Wednesday's baseball game in Charleston, West Virginia begs all the attention you can think of for the fact of irony. But Marshall coach, and former Buckeyes coach, Greg Beals has but one thing on his mind...just playing baseball.
Their offensive ways continued Sunday, as the Ohio State Buckeyes scored 28 runs in a double-header sweep of Cal State-Bakersfield and moved to 8-6 on the season.
Ohio State pounds out 15 hits, get three-hit games from Ernst, Kern and Andrews, Ernst blasts his fourth home run, and the Buckeyes evened their record in Bakersfield with a 17-run win over the Cal-Bakersfield Roadrunners.
Coming off an impressive showing in Texas, the Buckeyes are in Bakersfield this weekend hoping to build on the confidence earned from wins over Mississippi State and Oklahoma.
Spring practice begins and so does Ryan Day's next season of evaluation to determine his next quarterback: Kyle McCord or Devin Brown. New Buckeye beat writer Jeff Gilbert reports from ground zero.
