It's time now for the book -- pregame show. -- your host Mike Kennedy and shamed MX presented five preferred health system's health plans would work.
Good afternoon and welcome to -- stadium for the regular season finale for the 2010 season Wichita State taking on Dallas Baptist in a final game of the three game series shocker is going for the series sweep. And trying to take some positive -- to next week's Missouri Valley Conference turned it. Certainly the game will start with a lot of positive feeling in the places in his senior day for ten shocker seniors will be recognized before the game. Six will be in the starting line up. So that doctors will showcase their seniors today have much to continue to have a little bit of aroma there on so far this week.
We talked a little bit last night a lot of our content is right time Brian -- a little bit offensively -- it will alliance. And Clinton make fevers get back in the lineup now it's hard hit ball well. -- well anybody at batting -- got him. Opportunity to back in line Brent you go on and on well pretty much to a man seniors and all help. Costing one way or another and most of them getting hot the right time. This is always kind of an emotional day you were -- player here talk a little bit about it and feeling especially when you have a large group like this it's funny you mentioned obviously about that Portland on the air that a lot of these guys. If they have a real good career don't get to see your day you know they -- it to you here. Or maybe -- I'll stop or. Go play pro ball but. Myself -- Jackson State received here so -- Paloma. You know that's. 33 guys that an important driver left but three guys that locked me in and it was. Count one of those days where. You. -- a little bit try to soak it in one of the few days where you look up into the crowd and acknowledge all the people it's nice to be recognized or. Everything -- the program vice Versa you know the fans here obviously support for which -- baseball like crazy it's nice to go out I think bowel movement.
Very accurate and obviously it's also a day dead. Sort of raises a lot of questions are a lot of expectations. For what happens after today. Charlie lol is certainly a big part of that you know certainly some of the guys that may see action on the ball better all part of that so. Hopefully there's some answers at the end of the day that they were feeling pretty good about lot of these people go into the post season.
Good point -- a lot of them not seniors will -- I have every bit to do with whether these ten guys continue to go on to play -- post season baseball for Wichita State. Charlie albeit one -- obviously down the line talking about Jordan Cooper it. You'll have the fate of these ten seniors. In your hand some of these younger guys and you know our bullpen and obviously Charlie -- the start today so. It's it's an interesting mix their between old and young and and how they'll. Back to one another whether the shocker well hey win forty games be it post season and CL for the yet. And to top it all off interesting day to play at this particular team especially -- two teams that certainly have some capability to hit with power. And it is conducive to that today the wind howling out at 25 to 35 miles per hour straight out to left field. We've seen this a lot obviously if you're shocker baseball fan used to it the flag of flights. Rip off the pole while awaited news but. You know a lot of times first of all a lot of times these -- two days in -- five to two. And -- nowhere near the offensive fireworks that you expect the other thing that collective right are on or or at least point out. In a game like they like today where the wind seems to be favoring hitters so much. It's imperative that the gators don't out of their comfort zone try to be something that they're not and -- the wind is blowing out hard to laugh. But it's not ball so hard it'll just lot -- every pop up out of the yard and it's gonna turn in the Wrigley Field you know or Coors Field. You've got I've got hit it to get on this part yet gonna get some help the left side of the diamond but if you will buy as war. You know somebody that that. Make -- for example. A home run hitters don't try to be one of try to lift ball out of ballpark you bad habits it's it probably hurt you down line you are what you are. Continued to be that way it'll kind of going to my keys to the game because you know change your approach that they like day just to me is or. Well let's flow into the keys they are presented by -- Hamilton port located at the big corner of Kellogg at 119 street. Now able to report we're better we're proving it -- be the judge the first key is for the Wichita State pitching staff to start with Charlie Lowell strikes strikes and more strikes. With the elements that we've been talking about. It'll be easy enough to score runs and you don't need to compound it by. Pick in the strike zone being careful pitch around guys hitting him walking guys. There is a natural tendency on day like today to be -- to quote unquote be careful with guys because they might cut ball ballpark well. What was your other hapless soul Ron her walker to an in home run. You know. Make them -- it whatever they get make them yet we've that we. Discussed a couple of times during the series with the with the way that they hit anyway believe conditions today. Just throws strikes and take -- chance they get they get.
distinct line drive in this is from Wichita State beat picket line drive the ball hard and don't try to. Important facts on the ball don't treasure up your back children got -- and got. These are you going to be playing unbelievably -- today anyway. If you think line drives of the blue dockers and bloopers that hard line drives normally carried to the outfield outs we're gonna drop in front of point cookie. Also it was a shocker it rather export this to check out the outfield if there's still be. Word about the -- debates don't overhead -- choppered. That it's in the -- going to be around because until it in the -- at him and play -- help. Without having to play three run bomb today.
I did is senior day at the -- shocker seniors being introduced and before we go to -- Stevenson's comments I thought it might take a moment to. -- on at least some of these guys they are being introduced alphabetically solely. Start with will -- as a guy who came here is a junior college transfer last year to your starter who. It turned out they thought they were getting a guy who played second base and actually had always been captured and so the the experiment was a little bit rough but guy who has picked it up both seasons now at the end of the year exactly right he's saying is best for last you. Could be. Argued that he has been a disappointment. But. You know looking at the numbers that he had.
That's all parts he's played him was it is of college and inflated. It was so far there are a lot of inflated numbers from western Oklahoma junior college but he has turned out to be confident player -- he's gotten better defensively. As the season. It's gone and because unbelievable streak going offensively he's really become viable target this team that's tough work Brett.
Basket. A local product from your green who has a fifth year senior and a guy who's really put in his time in the program. Last year became a full time guy because of injuries and had his ups and downs this year started years strictly as a platoon player. -- played so well he's given himself a chance over the last month to play every day and has continued to just be a revelation.
I think you've got like -- you should be. Invited back every single year and make a speech to the team because he's seen at all in his five years here Wichita State the good times bad times. He being a part time player being a full time player. And he's got it out nicely and this year the news I about save and that's the last he's an incredible year on -- backing you want to hear the end because the way he's playing but.
Go to the hard knocks but -- on the roads before it's careers over -- that you really appreciate his senior year more than.
And he is a perfect example of the guy who. If you hang in there you're going we talked about -- you're going to get chances in this program that's what you do looked up and and he has. Sat there without complaining and look for his opportunities and tried to learn as he's gone and then on the opportunities that present themselves this year he's been -- it's hard to stay sharp when news. Proceed that there's no light into the tunnel facility particularly in twelve games grow up playing. The body language starts to snag a little bit their work -- panic goes out they they start to think that accurately -- you know. It happens year after year after year and that's part of the reason why rep would be invited this program come back in and talk to the guys certainly the guys that -- Frontline players that -- in -- Attributing them why during the course of the championship -- run. The next player is kind of unique in the history of this program there have been very few one year senior transparency apparently that I hope Travis that -- was -- especially young man it was in the program in the valley where the coaching staff had seen in the northern Iowa. As it turned out he'd always wanted to play at Wichita State and he's just been a really good fit not only as a player but just his personality is blended well this team made it shocker recently that perception that if you're a player somewhere else you. Not necessarily the caliber of Wichita State standards and and when he came in I think a lot of people thought maybe just yet it apart and be okay or even though he had good numbers northern Iowa. You know the fact that this is looking to us they were northern Iowa Woodson -- apartment that's -- that's not the case the you can really get. Annie's gonna model teammate citizen -- very proud vehemently he's on about his business. You don't often wanna have you don't want your player. But a guy like trapped them breaks all. Tyler Fleming another guy who we've talked about a lot this year he came in as a junior college transfer two years ago was tremendous out of the bullpen then began to have probably. In his arm light years nobody really good at the time the good pitch by -- the end of the season missed all of last year. Has tried to come back in just wasn't the same guy wasn't he wasn't healthy as -- not the same. And so what he did he wants to figure out a way he could help the team so it decides to drop down from the side and he may -- end up being big contributor in the policies there's a lot of players that they'll do whatever it takes. Play and help the team win but. Really what you really do something like that livings doing right now. He epitomizes what you want as a shocker pitchers at the -- is. Fierce competitor. Looks to pitch. Love to be out it'll only answer I think sometimes we -- forget that that in LA county planning and ordinary high today. Record -- his arm started bother so. He paid the ultimate price. Of doing everything in beyond about the few more time at all about winning even when he couldn't plight he was around when he -- forty security was -- Ground ball -- going ground balls during batting practice last year just to do something just to be part of that and to make a contribution and anyway and I know we have gotten to him yet but he's much like slogan hope he they're both. You know look of the left him version of the -- planning everything we set about planning hope we do. You know he had a solid year LA also are you got the final out. Down Stillwater. He policy regionals which eight regional -- You know those aren't the guys and and Kobe guy's name -- Go to our country college transfers out here. And most of the -- got you -- coming here immediately and have that at least some experience -- on their side that they can draw on. And he -- Players cut. Tailored Gilmore is just introduced he has a guy who's a local product went to junior college for two years in and then came back with essentially a walk on -- really hasn't played this year. Like quite a bit at times last year -- Packers look for answers and although his playing time -- still another guys has been a good part of the team not good got to be around -- very supportive of his -- very very bright intelligent. Very cerebral guy you know he's. -- Lastly is pretty close friend Clinton the couple seniors but they'll offer him in the locker bounce stuff off one another day you don't necessarily happen you know 150 that here it is perhaps acknowledgment and it. I think it would feel -- it well now -- You've mentioned Kobe guy -- asserted the flip side of plumbing and hockey came in last year and pitched very little had a couple of different injuries had a couple of good outings toward the end of the year. He had actually been recruited originally as a -- could be a bit week's starter but because of the injuries and all sorts of things these ended up being a relief guy and has really come on at the end of his senior year to be guys that they can count on a little bit out of the bullpen -- outside and getting it you Coke guy he's not exactly what you think he's going to be if you don't have time to cultivate something else turn into something else and they do is strictly went to uncle guy out well then. It's worked out more times than not and it's been nice to see him finally healthy. He's back in that open and will be until seasonal. Logan hope another guy who we talked about a little bit who has great. Two years ago down the stretch that hurt all of last year and after getting off to a slow start this season kind of getting the feel of pitching in game situations again has suddenly. Really become that guy they were looking -- stopper at the end of the -- and remember how far away he was -- is now meaning he was light years away if you guys because it comfortably in is breaking golfer's right. And courses and -- whole team all through turmoil and nobody on my right and it just goes to show you baseball to line up. -- Doing right today. Trying to improve all the time and they'll -- the head down. Don't ever think that you there later this season as a way oh. He's. Any particular game. If everybody's stress that all things being equal he's the first guy out to go to guy -- and they'll have stuff and think what.
Brian Johns. Irrepressible guy that grew up in Wichita dreamed of playing for the shocker is his whole life is living the dream he's been a starter for three years and Andy's been kind of an admitted that because at times he's got his own worst enemy that a talented guy who. Even money has struggled at the -- is played great defense in the outfield as dangerous as a base runner and certainly love shocker baseball and and wants like everything to finish off his career whether a positive end of the season.
Well he's a perfect example of numbers aren't everything he's beloved by the -- his teammates the coaching staff that. He's always trying to do the right thing it doesn't always you know judging by the batting average but -- that's the guy wearing a lot and a lot of cases you can throw the numbers out the window it seems like. He gets big hits when he's in a predictable RBI situation normally comes through and he has never ever ever let his office.
At city place he just another long line of doctor outfield that could really -- get it one better throwing arm we've seen in the last five. At the next scene here is another local guy put a little different. -- in terms of comparing him to Ryan Jones Ryan Jones who has highly recruited coming out of high school coating -- was more of the guys it was just good all around athletes who play a few positions. And figure could be maybe a decent utility guy and he has just worked and worked and gotten better and better and I think. If you excluded. The pitchers say Jordon Cooper from consideration I think he probably does team's MVP this year you know first -- when you're still doing moves like that type of the notes that you're thinking to myself in the first line -- Cody Lafley is self made player. LE a lifetime to 57. Hitter and look at it this year 370. That's this. A cornerstone guy and -- typical Wichita State throwback guy you know late eighties early ninety's the World Series. Scenes. Guys like him. That weren't necessarily five star recruits and everybody's all American and everybody this and that. He's from the time he got here until the time he leaves here a -- couple weeks whenever they need. I'll just turned himself into a shocker baseball player it's really been a joy to watch him swing the --
Clinton McKiver obviously had won the big moments in shocker history of his Grand Slam and Oklahoma State two years ago and it puts to shop restore the super regional. He's had a very solid career here after being a guy that Oklahoma State where it always dreamed of going didn't want -- involved there try to walk on they weren't interested in him. And he has carved out a nice career unfortunately he's been hurt this year. That very good column by Bob blues kind of summed up Clinton very well just a great all around guy a great student and a guy who now that he's healthy again showing that he may be a big contributor a lot of ways before this season's over.
Love a guy like that loving man. Also do everything. Possible to get out on the field. When he got Wallach hit a little bit like Johnny boy every had hamstring injury that why got to figure out -- you something because -- T 340. And I'm not likely -- version yet the president -- here so what does he do. After a year or so ago of a -- imposing -- an album out season. And scenes that I got this thing could help somehow brought me -- yourself it's doctors have coaching staff can. And Cuomo holds out because our lineup today will be making its second straight start with first place. And all that goes without saying the most senior class award nominee. Man of the year on campus here. And that. Grand Slam off the foul ball down Stillwater I'll never forget that long lived in Wichita State that better better place for everything -- in the.
maybe if there's a bottom line on this senior class there's not that one hiring. Your face leader type guy that a great leadership group in terms of the things we just talked about. What about your business every day setting an example for others even when you're not playing your skill into he's still -- part of the team and each one of their own way has set a great example for the younger guys on this yeah.
None of them -- the and question vocal leader but with ten of them with as many different styles than attitudes that they have. Certainly there's something for everybody for all the upperclassmen to look up to these ten guys we're back with Jane Stevenson as we continue to butler pregame show on senior day.

