Good pitching gives you a chance to win. And I have been pleasantly surprised... everyone is pitching well, chasing our starter doesn’t really do you any good.

9th inning, 2 outs, no problem. This has the makings of a special squad. Sorta felt like Omaha 2018....Every pitch counts.

Ohl totally and completely dominated the Beavers. Good win against a tough team, but the Beaver bats will face a lot of tougher pitchers. Pitching is incredible.

Very good pitching. Their poor left fielder missed both Balls by inches. What a clutch job. Their Broadcast local Fox Station was good. Why we do not do this is beyond Me. Well here I go again. Good Job. Casey at the Bat.

This team will go as far at the hitting takes them. So far they like a team that can wear out Wednesday- university of Portland type pitchers and struggle against front line guys. The guy tonight was alright but we made him look like cy young. Way too passive, allowing the pitcher to dictate the at-bat. A lot of strikeouts looking and some of our swinging strikeouts out are because of the count we let the pitchers get us into and we expand the zone trying to protect. To be a good hitter you must be in attack mode

Jim Wilson talked in the post game about how osu needs to be able to hit right handed pitching. That will determine a lot of games.

To be a good hitter you must be in attack mode Don’t agree with your assessment of the GCU pitcher. Had a good three-pitch mix, hit the zone all night, was not overpowering, but kept the hitter guessing. When you are hitting the zone, with three different pitches, going to be a long night until you can get him out of the game

It’s depressing that GCU YouTube is better than PAC-12 network This is actually the local fox affiliate being streamed. Better than last night’s game where we missed multiple plays cuz they failed to switch to the correct camera

Let's not forget the VERY generous strike zone as well. It was (mostly) consistent for both teams, so no real complaints here, but any team was going to struggle with batting tonight.
No reason to get down about this game. Quite the opposite, in fact. This is a game that brings a team together. Everybody struggling, nothing going right, but when it counts they can reach down and lift each other up, and now they KNOW it.
Batting averages, slugging percentages, and fielding percentages can only bring you so far...you need to come together as a team and trust each other no matter what come hell or high water, and it was thrilling to see that happen tonight, and so early in the season.
Really pumped about watching what this squad can do...
GO BEAVS!

Definitely had a lot of that dejavu from Arkansas Game 2 in it.......GCU played a great game as well. Left fielder messed up on a couple of balls his way but sometimes we get a break our ways. I thought the one run by GCU was in their favor with how the batter made contact with a high inside ball.
Great to see the Mully of old on the mound. If this team can get a little more consistency with their bats......sky is the limit.
