Very ugly game on Cooper's part. I quit counting after 11 errors or plays that should have been made (miscommunication on pop-up, not charging routine ground balls, etc..). They also had 4 runners out on base running mistakes. Holy Cross did not use their top pitchers and Cooper didn't take advantage. Hopefully this was just "one of those games".

 

Congrats to Holy Cross!

I hear Nate Cox wins in his first Varisty appearance. Great job!

11 chargeable errors would be almost impressive to watch - kind of like staring at a car accident. That being said, if you can play that miserably and still be in the game, it would qualify as a small silver lining.

How many pitchers did HC use? They often use quite a few in the early games.

How is that a silver lining? Holy Cross didn't use any of their better pitchers. I would think Holy Cross would have taken more from that game than Cooper. Especially, if Cooper used one of their top 2 pitchers.

Maybe Cooper didn't either. They played Ryle last night and may have used them then. Couldn't care less whether HC used their top pitchers or not - if you can play as bad as Cooper apparently played and still be in the game to some degree, it's at least a small positive.

Cooper used one of their better pitchers the first three inning's. He gave up 3 runs but should have been zero. Just one game and it's early in the season so kids will play their way in, or out, of the line-up based on their performance. The key is to be improving as the season goes along. There are several new varsity players this year so no need to panic yet, but last night was not pretty.

HC used 4 pitchers in 9 innings Monday.

 

They used 3 last night.

 

Cox 4 innings 1 run, in first varsity outing ever.

 

Kahman 2 innings 4 runs, in first varsity outing ever.

 

Guidigili (sp) closed with a scoreless 7th.
