answer ball hard hit runners scoring weekend
It's hard to find an answer when you hit the ball well all weekend and then you can't hit with runners in scoring position.
expect fewest last low man mistakes offense relatively run scores scoring year
I expect it to be a relatively low scoring series, if we can keep the scores around the same as last year we should do fine. It's going to be who makes the fewest mistakes and who is going to be able to run their offense by getting their lead-off man on.
both games good hit pitching position runners scoring struck window won
We had good enough pitching that we should have won both games (on Sunday), but the could of, would of, should of window is getting old. We not only didn't hit with runners in scoring position but we struck out.
base buy hit runners scoring
We could not get a base hit with runners in scoring position; we just could not buy a big base hit.
ballgame coming conference early finished hurdle kept played runs score second
We've finished second in the conference two years in a row, but to get over the hurdle you've got to be able to put runs on the board. We've played a lot of low-scoring ballgames and we didn't score early in a ballgame ... so we kept coming back late.
environment facility great hostile played thinking
I'm going up thinking that it will be a very hostile environment to play at ... it's not a great facility ... but fortunately we've played very well there traditionally.
decision deliberate loaded offense recruit type
I made the deliberate decision to go recruit big-power offense for this team, we loaded up on those type of players.
ball biggest club good head seeing series signs
I'm seeing really good signs as we head into the biggest series of the season. I feel pretty good about our ball club right about now.
bats best pressure series takes worried
I'm worried about going into a must-win series without Schmidgall. It would put a lot of pressure on us this weekend. It doesn't only take one of our best bats out of the lineup, but it takes away our lead-off hitter.
anyone competition granted great help push
I want everyone to be hungry; I don't want anyone to take it for granted that they're going to be in the lineup. I think the competition is great and it is going to help push each guy.
boost definitely home nice people
It was nice to come out at home and see a big crowd. People showed up even with construction still going on. I think that definitely was a boost for the guys.
against beat conference games good michigan morale next nice six state team win
It was nice to beat a Big 10 team again. The win against Michigan State is a good morale booster for us going into these next six games before conference starts.
assume school turn umpires
Umpires typically turn their back on the rule. Unfortunately, we can't assume every umpire is going to be old school and turn their back on it.
aspects baseball care consistent four game hole ourselves playing record worry
We've put ourselves in a hole ... and right now I don't care what anybody's record is, we can only worry about ourselves. We're just not playing consistent baseball in all four aspects of the game day in and day out.
