Well we probably weren't going to beat them two years in a row.

Spiders bouncing back nicely, winning 7-1 over JMU in T6. Watching on ESPN+. It does not look like a primo day for baseball in the Commonwealth!

 

[Wood Hall]

Bullpen imploded a bit now 8-5, B7, we have two on and one out.

 

[SFspidur]

Spiders win, 9–5!

 

[Wood Hall]

We win 9-5, nice bounceback. Home with Penn State this weekend.

 

[SFspidur]

Smith only gave up two hits through 5 innings, but one of them was a homer. Spiders down 1–0. Santiago-Cruz coming on in relief for the Spiders.

 

[SFspidur]

PSU tacks on two unearned runs in the top of the 6th thanks to a pair of Spider errors.

Spiders unable to answer in the bottom of the inning as Morris gets easily thrown out at the plate trying to score from second on a single to end the inning, and we're headed to the 7th.

 

[SFspidur]

Spiders fall, 5–0. Fittingly ends with a runner getting thrown out trying to get back to 1st after a shallow fly to center was caught.

I've only been sort of watching these games, but I feel like I'm seeing a lot of mistakes and bad decisions.

 

[SFspidur]

Spiders pick up the 3–0 shutout in the first game of today's doubleheader.

 

[Wood Hall]

Five strong, shutout innings from Joey Giordana, and two innings each from Anvar and Gay.

Game 2 starting soon. Not sure why they are not on ESPN+, probably because the video crews are at lacrosse and basketball.

 

[SFspidur]

Spiders strike first in the third inning of the rubber match, with a leadoff double by Haught, advancing to third on a failed pickoff, and then a sac fly by Dosenbach.

 

[SFspidur]

PSU ties it up in the top of the 8th, but the Spiders respond with solo shots from Winebrenner and Morris to go up 4–2. Only one out and PSU pitching change.

 

[SFspidur]

Penn State gets a solo homer of their own in the 9th and then a walk to get the tying run on, but the Spiders get a groundout to end it and pick up the 4–3 victory to win the series.

 

[Wood Hall]

Sunday's game is cancelled. We play at NC State on Tuesday.

 

[Eight Legger]

Off to a great start against NC State, down 14-0 and being one-hit through five innings...
