It’s almost like nobody wants to post during the game at this point. They don’t want to jinx it. 😂
APPears your post may have done it, down 3-4 bottom of the seventh.

When we don’t beat ourselves we can compete.

Saturday game is now at 11 a.m. due to forecasted weather. Now I can't go due to Easter events in the morning.

Peterson struggles through 5 innings, but has a 4-3 lead with 90 pitches. I would hope we would go to the bullpen in the 6th, despite it's inconsistencies.

In spite of leaving 2 runners on base, Peterson finishes strong with back to back K's to end the 6th. 110 pitches and a 7-3 lead. He's surely done now.

Inexplicably, Peterson out there for the 7th.

Shockingly, Peterson only needed 9 pitches for a 1-2-3 that included a highlight play at SS by Smith. At 119 now. He's a heck of a competitor.

I kinda like rolling Nolan Friday and then putting your two horses Sat/Sunday. Our Sat/Sunday guys would definitely be better than others.

App adds 2 more and leads 9-3 in the 8th and Beaty is on to pitch.

Kam starting to hit the ball hard now, getting his timing back. Denton has looked good at the plate, including his 1st homer. Zamora starting to look better at the plate too. Need to get Soul straightened out. I would put him in Tank's spot Tuesday night against UNCA and see if you can get him going.

Word is that the rotation this series is due to habit. Keep the Friday and Saturday guys on Friday and Saturday when the series moves up a day due to Easter, so it doesn't screw them up next week.

Makes sense this weekend to keep them on schedule but if you throw DiRito Sat and Peterson Sunday on paper they’re better than any matchup.
We’ve done it before where we throw our best Sat/Sunday against others weaker arms to increase our chance of winning 2.
Risk Friday to Win Sat/Sunday.
