Note: This comes right out of the DBU official site and they had us listed as EU, I changed it to UE. Also, note that everyone of their pitchers has better stats than our starting pitchers (at least their ERA is better) but we just seem to find a way to win. Tomorrow they have a pitcher with a 2.70 ERA starting. Should be another good challenge for our guys.

Impressive win in Dallas. It's probably time we start giving each series its own thread. The Otters sold out tonight, there is no reason we can't expect the same next weekend. These guys deserve it.

Not sure if people realize this but DBU in their last three non-conference games (mixed into the conference schedule as mid-week games) have beaten three Big 12 teams. Coming into the Evansville series they beat Oklahoma State which is currently ranked #3 in the country according to NCAA rankings. They beat Oklahoma before that and they beat a TCU squad that was ranked #6 at the time (according to DBU's website schedule) - TCU is no longer in the top 25 though. And our Aces manhandled them tonight. Let's see how the next two games go but again I wouldn't count us out but definitely can't underestimate DBU.

Smith knocked out in the 5th....Aces down 4-2. Heat seemed to impact him today. Struggled hitting his spots and rarely topped 90 mph on his FB, thus failing to offer much CONTRAST between his other pitches & keeping batters off balance.

Aces drop game two 4-3, and drop into a tie for first with SIU as the trees don’t do us any favors losing 14-3.

Aces HC needs to move Craig down a few slots in the batting order to see better pitches & get his stroke back. Also don't see the SS from Heritage Hills as a "cleanup hitter." Simply not his game...

SIU is in the driver seat now as they beat us two games to one in our regular season series match up. Good news is that we are four games up on all of the other MVC teams. Really need the game tomorrow to keep pace with SIU and keep some pressure on them.

Yes, SIU is in the drivers seat, but they finish the season at the birds, who took two of three from DBU on that field.

SIU has to travel to Illinois State, who is much better than their record, while we get three at home against last place Valpo.
