We may win, but I'm not happy with our approach at the bat. That was a wasted inning. You need a cushion-so what does everyone do? Swing for the fences.

Assuming we win tonight (not certain, of course), UM is pitching a much better pitcher tomorrow night. This kind of lackluster offensive performance will result in a runner-up trophy, and several coupons redeemable for free tacos at Taco Bell.

He is rested coming in. That 7 pitch inning helps.

If we could add 2 runs here, i’d pull him.

Dang. Hit hard but nothing but outs. Kind of miss small ball.

Three outs away. Nice that it took just 7 pitches.

40 pitches for Brown. That’s a lot.

We brought heat tonight. Michigan had trouble with it.

Yesterday we did too much offspeed nibbling.

TomorrowSome unexpected arm (or arms) could be critical... We have a lot of mid-90 throwers - they just have to find the plate.

While Michigan has a good pitcher left- he is more of a hard thrower than a twirler. We have had trouble with the offspeed stuff.

Good gritty win. Rocker is spectacular. And especially in elimination games.

I think he will.

But maybe 4 outs instead of 7.

Someone else from the pen will need to shine too, though. I like Hickman a lot in this situation- but Michigan is running counts deep. Hope the pen gets hot. There are some high draft picks out there who can let it rip.

Best ERA's in the bullpen for tomorrow...

Eder 2.97
Smith 3.27
Fisher 4.41

The rest? You don't want to know.

(and Brown at 2.19)

Smith and Eder have a combined record of 6-0
I wouldn't be shocked if Smith gets a look at mid-week starter next season.
