I'm not going to do a scouting report on MTSU this week. I don't know much about them, they won a game against a decent UAB team this weekend and they got beat by Vandy by only a run in their mid-week game. They always play us tough and I don't suspect this one will be any different. If we've truly turned the corner then this is one you file under "taking care of business".
Thoughts about the ASU series...
Big props to our catchers, Houser and Schultz. They have both been stellar defensively and a bit of a pleasant surprise offensively.
VJax's .233 average is a little misleading. He's had 43 at bats, through 15 games. He has 10 hits and he's been walked or HBP/ 13 times. He has zero strike outs and opposing pitchers have to do a lot of work when he's at the plate.
Senzel...what can ya say...incredible! Maggio is hanging in there too. The frosh duo performing very well through the first 15 games.
Andy Cox, 24 IP, 7 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 5 BB, 19 SO, .75 ERA :clapping:
The relievers have done a heck of a job so far! Petersen looked good today.
There are some things that need to be cleaned up, too many lead off walks, too many stranded RISP, etc...no doubt they will be working on things.
Having Mizzou and Auburn after MTSU, gives us some time to tune up the engine so to speak.
They had to fight and claw to win this weekend and the loss probably helped as much as it hurt. Keep getting better everyday and staying hungry is all we can hope for as fans.
GBO!!!
