The Book 2007 Ragin' Cajun Baseball

[CajunRed]

Cajuns fall to NSU 2-1 tonight. NSU pitcher gives up only 3 hits on the night.



Cue those who will question our hitting as a team.

Well, yes, let's talk hitting. Seems the same hitting problems that have often surfaced over the last couple of years are here again. I believe we've scored 1 run in the last 20 innings.

UL's baseball team saw its offensive woes continue Tuesday, and Northwestern State's Heath Hennigan took full advantage. The Demons' sophomore righthander made his first decision of the year an impressive one, as he handcuffed the Ragin' Cajuns on three hits in a 2-1 NSU victory at Brown-Stroud Field. The Cajuns (11-3) were coming off a 1-0 loss at Southern Mississippi on Sunday, and have now lost three of four after a 10-game season-opening win streak. Hennigan (1-0) did not allow a Cajun leadoff hitter to reach base in any inning, and UL only strung together two hits once. that came in the third inning when Tim Santiago laced a two-out double down the right-field line and Xavier Alexander followed with a bouncing single through the left side. That tied the game 1-1, but UL had only two other runners reach base in the final six innings. Scott Hawkins reached on a one-out error in the fifth and was caught stealing, and Kolin Hatfield singled with two outs in the eighth and was left stranded.

Not sure what to tell you. Maybe the alumni association is trying to trade you to the other side.

... for a player to be named later!

Here's the original email sent by the alumni association. I'm planning to go, so does anyone know the right answer?

I am paraphrasing from the SEBaseball.com Daily Dose ... A scout told Mark Etheridge that the Cajuns are really good. The scout had another scout tell him that they are the best team he has seen. That they are SEC good and have one of the deepest pitching staffs.

Thanks for the info. Brian. Keep it coming.

I think this is one of the problems with college baseball not being more popular. I am not a member of SEbaseball or of Baseball America, and I don't have the money or the time to spend on the services. It makes it hard for fans of the game to keep up.

I feel your pain. It's not as easy to stay on top of college baseball as it should be. But Sebaseball.com is really cheap, something like $6 a month. And it's very much worth it.
