Charles Fischer Administrator No. 1 Share Posted 21 hours ago This mid-week set of games on Tuesday and Wednesday are a good example of what Coach Waz is trying to schedule. GCU has won the WAC conference in recent years, is projected to be a 30 game winner, and is a front-runner to win the WAC this year. They beat Rutgers three times out of a four game series, and last week swept Texas Tech three games, and beat Pepperdine to get to 11-4 for the season. They are putting up a decent pitcher at a 4.50 ERA against "The Pride of Sherwood," Ian Umlandt, who has an ERA under 1.00 thus far this season. We Gotta Win as Many as Possible! Dominic Hellman is on base again! Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave23 No. 2 Share Posted 19 hours ago D1baseball and ESPN have the Ducks at #9 in the country! The pitching depth looks to be outstanding this year which has been a weak spot in years past. The bats are swinging about a good as can be hoped for with so many batters over .300 it's hard to list them all. Wish I was closer so I could bring the family out for a game or two and support this amazing team. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 6 Share Posted 17 hours ago 1-0 Ducks after two innings, as the 'Lope pitcher has been tough. Waz stated in the pregame interview that the Antelopes are 3-1 against B1G teams, and 1-1 against ranked teams. Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 7 Share Posted 16 hours ago 1-0 Ducks after four innings, as this GCU pitcher has been difficult to crack thus far. Oregon's Umlandt responds in kind! Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 8 Share Posted 16 hours ago 1-0 Ducks after five innings. Crap! Oregon has had two runners on three times now, and can't get the timely hit. GCU has a reliever in there, and he was good too! Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 9 Share Posted 16 hours ago 1-0 Ducks after six innings. Thank goodness that Oregon's Ian Umlandt is keeping them scoreless, but he looked tired in the latter part of the six inning, and I see they are bringing him back out for the seventh?

Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 10 Share Posted 15 hours ago Damn! 3-1 'Lopes after seven innings. Umlandt was tired, as he gave up a home run and a double in his first two batters. Seth Mattox (Reliever) made an error throwing the third in relief to score another run, and now Cole Stokes is trying to hold GCU in check. Oregon left two base runners stranded again.

Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 11 Share Posted 15 hours ago 4-2 GCU and we left two in scoring position again, Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charles Fischer Author Administrator No. 12 Share Posted 14 hours ago GCU wins 4-2, and snaps an 11 game winning streak for Oregon. We had the opportunities, but did not get the timely hits that were needed when we had so many Ducks on base. 1 Mr. FishDuck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDuck No. 13 Share Posted 14 hours ago Game stat: 11 left on base by Oregon, 8 by GCU. But, out of that Oregon 11, there were 5 innings with 2 each LOB. GCU had just 1 inning with 2 LOB. Per Charles observation, 5 innings with two left on is a major missed opportunity....and frustrating for Charles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
