Did starting Hess in the first game of the tournament contribute to giving up 16 runs in the fourth game or would it have been worse?

What makes it worse was that this was only the 3rd game, not the 4th.

Thanks, so it was like the third game of a weekend series.

Giving up 17 runs on a Sunday outing should never happen.

17 runs are the most surrendered by the Cajuns since May 19, 2012 to ULM at home, our last game that season. Final score was 17-0. 13 years since we gave up 17. The following four seasons we won 40 plus games and played in four reginals and one super. Maybe history rhymes.

Deggs postgame said this was unacceptable year and we have to fix it. Expect roster changes and maybe some coaching changes. Can’t have this next year or Deggs will be gone

The Cajuns lost 12 games this year when they scored 5+ runs.

And only won 4 when they scored less than 5.

They were 22-11 when the pitchers allowed less than 7 runs.

But, they gave up 7+ in 25 of the 58 games. And 10+ in 11 of those 25 games.

The staff gave up 6.3 runs per game this season, up from 4.98 last year. ERA this year was 5.53, up from 4.48 last season. The team ERA has risen every year since 2021

Herrmann, Morgan, Holzhammer, and McGehee were all significantly worse statistically this season than last.

I mentioned it last night, I’d be surprised if we don’t see a new pitching coach next season. Gunner is a legend here, but those numbers are hard to ignore.

Deggs isn’t going anywhere unless the program just completely falls off a cliff for a few years straight.

[Cajun90]

So does this mean we are going to be a 4-seed??

A great example of why you want to see your alums who get into coaching go earn their stripes elsewhere, working their way up and later come home to coach.
