Andrew Kribbs gets the start tomorrow in Spartanburg.

Good pitching this past weekend. Starters went 5-6 innings deep, bullpen allowed 0.

Will be facing SoCon POTW:

He wasnโ€™t facing out quality of pitching !

Like Northeastern, Wofford stole a bunch of bases last year. They stole 11 last weekend. Looking forward to Poteet and our pitchers shutting down that part of their game.

Solid win. Taylor pitched a gem in the 9th.

Very pleased with what weโ€™ve done so far. This was a great early test for us and we passed.

Kribbs was probably limited since they likely will want him to start Sunday, so essentially it was a bullpen day.

We got to see some of our bullpen depth, and overall it looks pretty solid. Two high traffic innings but damage limited to only 2 R.

Stanton and JT look like our โ€˜go toโ€™ guys and theyโ€™ve been solid. 0.00 ERA, 14 K, over 9.1 IP for them combined.

Pitching is looking really good so far.

Love to win anytime. But itโ€™s Wofford. Just trying to keep things in perspective. Hope we can surprise some of the higher caliber teams on our schedule for a change.

The Terriers are the defending SoCon tournament champs and finished 42-20 last year. As a conference, the SoCon was #8 per the RPI last season, while the AAC was #12. So Iโ€™ll take it as a decent win.

Last yearโ€™s squad loses that game.

AJ Camp looked good as well. He could be a real contributor as a lefty out of the pen.

Wins over Wofford and Northeastern will age very well as the season goes. Wofford was top 50 in RPI last year, Northeastern was 39. I expect both teams to compete near the top of their leagues this year.

ODU was also top 75 last year. It would be huge to take this series.

I didnโ€™t realize this until @49erAlumnus told me, but ODU will not play any true home games this season. Their stadium is getting renovated and they have scheduled all road OOC games. Iโ€™m not sure if they have announced where their home conference games will be played, but they could play at the Norfolk Tides stadium.

Nicely done rebuild. I wonder when our improvements will begin?

Good question. I know a good chunk has been raised for the clubhouse but not sure how close it is to being fully funded.

I know we just got one requirement to host a regional checked off this year by getting regional quality lights installed.

Same starting rotation as last weekend.
