2024 Baseball - AAC Tournament (ESPN+)

We ended up with the 7 seed and play UTSA in our 1st game in Clearwater.

The good news: we’ve beaten everyone on our side of the bracket

The bad news: we were 3-6 vs teams in our bracket.

You only have to beat them one at a time though. Let’s make a run!!

Looking back at the series at UTSA, Game 1 went about as good as we could ask for. The rest of the series, things were pretty bad.

Game 1, Reynolds went 5 strong, then AJ for 3, and Rossi closed it out.

Rice now winning 3-0 after five innings. Yet to be seen if their pitching can hold EZU to 2 additional runs, but there is hope. Would not be sad to see the Pirates in the loser’s bracket.
EZU with a legion of fan behind home plate.

Maybe Alumnus will get to the ballpark in time to see an Eastern loss.

Eastern probably had the best 1-2 punch in the NCAA this year with their top 2 starters. After that there is a pretty big drop-off.

Now their #2 is injured and their best bullpen arm may be out for the season. They are in some serious trouble, especially if they have to go on the road for a Regional. You have to win 3 - 4 games in a weekend to win a Regional and right now, they don’t have the pitching.

Only good thing is the collapse was on that
little cocky ass Hixon.

That’s true. What a prick. His fielders let him down too. Their RF has lost 2 balls in the sun now.

Rice allows 12 runs in the bottom of the 8th entering the inning with a 4-0 lead.
