Bazzana is out of gas or something! Frosh and had a long Summer too! Unless he finds it late this game, maybe he needs a break tomorrow, maybe PH/enter late. Let him relax and see the game from the bench for a few innings??

All these runners getting stranded is not a winning formula. Someone has to get a clutch hit.

Utes actually losing plate discipline and allowing Kmatz to keep his pitch count way down!

Its just poor baseball from start to finish. Hopefully its a slump and we can get it out of our systems before the post season.
If I am going to bunt with my #8 hitter (Gretler) I put in a left hander which bunts naturally to the 3rd base side. As much as I have criiticize Dukart putting up a left handed batter in that situation is really a no brainer.

Not executing the bunt really hurt. Got to take advantage of runners on with no outs. Really don't like the decision to play Gretler in place of Dukart. Liking it less now. This should be the end of that I'd think

Other than leaving guys at 3B the first 2 innings, Utes have to extremely happy. Got thru 5 innings with their starter, their pen is better than him, only down 2-1, Kmatz at 73 pitches thru 5 IP. OSU needs to send a message in the 7th that this game is over.
Good move... Balls are getting hit hard. Utes need to see another "view/arm".

Kmatz did well today. No doubt the Utes are a good ball team and he limited them to 1 run and got out of some sticky situations. A step forward I think.

Bazzana definitely needs a break and I have thought that for a while, Canham needs to start coaching more aggressively making some moves especially on the bottom of the batting order.

Again, no offense, as Boyd gets a triple. But, too many watched strikes, weak contact, gonna be hard to stay ahead unless the O gets going.

Gretler has to be able to put that bunt down. He just has to. He's been in the program long enough.
