I think we know who the best team in the MVC is. Unfortunately, it's not us. I never thought this team would be as good as last year - too many outstanding players graduated. Need better pitching. Have to win the tournament to get to the NCAA.

Dawgs flush the Redturds 11 - 1. Bloemer was excellent as our starter.

Matt Shark exploded a 420 ft line drive over the centerfield wall to run rule the Turds in the bottom of the 7th. That's what I call a fun game to watch.

 

Game 2 tomorrow at 2:00 PM at the Itch.

Dogs blow a 4-3 lead in the 7th and lose to the Turds in the ninth. Rubber match tomorrow at 1:00 p.m. You can listen to Mr. Reis online.

About to lose the series to a bad Illinois St team.

Turds have hit our relief pitching. Currently up 7 - 6 in top of the 11th.

Let’s turn this around and get a win at Valpo today and then go on a streak to finish the season.

The Shark hits a walk off shot down the 3rd base line to walk off Ed. State in 10 innings. Brandon Mullins was there with his dog. It wasn't a Saluki. Very disappointed.

Dawgs up 3-1 in the 9th. Hopefully they can close it out unlike the previous 2 games of the series. 

One series left against Murray St before the Valley tournament. At 13-10 (hopefully 14-10 after today), they're in a logjam in the middle of the league along with Evansville, Murray St, and UIC. 

Indiana St has a huge series with MSU next weekend that looks to be for the league champion.

Quite the year for Indiana St. I wonder if their coach Hannahs get any looks from bigger programs after this year. He's had them as a really solid program throughout his tenure.

SIUs current method of recruiting isn't sustainable nor conducive to a winning program.

All but 3 players are JUCO or other transfers. They had exactly one prep recruit on the team. 

With this type of team building you are going to have massive swings of success and mediocrity as the roster turnover is constant.

the last 3 years have been pretty good probably the best 3 year stretch since Itchy left

Hoping Saluki baseball makes some noise in the MVC Tournament.  This season hasn’t lived up to expectations.  Shocked that SIU finished 3rd in the conference.  We need to get back to the NCAA Tournament.

Meltdown for the pitching in the 7th.  Evansville has scored 4 and counting.  Pretty much the microcosm of this season.
