Good start for BU baseball - they go 3-0 in a weekend series vs. Alcorn State
..we need to keep it up, the competition gets tougher (Alcorn was 16-41 last season with RPI 291 out of 298 )
Bradley rallies and beats UALR again to run their record to 5-1..
Some bright spots-
**Freshman 3rd baseman from Metamora, Spencer Gaa was hitting .421 going into this afternoon's game, also drawing six walks and committing only one error thus far.
**two other BU players are hitting over .400 and eight of the starters are hitting over .300. Team BA is .314 - I know it's not gonna last but nice so far.
**Greg Partyka & Tyler Leffler have 12 & 8 RBI respectively -- combining for over 3 RBI each game between the two of them.
**of the five guys who have pitched the most - four of them have an ERA under 3.50
**our pitchers have a ratio of 55 K's thus far to 16 walks.
The Bradley baseball teams continues with their winning ways, scoring 13 runs in the last 3 innings to beat Xavier 15-5 at a tournament at Clarksville, Tennessee. Tyler Leffler continues his hot start with 3 hits and 5 runs scored. For the season Tyler is hitting .423, has a slugging % of .731 and an on base % of .605. For the season BU is batting .314 and averaging 6.6 runs a game while the pitching staff has a 3.41 ERA and holding teams to a .225 batting average. Today they play both Dayton and the hosts school Austin Peay. The Braves have 5 more road games until their home opener on March 15, a doubleheader against NIU. Keep up the good work boys.
Bradley baseball looks good in the early going - we are 7-2 and this, I think, proves again that we have very good talent
We had players last year who were among the NATION's leaders...
ST. LOUIS ? Bradley senior outfielder Mike Tauchman has been named the 2013 Joe Carter MVC Player of the Year, according to a vote of the league's eight head coaches announced Monday afternoon.
so we ought to have a better season in the MVC this year - no excuses....
BU Baseball was off to a great start...going 13-3 against the non-conference opponents...but Bradley baseball started MVC play yesterday and got swept in a doubleheader.. by Illinois State .. combined score 20-7...
BU starts MVC play 0-2
A similar thing happened last year - BU won 15 games against non-conference opponents - then won only 2 more the entire rest of the season against MVC foes, as they went just 2-19 in Missouri Valley conference play. Let's hope we don't see a replay.
Bradley has good players - note the MVC baseball stats...
BU is batting .300 as a team - and Bradley guys dominate the individual stats... (LINK
..same last year when Bradley had some of the best hitters in the MVC -
we ought to be finishing better in the MVC....there's still time this year..
They made at least one good play: Saturday evening's top ten plays on Saturday featured a diving play by our shortstop. It was number 3 or 4 I think, but I am having trouble finding the video tonight.
Bradley has a big 3-game weekend series with Missouri State. They also started a season-long 9-game home stand today. But they got off to a bad start with a 6-5 loss today.
PEORIA, Ill. -- Missouri State had not recorded a hit since one out in the second inning, but the Bears strung together four straight 2-out hits in the 9th to rally for a 6-5 win at Bradley Friday.
After a nice start to the season , Bradley baseball has now lost 7 of their last 9 games to fall to 3-7 in the MVC and 17-12 overall. They play again Saturday and Sunday nights.
