I really hope Cloney is not out for the year.

The hits keep on coming, Oregon runner spiked Cesar Salazar in a play at the plate and Cesar is out of the game. Looks like a right arm injury of some sort.

4-2 going to the bottom of the 7th

Thanks 84Cat!

4-3, runners at the corners with 1 out.

ChooChooCat · Post by **ChooChooCat** » Thu Apr 13, 2017 10:57 pm

Oregon up 6-4 in the top of the 9th, for the love of me I don't know why Jay keeps trying to make Rivas a pitcher, it's just not working.

He's pitching tonight. Hasn't given up a run through two innings.

2-0 Cats bottom of the second

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Fri Apr 14, 2017 8:49 pm

5-0 Cats top of the sixth

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Fri Apr 14, 2017 10:12 pm

Cats win 5-4

ChooChooCat · Post by **ChooChooCat** » Fri Apr 14, 2017 10:13 pm

Whew, true to character our bullpen almost blew another one. Our pitchers sure to love hitting batters.

Irish27 · Post by **Irish27** » Fri Apr 14, 2017 11:24 pm

Glad to see Cloney was able to pitch, he is the one guy they can't afford to lose.

Great night at the yard. First time seeing a bat cat game at Hi Corbett. Just beautiful views, sight lines were great and the park was immaculate.

Cloney looked good and while Ming once again struggled with his control we were gifted enough runs to get the victory. AZ baseball is the hidden gem of our AD. A night out at the yard is an absolute must. Will be making another trip soon

Also did he forget to mention they sell beer? Yes, beer.

Except at post-season tournament games - the time I went.

No beer at ncaa sponsored tourney games. Cats up 8-1 early. Quintana with a 2 run dinger. Cats need this series to keep rolling toward a top 8 national seed

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Sat Apr 15, 2017 3:33 pm

Cats pound out 23 hits and win 18-4 to move to 9-6 in the conference. While all the teams are tough (all under 100 in RPI) we really only have UDub left of the probable top teams and we have them at home.

Was hoping to be at 10-5 now to be on pace to go 20-10 which I think would allow us to be a top 8 national seed. That was a really good series win. Oregon is tough and will win a couple of game in the tourney.

Next up Utah and we need to sweep those bastards as payback for last year

ChooChooCat · Post by **ChooChooCat** » Sat Apr 15, 2017 3:46 pm

Very big and important series win. You gotta love when our bats are just killing it like that. Rivas was 5/5 and Matejevic 4/5. Oregon hadn't given up more than 13 hits in a game all season and we got 23 on them.

We have a road trip @Stanford after the Utah series and Furd is #33 in RPI. They're also ranked and are no joke, so that will be a tough one.

Awesome day today at Hi Corbett. Seemed like a really nice crowd, especially since it was so hot. I burned the hell out of my arms. Oops.

Any idea why we are on Thursday thru Saturday schedule again? Is Sunday a religious holiday?

Great to see the cats as a #4 national seed. I just want a top 8 seed

ASUHATER! · Post by **ASUHATER!** » Wed Apr 19, 2017 6:30 pm

Next week is Thursday through Saturday too I think. 3 weeks of it for some reason

Nice article on recruitibg. Only two teams in the top 20 in the c west. Looks like a lot of ESECPN bias

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Thu Apr 20, 2017 4:52 pm

About an hour until first pitch. Looks like we are holding off Cloney until tomorrow and starting Lebault. Need all 3 this weekend but tonight is going to be tough as they gave a really good #1:

azgreg · Post by **azgreg** » Thu Apr 20, 2017 5:44 pm

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Thu Apr 20, 2017 7:18 pm

Cats down 3-1 after the Ute's scored 2 in the top of the third. Utah has a good #1 pitcher but hopefully the second and third time through the lineup we can Get to him

Edit: second time up Stevenson crushed one for a roundtripper. Now 3-2

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Fri Apr 21, 2017 6:34 pm

They are doing a "Major League" theme night at Hi Corbett tonight.

First 1000 fans get Ricky Vaughn glasses.

Irish27 · Post by **Irish27** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 8:25 am

Looks like Cloney won't pitch this weekend, hope it's not serious. The Cats need to win today to avoid the sweep.

ChooChooCat · Post by **ChooChooCat** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 8:44 am

This is an awful series loss, no way to argue around it. How the hell did Utah become our kryptonite?

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 9:20 am

5 straight losses to the Ute's. Kinneberg taking it personally that GB passed him up on the job hunt

I am glad GB did.

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 10:29 am

Agreed Irish but man this Utah team seems to make it personal when they play us

scumdevils86 · Post by **scumdevils86** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 6:19 pm

Down 3-0 with no outs in the top of the 1st. I'm at the game too. Terrible.

ASUHATER! · Post by **ASUHATER!** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 6:49 pm

Look like garbage against Utah this weekend

scumdevils86 · Post by **scumdevils86** » Sat Apr 22, 2017 10:40 pm

Lose 4-2. Swept at home by Utah

UALoco · Post by **UALoco** » Mon Apr 24, 2017 9:26 am

Gonna be tough to host 2 rounds of regionals now..maybe the just the first round.

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Thu Apr 27, 2017 8:51 pm

F ing lost to furd 3-2 wasting a nice effort from Ming. Just sick not having our #1 two weeks in a row after we put ourselves in a great position to host both rounds of the regionals. Just feels like we are so freaking snake bit with injuries between last year's finals with Bannister and this year in the last 2 series. 0-4 in our last 4 conference games

scumdevils86 · Post by **scumdevils86** » Thu Apr 27, 2017 9:15 pm

Yup. Pissing away our chances

ChooChooCat · Post by **ChooChooCat** » Sat Apr 29, 2017 11:32 am

Forget being a top 8 seed, we're kissing hosting a regional goodbye with every day that passes.

ASUHATER! · Post by **ASUHATER!** » Sat Apr 29, 2017 11:48 am

Yeah 5 straight conference losses, currently 6th in the standings and after this weekend we'll probably barley be ranked. A couple more losses and a regional is gone

azgreg · Post by **azgreg** » Sat Apr 29, 2017 12:03 pm

They keep this shit up they'll miss the tourney completely.

ChooChooCat · Post by **ChooChooCat** » Sat Apr 29, 2017 3:40 pm

Stanford up 3-0 in the 5th. Arizona got both its first two batters on base in consecutive innings and managed to fuck it up in spectacular ways both times. Very impressive.

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Sat Apr 29, 2017 7:02 pm

List 3-1. Very disappointing that we are throwing away a promising start. Have ASSU, UDUB and a hot California team
Left in conference. I think we have to find a way to go 7-2 to get in now

azgreg · Post by **azgreg** » Mon May 01, 2017 10:31 am

Cats drop to 19th in the rankings.

Should be our starting rotation for the rest of the year.

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Thu May 04, 2017 2:19 pm

Agreed. Hopefully with Cloney out it forced guys to step up(like both Ming and Deason did). Who closes from both sides though?
