Staton14 Posted March 2, 2015 Report Posted March 2, 2015 Zips are now 5-4 but interestingly each and every one of the four losses is by a single run. Does this translate to the team just being more competitive this year? Does it mean there is a problem at the back end of the bullpen?I think its more of them competing in games that they wouldn't have in the past, but just not quite being able to pull them out. I think the bullpen is solid, at least the few main guys. Quote
GJGood Posted March 3, 2015 Report Posted March 3, 2015 That was my inclination as well. Its just odd to see every loss be by one run. Quote
Staton14 Posted March 4, 2015 Report Posted March 4, 2015 They'll have an extremely tough challenge this weekend against Coastal Carolina, Michigan St, and Michigan. Three very good teams. Quote
Spin Posted March 14, 2015 Report Posted March 14, 2015 I don't think the attendance at softball games are a whole lot better than baseball, yet compare the ballparks. I wonder if softball moms are on a whole different level of "whining" than baseball moms.It's gotta be tough to recruit ball players to that hole.

Makes me sick to my stomach. Honestly, and this is truly embarrassing, but both Walsh University and Malone have nicer baseball facilities than we do. Simply unacceptable. Quote
Staton14 Posted March 23, 2015 Report Posted March 23, 2015 2 of 3 wins to start conference play. 4 home games this week, if the weather holds. Quote

Spin Posted March 27, 2015 Report Posted March 27, 2015 If you're looking for the ballgame on MACVision today, it's snowed out. It will be a double header tomorrow, and with MACVision here all weekend both should be on. Quote

GJGood Posted March 30, 2015 Report Posted March 30, 2015 Keep winning at least two every weekend and find a way to peak at tourney time and things could get pretty interesting. Quote

Spin Posted April 23, 2015 Report Posted April 23, 2015 I don't know how many are keeping up with the Zips this season but we're currently tied for the East Division lead with Portage County at 9-6. They're 21-16 overall and we're 18-19. We have a busy week this week, travelling to Ohio this weekend for a 3 game series then host Malone on Tuesday night, before travelling to YSU Thursday night,. There's still about a month to go in the season, ending up with three "home" games against Can't. BTW CMU has a 3 game lead in the West at 12-3. Quote

We're actually 19-19 after Tuesday's non-conference win over WMU. But yes, very good season, especially in the MAC, so far. Quote
ZachTheZip Posted April 23, 2015 Report Posted April 23, 2015 This weekend, Akron faces one of it's two toughest tests with a series on the road at Ohio, who is one game back in the MAC and has a much better overall record. If the Zips can take two of three there, then they're legit contenders for the MAC championship. Quote
GJGood Posted April 24, 2015 Report Posted April 24, 2015 Big series. Go out and get some wins! I think they are legitimate contenders in Avon if they get there either way. I think this year's team is better than last year's and they were a win away from the title in 2014. Quote
bigzipguy Posted April 25, 2015 Report Posted April 25, 2015 OU gets a run in the bottom of 9 to win 1-0 today. Quote
Spin Posted May 15, 2015 Report Posted May 15, 2015 Man, streaming (or attempting to) is just a huge waste of money. I don't think I have ever gone 20 minutes without it dropping out, and tonight it's completely worthless. Quote
ZachTheZip Posted May 15, 2015 Report Posted May 15, 2015 Zips lose yesterday at Canal Park, but win today at Lee Jackson Field, and clinch a spot in the MAC Tournament.Last game of the regular season is tomorrow at 4:00 at Lee Jackson Field. This game will likely determine the final result of the Wagon Wheel Challenge. Quote
Spin Posted May 19, 2015 Report Posted May 19, 2015 Zips play Eastern Michigan tomorrow at 4:30. Tickets are $15.00 at All Pro Freight Stadium in Avon. And all the games will be on MAC-Sports.com.The bracket: http://www.mac-sports.com/documents/2015/4/21/2015MACBaseballBracket.pdfTough slate playing the 8 seed. Hopefully they play like they did the first half of the conference season., Quote
Spin Posted May 20, 2015 Report Posted May 20, 2015 Western Michigan smoked the Flushes, Ohio beats BG. The winner of our game gets Toledo or Ball St (tonight's game). Quote
