU, who would be starting tomorrow and Wednesday?

KSU is up 5-1 and just forced a pitching change. Joe Vranesic got the start for KSU today.

KSU 1 Toledo 0, final in 15 innings. Today's game starts @ 4pm EST and tomorrow's game starts @ 1pm EST. It will be a battle of pitching depth and I like KSU's chances in that regard.

KSU 0 Toledo 0 , in the top of the 4th inning.

Here are the stats through yesterday's game: http://www.kentstatesports.com/cumestats...&year=2017

Kanavas has come on strong of late, as has Sam Hurt, but Burch, Matthews, & Dalporto have both struggled of late.

RE: 2017 Baseball Roster & Schedule
KSU 3 Toledo 2, final. Dalporto hits a bloop into left center for the game winner, with Burch coming home. KSU moves into 1st place overall in the MAC. The good guys for the sweep tomorrow @ 1pm EST.

On a side note, KSU had 5 errors today....

On another side note, Duncan/staff have missed on a lot of outfielders, as their starting outfield, none of them started their careers @ KSU. Mamarella transferred from Akron, Burch transferred from Ashland, & Kanavas transferred from U of Arizona to JC to KSU.

Besides Murray, who's likely to throw tomorrow?

Schultz & Vranesic I am guessing. Possibly Ziegler if he is available after Friday night's marathon.

KSU 1 Toledo 0, headed to the top of the 4th

KSU has left a lot of runners on base again today, as they had on Friday & Saturday.

RE: 2017 Baseball Roster & Schedule
At this stage of the season it would sure be nice to start seeing some consistency. Don't get me wrong, it's great to see comeback wins...just not so much when there shouldn't be a need for a comeback, whether through missed offensive opportunities, blown pitching, errors, or some combination of these.

At least they took 2 of 3 against the west leader though.
