Zack Gelof is playing in the World Baseball Classic! #TeamIsrael
The UVA baseball season officially starts this Friday. There’s been a schedule change, looks like due to inclement weather our season opener has been moved from Wilmington to The Dish at 2PM:
Free entry, so if you’ve got an open afternoon there’s not many better ways to spend it than going to see a Hoos baseball game IMO.
This looks to be the starting rotation, at least to begin the year. O’Connor was the prized recruit from this year’s class and has a very high ceiling as a starter. Couple of surprises, no Jake Berry who had the most starts for us of any returning pitcher on our roster or Connelly Early the transfer from Army who was the 2022 Patriot League Pitcher of the Year.
Weekend preview.
Northwestern transfer Ethan O’Donnell smashes the first HR of the season. Hoos are up 5-0 in the 3rd.
Wow, Pitchers and Catchers just reported. Forgot how soon colleges start.
9-0 HOOS now heading into the 5th. Pair of dingers for Kyle Teel and Casey Saucke.
Edgington has looked very solid on the mound.
Had to leave early but it’s 23-2 Hoos in the bottom of the 5th lol. We’ve batted around twice this inning.
Final after 7.
That’s a score the football team would be jealous of
How many times will the football team outscore the baseball team today?
Figures the offense would give up a safety….
Oh, my.
Gelof also homered.
UVA pitchers struck out 15. And Nick Parker closed his start striking out the last 7 batters he faced.
Finally, a UVA team that can beat Ohio
Big revenge energy today.
We plunked a couple guys too. I like to think we were sending a message.
We only had 19 hits today, couldn’t quite match the 20 we put up yesterday. Guys need to step it up.
