10 hits vs 9. 8 LOB. 4 errors. 2 earned runs.

Attendance was 1132. A lot more than the attendance at some of our away games, for those counting. Against the #22 UC-Irvine Anteaters, attendance was 558, 618 and 580.

Apparently nice day in Pullman, 2PM first pitch. Bet we get 2,000+ for the game, and probably more than a few co-eds getting some sun on their legs.

There you are. Only 1300-something for today's game. About like an EK BB game.

When we played ASU, they were talking about how ASU only had 25 players on their roster (27 actually, 2 RS's). Coach said all his players were engaged. Most teams have a lot more (WSU has 35, including Coach's son).

This makes a lot of sense to me. MLB teams can only carry 25, and they play 6-7 games a week.

25 players - basically 2 deep at the positions, and 9 pitchers. Plenty for the 3-4 games/week we play. Always going to be a couple of position players that can spot pitch as relievers. Like that Olerud guy. Everybody gets to play some and develop, save some money, etc. Maybe those last 8 guys don't get scholarships now anyway, but they cost money and coaching time.
