theeagleman5 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 So due to poor weather conditions in Brookings, SD....this series has been moved to Council Bluffs, IA on Friday (DH) and Omaha, NE on Saturday?....very strange....but I guess whatever it takes to get these games in....the Jacks are in 3rd place just one game behind ORU in the loss column so this is a huge series...imperative that the Good Guys get 2 of 3.....GO BLUE!!...

theeagleman5 Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 The finale today vs. SDSU is really a huge game with regards to the #1 seed in the Summit Tournament and the overall psyche of this ORU team....we can't continue to lose series to these sub par Summit teams and falling today just gives the Jacks a lot of confidence in addition to pulling them even in the loss column....ORU needs to go out there this afternoon and jump on SDSU early and put them away....this is a game that the Good Guys need to show some heart in addition to talent....let's see what they've got.....

theeagleman5 Posted April 22, 2018 Author Share Posted April 22, 2018 ORU got the big series win over SDSU today, 8-1....a solid 6 2/3 inning pitching performance by McGregor who gave up just one run and four hits.....the Good Guys banged out 11 hits and took advantage of 8 walks offered up by Jacks pitchers....Henson had 2 hits including a 2 run HR....So the Golden Eagles remain in first place in the Summit and 23-14 overall.....next up Western Illinois comes to Tulsa next weekend.....

ORUalum Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 best weekend starting pitching of the year? great job by all three guys. the benching of Rosenberg and Montoya has gone a long way to getting production from the bottom of the order and turning the lineup over. still not one of ORU's better teams, but they seem to be finding their footing thanks to Fort Wayne's sweep of Omaha, ORU has some breathing room at the top of the league standings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
