Baseball March 14th

We are here in Kansas and Nate's team won both games to take 1st place in their conference play. Nate warmed up ready to go in for the second game but his roommate Derek ended up pitching the entire game to get a win. He pitched great. So we are hoping Nate will pitch the first game tomorrow before we have to drive home. If he does, we will post some pics.

Sam Houston played Texas State University a doubleheader today in San Marcos. They won the first game but in the second, they were down 6-2 in the last out of the 6th inning and Matt came in to pitch 2 1/3 innings only giving up 1 hit, no runs and 1 strikeout. That will bring his ERA down even further to 2.13. They lost the game but Matt pitched great and hopefully they will win the series tomorrow.

Baseball Update

Matt picked up his 4th win today in relief, while SHSU swept UTA in conference play. He has 11 strikeouts so far. With 4 wins, he is tied for first place in the nation with two other players. http://www.boydsworld.com/data/leaderboard.html#ERA

Nate's team played yesterday in Kansas but had to call the game for a tornado warning. They were hustled off the field and into a concrete building. Only in Kansas, right?

It was a late night!

Matt was called in to pitch the nightcap game against Missouri State yesterday. However, it was after midnight when he entered in the 6th inning! The tournament had gotten backed up throughout the day and SHSU had the last game of the day, not starting until 9:35. The game finished after 1, with the win. Matt had 3 hits and 3Ks in 3 2/3 innings.

Nate's team postponed their games yesterday, it was in the 20s.
