Summary
The OM bats did the job in Games 1 and 3
Need to get a few more clutch hits and take advantage of the opportunities.
OM did a really good job against AR's two lefties.
Pitching needs to induce more ground balls and not give up the long ball. We miss our spots too much and hang some breaking balls over the heart of the plate.
Have limited options from the left side of the mound out of the bullpen and it showed against AR's lefthanded batters.
Sometimes pitchers have to pitch around an error or a misplay.
AR did a good job of going against the shift. I think AR had 5 ground ball singles going the opposite way against the shift in the three games.
This did not beat us but it kept the inning going.
On to week 2 in SEC play.
Need Moerman and Humphrey to have better weekends at the plate.
Need a couple of bullpen arms to emerge.
