OK, I see the plan. Let them score enough to get Mully eligible for a save. Smart move Mitch

4 errors tonight?! We need a chicken bone equivalent for our gloves. At least Mully did his job and slammed the door

Kyler is really scuffling......hopefully he can turn it around. We could really use him as his better ball player self right now.

Boyd struck out on ball 4. He was rightfully disgusted. Good pitch (for the pitcher)

Not a good ball club, right now. Do we have “the pieces” to be?

Thorsteinson, in his debut, faces 6 batters retiring only 2 of them, yet he allows ZERO earned runs. He now leads the team in ERA.
Baseball stats sure are funny.

Pacific 1-11 in their own League (West Coast: LMU, Gonzaga, Portland, BYU...) beats Stanford.
Zach Grech (PAC 12 Leader in saves) takes the Loss.

Not a good ball club, right now. Do we have “the pieces” to be? How about this? We are 40 games in. 40 games into the 2018 season, Oregon State had allowed 23 more runs than in 2021. 40 games into the 2017 season, Oregon State had scored 40 fewer runs than in 2021. Oregon State has scored 28 more runs in 2021 than the 2013 team had up to this point and had a nine-run better run differential. Offensively, this team is better than the team in 2017 up to this point. Defensively/pitching-wise, this team is better than the team in 2018 up to this point. The team seems like it is better, mostly offensively, than in 2013. Looking at a lot of numbers, it looks to me like the players are there. IMHO, the coaching is not. Looking at close games, Oregon State is 15-11 in games decided by four runs or fewer. That is good. Don't get me wrong. But Casey generally put up absurd numbers in close games. At this point in 2017, for example, Casey was 26-2 in games decided by four runs or fewer. This should come as no shocking surprise, but Mitchy Slick is not Casey. To me, the pieces are there. (At least with a healthy Melton, the pieces are there.) Mitchy Slick just cannot seem to consistently put them together. (A lot of his moves seem very inconsistent and puzzling.) Oregon State's RPI is currently 27. Mitchy Slick has six games in 11 days to move up at least two spots (probably need closer to seven spots but at least two), in order to have a chance of hosting a regional. I will have better numbers to look at tomorrow, but, my off-the-cuff guess is that Oregon State should easily be a host, if the Beavers can go at least 5-1 or 6-0 against the Bruins and Trojans. In a normal year, Oregon State should be a host at 4-2. We will see, how normal 2021 is. Short of there, it is certainly possible, but I doubt it. Other games may influence the Beavers needs. A BYU sweep this weekend, for example, should move Oregon State up two spots without the Beavers even playing a single game. Go Beavs!

You can cherry pick all the stats you want, but talent wise, this team is much closer to the 2019 team than the 2017 or 2018 teams. I find it interesting that you think that winning close games is all on the coaches. Don’t you think the talent, mental toughness and fight of the players might have something to do with winning close games?
