He gave up a 2 run homer in the first, then it's true he shut out the beach chickens in innings 2,3,and 4 before giving up 4 more runs while retiring one batter in the 5th. Overall 6 ER in 4.1 innings. Saying that is a good sign is definately "glass half full" thinking.olldflame wrote:The problem is, the tournament format really tests pitching depth, so at some point we will probably need to strut Bean or Herndon out there.Herndon did throw 3 shutout innings against CCU.

My guess is Mitchell will start and then they try to use quarterly unless he's hurt.Oh, we will have to go through quite a few more pitchers IMHO before we resort to either of those 2. I think we start Mitchell tomorrow and Murphy in game 3, with quarterly available to do an extended bullpen stint if needed.

To say we would be in good shape is delusional. We are the 7 seed in this tournament for a reason, and Coastal is head and shoulders the best team. With the double elimination format, anyone else winning will be a shocker
