Pedro is hitting good pitches. He is a talented kid that if he gets strikes he is able to hit the ball pretty well.
ball closing coming good guy help holding job run sharp solid state today tough tyler
Cody did a good job today and holding Ball State to only a run was important. Tyler did a solid job coming in and closing out the game. It's tough for him to be very sharp because he hasn't pitched a lot, but he is a guy that is really going to help us.

Parker had a good day today. He hit the ball hard and he hit it the other way. Dominic did as well, that is their strength. When they start using the whole field they become better hitters.

We pitched well at the end today and played good defense all weekend. We didn't make an error and had 31 hits in three games, not bad for a young group that is still finding their way.

We were very opportunistic tonight offensively. We did a good job of battling in a few at bats and also had some key two-out hits that brought in runs.

We're very happy with Ryan Flaherty and his performance today. He had a big triple and also added a single and double in his three at-bats. Ryan did a great job at the plate today.