It dead Enders especially would you say that's true about both Charlie lol just building some confidence and -- and whatever other guys may throw a lot of people that they can certainly still continues.

More relaxed QB and and the better everything works you hit Bedingfield better you move better. You're happier and yours your disposition good the joys of playing the game is is shown by if you want.

And welcome back to that stadium for the series finale between Wichita State in Dallas bass -- has the starting line ups presented by delta dental plan of Kansas. First or Dallas Baptist Austin nightly often plays second base that second first baseman Tyler rob us. There molecular Jason -- and -- is clean up and play center field. Travis miners at third base its fifth followed by Austin Elkins. Shortstop batting seventh and -- Duncan McAlpine. Receiving look at batting. Batting ninth these Brian Thompson right fielder they'll face Wichita State's left hander Charlie. But you -- a shocker line up as they come up six seniors in the starting line up today with Cody lastly behind the plate Clinton McKiver at first will Baez at second. Ryan Jones is in center field -- ask -- and left Travis Bennett in right Charlie lol of course a sophomore back in action after about a five week layoff with tightness in his forearm his first pitch of the game. Is low for a ball to Austin night leading an opera Dallas Baptist the patriots 2826. On the year which is not state 37. And eighteen Eagles -- well outside. And it's to a nothing Doug McClure calling the balls and strikes today and the rest of the umpiring -- Bob -- first base. And the queen absurd and again temperature headed for the upper eighties with a very strong wind blowing out to left field that -- as high and outside for -- three. Crowds we keep and I -- Evansville Illinois State Gloria. In the top of the fourth Evansville after Grand Slam that's taken the lead over Illinois State -- before. How. That was sudden here's a pitch just outside for ball four so one of the things that Jane talked about in the pre game. Unfolding in a negative fashion is Charlie -- walks the first man. Charlie pitched two scoreless innings against Missouri State last Sunday -- his first appearance since April the eleventh. And gave up just one hit. One walks struck out four. Lola guide or write it up there 199192. From the left side has a good slider. Probably won't throw the changeup or at least very much that's a -- that still gives him a little bit of that tight feeling in his forearm. So he needs to be very good with the two pitches and there's a strike if -- needs to Tyler Robinson fastball at 89. -- 348. In the series after collecting two hits last night he's a 380 for the year six home runs 45 runs batted in. Ball from the stretch steal one and up balls fouled the right out of play and it's nothing into. Knight director at first not your typical leadoff guy as far as potential base stealer he is just one of two on the year. Despite having an outstanding on base percentage of 425. Leading base stealer on this team has five. You guys -- miners. They'll run month. 02 to Tyler Robinson the picture outside for ball. The shot resume their old school thirties through fifties -- uniforms the off white home uniforms black stripe down the leg the high socks. And Dallas -- its third set -- uniforms and very sharp looking set with red jerseys and white pinstripe pants and -- around on and -- speed breaking ball. Robinson running developed it was in the strike zone as he asked home plate umpire Doug with cooler but he chased it for strike three. I got back door something. Heart breaking ball it. Haven't emergency swing by -- do we get a get punched outer at least on it was in the line cut debt at the very last instant. Pulled triggered threats spoiling things that Jason present and he takes a strike fastball at ninety ride on the inside edge. A left on left match up with the next two hitters for Charlie lol two very good ones and Jason present and Ryan -- the two best all around hitters in the lineup but nevertheless left handed swingers. Early from the -- Julio one. Our speed breaking ball and -- for a called strike if so and -- right above the knees then after walking the leadoff man Charlie -- starting to find some sharpness. Pretty quick to the plate and you. That's the fact he's left handed over the base Steelers have much luck at all. So gently dry code to it just low that good 02 pitch one ball and two strikes to present his hitting 361. Eleven home runs 57 runs batted in these three for seven against shocker pitching. Including the solo home run on -- on Thursday night that broke up. At long scoreless string by Jordan Coopers and moved to first night back standing up. -- glances -- Frankfurt based it on global who's a part first two -- is if not years so they'll plants takes his spot. It's not. Would have noticed sooner or later that was -- he's very very easy you're recognized move over and there under back. One into an adjacent present were in the top of the first. The sun has got to played hide and seek from the clouds right now mostly sunny here at the ballpark. Warm muggy afternoon. -- pitch struck you now get breaking ball going off the outside Hartford and Bridgeport couldn't catch up and lawless bunch got to narrow. Lol it -- breaking ball boy is that the key for him especially meet face those -- that is short break here. It somewhere to me between curveball -- got qualities of both. And when it's on properly to lefties. They literally go and let -- run that fastball in on -- breakers out that way for it. Here is Ryan you know as the center fielder and cleanup man that are left handed hitter and -- first night dives back to the bag. Venus just 248 in the series that's well below his 400 average on the year but the Tutsis had driven in three runs including a two run single in last night's ballgame. Apple's pitch to him is a little bit low for ball on. Their lead in Austin nightcap as -- labels -- it will lose -- time over there but. It currently does not believe much more than me. It -- the lead as a little better. It is pretty conservative but it's 10 just missed inside very close pitches to and now. One thing that I mean we haven't seen enough to tell for sure but it appears that some of these better hitters like present and Venus whistling from the left side in this Dallas Baptist lineup. It hit the ball with -- authority the other way and so you wanna -- them inside today let them pull the ball. Here's a foul off the into the battle were behind third it's two and one -- animate it along those lines right handed hitters up the work did it to you can't just let him. I got try to hook balls up the left field. -- So lol after walking the leadoff man has a chance to get out of that year with two strikeouts and 22 count on -- Venus. And the pitch outing but the ball bounces away from lastly they can't find it. And so once again that's the second time this week I couldn't remember exactly what had happened before but somebody has struck out it was -- game on Thursday night where he struck out here. And the runner reached on a wild pitch. -- strikes out the side. Travis Myers will hit with you on throughout. I guess. It's part is you might see a little bit of history. Or -- will strike -- war in Munich you know often see that but that's still play here. Miners 248 in the series and he has been a little prone to the strikeout he punched out three times last night at 347 hitter from the right side takes a strike on the outside corner. The fastball away by Charlie lol. Change to its early on its limit. That is -- after throwing handfuls war you know struck out technically the final out of the inning. 01 fastball on the outside corner for another call strike that -- 91 miners is not happy at all with plate umpire Doug McClure felt like both of those were a little outside that would even more than the first one. 0122. Outs two on Lowell has struck out three of the inning but one of them reached. And the pitch outside of that went. This question just came up on the brick -- to show last night about striking out four in an inning and it has happened twice that we can recall in Wichita State history Jamie blue -- and then Logan -- just two years ago. Once you. -- just got a piece of it. Breaking ball in on his hands he tried to stay back in just flicked it off the handle to the screen to the right of home plate. One ball two strikes Charlie -- should be out of the -- It needs to get one more strike.
Here's the stretch. Check of the routers and the pitch. -- I think yes -- anyone around and Charlie Lowell strikes out war in that inning and walked the leadoff man and came back to strike out. War in a row although one of them reached on a wild pitch after a half billion dollars that does not think. Wichita State coming to -- in this game break is brought to you by the butler restoration plumbing gripping and remodeling.

