Re: Summit League Championships
A 6-run bottom of the 9th sinks Southern Utah as they fall 9-6 to Oral. Jacks get a shot at redemption against the T-Birds starting at 7:00 Dellas Cole should have the play by play on the 910.

Originally posted by 1bunnies View PostI believe you should use your staff ace in the 1st game on a double elimination tourney. I have seen to many teams over the years gamble and lose by not pitching their ace right away. Rest should not have been a problem going in, since their last game prior to the tourney was last Saturday. Our backs are against the wall now and the rest of the way you pitch whoever you have that can get a few outs.
I've seen many teams that lost because the ace loses a nail-biter in round one. Best solution - two aces. Or even better, four aces and then you have a great shot at winning in poker or baseball.

Originally posted by Nidaros View PostWith double elimination, we still have a chance to win it. Pitching changes are like coaching changes, they are made eaiser in the stands or on this board. I would be willing to bet Richie had his reasons for not making a change. Might have something to do with double elimination. I don't know.

Re: Summit League Championships
Originally posted by 1stRowFANatic View PostAll depends on who is pitching the next day and how rested and ready to go is the rest of the staff. In a single elim tourney, rest doesn't matter, but no matter the outcome of yesterday's game, the Jacks were going to have at least one more game today. Also, you have to remember that it is likely there will be two games today. If we had won, then the next game is at 3 most likely against ORU's best starter (we didn't know they had won at game time and often a team will use its best starter in game two to get to the championship game undefeated or stay alive) with a potential game again at 7 if we lose to ORU. If we lost the game, (like we did) we play today at 11 with another game at 7. Managing the pitching staff in a short double elim tourney is always a challenge.

Re: Summit League Championships
We're still hitting great, if the defense comes around, mainly the pitching, we'll still have a chance of pulling this thing off.One loss from elimination, i say use your best pitchers the next two games & hope your hitting carries you through.Have to be able to protect a good sized lead in future games.Eight runs scored & still lose the game, niether team was pitching all that great, if you ask me.I think they're "saving" thier best pitchers for ORU too.We should really make them pay for that!Last edited by jackdaniel; 05-22-2009, 09:50 AM.

Re: Summit League Championships
Tough one to lose. I think this one is on Ritchie. Your starter blows a 4 run lead and you bring him back out the next inning. Should've yanked the inning he got into trouble.

Re: Summit League Championships
Briggs hits a SF to score a run and Stitz triples in the other 2. Jacks now lead 6-2. 11 hits on the day so far. A double by Turner, Stitz's triple and Martin's HR. Stay hot Jacks.
