Based upon results this weekend, I may have been wrong about South Alabama being the “best of the rest” at this tournament.
That written, crazy that Iowa batters struck out 17 times but came away with a 6-2 win.
Previous commitment kept me from watching but I tracked a bit on my phone. Will be curious to dig deeper later but it appears that Morgan had a decent outing. Looks like Simpson pitched out of a number of dicey situations.
Survive. Advance.
Today’s game is the only one where an Iowa win means positive RPI points.
Don’t have time now to look but earlier in week I noticed that Pepperdine’s Sunday starter has ‘t fared well and they’ve used an array of pitchers on Sunday. Two relatively easy wins for them so far so there bullpen should be rested.