Qualifier Ryan Jones sinner and Cody lastly we'll -- there yet. Cleanup spot belongs to -- record VH. -- as -- fifth spot today you play left field in right field hitting sixth Travis minute. And Clinton making her first date -- there I'm sure so -- a shocker to be biased your own lastly springer Pat Buchanan. -- moral crimes they'll be facing lefty Aaron Gilbert. Andy's got a reporter and Gilbert and other lefty is not a particularly hard thrower. I allowed to move it around and mix it up try to keep the ball down he's pitched pretty well lately seven innings against Arkansas Pine Bluff last Saturday just one run on four hits with one walk and three strikeouts. Up more ground balls fly balls that mean to that would certainly be good recipe for him on daylight today we don't throw particularly heartening -- dealing out the left.
Will buy as leads off the shocker semantics a fastball for strike up in the zone tried to hold up didn't go around appeared the -- called a strike by Doug McClure. -- as three hits in last night's game and his 448 in the series he has raised his average to 291 for the season. X that would just a little bit upstairs a ball to strike two fastballs at 84 and 85 from Gilbert. I has got the -- is off to a great start last night with a line drive double into left center and the shocker scored three in the first. It's that one high in the air shallow left winds could carry it to left fielder an easy play for present for the first out of our game for the shoppers.
Carolyn lower stock last Japanese strikes out war in one inning. You -- the big leagues either the ball here Glover something's going to Cooperstown. Does that -- very often thought about rarity and in baseball hitting for the cycle and no hitters perfect game but 4 point jocks and morning --
One out here is Brian Jones. Ryan three for eight in the series he takes her ball for a strike Jones last night two for four and hit the ball pretty well every time up news. At the course the Big Three run homer that gave the shocker is the lead back in the sixth after the game had been tied. 01.
Balls hammered toward the right center right field corner you know half the warning track Jones around. Headed for a second quick return by tops in the right fielder had to stand up double to Ryan Jones.
that's cool it Gilbert guide this week by Ryan Jones middle end and Jones. As good nothing Anthony's quick enough.
Can react to an 84 Meyer fastball in on -- he gets jerked it in right field even though the winds blowing the left he would. Effective enough -- Thompson to prevent. You base hit with one out here for. Ryan Jones after a fourteen for 81 slop over twenty games six for his last fourteen for 29 this week. -- last week. Two hits last night before runs batted in of the two hits were a two run homer and a two run double. He's hitting. 370 in his senior season with ten home runs and 42 runs batted in the first pitch to him is a called strike up off speed pitch to nothing in one. He listening after the game for the delivery of the game brought you by Wesley birth care center. Wesley delivers more babies than any other hospital in a thirteen state region. It's to lastly hit right at the middle the second baseman gonna have a played -- scoops it up flips over to first for the out as Ryan Jones goes to third with two down. Soccer haters in here.
Down a little bit. Even the fastballs only going to be in the mid eighties. And if they get more than one that will probably be making news of his changeup and a curve -- something you have to keep pace -- stayed back on. Classic and it -- himself right there. Back that it off speed hits that he didn't quite get the barrel on. It's gonna have to be patient with skill breath and make him as we mentioned a lot of time with soft -- they can bring it up make him elevate --
Secondary it. Preston springer up from the left side he takes a strike at the -- best quality for nothing in one Preston. One for four and each game in the series so far last night although it was one for four hit two balls really really hearted double to right center field and a line drive that the first baseman caught just about took his hand off. No one. Swing at him as he really tidy mop with that Lynn springer swinging at pitch that was probably not quite a strike and it's going to. Brian Jones a one out double but there now to -- with Jones at cleared the ball game scoreless in the bottom of the first inning. Preston -- the shocker RBI leader with 58 trying to get Jones home with two outs. Oh too high and inside of the fastball one ball and two strikes. Quite like last night's starter he'll read a little more conventionally. It's herky jerky this. Have a normal -- it comes straight over the top. Fast ball curve ball change. Not as much deception does that look like. 12. And they struck him out of our speed breaking ball it's in the dirt so have to throw him out at first and Cheney makes throw to retire the side so Preston springer who struck a little bit of off speed stuff lately. Goes down swinging to end the inning so each team got a runner in the first each team leaves a man stranded it's nothing nothing. After won this game break -- by -- benefit plans.

Former shocker baseball player Adam McCullough has been a great supporter of the program and all sports at Wichita state of course he provided the jerseys the other night for the breast cancer awareness night jerseys auction brought in about 8000 dollars for breast cancer research. Great to have the butler as one of our shocker sponsors. Enemy go to the top of the second inning with Austin Elkins leading -- for Dallas Baptist Charlie lol into the lines first pitch is a strike on the outside corner. Charlie walk the first man up on four pitches in the ballgame then struck out four in a row one of those hitters reaching when he swung at a wild pitch that got away from the catcher. At fastball outside it's 11 Elkins batting from the right side for the first time in the series he has a switch hitter who has seen nothing but right handers prior Q today. 348 from the left side of the plate in the series and swings and misses there for strike two fastball at ninety down around -- Early Lola than rather high pitch count in the first so. Like to have a quick inning here. Swing and -- threw the fastball by about for the saudis punched out five in a row. And one out of the Symantec guys down for certificates that's okay it's only twelve operating.
Or expecting the pitch -- to be fifty to sixty maximum for -- so. First inning he was over twenty pitches.
That are Duncan McAlpine the DH pitch to him is popped up down the left field line it's in foul territory we'll drift out of play. They garlic -- they ask you both gave it a run and it was up there long enough even though they had to go along way they've both were in the neighborhood but the ball landed in the visiting team bullpen. McAlpine got his first started the series last night in fact his first start in about a week. And went one for four at that one was a two run homer. -- was the -- that tied the game in the sixth inning last night eased a little bit all or nothing guy. Breaking ball stays high one and one to 9813. Homers 51 runs batted in but the nothing party is. Much else. If you want that. It blocks a fair amount they'll Jack Clark and that's all. There was a knee buckling breaking ball -- Charlie Lowell and wanted to as outlined ticket for a strike. Well Easter on their breaking ball these left handers. Been a struggle today. Here's his 12. Hole behind him flipped and did make his backers shoulder. That was one that just completely got away certainly there was no purpose intended there with a one to Canada ball just sailed behind the left handed hitter and put -- in the back. Here McAlpine more than anything that was yet here. That far ahead of a giant account lefty lefty. Charlie little stuff. The yield end up at first base somewhat of accomplishment and it's supposed to be up in the Senate set up next breaking ball that. Unfortunate for all that he puts McAlpine on. Brings it Chris Cheney right handed hitting catcher for the patriots won for six in the series after hitless night last night he swings and misses for strike -- fastball down. Any had hit an eight straight hitting a little over 400 prior to last night it was over three -- a couple of strikeouts. His season average 3031. Home run he's driven in twenty. Wolf from the stretch delivers and it's outside a ball to strike.
At least so far it's it looks like Apple's gonna have to make mistakes and off speed stuff up in the strike down because the fastballs that the patriots even -- Leads me to believe securely tied ball pretty well -- 89 -- that's fine but. It's sneaky quickness that is getting a lot of these swings and misses the there's one lifted in the air to right center field when you push it back towards center and Ryan Jones makes the catch just about medium depth. At all kind of slicing a little initially just got knocked down and pushed right actor Ryan Jones in center. It's been a little bit today. On short -- because it's nice big guy any link that out there but the all cat jumps out of his hand and he hides it well. And there's a little bit of snapping action with. With the release point out front so anything -- up there and 8892. Looks much quicker than that because together to identify.
Ryan Thompson takes one just low for a ball Thompson's that a guy has been a part time starter gets left handed pitching on the here. Right handed hitter is hitting to sixteen in 88 at bats this is his twentieth start. One home -- driven in fifteen in the pitch to him. Just mess down and and look like pretty good pitch and it's two and -- Two out a runner at first in the top of the second -- Baptist there's no score in the game. Currently lol that's allowed two runners want and each inning on a walk and a hit batter. All the third date gore has it you go down to second for the easy course and that's the other. So in the second for Dallas Baptist -- friends -- yes they left a man on after one and a half nothing nothing here -- stadium in this game break brought to you by Cindy on outsourcing.

The second inning those stores this when the only hit so far one out double by Wichita State's Ryan Jones in the first inning the soccer's we'll send up -- basket Travis that it. And Clinton McKiver in the second three of their six starting seniors today. To right handed hitters around the lefties in the person of Travis that it. Bread basket GeForce eight in the series hit a two run homer last night it was robbed of another home run when Jason present and went up and over the fence -- his -- to pull one back first pitch to Brett. On speed breaking ball in their for a called strike. And winging off speed at 69 from the left hander Aaron Gilbert. Here's the 01. -- high one ball one strike. Jane mentioned a little difference in style and delivery between Gilchrist and Ryan Allard left hander faced the shocker last night the 11. Breaking ball -- down to that one also Gilbert doesn't throw quite as hard. He's been right in 8485. And -- last night 87 occasionally a little harder. Two balls one strike and the pitch as he swings and foul tips and into the catcher's glove and it's two and two. Can tell the first time through the -- backers are working a little on picking up the timing on Gilbert. Ask you have to count even -- here in the second. And that suited delivered. -- fastball away you do it -- 87 Escude. Realized it was a strike too late almost a little half start of his swearing and let it go -- him during this. Theory about it's backwards. And that basically. Off early -- He got back back -- all I think -- and factories running as fast believe something's off but. Over at the -- point fastball. -- Bennett trying to plot any foul that went off his leg in the batter's box then rolled into their territory that'll be strike one Travis. That it started to Thursday's game against a right hander Williamson who went one for three with a run batted in he's hitting 336 on the year. Two home runs 44 runs batted in. Has played almost not at all against lefthanded pitching but did it. Have a they -- a couple of base -- to the start against the lefthander earlier this week couple blocks. 01. Breaking ball outside. And the bottom of the fourth it is now Evansville seven. Illinois State for. 11. Sliced fouled left side -- I was just thinking. Given the typical crowded Evansville it's too bad because if Nate Smith. It had this crowd there when he gets there Chris let him hit in the moments of his career out of there. At 3300. The one to. Now the back and he really got -- so far Gilbert is doing a nice job of moving it around work and in a couple of times that the left handers springer and -- he's really. Gotten up and in their kitchen. Still one -- Travis. Hubris delivers. And the style of the fastball to -- to. -- Not only with high socks with the really old school horizontal striped socks red stripes around navy blue socks then it. A chopper to the right side second baseman charging and the first for the out. Good job by night to charge that ball aggressively was not hit very hard made it into an easy play.
So far guilt written this mix -- things up nicely kept -- it's off balance hasn't all been dating patterns. Normally those. Off don't let me it will throw you want fastball -- be trying to get ahead navy. Or even matter throw late try to get guessing -- it's really all kind jump in the meantime -- particular pattern so far.
Clinton -- try to Jack the one around on an 85 mile an hour fastball it's 01. -- got to start last night went two for four with a pair of singles races averaged 256 for the year. 01 that -- time ought to strike. The keeper because of those hamstring problems -- ended up only getting ninety bats this year 23 hits for that to 56 average two home runs. Nineteen runs batted in most of those fireworks very early foul tip theory was -- in front. And it's one and two. Two out nobody on -- breath although it only has two and three record as the best ERA ebony at the Dallas Baptist starters by over runs per game four point 37. Although he doesn't throw that party has struck out 52. In 57 and two thirds innings over halftime accountable yet here. Will lane and other guys may allot us start. ERA over six missed outside of that one it's even it to into. -- Seem to be logical choice only closed out a couple of games actually a couple of saves but it's the innings -- pretty close to one another. -- McKiver struck him out of a fastball. So Gilbert doing a nice -- the choppers down in order in the second on a windy day when he have to make good pitches -- and Gilbert both doing it it's nothing nothing after two. And this game break brought you by the butler restoration robbing raping and remodeling.

