Travel to Stanford California for the weekend.
Friday 3/11
Noon: #11 Florida State(18-3)
7:30pm Stanford (11-8)
Saturday 3/12
1:30 Florida State
4:00 RV California Polytechnic (14-5)
Sunday 3/13
1:30 Cal Poly
Tuesday 1/15 (at home)
5:00 #17 Minnesota (13-5)
Wednesday 1/16 (at Fayetteville)
5:00 Arkansas (11-9)
Florida State lost to Illinois 5-1 (we lost 5-4) and has a team batting average of .369 and pitching ERA of 1.66
Stanford beat Cal Poly 6-4
Cal Poly hits .307
Minnesota beat Oklahoma 1-0 and lost to Florida State twice 5-4 and 2-0 hits .318
Arkansas beat Wright State 1-0 (we beat 2-1) and hits .317
That’s a challenging week for any team.
For reference Tulsa hits .304 and a ERA of 1.50
Other than Florida State the other 4 teams ERA are not comparable (2.49 and up)
If pitching holds up Tulsa will have a chance to make a lot of noise.
I also think we will need to see a few more of those hits in a row to push a few more runs across than they have been to help the pitchers out.
