10th ECU pitcher in.

Hold on to win 6-5 in the 12th. Crazy game.

Nice win

Then #21 FAU beats #6 Florida

Man I’m bad luck. I tuned in the 7th up 2, proceeded to watch our pitcher take a belting hit right to his pitching wrist and ECU score 3 runs to take the lead. I turned it off sometime in the 8th. Nice surprise and a good win. If we’d taken one more of those RI games for the series we’d be sitting pretty right now.

Hah, I joined 2-0 right about the same time you did. Then watched them jump out to 3-2 in the 8th and was like "crap, well I'm bad luck." then watched like 9 more pitchers in 4 innings. Good baseball game.

Sounds like it. I’m glad to have the win. I’ll likely be watching basketball this weekend regardless so they’ll have to win in spite of me.

ODU beats Northeastern with a walk-off HR, 10-8.

Series with Ball State starts today. Their RPI rank is currently #1.
They split a four game series with top 20 Arizona and won 2 of 3 against Bradley and Kentucky (only two losses by UK thus far).
This may be a tough series.

Won the first game 6-3 against Ball St,

ODU took the 2nd game 10-5 vs Ball St (RPI #20), play again tomorrow at noon. Games are free this year.

Nice

Monarchs sweep Ball State with 2-1 victory in 10 innings on Sunday.

Excellent, think this is a very good sweep.

Next game is this Tuesday March 16th 3:00pm at the Bud against VCU. I can’t think of a better way to play hooky from work.

Due to the inclement weather forecasted for Tuesday, March 16, the Old Dominion home baseball game against VCU has been rescheduled to be played on Wednesday, March 17 at 3 p.m.

Pretty fair assessment of the season so far.

We did receive a vote in the Coaches Poll...Ball State ahead of us, LOL.

I find is comical that ECU is so highly ranked. They have played no one with a terribly good record and one of their losses is to US. Just goes to show you that polls are bogus. no poll, that counts toward anything, should be released until at least 3 weeks into any season.

Monarchs picked up a win at vcu yesterday 5-3. Always a good day when we beat the rams. They had to ride home with the windows open because they couldn't get the smell off.
