In the preview on line, Declan Cronin is mentioned with McGowan. In the pitchers’ section.
Dvorak is the only other returning pitcher mentioned. Hedaya not included

Darn, yeah, McGowan must be dealing with an injury or sickness.

Nothing to see here and same deal every year. Coach never starts our number one in the opening game. He will likely use a bunch of people for 1-2 innings tonight to see who looks like they are ready. Meanwhile it gives the defensive players a chance to settle in so you going to the weekend games with your top pitcher and a team that is ready to go. |

But top pitcher is McGowan
Is DiC withholding his name to surprise Baylor ?

This is Coach D's approach. Has been for years. Very little chance of winning more than 1 game vs Baylor. They return all 9 starting positions plus 95% of innings pitched last year in the Big 12. Not going to beat their 1 or 2 starters so we pitch 3 or 4 starters and save HC's 1 and 2 for Baylor's 3 and 4. McGowan could steal a game, if healthy, so he goes Game 4. 1 win is a successful weekend. Enjoy the Baylor and LSU games because Lehigh/Lafayette are just around the corner.

Keough pitching the 3rd, 2 walks, 1 hit batter, nothing hit out of the infield, wild throw from 3rd, and passed ball gives BU another two runs. Keough may be the slowest working pitcher on the roster, I hope

After 9 outs and 3 innings, we have giving up 5 walks and 3 hbp. Early but that is not good. Hits are tied but down by a touchdown.

Add a balk that brings in another run -,pitching is losing their composure. 8-0 in the bottom of the 5th (wish there was a mercy rule such as they have in softball)

To many pitching changes. Let the guy that went 1 2 3 pitch the next inning.

Down 9-0. Check that, 10-0. Pitching is poor. Hoped LAC and ability to practice indoors would help these early games.
Since I have been watching not that BU hitting so well but lots of pitches in the dirt and wild pitch.
Now 11-0 on sac fly.

Since I have been watching not that BU hitting so well but lots of pitches in the dirt and wild pitch. Now 11-0 on sac fly. Ditto, early in the game, not much BU hitting, very sloppy HC play. Only good hit I saw was second hit by our freshman, line drive up the middle |
