Confident from their opening weekend in Florida, the Buckeyes head west to face the team's #2-ranked Oregon State and Utah in this weekend's PAC12/Big Ten challenge. Read Greg Hoard's weekend preview in today's Press Pros.
For the most part the first weekend of Buckeyes baseball looked exactly how Greg Beals might have envisioned it. After four games, the 'retooling' of the lineup shows promise.
They pitched well - Yianni Pavlopoulos (above) gave them the best starting performance of the weekend - and they hit even better. The Buckeyes closed their opening weekend in Port Charlotte with a convincing win over Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Read about the weekend finale in today's Press Pros feature.
They got just enough hitting, and they probably got just enough pitching. What the Buckeyes didn't get...was enough defense, falling to Canisius for their first 2018 loss. Read about the game in the latest Press Pros baseball update.
Opening day for the Buckeyes was far more important than the fact of just two wins. It's a team game played with people, but every now and then a little personal success...matters just as much!
