MAC Baseball Tourney

We made some bonehead plays in my my mind. As an example, should have not come back with Cline in 7th and poor base running on past ball, poor pitching, etc

And who needs pitching and defense to win a championship when you can just outscore everyone?

Very disappointing to say the least. Give credit where credit is due tho, the better team won today.

You would not be wishing them luck had you been at the series a few weeks ago or at the tournament or read their comments online. From the head coach all the way down to their staff, players, fans, parents/ families, athletic trainers/ other support staff, they are classless trash. I've seen opponents act without class, but they take it to a completely different level.

The sad thing is, it's a very good program with very good players and coaches. They don't need to act that way. But as we have said for years on here (originated by Ruffled Feathers, I believe), a fish rots from the head, and that head is Jordan Bischell. 

You can’t give up 9 runs in the last 4 innings and expect to win. Pitcher order selection clearly didn’t work.
6 errors previous game also unacceptable.

The most bonehead move was bringing in Schweitzer a few days after 143 pitches with the game tied in the 7th. Blink of the eye we’re down 2. He was more than spent, and the fact Maloney didn’t know that is pathetic. Props to the kid for trying but sometimes you need to check yourself and get out of your own way. That’s why we have adults as coaches. That was a direct slap in the face to our pitching staff and may have affected their confidence going forward. Didn’t that same staff help us win 5 in a row against them?

It’s clear Maloney was not a pitcher.

Good year, but not great. We and they should be proud of the teams effort and season.

Poor W/L versus out of conference schedule doomed at large bid. We had to win the tournament and once again didn’t get it done.

CMU coach 3 for 4 getting them to the dance. Math wizards have that at 75%.

Maloney 0 for 17 for good ole Ball U….0%
4-27 overall (10 years at Michigan for the 4…that’s 15%).
Out of curiosity, how many times has Maloney’s team lost in the MAC tourney championship? Probably the reason for the desperation.

Say what you want about CMU’s coach but he clearly knows how to coach at crunch time. The good news is he’ll probably be the head coach of a power five conference soon.

Bischel is definitely currently the best manager for sure given CMU hadn't missed a tournament yet(2020 doesn't count), and he's going to be a hot managerial commodity especially being 40 yr old but Maloney is better than you'll ever give him credit for. Unfortunately for you, I bet Maloney retires here in 5-10 seasons. You must also think Brady Sallee is trash for the women's program since they've never reached the NCAAs too. Sometimes in a single bid league, it's not always that black and white.

There's a big difference between Maloney/Sallee that consistently win alot of MAC games vs the last 4 BSU basketball coaches. Yes it sucks neither has made the NCAA but there's a reason neither has any job security concerns unlike Whitford
