2012 UAA Baseball Championship Day 2
Day 1 Recap: Emory opened with a 6-0 shutout of Brandeis, and Rochester started 0-2 with tough close losses, losing to Washington 1-0 and Case 2-1. The Spartans got a great start from Jamie Hora, great relief from Jose Vega, good baserunning and capitalized on Rochester errors. Day 2 Case plays in the second game [...]

A quick recap of Friday’s games (athletics website recap here): The Spartans swept John Carroll to move to 2-0. Jamie Hora picked up the win in the first game, while A.J. Boshinski picked up the win in the second game. Jose Vega struck out the side in picking up a save in the second game, [...]

For the Case Western Reserve baseball team to continue its rise to national prominence, to make playoff trips a regular thing, there will always have to be regular improvements from the pitching staff. Their 5.24 ERA was the best for a Case pitching staff since 1999, but still ranked in the middle of the pack [...]

So, Case Western Reserve made their first-ever NCAA playoffs. It’s a watershed moment for the program, and huge strides since just four years ago, when beating Myers University three out of four was an accomplishment (and I was doing scorekeeping on a laptop in foul territory, with a chalk square around me being a dead [...]

These are two key games, as the Spartans have three games left to reach the magic number of 30 wins. They are currently 28-12, and while that would probably still get them in (more on that later next week, after the regular season’s done), I think they need to get to 30 to impress the [...]

Yesterday: As I had said in yesterday’s post, the defense was shoddy, and that may have cost game 1, but Jamie Hora didn’t let that stop him in game 2, throwing a two-hit shutout. Still, the Spartans can’t afford to split many doubleheaders like these if they’re to make the postseason. Today: Spartans (11-6) at [...]

Yesterday: The Spartans started the 2011 season off well, sweeping Averett University 8-7 and 8-2. As I mentioned yesterday on my Twitter feed (follow it, people!), the first game really should also have been 8-2, or at least 8-4 or 8-5. The Spartans had an 8-2 lead going into the seventh inning (as you may [...]

If the CWRU baseball team is to take the next step and make the NCAA playoffs this year, it will be because of another year of improvement by the pitching staff. The pitching took a big step in the right direction last year, going from a 7.66 ERA to a 6.11 ERA. Every key member [...]

Normally, I wouldn’t give this a separate post when the Spartans are playing today, but a number of things need to be said about Saturday’s doubleheader, at the College of Wooster, which was split with the Spartans winning 7-5 and losing 13-8, in the usual bullety-point form. Most importantly, the offense returned to form on Saturday. [...]
