[QUOTE="Techcaster572, post: 1000887, member: 6770"] Cornell Game 2 observations and thoughts... Let's start off with Pitching. Aeden & Tate shined yesterday. Aeden Finateri is just flat out a competitor. Dude gets after it on the mound. He just lives in the strike zone and attacks. His fb sits in the mid to upper 80's and his palm ball and breaking stuff sits in the mid 70's. That's a change of pace over 10 mph which makes him very effective. 10k's. Outstanding. Struck out the side twice. Tate McKee just keeps impressing on the mound. Brett Barfield and Caden Gaudette were effective as they combined for 4k's in 3.0 innings with only 1 BB. :) Yes Sir! 2 runs given up. One BB all game! That's what I'm talking about! I said this yesterday, but Cornell has some good hitters that take good ab's. Their 3-hole hitter, Nathan Waugh (C) is a big guy that barrels up the ball. Wouldn't be shocked to see this kid hit the portal and end up at a big-time baseball school next year. I am perfectly comfortable giving up 5-6 runs as long as it is earned by contact and not through walks or hbp's. You will not find very many pitchers like Chase Burns (UT), Leiter Kid, Kumar Rocker, or even Zach Maxwell that are nearly unhittable at the college level. College offenses are just too good these days and with the portal, lots of talent out there. Key to college pitching is to minimize damage, attack, and pound the zone. Let's talk offense. This team is just deep offensively. Lots of options. Let me start by saying that I like that CDH moved Ellis down to the cleanup spot yesterday. He went 1-3 with a BB. His base hit was crucial as it led to the 8 inning first. With two outs and in the 1st, Ellis fought off an inside fb down the left field line for a double with two outs in the inning. The flood gates opened after that. I know everyone wants to talk the freshmen phenom and he deserves it but I want to focus on Bobby "Barrells", John Giesler, and Mike Beccheti. They combined for 2 hr's and 8 rbi's (3 each for Giesler & Beccheti). Giesler - 2 for 4 Bobby - 1 for 3 BB Beccheti- 2 for 3 BB Alright, let's talk Drew Burress. Two moonshots in the 1st inning. This kid is the REAL DEAL. Don't care about level of competition. Not saying he will keep this pace throughout the year but we have found our leadoff man for the next two years. 2 hr's. 4 rbi's. 2 for 4. Taken out early with the bases loaded and pitch hit for by M. Graziano so it could've been much more. Follows this up on the game tying double friday night to drive 3 rbi's in. Kid is just special. My son has his first baseball game on Tuesday and his play next Friday so unfortunately I can't make either game. If anyone would like my ticket to the Ga State game, send me a pm. UGA ticket already found a home. I'll be there today for hopefully the sweep against Cornell. 6-0. Go Jackets! [/QUOTE]