The third Charlie Lowell has -- 36. Pitches so at that pace this could potentially be his last inning if he doesn't go quicker now as second inning little better than his first somewhere around fifteen so. If he were it to get through this inning with -- about that than we might see him for one more -- They're gonna be careful what they -- Canon. -- Campbell for a little bit feel how I feel you know -- incident to hear his seat back down again if people. Maybe lobby for another inning or two should he get that if you're sixties still feels okay and is now like guys on base that latency. There's a strike on the outside colored Austin Knightley get off in the third. Knight walked on four pitches in the first. The 01. Joe -- takes outside. Night was his first walk of the series with that walked the first time up after coming into the week 36 in the nation and walks him his 42 walk of the year. 11. Good breaking ball in their for a called strike -- 12.
Plenty of jockeying for position every other team in the Missouri Valley Conference that is in the conference to get to the scores here -- a little bit. Fastball high students who decides the Evansville Illinois State game.
There are three potential ties for positions. By the end of the day we have the tiebreaker information.
King blog unable looking Charlie lol. That is sixth strike out and that's the first one looking the -- the -- Top of the ninth in all off. New Orleans eleven creek to. Looks like great that two out of three from New Orleans before coming Wichita. Inside the conference -- war. Bradley three bottom of the sixth in -- Curve ball low for ball to Tyler -- who struck out his first time up. Getting underway in Springfield Missouri southern Illinois one miseries the thing about the second -- the there is a high drive to center that Wynn's gonna bring it back to Ryan Johnson Ryan -- makes the catch McCleon medium depth. For the second half.
Of course of good for Charlie here in the third to up -- down it. Seven pitches and you -- chiefs and Packers fan here with the recipient. Two outs and as we told you Evansville eight Illinois State for. Now playing the top of the fifth the -- stadium in Evansville.
Jason present a strikeout victim his first time takes a curve ball inside for ball one prison and struck out chasing a breaking ball away too. Get the second out in the first inning Lowell struck out four in the first Ryan Venus reached on a wild pitch fastball inside moved him back it's -- You remember back when Charlie was not only healthy but struggling a little bit earlier in the season this is wearing -- the trouble. -- and the lefties. That they wouldn't get them on it outlook quick enough. -- bear witness witness low three you know. But since that or roberts' game Charlie's been much much better to all -- the hitting.
30. There's a strike call the inside corner gets it back to three and one and I think a lot of that is due to. Overthrowing early this season and being a lot more relaxed and nice and easy now work with everything flows together when you're not fighting yourself. 31 just a little bit down and -- there were two pitches in that sequence that we're awfully close that he didn't get and so that's his second walk. Including now last. But like that this front -- So -- has walked two and hit a better plus another man reached on a striking out that he has struck out six. Bryant -- us a strikeout victim his first time in from the left side. Lol from the stretch Andy has tried to check water around editor of the curve ball and it's nothing in one. Out sharply breaking curve ball is right there. Normally left and it threw a curve ball at the big looper got time to identify it. Yeah upgrade and it's. -- Or not it -- something special. Big swing plane is on another hook it its own two and Venus is a very very good hitter and he is just struggling like crazy with. -- animals breaking ball. No balls two strikes are -- first two out of the top of the third no scorer in this ballgame. Already. And delivers another curve ball grabbed his left side just out of the reach of make -- there's the first yet we're Dallas Baptist as it rolls softly in the left field for a single. Island started at a game and ended up over the plate starts over the plate obviously. The different result as the -- zone are talking about. It Charlie's gonna get hurt -- If he hangs his breaking dollars changeup that's when Dallas Baptist in the equalize things a little bit but. For the most part Charlie can work and -- had and been able to put the hitters away so very very quality stuff the here's Travis miners -- two on and two out minors a strikeout victim in the first inning right handed hitter in the picture and slice now to the right side out of play. And it's all in one. Well if you believe what that the Stevenson -- in the had to say this should be it for Charlie he has -- it's number 52 right now though let's see now. Closely they stick to that. Assuming Charlie gets out the inning here with an example it. 01 outside threw ball 11. And I was just going to mention that being the case there's. Nobody warming up right now though looked like Tyler -- just got up off the bullpen bench and he is the first guy up today.
11 the miners.
Bulls pitch chopper toward third Lauro fields and -- to step on the back for the course to be having another good pitch made when he needed it -- Charlie wolf. And it gets out of the inning with no runs on one hit and leads to after two and a half shocker is nothing Dallas Baptist nothing this game break from -- and benefit plans. Hi this shocker based.

Bottom of the third inning on a we're really windy day here next stadium no scoring at -- gore -- Tyler Grimes both come up for the first time in the game for Wichita State and then we'll bios will start the second time. Through the order. Tyler Fleming started to play some catch and get -- the shocker bullpen we'll see if Charlie -- is done for the day's gone past fifty pitches in three shutout innings and has pitched very well for the shocker. But it was going to try to keep his pitch count 250 to sixty so that may have been hit I can't get if -- force though. Don't necessarily want them running him out there for just one extreme -- Three scoreless out of him maybe this is at times shutting down. -- stands in from the right side the first pitch to him -- the right for strike one -- getting his first appearance. Of this series against Dallas Baptist. His most recent appearances were two starts against Missouri stating what -- little walk.
The freshman hitting his 65 with two home runs in ten runs batted in. The along. Our speed pitch high and it's one and one. They -- really debate be in this lineup today with six senior starters on senior day. The 11. Swaying and -- try to stay back on the off speed pitch but he was still out in front of that swing and it's one and two. It's hard to make yourself stayed back enough on Gilbert if you haven't seen him because he really gears again. -- a few in the upper sixties. Once you. And -- off speed pitch high that time and it's tuned to we'll see how the shocker suggested -- the second time through the order because that's good swings looks like he's. Kind of measured everything and it has been thrown up their pretty well. Shoot you. Off the hands ballot to the right that Tommy just got jammed. Bible and when you -- 68. Strikes. So it makes. Guys seen quicker than they really are here -- stuff for strikes 83 war and on the knuckles. Comforted here. Another -- to borrow. And it's -- to third base hit a pretty good job at timing of the hit it right at -- the third baseman and his throw to first in time. Miners has made a lot of good places forest picking balls he threw the ball in the dirt that got away from the first baseman last night and most of the throws he's made have threatened to dive down in the -- that was just above the turf for the first -- speculative kind of play. Physical shares on the infield started the season until now their final game season miners was a shortstop to begin. Not a Grimes takes a fastball high for ball one and -- over their first base started the season at third but he -- rash of errors -- that prompted. A lot of movement miners went from shortstop actually the outfield four point there here's a soft liner -- shortstop for the second out. -- didn't really scorched a ball that hit it pretty solidly with a sinking -- liner in the shortstop Elkins was just able to make one step to his right kind of get down on his knees and slide in front of it to make a backhanded catch. Well with two outs now on the -- Tyler -- warming which because they know catchers down there has gone down yet so he's not ready. And while Baez should happen make third out fairly quickly might have run Charlotte will back out there for at least -- to yours is. It's like living very area. I espouse when in the dirt for strike one will look soft fly ball to left his first time up sold for one on the day.
Three hits last night tied his career best at Wichita State.
He's been a guy they've always been hot over his two seasons of kind of get his two for three with a walk two for four type the games he hasn't been a guy that's. In real streaky in terms of the bunch offers a -- three or four hit game. Excellent inside on --
Two out bases empty. Here and -- 11 pitch Baez wants foul. He has been real consistent. His last 141516. Games those guys batting average all at -- 91 coming into this game. On base percentages crept over the 400 mark.
Not a guy that's gonna give you lot of extra base -- you know we talked about it Gotti junior college statistics but. He has been serviceable especially late any of these two seasons here with you tell us that. One to check swing double hit the bat handle -- into the first base dugout. Over those last. Fourteen games fourteen starts he's hitting 367. Plus with thirteen walks that's an on base percentage and exactly 500.
One ball two strikes two out. No score in the third inning of this. And the 12 way outside two balls in two strikes. These stats for or lefty Aaron -- breaths say that he's. Been known to be while we haven't seen itself apartment about warning out walks per nine innings in the season numbers but he threw lineup. Utility just got a piece of it stays at 22 and biases -- had to battle in this at bat but he has fouled off 232 strike pitches just barely getting a piece of him each time to hang in there. Over at this -- in my. It's solidly last week in against Arkansas Pine Bluff scattered four hits in seven innings only walked 10. He's been -- group lately. -- too high no strike three call. That McLaren said kind of expanding in diminishing strikes and Baez down looking for the third out -- the shocker is down and order in the third and Gilbert has retired nine out of hand through the first three innings. It is nothing nothing Charlie laws heading back to the mound for the shocker so we'll come back after this game break from Cindy on outsourcing.

Top of the floor then Charlie ball back to the mound for Wichita State and the same mention. You wouldn't think they'd just running back out there for one more hitter but we'll see -- 54 pitchers they originally wanted to keep it between fifty and sixty that he is thrown well. Apparently stealing -- so we'll see how much more they let him go Duncan McAlpine the second hitters in this inning and left handed. So maybe they're trying to -- through him I don't know but.
Getting lefty lefty right it's in your pitch count may be that. Method in his madness.
Austin Elkins leaves it up takes outside for a ball -- struck out his first time up one of six strikeouts recorded for Charlie wolf through three innings. 10. Fastball high to a nothing and if he starts falling behind it throws very many pitches then. That's certainly will hasten his departure.
The 20 pitch. That's fastball outside it's three -- now. Little has walked to -- hit a -- 30. That's right here for a strike fastball outer half -- 87 it's three and one. Falcons three for nine in the series at 349 hitter with -- eight home runs on a year in the 31 to him. On the inside corner for a called strike to -- on. It's -- the bat away but that's certainly look from here -- pretty good pitch it out but he can't seem like in the air. Through his first two plate appearances inner third Charlie went in on amen if it -- the plate but. -- is that -- in there news surprises me. 32. So -- now. Gross profit breaking ball right down under his hands on the inside corner. And he strikes out Elkins for the second time he has punched out seven in three and a third.
Charlie lol after not having pitched for really. Close to six weeks he may get started Evansville -- only face to hitters before he came out. And and he is. To return performances been amazingly sharp breaking ball low one ball -- strikes to -- McAlpine was hit by a pitch his first time up after. Falling in the hole one and two. Lol now in five and a third innings coming back has struck out eleven breaking ball down and -- it's two and now.
Stevenson's pacing in front shocker dug out. I would guess this is it either way any -- and again.
Charlie Lowell. Had McAlpine one and two in the second inning. And tried to moving off the plate hitting actually kind of threw away behind him barely -- in that time. Tried to commit again and he drilled it right in the middle of the back. So -- hit batter with one out gene Stephenson to the mound. And looks like Charlie -- will be done but all in all a really really good for -- very encouraging. Terms of his ability to help.

