Preview of tonight's game from LSU site - I hope they're not too po'd after those 3 losses to Texas - weather will be cool with temps in the high 40's. AWP is the class of our league and played LSU to a one run game three weeks ago, victimized by a walk-off 3 run homer. www.lsusports.net/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=5200&ATCLID=211794066 |

Should be an awesome experience to play at LSU. Good news is it is a mid week non conference game for them. Bad news is it is still LSU. And their pitchers are still going to be very good. Anything remotely competitive will be good for the team moving forward.

LSU leads the nation in baseball attendance virtually every year, averaging over 10,000 per game. I knew a guy who played there as a visiting player and he said the fans are merciless in riding the opponents. Should be a great atmosphere for our guys to experience.

Had a pitcher from my Coastal Plain League club play there as well. Terrific atmosphere for baseball. Arguably the best in the country.
Geaux CRUSADERS!

One of my former hoops players became the first(only ? ) player to play all 9 positions in one college game while at LSU. Had a 10 year major league career
He has spoken often of the great experience at LSU

LSU answers back with a two out homer.
But LSU takes out their starter out after two walks.
Then a steal of third base and then an infield hit to shortstop and the Crusaders score again on the shortstop error.
2-1

Changing pitchers every inning so far going to be hard to hold the lead doing that.

The LSU Streaming announcers were talking about Holy Cross guys - Cousy Heinsohn Thomas Mathews and LSD pioneer Timothy Leary

LSU announcers talking about the eight teams that won both NCAA basketball and baseball championships.. We had some pretty good Power 5 company ,
Now They’re saying that there’s nine at least because Florida was not on the list
.( Saying they are getting these notes from the Holy Cross website)

Down 3 to 2 man on first and second - a single to center field where Masel throws out the runner at home

With the bases loaded and a lefty up to bat, not sure why DiCenzo would leave Thompson, a righty, in for two pitches (both balls) and then decide to bring in Dawson, a lefty.
Just go to Dawson for the entire at bat.

Sure enough, first pitch is a single up the middle bringing in two runs.
That’s bad baseball.

Just go to Dawson for the entire at bat. Agree. Then bring him in with 2ball count. Odd. Feel like this team will be alright when they get north. McGowan throwing 88-90, Cronin 92-93, and other guys so far 85-86. Some quality arms. |

Quality arms maybe.... look at the numbers. TEAM era is 9.32. Competition has been better that PL so far but DC has a ERA of 12.41 in 12 innings w 23 hits, 17 er and 11 walks. That's our #2. PM is proven and a fierce competitor and will be a top 3 pitcher in the league behind Song and Giovinco but numbers are tough right now. Their is no defense for walks. Things need to improve or we will battle Lehigh and Buck for the fourth spot.

Does anybody know where the BC game is going to be played?

not at Fitton, you can bet on that - if it's played, I'd imagine at the Northborough facility. Extended forecast is dry and very cool on Tuesday.

Supposed to be better weather and warmer weather next week. So hopefully they can start soon at Fitton.
They played on a pretty cold day yesterday at LSU.
Does anybody go to the games when they are in Northborough if there is no seats?

Does anybody go to the games when they are in Northborough if there is no seats? You can stand on the walkways or being a camping chair. Really depends on which field the game is at too. |
