It's been a tough Astros classic, but lets not get too tense, lets put this series behind us in the Learn column.
I really think the problem is that they are thinking too much while at the plate.
Trying to remember everything coach Szefc has taught them-new system-has most struggling at the plate. As soon as they can play on feel rather than thought then the hitting will come around.
Lets Geaux Cajuns, RELAX
So now I am on record, I think the hitting will come around.
Conversely, while I think the pitching and defense will come around as well, this has me much more worried.
Coach Robe has won literally hundreds of games with the hitters only putting up 1, 2, and 3 run games. What he has not had to contend with is low or nonexistent pitching and defense.
Going back to the 02 regional, the Cajuns have given up 76 points in the last 9 games. That comes to about 8.5 runs per game.
Pitching and defense must get better.
The bright news is, the Cajuns are undefeated this year when scoring at least 5 runs.
So, on Pitching and defense, DON'T RELAX
