Against better competition, you're correct, we are not good at the plate. Another goose egg is produced. On another note, being on the road constantly will wear ya down after awhile, with only one home game thus far I'd say the team has done pretty well. Anyway, it sure would be nice to take at least one game this weekend, only way to do that is to score. Almost only counts in horseshoes. :D
We didn't almost anything today! What an offensive explosion we had at the plate, AND it was against quality pitching. Maybe they're improving with the bats? No matter what it is a huge win for the team.

Mostly the same roster. Our starting third basemen is a true Freshman that Kermit brought in.

This is basically the same roster with very few late adds from last year, that's the crazy thing. With mostly the same roster, rotation is completely different, the lineup is different and new players are contributing. Hell, five-foot-nothing Jason Curtis hit a home run today!

9-10 record with this schedule is a small miracle.

Maybe I pissed them off again, with the "almost only counts in horseshoes" comment. :lol:

SOS is currently sitting at 29 and won't get much easier until we play ULAR. Very impressive what Kermit has done so far.

Speaks to coaching. Getting the up the middle defense fixed and the addition of Grubbs (kid can hit!) have had early impacts.
