 We played against the two best pitchers in the league; both of them shut down our #s 1 and 4 hitters. The Princeton coach made a brilliant move in holding his ace fro game 2, assuming that whatever happened in game 1 he would see either Penn or Columbia in game 2. So we can go 17-4 over a season in which we only see one ace a weekend, yet in a short series we saw 2 in 2 games. But that is no excuse; our starters pitched well enough in both games; but the relief pitching was awful, especially in game 2. Yet we threw too many pitches in the dirt in game 1, gave up too many walks in both games, and were just flat out outplayed. Despite our record, we really did not have a lights out starting pitcher all year, and if we want to go further in the tournament we will need one going forward. Maybe Andy Leon will be that guy, but we lost him for the season in week 2. Nonetheless my hat is off to this team—17-4 is still a great season.