State to make kids eighth appearance of the year we talked about him in the senior day present children weeks. Coming back from offseason surgery that cost him all of last year and then after coming back. Still experienced pain -- throwing -- his old motion so he has been dropping down from the side. And in his seven appearances. No decisions -- saves but he has lowered ZR rated 3.5 two for seven and two thirds innings he's given up eleven hits but only three walks. With two strikeouts. And he's not gonna be a big strikeout guy with his velocity but that. Drop down delivery should get the ball hit on the ground a lot that's been key for him so for next you guys -- face be right handed hitters. Chris Cheney gets it on the ground through the hole in the left field for a base hit. McAlpine will stop that second first and second for the patriots with one out here in the fourth and that's the third time in the ballgame now that. Dallas Baptist has had two men on in an inning. Second hit for the patriots the batter Ryan Thompson. We'll -- yet Thompson handles Fleming he's a right handed hitter who started because of the left -- most of the time only plays against left handed pitching. It's and to a lot of double plays only media bats that six times he has. Bounced into a double life. I would be just what the doctor ordered here for -- Fleming and his first pitch to Thompson good breaking ball in their for a called strike.
Thompson both for one as a pinch hitter in Thursday's game so this is his second appearance at the series he grounded into a force play started by nick -- third his first time up.
Turn to second by Fleming looks throughout her back to second.
McAlpine the runner at second not a particularly fast base runner. Any at first runs pretty well for capturing -- four stolen bases. The pitch. Big breaking Ball State high ball to strike.
Tyler Fleming's most recent outing was his longest. In his comeback efforts and inning and two thirds scoreless ball against Oral Roberts on Tuesday a lot of hits and a walk. Also pitched a scoreless inning a couple of weekends ago at -- There's little flare to shallow right charging is better but it's gonna drop in front of him for a base hit they're gonna hold the lead runner at third. And the bases are loaded with one out. Exactly a thing of beauty for Dallas Baptist but patriots will -- ground ball by -- the left. Layer by Thompson right now you turn the order over. -- night at their left hand side bases loaded. Scoreless game now Dallas Baptist -- that signal.
I don't have an issue of holding their rhetoric there but he kind of worked out badly for them they had made the decision only about the Baltic kind of a funny little -- on -- that they're made it very difficult for him to pick the ball cleanly and be in position to throw. So the bases loaded one out Austin idol -- a strike out looking against Charlie -- the swing around and that from the left side against the right hander Tyler Fleming. -- got set to work night called time and stepped out of the box. And now both we'll get back in position.
Bombing from the stretch a third to first nobody's.
the -- picked by a mile at first base. Brian Thompson goes up from here than their commanders to add and -- well. Tyler Fleming was gonna go the full windup and then thought better of it it went from the strip to mention time.
Was called home plate that's why go threat to your right hand pitcher Wichita State with the bases loaded and at that they're first. Well no force anymore but there to about second and third -- account yet to Austin night. And Fleming's pitch fastball high Pro Bowl on.
And just another way that -- Fleming competes and finds ways to help himself help the team.
Here's the 10. Really took something off got to strike on the inside corner it's one and one got to keep the ball down to a guy like Austin night you don't want him. To bring you here with two outs with the big boys coming up behind.
One ball on strike plumbing back to work. Fastball in there and it's load inside for ball to.
side armor is changes mention. Loses something the left handed hitters because it's easier to see the ball -- if you're gonna run at any got to really get it in their tight on him. 21. And a little sister right back to -- Fleming the toss to first he gets out of it. Right off the end of the -- little -- right back to -- daddy leaves. To read on after having the bases loaded with one out no runs two hits no errors. And two left for Dallas Baptist in the fourth after three and a half shocker is nothing the patriots not playing this game break brought to you by the butler restoration plumbing and roofing --

This game here next -- still scoreless as Wichita State comes up in the bottom of the fourth -- have had only one base -- against Aaron Gilbert then -- be coming up deleted off his Ryan Johnson doubled his first time up. We'll started off all of -- lastly and Preston springer. That game in Evansville is now in the bottom of the sixth it is still eight to four Evansville leading Illinois State. And Indiana State Bradley is tied it up aggregate tied up rob Solomon a home run for Bradley to tie -- 44 in the bottom of the day. -- three Missouri State nothing for the bears finishing up the regular season like lambs. That's you coming there looks like. -- think all three games. Ryan Jones takes a strike from -- nothing -- one Jones lined a double down into the right field corner his first time -- that's been the only shocker base -- one of only a couple of balls that -- hit hard so --
01. Breaking ball stayed inside a ball distracted Jones. He'll wait to see that wildness from. Aaron Gilbert had -- at 29 blocks in his first 5073. This season but he then. Sharp as a -- today rarely behind certainly has not gone to as far as a three ball count on any hitter. 11 big slow curve ball and Jones played at -- restrictive.
Grind is unable to stay back that time and and tried to slow down his swing in mid stride that just never works -- I'll pick -- big wave curve balls twenty miles an hour slower than your fastball off. Successful. But you can that are enemies like he has.
The one to. Way outside bounce that breaking ball to and to. You know this is a guy that Travis why cup his pitching coach really has depreciated Travis through a little harder than that which -- state -- still it. A guy who seems to get it so obviously taken -- is teaching him. As it an idea how to go about things that there are lots of villas and everything. Due to. Fastball outside three and two. So just as I said -- he goes to a three ball count on Ryan Jones the first time he's -- that deep into account so far today. Three good hitters coming up in Jones lastly and springer's the Shire shoppers try to get on the board first in this would. 32. Low for ball floor Ryan Jones draws the leadoff walk so there is wild goose chase was speculated about although he started out wanting to then missed the three in a row now partly while that. As well a little bit down on 32. And up until right then when he needed sneak one in the strikes and he was able to but. Soccer's get the lead off man on their for the first time. Cody labs -- friend. -- Audio for one he was out in front of the pitches first time up and bounce it up the middle of the second baseman. Two for four last night he's not 249 in the series actually two for five last night there's a ball foul outside third. -- just a little bit out in front of that one. And because of that raked it now by about six feet outside the bag their base.
Steps out takes a look down to gene Stephenson with Jones at first he's curious things on here Ryan Jones excellent base -- sixteen of seventeen on the year.
Greek crowd on hand today want to mention that or not really -- promises fan appreciation day but. -- the weather has something to do with that the hats off to the crowd. Violence outside fastball one and one.
the big differences I noticed the for the game is there are more people in the permanent seats behind home plate and in that area. That as the game got under way more and more starting did. Filter into the upper deck on the first base side -- great crowd on the hill today I would think we're in the vicinity of 4000 or more like her. One ball one strike. And moved to first and it.
With a slight step. They called a balk at the nearest home plate umpire called -- now. Well first base umpire. Build plants growing up. And the old slight -- there was one of my best friends back in the day you don't have a great move and you -- let -- go slides up a lot. You'd pick it up and -- right back down and -- over first days because. The reason behind slide step to hold weight is obviously trying to be quick to the plate and eliminate the running games a lot times when it based routers out there and sees. The slight step. That triggers in his brain will go on hole because he wants to be quick to -- with a slight -- the first is very effective if you can do it. Without blocking now. Whether he crossed the 45 degree angle toward home plate I don't know it was -- some degree questionable as far as the diagonal line you can cross. Imaginary or otherwise but. If you step to Florida home plate that is something home plate umpire can detect it and Doug McClure was sure that. That was deceiving the runner to the end.
Agree Dallas -- head coach Stan -- became had argued a little was a real vociferous argument that he wanted a good explanation before he was willing to accept it. 11 the count decoding lastly there -- its Zack and Cody bounces that foul outside third again out in front of an off speed pitch and it's no surprise that. Gill -- picked off six runners this year. Well it's -- a surprise now after seeing now that he leads the -- the leads -- team and -- statistics. And Jim Thomas shocker first base coach was definitely asking if it was not a block it certainly looked like -- to him over there the one to lastly almost hitting with a fastball inside -- two and two. All of its former. If fielders and base runners they left him and let's --
Jones at second nobody out the best opportunity to shocker -- head Jones reached second with one out in the first on his double. In the bottom of the fourth and there is no score. -- Q the last least rocky mountain high fastball and you could tell by Cody swing a pitch was up the by the shoulders. And there's one out in the inning. Now I will say. For Cody lastly you watch him and batting practice he can get his arms and hands up -- level on pitches up at the top of the strike zone as well as anybody I've seen in the long time that. Because of that sometimes he will. Chase one that it just a little too much -- He's an excellent high ball hitter Andy squares off walls up and -- the strike zone as well as anybody you'll see. So one out runners still at second here's Preston springer a strikeout victim his first time and the first pitch to him as a breaking ball low and away.
Five strikeouts now for -- breath. In three and a third innings. Those starting pitchers low and -- of dealt well with the win by striking a lot of people up today big curve ball stays high it's too and now. By the way Charlie -- final numbers three and a third innings. And he gave up one hit. No runs walked two hit -- batter hit two batters and struck out seven. Here's the pitch to springer another off speed pitch low. And it's three and nothing to Preston.
Like to see Brett nasty come up there with a couple of guys on on the senior day and how -- east against lefties of course coming off -- a strikeout his last time up there.
30. High for ball four. The two -- in the inning that one was much more of just a real free pass like he overthrew in the Jones walked that was a three -- cannot help look close pitches that time they were all pretty much out of the zone pretty noticeably so first and second for rescue. Who has a strikeout victim looking his first time to this.
Point got to tip your cap your children and mixing his pitches -- head has fallen in any pattern now. Here's the real test though when you're not hard thrower when their guys on base can you trust your stuff and you continue to pitch the way you have when you've been cruising. Or you can out think yourself a little bit and then get in trouble balls and little plate that you don't track stuff.
pitched of askew out in front fouled it off for strike one. Now's about to say. One of the reasons breadbasket is hitting 422. Is that he's probably adjusted as well through the the times -- anybody on the team. Every time I say something like that that he could fails to do so he was still around and around that first.
Is the stretch. Andy 01 fastball high -- month. What he throws whatever was up there 68 it does the street chain and it's no wonder we have scored off this guy yet. 84 mile an hour fastball a sixty mile an hour either changeup for breaking ball. Whatever it is that's. A stark contrast -- MPH it's.
11 the -- bouncer toward the hall to shortstop was up the middle was able to make the play the second for one back the first not a time there. And it'll be first and third with two down. That was a good job by Elkins to even have a chance to maybe turn that double play because he was speaking behind Jones up the middle and retreating to his position that ball pulled him toward global. Now it's up to another senior Travis Bennett. Soccer's. Second baseman -- that it got its third base both kind of today. -- thirds -- with two out -- back first. I'll tell us here in the fourth. Travis -- one with a routine grounder to the second baseman and he really struggled. With -- his first time up that managed to fight off a couple of two strike pitches just barely getting a piece before finally grounding out. You'll with from the stretch first pitch to Bennett and it's -- valley had a pretty good pitch to hit their 84 mile an hour fastball kinda up a little bit.
That's something. Some things last handful of games -- played we have seen you'll hear that fall off it trying to. All walls of the right side. Normally eight. Use all the field kind of guy up there of one hit it up today.
Has a chance to second baseman got. Around the last year and it takes his turn it holds out. And just an easy roller up the middle like Travis Bennett was perfectly placed just out of the reach of the second baseman for an RBI single. And I guess because -- pulled off all those pitches that second baseman Austin night which immediately around toward the right side of the diamond and routine ground all 54 hopper got in this field plates that shot right. One that nothing Wichita State and now Clinton McKiver with writers first and third and two down. -- struck out swinging his first time up going after a high fastball.
He's not gonna make any mistakes he continue to think up the middle. McKiver takes a breaking ball that are on the knees for a called strike yet exactly given in this inning has continued working plan.
It's been an odd pattern all season long for Dallas Baptist in terms of falling behind in games -- 01. And a fastball and their for a strike it's -- to they have only scored first in sixteen. They're 55 ball games this year they're eight Nate when they score first twenty and eighteen of their -- its award for herself hasn't made a whole lot of difference. 02 to McKiver. Wait highway that 11 volunteer strikes.
Clinton do for four last night.
Unsuccessful. -- his first time up last night and had a couple hits in mid game. Looking to come up with -- another big two out hit here soccer's finally breaking the scoring nice in the game leading -- nothing. 12. Check the time delay.
Steel -- going down ever comes are under common gene Stephenson breaks that a whole clients deals around that's tagged out but he also -- double steal. A play that we haven't seen this year and maybe even for a couple of seasons works of reflection of the shoppers lead suited it. Well done in that guy up there with these strikes writers first and third.
The mad scientists strikes again. -- around her two runs one yet. No lawyers and nobody laughed so after for its Wichita State to Dallas Baptist nothing this game break brought to you by -- benefit plans.
Shocker baseball.

