Unfortunately competition is down this year. Yes the good guys should win the regular/post-season. It would be nice to win a super-regional as well.

theeagleman5 Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 ORU (12-0) with a 3 game lead in the loss column over NDSU (6-3)....the Bison won 2 of 3 this past weekend over St. Thomas and are only 10-22 overall.....no excuse for the Good Guys not to win 2 of 3 up at Fargo next weekend and extend their regular season lead......but baseball can be strange sometimes.....still ORU should be ready for the next two Summit series vs. 2nd place NDSU and 3rd place SDSU...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The weather is going to be miserable for baseball. We do not play well in cold weather and NDSU will have a "home field advantage" of surviving a game in the weather that is forecasted. We will be lucky to win the series this coming weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ORUTerry Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 My goodness, what horrible weather. I feel sorry for the people who have to live up there. Can you imagine trying to hit a baseball in that kind of weather? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
74Titan Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 Kelvin Torve was from Rapid City, SD. He hit .379 as a freshman, Jim Scherbenske was from North Dakota. Still ( I think)) holds the record for most triples in a game (2). By the way, Roger Maris was from North Dakota as well. He did all right.

theeagleman5 Posted April 17, 2023 Share Posted April 17, 2023 The opening contest on Friday is actually a night game....who's bright idea was that???...From that forecast above it appears they may have to play a DH on Saturday......but Sunday will be a balmy 47 so maybe play a pair then.....

TrueBlue82 Posted April 30, 2023 Author Share Posted April 30, 2023 North Dakota State played its 39th game of the season yesterday - and their FIRST official home game. At least six previous home games had to be moved to a neutral site because of weather and/or field conditions. What a brutal place to field a collegiate baseball program. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NDSU shares an all-grass field with the local minor league team and are at the mercy of that club's ground crew, which according to Bison fans is not a very motivated bunch when it comes to getting the field ready-for-play when their season does not start until late May. In related news: according to "RPI Update", with Saturday's win ORU clinched a berth in the Summit League tournamant! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Summit social media dude should've checked the schedule before posting his tweet. It would have been more accurate to say " SDSU are winners of 7 straight and have pulled into second place since they are the only team in the league to have not yet played Oral Roberts. That ends this weekend." 2 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogus Smith Posted April 30, 2023 Share Posted April 30, 2023 Baseball now plays the last place teams in the Summit (UST & WIU) with an overall combined record of 12-58. No more league home games for this season, so we have seen the last of the Summit League at JLJ until 2024. The race now is for the #4 slot in the post season tournament. three teams are tied for fourth place at 5-10. I don't know who has a tie-breaker, but whoever it is will get ORU in the first round. The magic number for ORU to win at least a share of the Summit League regular season championship is two wins by ORU or two losses by NDSU - or a combination of the two. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
