Bauk is the closer so Mann-Fix will see plenty of time in center and possibly right.

That's a very young squad! Not likely to find much success this year but the future could be promising.

Apps give up 5 in the first, trail 6-0 in the 3rd.

Edit: Now 15-0 in the 6th.

I know Coastal is a good team, but I expected us to show up. I'm afraid we might be in rebuilding mode.

Fourth season under Jones, and this is a rebuilding year? When you rebuild usually there was something there prior.

That's better. Interesting, after four years we are in a building mode. Well, here's hoping for the best.

Yeah, we had to run off all of those pollard recruits. As though they were not any good. Its all part of the master plan :roll:

No doubt the talent was there, not saying it wasn't. Anyway, fresh faces - new start, here's to success for the future. In the mean time, like some have said, it's going to be another long season.

Look at the play starting at the 1:00 mark in the video. What was the third-base coach thinking?

I'm aggressive when I coach 3rd, but that's just bad.
