I'd like to apologize for not doing my synopsis on Tuesday, taking 18 hours and having a four-week-old ate up all my time this week, so I was unable to write up my weekend overview for last series, and my synopsis for Tuesday. I can release those tomorrow if anyone really cares for them. If not, I'll just do everything as regularly planned and I should be good to not miss anything next week.

Player of the Game: Shane Sdao
This is what I want to see from our starting pitchers. 7 innings, 7 Ks, and only three hits is a phenomenal appearance for Sdao. He looks like he's getting back into his stride and gives me hope for him as a starter. Also, congrats to him for tying his career high of seven innings pitched and setting a new career high in strikeouts.

Offensive Player of the Game: Boston Kellner
Gotta give it to the fish that won us the game. When he hit that walk off all I was thinking was "Well, hopefully this allows Farr to advance to Third". And then their Center Fielder dropped the ball, and the rest was history.

Overall Takeaways
This is the baseball that I know and love. Most people that complain about a good ole fashioned pitchers' duel have probably never stepped on the diamond in their life. Did I wish we could have brought more guys in and not leave so many RISP, yes. Did I enjoy how efficient our pitchers were on the mound when in tough situations, also yes. Winning games like these show that a team has what it takes to win the important games and I'm really proud of these guys for sticking it out all nine innings. Today once again showed that we don't have to explosive at the dish to add on to our win column and I can't wait to see what the rest of this weekend holds. I'll talk to y'all tomorrow and BTHOPenn. (Also, I love that Hayden Schott is still a D1 hater of the Quakers)

Official scorers were tough tonight. Kellner's last AB was ruled an error. Guy didn't come close to getting a glove on it. Granted he misjudged the ball, but tough play. Also thought the error on Partida was questionable. Slow roller where if he fielded it cleanly it still would have been a tough play.

Ok, wasn't sure if it was ruled an error or not on that last play. I personally would have called it an error due to that looking like a routine fly ball (Yes, I know balls hit 100+ right at you are the hardest thing to catch, but still). But the play by play I looked at called it a double, so I'm going with that. If it's changed to an error when I next check it, I'll update the stat. (This is not supposed to sound negative btw, I'm just terrible at expressing the proper emotion via text)

Boston's hit should not be ruled an error, by the rules at least.

Maybe it was ruled a hit. I saw an error on their CF Collins in the official box score and I just assumed it was on Kellner's last AB.

Looking back now I believe the error on the CF was on Duer's basehit that allowed him to advance to 2nd. Kellner credited with hit and game winning RBI.

Disregard, I saw you other comment.

The error on Collins was off of Duer's single in the 8th, which he advanced to Second on. I believe he either bobbled the ball, or just didn't field it properly in the outfield. I was changing a diaper at that time, so I'm not 100%.

You are correct.

Ok, outfield errors are one of the few things that I'm not 100% on. We were always told even if it's not an error, you still got to make that play.

Agreed. He didn't touch it so it's a hit, no matter whether he should have or not. That's just the way it's scored.

That was a tougher play to make than it looked. Outfield was playing in and that ball was smoked on a pretty low trajectory. A good outfield makes the catch but it's harder than it looks

Another thing to keep in mind with these northern teams is they really don't have many opportunities to get outside and practice fielding deep flies. You can practice ground balls indoors all day long but it really can be tough to get practice on a ball like that

Pop ups that fall between two players staring at each other are also not scored an error…and yes both plays still have to be made.

pitchers' duels come in different shapes and sizes

A&M had 12 baserunners tonight

According to the Texas A&M Athletics website, the walk-off and winning play was scored as " KELLNER doubled to center field, RBI (0-0); FARR scored."

It was a rocket line-drive, right at the CFer, who misjudged it and came in on it rather than retreat, as he should have. Not sure if he could have caught it even if he hadn't misplayed it.

Yes, the fielder never touched the ball.

I loved what I saw from Sdao. Much better performance than his first game. The team swung at bad pitches tonight way too much