And assess shocker baseball league sponsored by American friendly insurance which are -- call legions brand woody or burn hardy. Top of the fifth -- Wichita State to -- stipulate that second round although technically it does not go as a stolen base for -- askew Travis -- out on. Well let out as a pick up any scores on a fielder's choice but it's essentially a a double steal type of play in the shoppers pulled it up to perfection. Leading off for a Dallas Baptist Tyler Robinson takes -- strike on the outside corner from -- slamming -- pitched a scoreless two thirds. In relief of Charlie lol in the fourth. -- to take that went way outside a ball to strike. Robbins has struck out swinging and has flied to center.
See how far Fleming goes but. Probably this inning -- fault of ball -- found on the third baseline it's 12. No more I would think that one time through the order that maybe this one and one more. Flooding making his eighth appearance of the year. And time called as. It's a ball from the bullpen or something got out on the field it was a Dallas Baptist player out there on the warning tractor on it down the 12 pitch. Breaking ball low and outside to them to. -- windy warm muggy day certainly. The warmest feeling -- at checkers have played on this season at home to two pitch.
Wow where was that -- blocked. -- an old lady Flynt.
like -- the outside corner -- Little hot the only way. He wanted to rate it started to -- and so. Three to boot it to the right side -- has kept it off -- shallow right field turns throws to first for the out but what I will -- as it was kind of soft slicing liner and so it had some some funny spin on it when it came up on the -- but he played between -- got his body turn completely around to make the throw something we're seeing with these -- get more and more comfortable playing on artificial surface. They're okay with especially second baseman going into the outfield part of the earth. Outside. These and giving ground into -- get a good pop. In an artificial turf has not been name election a lot of second baseman lately. Bouncer developers baseline it's one and one.
What -- want to prison and who has struck out and walked into plate appearances today. 348. On the weekend.

Lemmings 11 must beat Pitt slapped a second right -- will Baez bubbles it picks back up -- all said he still got it. -- it and look close -- that little Bobble but he stayed with that the ball bounced up -- right back in front of him and bias gets the second out.

These -- away problem in a couple of ground ball province Packers and that would dangers guys that it. -- ground balls the second -- Is Ryan Enos who had the only hit off surely lol the singled in the opposite field left side of the plate in the thirties one for -- when he rolls toward first but it's gonna roll foul for strike one.

A line shot five Baez. And it appeared to hit -- breadth. In the right leg he seems to be holding the area down around his right -- or in the the -- just above the right knee on the inner part of the thigh. He managed to roll over. And throw from his back bounced one in there he barely got the runner up Baez was going to beat it out he tried to step around attack by the first baseman Roberts that he was out. And the ball is hit so sharply the first reaction by the other runners of course is to freeze. And once they did even though. The ball was his kind of bounce softly over there to first base there was a chance for McKiver then try to react and go home so there two out. Two on. The trainer out right away to check on.

Picture for Dallas Baptist is junior right hander -- Stafford 511192. Pounds from Keller Texas and -- mentioned as he was warming up he has been Dallas Baptist best relief pitcher. This will be his 21 appearance which leads the staff for into the team leading four saves. And -- three point 97 ERA which is the only earned run average on the staff under four. He's pitched 45 and a third innings 46 hits -- to 69 opponent batting average just eleven walks about one every four innings. And 37 strikeouts not overpowering strikeout total but three to one strikeout to walk ratio. Islanders' second third -- situation here. -- breath four and two thirds three hits three walks five strikeouts two runs to this point. And that was the chamber that he got that's gonna hurt for a long time but. He went out hero because he kept the ball from turning your gaming go or nothing. Garrett Stafford has pitched as recently as Tuesday at Baylor went to the third gave up a run on five hits in those two and a third innings with one walk three strikeouts. Pitched the ninth against Arkansas Pine Bluff a week ago yesterday and took the loss of that -- gave up four hits. And three runs with two walks and two strikeouts in that one inning he would save the Thursday game of that series with a scoreless inning. And also got to win over Texas a and M on May the eighth but allowed three runs on four hits in three innings of middle relief in that game so -- and the finish line -- little little up the data lately. Shocker is -- runners at second and third to out -- hitters Ryan Jones and Ryan has -- doubled of the right field corner and walked into plate appearances against the lefthander Aaron Milbrett.
Ryan is four for nine in the series including two home runs.
Lakers' -- nothing to base it could make it four. Johnson from the left side. Stafford ready to go to work.
Here's the stretch. And the first pitch and that's wheeled it outside for ball one. Watching Stafford warm up it looked like he didn't throw very hard at all I can wait for an encore one really turn it loose but. Maybe that's not his demo that first it was an off speed pitch outside 72 miles and now.
Here's the one now. I must be breaking ball kind of -- round the outside corner that would at 63 units to you know. Right back door and -- doing right now -- itself and do quarter. Jones gets a fastball fastball counts he punched him punishes them with the best. Too low got a fastball gets a shot but it's -- by the second base but he bottles for a moment that throws to first for the out. Just unfortunate for Ryan John -- British -- in general in the inning Baez and -- both hit screamer is right at somebody. And Dallas Baptist gets out of the inning with no runs shoppers with one hit. There were no errors and two -- left in scoring position.

Facing Travis miners who will start off the ball down inning for the shoppers. On that -- sponsored by the renal -- of equipment rental sales and service in the same location for over forty years at twenty ninth. And evidently of that nine qualifiers for the and of the season trying for the new steel tremor in blower will try to qualify one more today at a pitch to minors as a called strike from flooding. Kind of got through a 123 thing up with three straight ground balls that has induced ground balls from the last four hitters he's faced. There's another and off the end of the bat too short telegram's up with -- over the first one out.
Today's contest that is Charles stand Iago.
Good luck Charles -- can become the tenth qualifier get that to a nice. Double digit number for the grand prize drawing. Always nice to get that first -- of many times we've announced the contested and then boom somebody gets support. About the first. Couple weeks where can you -- out of our mouth then. There'd be a little bit of drama and had a little string of success story that's what guys getting qualify. Austin Elkins the hero for two with a pair of strikeouts. Takes just slow on the outside corner to know Elkins. Hitting left handed for the first time today 348 from the left side of the plate in the first two games of the series struck out twice right handed against Charlie Lowell -- lifted in the air fouled on the left field line and well lot of play behind the bullpen. To a 12 Elkins at 349 hitter coming into today's game.
One out the bases empty in the sixth Wichita State. Leading it to an ethnic and attackers two runs came in the fourth. 21. And not in front high fly ball to shallow left -- askew moving in under makes the catch you done.
The game in Evansville has moved to the ninth now it is nine to five Evansville leading. Three outs to go.
Of course in Evansville win gives the shocker is a co championship with Illinois State. And the number one seed in next week's Missouri Valley Conference tournament. Two outs Duncan McAlpine hit by pitches twice facing Lowell takes a fastball outside for ball one. McAlpine eight to 98 hitter with thirteen home.
Runs swaying and I'm missing here out in front of an off speed pitch and it's one of one. Turnabout -- marketers and throws soft stuff up there too after seeing. -- you'll written it for two thirds. 11 bounced Natalie got that went riding on his hands he bounced it to his first base coach and it's one into the McAlpine. Doctors in the sixth we'll have 3.5 in order getting their first look at your staff. Bombing took a big deep breath and the pitch. Pop gave up there Bayside make -- near the line shallow left field. Makes the catch Tyler Fleming put another 123 innings I would say. If there was any question today he just pitched himself onto the post season roster in the trackers will go. To the bottom of the sixth Charleston I think that this Becerra city dugout are -- qualifier in the law -- go to the bottom of the six leading to an update.

Must be over in Evansville lot of cheering all of a sudden. And it sounds like the Evansville places have defeated Illinois State to give Wichita State as chair of the Missouri Valley Conference championship. And the number one seed in next week's valley tournament shot usually Dallas Baptist here she's been happening -- lastly leads off the bottom of the sixth. Against Garrett Stafford you faced one hitter in the fifth in the first pitch decoding of breaking ball for a called strike one. The -- is that just three hits so far. And scratched out two runs with two out in the fourth. -- lastly is grounded to second and struck out swinging. It's an off speed pitch to load it's one and one. In 27 years at the Missouri Valley Conference has played a round Robin schedule -- everyone plays everyone else the -- have now won or shared twenty of the 27 regular season titles. Violence in the dirt it's two and one. Looks like shocker though get Missouri State figures to the day. Cooper -- rematch. -- thousand to the right side out of play it's -- into -- that will be at 730 on Tuesday night.
A couple of seating is still to be determined that Wichita State will be the one Illinois State the two of the red birds will face arch rival Bradley. In the opening round on Tuesday.
That this boosted Creighton. In the fifth spot. And dropped Evansville I believe -- a -- out of nowhere else. Quickly and live forever sorry Evans will with a victory that got him -- 32 to lastly in a swing at a Mets off speed pitch Saturday at. -- strikes out for the second time machine hackers. Have -- two straight pitchers who just ease it up there most of the time they've really had trouble staying back making solid contact consistently difference I guess between these two guys. And guys in the past we've seen -- just haven't made them all up where they can handle and it's critically -- that staff. I'm making mistakes now. Preston springer -- a little walk struck out swinging his first time up facing the right hander for the first time after two at bats against the lefty -- Efforts first pitch and springer takes a fastball for a strike on the outside quarter net best ball -- 82.
One thing to be determined now right three and four seats that's correct me. Indiana State or southern.
What is low and it's one and one and if both do the same thing of both winner both lose it's Indiana State to get the three seed.
Here's the 11. And pop up off the -- the bat left side of the infield the shortstop calling off the third baseman in the catch made by Elkins. What -- second out in the inning. Interestingly enough there is only going to. Missouri Valley Conference game which didn't get played this year and that was between now Indiana state senate in Illinois -- they split. -- series with each other and then it comes back to how you get started at the top the only gone down Indiana State. Went three and three against Illinois state of Wichita State -- of Illinois was one in five getting one when against the soccer's.
Here is -- and he takes a slider for a strike nothing in one breath oh for two reached on a fielder's choice -- last time up and supporter.
01. Fastball offers strike -- nothing in here. The one difference between Stafford and -- Britt is the difference between efforts really slow stuff and his fastball maybe three or four miles an hour lesson doesn't. It appeared 87 Mike Gilbert did at times that went way outside it's 12.
Gilbert was consistently 8485 looks like Stafford top Saturday two -- 83 from exceed. Both of those guys keep bombing yards so well also. It's low and outside two and two field where it. Now all the 62 and a third innings finished the season with two home runs allowed Stafford in 45 and a third is only -- brewery. Askew -- is sticky shoulder for about one. -- best -- cites three and to repeat all the that is -- distracted if you -- hitting about it nothing to give it and that ordered that was a pretty obvious -- there with his -- children. 32 data Brett. Andy hits now outside their. Laws and on the handled -- rolled past the third base bag you know get another chance at three into. Where in the bottom of the sixth inning. It is just an ethnic Wichita State the day at which the wind has been howling out to left it. Thirty miles an hour -- more pretty much all day long.
32 again. Strike three call that wasn't even close. That pitch was three or four inches outside it. Doug McClure rings up less here than tells him to shut out for arguing and the chargers debt in order in the sixth. After six Wichita State to Dallas Baptist nothing this game break rescue -- outsourcing.

