Ty Johnson struggling on the mound in the first.
BSU jumped out to a 1-0 lead on a Peltier homer.
Johnson HBPed two of the first three batters and walked three more. BSU had a passed ball and a throwing error. Charlotte scored 3 runs.

Ball State loses first of two on Saturday 9-4.
BSU pitching gave up 14 free passes (10 BB and 4 HBP) to Charlotte. Charlotte scores 9 runs on six hits and still strands 10 on base.

50 walks and 8 hit batters in 27 innings. Not sure this is considered remotely acceptable regardless of umpires or being first series of the year.

Pitching is an issue but hopefully that’ll get squared away over time.

Rough, rough weekend. Looking at the box scores, a few pitchers who were supposed to contribute didn't see any action: Bargo, Wise, Klein, Guthrop, Schulfer, so I'm assuming injuries are a problem. I'm not sure when Bargo is due back - maybe conference season?
Peltier hit a HR in each game - impressive.

Charlotte leads the NCAA in total Bases on Balls (50) www.ncaa.com/stats/baseball/d1/current/team/496Their OBP for the weekend is .512 (3rd in NCAA). Their Slugging Pct. was only .340 (194th) because they were looking for the free pass. and Ball State is 279th (out of 279) in Walks/Nine Innings averaging 16.67 walks/9 www.ncaa.com/stats/baseball/d1/current/team/509/p6Luckily, BSU had enough Ks to stay out of the cellar for K:BB ratio. Finished the weekend in 268th. Also, BSU had a WHIP of 2.78. (276th) A pitcher faces a minimum of 27 hitters in a 9-inning game, except when you are with Ball State. Then you face a minimum of 44 hitters per game. If all games were a full 9-innings of pitching, BSU pitching would've faced 54.33 hitters per 9-innings.
That is going to take awhile to work down

I don’t think I’ve ever seen that many walks issued in a 3 game series. Got to get that control figured out as we move through the season. Brutal.

Wyatt Hudepohl (aka Hudey-pop), Charlotte's Friday starter and only pitcher Ball State beat this year, goes to the Mets in the 4th round. Estimated $536k.
