Considering how good their offense is and how important the first game is in the regional, what would your approach be to pitching. My thoughts are that you bring your best against ASU.
WOW :
The Sun Devils lead the nation in homers with a total of 92 and have the best batting average in the regional at .307. Junior first baseman Spencer Torkelson and junior center fielder Hunter Bishop give ASU likely the best power-hitting duo in the nation. Torkelson is hitting .348 with 21 homers and 60 RBIs. Bishop checks in at .347 with 22 home runs and 61 RBIs.
Best bat: Torkelson or Bishop, pick your poison. Torkelson bats from the right side and Bishop swings from the other box.
USM’s pitching staff held opponents scoreless over the final 19 innings of the C-USA tournament with freshman right-hander Gabe Shepard taking a starring turn with 7 1/3 innings in a no-hit win over Rice. He was throwing 93-96 miles per hour and has a chance to be the starter against ASU on Friday.
Top arm: Redshirt junior right-hander Walker Powell put together an all-conference season with a 6-2 record and a 2.78 ERA, but Shepard is the best pitcher on the staff at the moment. He is 2-0 with a 2.16 ERA and 42 strikeouts in 25 innings.
GO EAGLES!!!