Grant concrete comes on from the shocker bullpen looking to protect. Possibly his best performance of the year two and a third perfect innings against Oral Roberts on Tuesday got the win that game. It also pitched a scoreless innings against Oral Roberts on May the fourth. He has struggled over the second half of the season but has started to look a little better the last couple of times. And here's a guy who certainly has the stuff coming off Tommy John surgery a year ago to really give this team a big lift out of the bullpen in the post season. But again consistency will be the key it if he can follow up Tuesday's performance with -- another good one day got to be feeling pretty good about himself.
Yeah I would think that there's shocker fans shocker coaching staff should be back it up with -- another good month. Would have a better frame of mind about people in overall and a pitching staff overall how they perform down the stretch. There is certainly a rough past shocker. Pitching staff in particular in the bullpen went through. But. The more guys step up obviously. The better you feel about their chances in the post season. Possibly beyond Missouri Valley Conference turned.
They'll face Chris Cheney and Ryan Thompson or pinch hitter for -- at the bottom of the order and then Austin night Philly -- man here in the seventh just had narrowed to run lead for the shocker is that is -- to nothing. And Chris Haney one for two Holliday singled through the -- shortage last time up after fly ball to center in the second inning. Haney is 248. For the weekend.
Right handed hitter. On creep into the wind and right handers first pitch is popped up left side Cora started up at Grimes shortstop get a college mop askew in. I'm still going at him. Ask you should've called it off drives went a long way that made the play well for as -- as he is he had to run about as far as. Panic Grimes did going out it's obviously easier life for the outfielder generally speaking but. As far as fast as -- you had become. I'm still thought he had everything under control gathered it in very good play by Tyler -- and here is I -- Thompson and among creep was something -- beat him in the back look maybe like a breaking ball that just didn't do anything. Just sailed in their very softly at Thompson in the back so he's aboard with one out back the top of the order for Austin night. Third hit better by shocker pitching today they've walked to. Charlie Lowell struck out seven walked two and hit two Tyler Fleming gave up two singles but nothing else didn't strike out anybody at his two and two thirds. Pitched tonight on the outside corner for a called strike want to live there. Austin night as walks struck out after the -- through those lefties. He's seen sneaking away from its call from Doug McClure like that. Like chances getting room audience.
grief from the stretch the O line and he tried to go back active of that ball sailed wide it's one and one.
That might -- from Farmington, New Mexico. Got off to a great start as a sophomore last year in the first couple weeks of the season and then came up with. The arm injury that required Tommy John surgery to pitch swing and a miss it -- is now it's one into the night. Noting 91 down and away a couple of times and took a little bit off like maybe the -- change. And I went after. We've said all series long these guys really -- the fastball so you can stories off stuff in there. You'll have looking pretty ordinary. Here's the one to just missed out -- two balls two strikes -- two strike pitch night was disciplined enough not fish for. Which is definitely the case and any make them look ordinary though three Pittsburgh strike but you're really get hurt in Dallas Baptist he can't. And strike zone more than one it. Here's the 220. Just up a little bit. We're -- that. Outside edge again three balls two strikes tonight is three for twelve in the series at 313 hitter on the year coming into today's game you want to make it happen right 22 change -- Theory says if you will in the throw it to to come back and throw three Q we'll see if he does. Kind of back up changeup with -- another one it. Theory is that you give yourself two chances to throw one strike. And it it's not a fastball and certainly. It's senior favor because the -- three -- and it looked -- There goes the runner pitching is lined fouled on the left side. In fastball -- anticipating that Thompson might be ticking off three -- had thrown over. And Thompson did take off on that next pitch. Pretty good swing by night just trying to hit it where it was pitched away from him that lined it well fouled on the left side.
So we'll try 32 all over again we'll see if Thompson again takes off now that -- tip his hand on the last -- everything he's seen has been away. -- Going to change -- working -- Long hold in the stretch to freeze the -- and throws over to first -- almost had Thompson laying it throws a little high. -- a little slow getting back. -- balls two strikes to -- night every pitch every hitter important it's just a -- nothing game Wichita State leading in the top of the seventh.
And creep from the stretch there goes throughout her again pitches yet on allied -- just a short hop Mattel and throws to first he just gets want. -- can watch it over there for the double play that. It's a little harder. Starting -- work or Dallas Baptist right there with their. Real close to right themselves right now -- seven that. Almost look for their face and Baez knew he tried to get it on the line but it ended up in popping just in front of his glove. Actually made a pretty good pick up on the short not gotten over differs two down. Runner at second to better Tyler Robinson is over three in this -- with a strikeout a fly ball to center. And a low one hop blundered by as at second base. It's doing good fastball for strike on the outside corner. Concrete was hitting 91 pretty regularly even 92 a couple of times against Oral Roberts on Tuesday his velocity pretty good again today that went 91. 01. Jack swearing and a foul tip. And it's going to be -- to. Johnny broke one off then -- had a fastball swing starting out try to freeze in -- around on another willfully breaking ball. Soccer's you'll have put up a smoker.
Nothing into town or others. Better -- second two out top of the seventh. Ninth street to the plate. And they -- in the -- in the dirt trying to get in to chase that he did not it's one ball and she strikes. This -- that time by Tyler Robbins. It's a very good hitting Dallas Baptist team. The one to. -- down the right side. At a pretty -- going to balance sliced it across the windy carry over the roof of the shocker bench down there in the bullpen. And we'll stay at 12 and Josh Smith the sophomore left hander. Through -- that the bullpen in my like to get him an inning today. Then my increased ready once again. And turns to second base just keep their honor on -- Thompson. The pretty good lead both middle infielders are playing deep and well off the bag.
All the runners are important that the runner at second but only cut it to 21. My increased big job to get the hitter right here. You wanna face Jason -- man with nobody on nobody out in a later in the.
Once again the stretch but among create them -- to news.
Came out -- brought down to land grab -- when a solid innings. No runs no hits he had about it but left him stranded at second. And a shocker bullpen doing a nice follow up to a very good performance by Charlie -- today and at the seventh inning stretch at the shocker is too. Dallas Baptist nothing this game break from butler.

from the bottom of the seventh that it wouldn't hurt anybody's feelings in this ballpark they pick up another runner to leaving just two to nothing 36 and a half outstanding pitching by both teams today. Garrett Stafford a scoreless inning and a third in the books as he faces Travis that's putting it up for the shoppers. That it has the only RBI of the day -- roller up the middle for a single in the fourth that drove them the soccer's first round. And you -- system and in the air to center field Wynn's gonna carry toward left center a little bit Venus over to make the catch one pitch one out in the seventh. Early in the season we probably be lamenting the fact that Wichita State hasn't been able to make adjustments to a couple of soft throwers but. I'll give full credit to Dallas that is pitching staff today it mixed it up they kept it down around -- Every time he got magic they release something else. It says it paid. Back and forth and it pitcher's dual. Between these two clubs today -- that instantly thrown. Clinton McKiver takes a strike on the outside corner Clint today a strikeout swinging and a walk facing Stafford the right hander for the first time.
01. And that would -- one ball and strikes. Bradley came from behind to beat Indiana State today five to 411. There's a strike call it's one and two so southern Illinois. Does finish off Missouri State the SI you salukis will be the three seed. In the tournament they lead three to two now on the bottom of the seventh at Springfield.
12 pitch. She amassed outside that was really close and it's tuned to power even gotten advertisements on that one. Though he has. You have been taken at the way also. One for each side due to. Pop -- left side Wendell drifted into shallow left field shortstop now he backpedaling and makes the catch. There again the left fielder was there present came in as he should but the shortstop Dawkins felt that he had all the way and then the wind -- gave little -- and he had to back -- quickly to make the catch. As long period -- behind the ball. A little bit you feel okay. If they continue to drift and making over the head catch -- you -- try to make gets behind him noses at those who want to pop out the club. If you can get behind it and can't just a little bit. That you feel a little bit better both short stops -- pop -- to take Laura takes a called strike he has grounder to third and laid down a bunt single. So one for two on the day. Two out bases empty in the shocker half of the seventh. 018. It's a soft liner and I'll grab the shortstop they just didn't climb fly -- falcons want up caught it in the webbing. And hijackers and had a few near misses on base hits today it could go and order in the seventh we go to the eight that is still two to nothing Wichita State. At this game break brought to you by -- benefit plans.

