It will be very interesting to see who Krumps puts on the hill. If Severson's arm is OK then I'd guess it will be him. However, if it's not healthy then it gets interesting.

Would Krumps consider giving the ball to Brian Fagel after he shut down the Indians last Saturday night?

 

Ritter or Fuller for Holy Cross is the other question.

My "guess" is that it will be either Sevvy or Maile to start simply because of the matchups. I think every pitcher will be available that game since it is THE game to get you to the region. I'm sure they'd like to keep Shumate fresh for the next game should there be one. Fagel , should he pitch, would come in as a reliever.

There would be no reason to keep Shumate fresh. It's now or never.

 

I hand the ball to the senior in this situation. JMO.

If you want to win it's Sevy or Maile with Shumate in relief.

Then it's a no brainer....let the parade begin.

My comment about keeping Shumate fresh was aimed more at how poorly HC has fared against lefties this year. It's certainly not a slight against Adam.

Didn't they score 3 runs in top of 8th against Shumate?

I should add(just so no one thinks I'm being critical) Shumate has obviously performed well . Hanover spent a lot of time following him around so the kid can pitch. It just seems that the strategy would be to go lefty against HC. Not sure why but recent history says they haven't hit LH well. However, if Krumps thinks Shumate is his best pitcher he may choose him simply because of the "must win" nature. It will be an interesting decision.

Who will Holy Cross throw. Somebody mentioned Nick Ritter? I don't follow HC very much, but there was another Ritter a few years ago. There was this saying "nobody better" that used to follow him when he played. I don't know, maybe something made up by a family friend, teammate or something. Wonder if it still follows the younger Ritter? I'm sure it does. He seems to be a pretty good athlete.

I'd guess , just like the seed game, Coach Holtz will go with Ritter and Fuller.

 

Nick does have an older brother.

 

Nick is a great kid. Great personality.

First one to 3 wins.
