horst muhlmann Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Both teams are scoring runs in bunches so of course, the team with the better pitching will likely prevail. Having spoken to a couple of parents from kids on both squads, I give the pitching edge to Beechwood. Should be a good one. Tigers 8, Colonels 7 in a classic, although I wouldn't be surprised if CovCath won either. Mullins was quoted in today's morning paper saying he thought the all A state tourney (which begins this Thursday apparently) was more important than this district seeding game.

I would guess that All A is only more important this year since Holy Cross is down and there really isn't a 3rd team in the district that should threaten. My guess is that he sang a different tune last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjaynes Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 I would guess that All A is only more important this year since Holy Cross is down and there really isn't a 3rd team in the district that should threaten. My guess is that he sang a different tune last year. At this juncture last year Beechwood was eliminated from the All "A" so there was no tune to be sung. This week, Beechwood has a shot of going to Lexington so I would imagine the team is pointing to the Brossart game. Not that the CCH game tonight is not important but there is a good chance that these two times will hook up again, maybe twice, when the All "A" will be long over with.

BaseballIsLife Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Beechwood by 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imhisdad Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Both of these teams will be in regional. Considering Mullins quotes, no way he throws Suchanek. Combs threw Saturday and Stringer is the closer, so that leaves the Fieger kid as my guess. I will go with CC 5-3 in a good one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to believe they won't even throw Fieger. This game really is meaningless - both teams are going to the regional no matter what happens in this seed game. With the Tigers focused on the All A, I can see them holding back any pitcher they might use against Brossart on Thursday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did so vs LaSalle and Conner as well, with the later being right before an All A game. Not sure how that tourney works, but a state tourney in mid season seems to wreak havoc on rotations.

Clyde Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Nothing shouts BIG game like "we'd rather play Brossart in the A." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imhisdad Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Also just snuck a peek at BW sked. This weekend features games vs CAL and Tates Creek, and a third vs a team Ive never heard of. Very well could throw the towel in on this one tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
75center Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Still odd for me to listen to people discuss BW's pitching rotation. I remember the days when the coach chose his starter just before game time when he knew which players were going to show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a coach thinks like that they are assanine. I think it will be a great game and could see CCH winning this even if BW threw their ace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