Top of the eighth inning Wichita State leading Dallas Baptist who did nothing. And it'll be the heart of the order coming up for the patriots against grant -- creep who pitched a scoreless seventh. The -- Jason Chris and Ryan Enos and Travis miners suit to left handed hitters -- started off and then the right -- it's swinging miners. And all playing center field now Travis then it went out after having and it last campaigning right Jones was over right. Present stands in the increase first pitch rolled the right side -- has at the first baseman signaling I'll take it myself and does for the out. Shocker there plane slamming him on screen. Have done an excellent job to keep the ball on the ground. Have been a couple balls in the -- but only pop ups McAlpine and Chris Haney popped out. Fleming had a nice little run there. Five outs in a row where there -- all on the ground. On creep its ground ball out the first pitch that he throws here.
Here is brining us and he takes a strike if that needs. Seven. Ground ball outs between Fleming and ninth street band and three balls and machines Edward. This week pop ups whether they -- to the outfielder caught in the infield of one. It's time for ball one ball one strike. Always good to face this guy with the bases empty he's. Checkers have controlled him pretty well but he does have the teen home runs on the year. 11. Anyone around on a pitch he tried to hold off on an ID one mile an hour fastball up out of the zone and it's one in two. It is taking a little time outside the batter's box trying to regain -- composure very unhappy with himself for going around on that pitch and it's one into. And create kicks in deals missed time they're high fastball still into. One out. Bases empty or in the top of the eighth inning Wichita State leading two to nothing that's been the score since they scratched out a pair of runs with two outs in the bottom of the fourth.
Concrete appeared to be ready and then. Attempted to -- stepped back up the -- for a moment now he's back into the wind the -- to manage it right through the middle spires behind second fields throughout crop. Just in time.
Both -- my head back standing behind the bag couldn't get much on the throw but made an accurate -- and a nice pick up five McKiver on the short hop. Might create and lastly could get together on the previous pitch he threw a changeup. But I think it will biased got a little bit rate in the -- the ball skipped off mount ethical steam off of it but. That throws -- court from shallow center field though. With a star by Allen will bias. To out.
Travis miners. And -- from the right side with the bases empty he has struck out grounded to third to start a force play and grounded to short. Miners has been held at two hits and eleven at bats on the weekend by shocker pitching. Increase pitch fastball high and inside for ball on the miss it much today I don't know we did all Johnny boy. Suffering a little bit from turf toe that's largely why he's not in line up to date also but he currency day -- started first. Doesn't seem to be a serious thing with Johnny boy a couple of days' rest certainly probably doing good but. That's something that. Figures to keep him out the NBC turned. So is swollen around the joint painful at the moment to the count to minors and he takes it very Griffin misses for strike one. Country for the fastball at ninety -- and any trying to really whale on it that. Placed it nicely up inside his wheel house in two and one.
The next on the way. And a slider away it's three balls in the strike. And -- allowed one base runner when he hit a man with one out in the seventh trying to get through a 123 inning here in the the three want to miners inside for ball for a tried to bust the fastball again after throwing the slider away dismissed. To a two out walk. And it'll bring up Austin Elkins who is over three on the day. Elkins a left handed hit areas struck out twice and flied to left and if you miss the news earlier Evansville defeated Illinois State nine to five today the red birds falling into a three games at Evansville and so they will share in the valley title with Wichita State. -- swings in 2001 straight back for strike one. That is the first regular season title ever won or shared by Illinois State it is the twentieth. One or sheared and 27 seasons by Wichita State. The shocker will be the number one seed in next week's conference tournament. Nine -- with -- one. Low for ball one ball one strike. Each team with just three hits in this ball game. Elkins and very big guy by camp -- seventy freshman but. Does that little pop in about eight home runs on the here.
And brief look -- shoulder to first the 11 apples here in the air right drifting toward right center Ryan Jones in his new position of right field make the play. -- getting over. -- concrete and Tyler Fleming golf really good out of the shocker bullpen today the shot that continues through seven and a half was a -- lead to added I think this game -- rescue bison -- outsourcing.

The its Wichita State that's one last chance to add a little insurance before. Dallas Baptist comes to bat for the final time in Tyler crimes related off. Facing -- Stafford used pitched a hitless scoreless to a third out of the Dallas Baptist bullpen for his pitch to Grimes breaking ball in their for a strike. -- today has hit a soft liner to the shortstop and is laid down a sacrifice bunt. Not many at bats for either team today in all pitching. Breaking ball drops low one and one. Grimes Baez and Jones due up for the -- here in the -- Here at Stamford with a 11 crimes take slowed to a one. And telegrams who has struggled lost speed breaking stuff occasionally lately doing good job of laying off those that are not in the strike zone please recognize -- in a lot better today. 21. Now that one out in -- a little bit again and -- students do not look like I've been straight chains. You can -- guys for being way out front changeup because it looks like another pitch breaking ball is unique. And ought to be able to certainly when you're going good -- one that he fouls that limit 68 and he was again a little out in front but held it off the handle. Which it does states hits have been a one out double by Ryan Jones in the first. An RBI single by Travis that it in the fourth and a bunt single by nick Moreau in the fifth. And Grimes. Excellent it's inside the catcher's glove and dropped to the ground and it's three and two.
Again Tyler -- largely because of him. And next time shocker -- buy it it's that will tie the all time single season record. Time the plot that the and that breaking ball down away for gulf war Stafford has allowed his first base runner. With a leadoff walk here in the Gates's hackers have a chance wasted. Manufacture something add to their lead they did a good job after leadoff walk in the fill out. A -- single by nick Moreau trying to -- to run over them drives sacrificed the runners to second and third Baez -- line drive that hit the pitcher and turned into and out and then Jones hit a rocket right at the second baseman for the final out so. That's been their best chance to add to -- to really well hit balls back to back it is didn't get through.
I as next opportunity comes right now he is over three on the day. In addition the ball that hit the pitcher he has hit a fly ball to left and struck out looking first pitch to him is time for ball one. Gene Stephenson did not show any signs that he was having by a spot on that one. Third -- not Kosher -- the bag. Rated creep in. Good differs Grimes back -- seven for thirteen as a base stealer. And no harder than Stafford throws you'd think he'd be a guy that she could run on a little bit. You know Travis like offices and then he -- here has been all series long and what team tends to like it is. Bias swinging thousand back and it's one in one. And we'll say. We've talked about the viability of this many times who will see it gene goes back to an old pattern of his which is to give a hitter one swing and then put the -- on in this situation. Or hit on especially -- biased -- handling that lately.
at first nobody out bottom of the -- Wichita State leading to do nothing.
One Wadi is flooding but Stewart's third bit too hard and foul. And so -- one into.
Streak is in jeopardy. Realize that is. True -- sixteen games streak which he has reached base safely by way of hit or walk. I as this flied out struck out and then got robbed of that that that line drive that hit the pitcher. -- ticketed for center field also as a nine game hitting streak. The fifth longest by a shocker player this year.
12. Why did -- senator. But it's gonna be caught the center fielder Arenas makes the catch Grimes back to first base with one out like and hit that ball hard right off it's crews that. Carried out the center fielder Venus tough luck or we'll bias. If you start another streak on these. The last two times up today hit it as well she can't -- couldn't find a hole anywhere. Ryan Jones and settled -- the last couple of days even knowing has three hits he's hit some balls hard right at people including his last time -- below streamers the second baseman. He also has doubled and walked. Efforts -- and Jones takes a breaking -- for a called strike.
Ryan Jones four for ten in the series with a double and two home runs. -- first one out. Stafford taking some time comes that. And a move to first -- back standing up.
All kinds of people playing catch in throwing in the shocker bullpen looked like. Clinton McKiver went down there to play some catch after the shocker scheme in the from the defense he. Set up. Here's the pitch. It now Jones a little bit out in front try to stay back in time that when that still was a little ahead of it rolled past Jim Thomas coaching at first and it's so into walker Davidson figures to play second base. In the next half -- By the way Dallas Baptist we'll have a lower author of its order in the top one night.
And other brands a leadoff walk -- it first with one out after Baez lined to center. And -- Ryan Jones bounces and a good block that ball bounced the good three feet out in front of home plate. And a good block by Haney he surrendered first.
Valley -- of it opens on Tuesday here next stadium don't forget the pretournament banquet on Monday night still sign up for that. But once it goes Grimes pitches outside that's for it's gonna be right there for the out. I don't know if that was a picture out but if it wasn't it was a perfect pitch to throw panel like a picture out. Well off the outside corner and Johnson Grimes was not easily it's a conveys the -- at the very beginning of this series.

For ball one McAlpine hit twice by pitches and then popped up to -- his last time not. 10 outside for ball to it is the first -- baseman -- on the first pitch he saw -- wanted to -- left. That. Violent crime three and now.
And away all three months -- who's been working ahead. Falls behind three you know on the leadoff hitter here in the ninth.
Calpine kind of a free swinger. The 30 pitch. As ball high -- floor certainly not what you want you know they're going to be taken a strike probably in. The ninth inning you're trailing by two knowing any base runners though here on out. Let's shocker you'd double play patriots we'll have the tying run come up there with every success of that are.
Which -- state pitching today is only allowed three hits all of them singles. And really none of them hit particularly hard but they have walked four and hit three so seven free passes. This is the first time. That'll lead off hitter has reached base since the first inning when Charlie bolt walked the leadoff man -- night in and struck out the side. And so it struck out four. Tying a record knew we -- around it's an outfielder makes three put that -- ties a record held by Mattingly tied a record not held by her batting with four strikeouts in one -- we know of three occasions in the 33 year history of shocker baseball in Eugene Stephenson. So rhetoric first which means everybody that comes out. Represented the tying run the next couple of guys are not power hitters at all each with one home run but today everybody's a potential power hitter with the wind howling out to left field. Chris Haney has one of the three -- In a soft single into left field in the fourth he also has a fly ball to center enough pop up to the shortstop in shallow left field. Concrete from the stretch and his first pitch to -- incited bounced off the glove up gaudy less than that fortunately for him that hit the hitter. Stayed right there at his feet. So no advancement from first one ball no strikes noting.
Josh Smith throwing in the shocker bullpen.
10 beauty. Strike on the inside corner wanna wanna fastball for months grief.
you have one double play at each of the first two games of the series. Certainly is one here. An increase that. And the 11. And a swing and apple gets past the catcher he swung at one that was way inside -- hit last Lee's glove and then got away. We'll see how that one scored as a -- advances to second with nobody yeah.
Interesting that soccer's. Don't have -- when going through 39 pitches. Couple of days ago Kobe guy yesterday threw 42 so it's not surprising that he's now back in the -- Shocked friends those you know it might -- going find. 12. Making ball bounced but I could block by lastly. And it looked like any -- he almost one after the island -- held up the that it bounced off -- chest protector -- lastly -- the first baseline but not far enough where McAlpine to move off second about three steps away from. It picked out there he had designs on the third base but thought better of Q2. -- short that'll keep the runner at second Grimes chases him back throws over the first one out. Good job by my entry to come back from kind of a shaky start control lies to the inning to get the first productive -- quality pitches actors facing off a little bit -- Duncan McAlpine will -- want but. Got that important first out in -- feedback on the ground a little bit. The national leader right -- Thompson's been kind of a pest today roller to third start a force play a little flare single underwrite them was hit by a pitches last time -- so he's been on two out of three times. Pops it up. Near the -- might create trying to get out a way that makes the can't.
Wow he didn't even see it. Once he saw was popped up he was looking around for everybody else to come catch -- which is. What you're supposed to do as a pitcher give out the way and let everybody else can get -- what hit -- sign up for -- borrowed again. And then he looked up like it was nothing on the ticket then I guess it's -- right here but not often do you. Serve up a pop up not look at it and then looked back up -- located but he made that look.
A lot easier than -- really well. Canada's stumbling leaning back reaching back as he made the catch that one creep was a third baseman when he came here as well as -- a capable -- very good play there -- down Austin night. The last chance for Dallas Baptist that he takes a strike on the outside corner.
Night a low hard one hopper to the second baseman on his previous at bat against grant -- creek that he has over three with a walk on the day. Adding from the left side in the 01 low and outside a ball to strike.
Might creep does have one save this year that came in the Evansville series early in April. As a chance he can get one more out pick one up here. No 11. Now back to the screen and -- wanting to.
We've been -- the velocity. Enabled through all three pitches for strikes it's time to kill all three. In. No particular count itself because I've got confused and -- from tape. One balls two strikes my entry from the stretch Steelers rolled to second this should do -- walker Davidson has it. Over the first for the out. -- against one of the best hitting teams in the country on a day when the wind was howling out to left field -- doctors record their sixth shutout of the season. To end the season in regular season play with a two to nothing victory stay tuned for the butler post game show.
