Michigan Baseball vs Cal Poly stream

Submitted by Bambi on February 15th, 2020 at 3:29 PM

Trying to keep the fan momentum going after last year and last night, Michigan is playing Cal Poly out in AZ in the first game of 2 today. The top of the first just ended with Michigan putting up 3 (with some help by poor CP fielding) and forcing the CP starter to throw almost 40 pitches.

Game 2 should start around 8 PM EST against Arizona St.

Helluva play by Jack Blomgren to finish off Cal Poly, after they had already scored 2 in the 9th and had 2 in scoring position!  

Too early to worry too awful much about our bullpen (especially the closer/9th inning guys), but for the 2nd straight game, 2 HBP in the 9th put us in dire straits until our defense bailed us out.

Can't stress it enough, a pitching staff can NOT allow the opposition free baserunners and win consistently.

But ugly though it might have been in the 9th, Michigan prevailed and is now 2-0 as they head directly to Phoenix to face the Sun Devils.

Yes, and Michigan is also playing a 4-man rotation this weekend.  The usual 3-man weekend rotation, once it starts in March, will free up 1 starter to move to the bullpen.  The only thing that has worried me about the pitching staff so far is that Ben Dragani didn't look anywhere close to 100 percent.
