If you're interested, SIU's game with Arkansas St. is on ESPN+ right now. Salukis are ahead 5-1 in the bottom of the 3rd.
You can hear Reis doing radio over the TV guys. 🤣
Salukis lead 11-1 in the 7th. Arkansas State isn't very good.
I think SIU is now a baseball/softball school. Go Dawgs/Dawgettes

you sell us way short here. we just won an MVC title in women's basketball. we are back in the football playoffs. track and field just won a bunch of MVC titles. swimming just finished 2nd in the MAC and won several titles. baseball is finally winning again but we haven't been to the NCAAs in a generation.
Craving a McBride Special!
11-8 loss to a bad Western Michigan team today. Pitching, especially mid-week pitching, is a major problem
That was only Western Michigans 2nd win. They had lost 7 straight.
BTW the baseball team really needs to copy the batting helmets of the softball team. Pretty damn slick.
Coach said he was worried about the depth of his starting pitching more than anything in that pre-season interview with Reis. Hoping we can turn it around.

Luckily the relievers seem pretty decent. I am surprised true freshman Norkus has gotten any IP yet. He was fairly highly rated in high school IIRC.
Doubleheader Sun at 11am at the Itch. Temp around 50. Can't lose another to a bad WMU team.
Dawgs beat up on Western's pitching with a doubleheader sweep on a windy day at the Itch: 29 total hits, 6 HRs, 6 doubles to WMU's 3 doubles and 5 singles.
SIU playing poorly against Tennessee-Martin. 1 hit through 4 innings, down 2-0 with no outs in the bottom of the 4th and runners on 2nd and 3rd. Been picked off at first twice. Ugly baseball.
Salukis lose 5-2. Get 2 hits. What a pathetic showing.
The big UTM lefty pitcher was tough in his 1st start this year. We hit the ball - right at them. It happens.
Let's whip Illinois - starts Fri at 6PM weather permitting. Might rain Friday.
