titansforever Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 This team is 12-20-1. Last season, we ended at 52-14. How did we fall so far? Very distressing. I don't have a good feeling about the rest of this season. I just hope we can turn things around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis 83 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 For starters, every position player except the third baseman left. Then we moved our DH to first base. Lost our closer and another reliever that we relied heavily on. One of our weekend starters is pitching in Canada. I may be missing something else. I'm not making excuses I promise you. No one is more disappointed, or had higher expectations, than me. That having been said, there's a lot of talent from last year's team that is currently playing at the next level in some form or another. I also hope that we turn things around.....and soon. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the perspective. You're right--we lost a lot of talent from 2023. The only way to go is up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Jefe 11 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 No hitter not on tonight’s menu after the first pitch bunt. However, ORU guns down lead off man trying to steal second. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlue82 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Another bad, almost inexplicable loss. Two untimely errors leading to two unearned runs and the home team falls 3-2. The Tommies had nine hits, all singles, with only one of them clearing the infield on the fly. ORU is also aided by three Tommie errors, but only leading to one run. All of the positive momentum from last week crashes to a halt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theeagleman5 Posted April 13 Author Share Posted April 13 Talk about two MUST wins today and tomorrow.....Good Guys have to step up or they are facing a very difficult road for the rest of April and May.....ORU just has to beat the Tommies and take this series or blood will be in the water and the sharks will come feasting.....GO BLUE!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogus Smith Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 The sad thing about last night is that we wasted a fine performance by Jakob Hall and left way too many players in scoring position. it was a frustrating game to watch. I'm looking forward to some FUN games to watch!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theeagleman5 Posted April 13 Author Share Posted April 13 Just not gonna happen this year. Who would have thought this ORU team would be done by Masters weekend? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogus Smith Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Had the last two runs in the 9th by the Tommies not materialized, we may still be playing baseball after the blast by Drew Stahl. UST had good, timely hits and some very good fielding plays. The first baseman made a miracle catch behind his back in fair territory that would have started a great rally had it been uncaught, but the luck went to the Tommies today and they have taken a series (their first) from our beloved Golden Eagles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
