Subject: Re: The Ivy Race Author: Bengal [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 21:58:47 05/03/24 Fri In reply to: Bengal 's message, "The Ivy Race" on 16:56:59 04/29/24 Mon P wins opener 4-2 after our starter goes 2 1/3 before injury sidelined him. Faulkner goes the rest of the way improbably stilling Columbia bats until the 9th. I kept expecting Columbia to erupt but it never did. Was this the regular Columbia lineup? Given our depleted pitching ranks, now held together by Scotch tape and Elmer’s Glue, and the strength of the Columbia lineup, I assume Columbia will score a more familiar number of runs tomorrow. With this win and Penn’s loss, P is now in the Ivy tournament. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Our offense was poor in game 1 and we deserved to lose despite a decent pitching performance. Our game 2 starter and offense were decent but our middle reliever was terrible and we dodged a bullet to hold on to the win. Game 3 was a different story—tremendous starting pitching, the bullpen held up, and the bats came alive. In his last 2 games Santana pitched if I’m correct 12 scoreless innings and was dominant. If our middle reliever from today’s opener pitches any more this year, we are in trouble. And Hage had a bad three games at the plate, which was a surprise. In any event, Princeton played us tough and is a dangerous team

I don’t know enough about the other play off teams, but Columbia looks solid enough to win with such offensive ability. Bradley is a very good coach. He dealt with adversity on a couple of fronts from Bandura jumping to the pros and injuries to the pitching staff but still managed to field a club to 12-9 in the League. One of Walters’ out of the box hires that worked a long time ago.
