Today we'll work to complete the three-game sweep by keeping the Bears of MSU caged again. Today's win would also get us to 30 wins on the season!
The weather is iffy, with a chance for showers or thundershowers throughout the day, with winds at 10 mph from the NNW. Having said that, we have received less precipitation today than expected as about .22 inches have fallin since yesterday's game, through 10:00 this morning.
RHP Jason Van Skike (3-1, 4.09 ERA) will take on LHP Aaron Meade (1-3, 3.70 ERA). Meade, an All-American candidate was solid in his first seven starts, but lacked run support. Then, on April 2nd he suffered sudden pain in his throwing elbow and has been rehabbing the muscles surrounding the elbow for the past month, as an MRI was negative for structural damage. Needless to say, Meade will be on a pitch count...I would guess no more than 80 pitches.
So, we need to get to him at the beginning of the game and force him to throw more pitches. Van Skike will also need to be at the top of his game, keeping MSU cornered as they have been for the past two games.
Today's game is being broadcast on WBOW (1130 & 1300) and through Lve Stats. The link to both is below:
