T1

ND gets a 1 out solo HR over RF to give them the early 1-0 lead

 

[BWilk55]

He looked pretty sharp that inning. Got behind in the count to the 2nd hitter and a good piece of hitting to make him pay with the HR. Otherwise he seemed to have the FB and breaker working and throwing for strikes.

Hansen needs to settle in or it could be another short outing.

Needs to keep the ball down.  Living upstairs against this team has potentially bad results.

Looked safe on live look but may be tough to overturn.

[BWilk55]

Pete isn't lights out so far but definitely better than he was last Friday. Mostly hitting his spots, but the Irish are making him pay when he doesn't.

Ardoin didn't do him any favors giving up the stolen base. 

 

[Huskie1]

Need some base runners!!

 

[BWilk55]

Need some base runners!!

Have not put much pressure on this starter. 

Don't want to be down late in this one, they have a stud closer.
