bellarmine split...

Friday we headed to Louisville (NOT lewyville) for a four game series against Bellarmine. Joining the team this trip was Alex and Sam.  Alex's favorite is Blinn and Bones love Mooney.
The first game was at St. Xavier high school, turf field except the mound and plate.  Trev got off to a rough start, giving up 2 in the first and 1 in the second.  We answered with a three spot in the 5th. Bellarmine answered in the 7th to go up by 1.  Then the rain came. and we suspended the game until Saturday. 
Saturday we finished the suspended game losing 3-4.  Choate took the mound in game 2 against the knights as well as the loss.  I have no idea what was going on that game, but it was def not baseball.  Had Tyler had issues with his teammates like this 2 years ago, he would have kicked and screamed.  This year, he kept it all together and just did his job.  He tried pitching out of innings and getting it done at the dish as well.  Not only were we not in the game, the umpires weren't either.  Within the first 3 innings both USI and BU head coaches had warnings, for absolutely nothing... ok, maybe not absolutely nothing -- but in a normal game, the coaches were just communicating, but these umpires wore their hearts on their sleeve and couldn't take the communication I guess... Anyways, we lost 2-4 in that game.  But busted out in game 3. Taylor pitched game three and we hit it... scoring 20 runs on 21 hits and 6 bellarmine errors.  It was good to see us finally swing it.  On Sunday we won game 4.  Schultze pitches and the score was 4-3.
Some funnies about the weekend was Huling having to get the ball out of the corner in right and how the ball was stuck inside of a bag of David's sunflower seeds.  Sam asking if errors effect the score and Marx thinking he said do airheads work at scorers.
After this weekend we are second on our side, we have a big week at home.  KWC on Tuesday and Wednesday then NKU this weekend.
