Big three game series at home and we choke the first one.
Up 5-2 and we forget how to score. Now down 10-5 and no comeback I see.
Need to win the next two.

Took my 6 year old son to his first UIC baseball game today. Was chilly but a great day.
The Flames won 9-3. Admission was fee (we did pay $10 each to go into the Granderson lounge for a few innings). And was awesome because Curtis was in there! Was with his family so just have a nod and didn’t ask for a pic.
But damn the stadium is so nice. I never walked around it all. We walked in the outfield. Sat there for a while. Reminded me of the college days sitting on the first base hill. No beer sales but some of the families that seem to be regulars snuck in some.
Great time! I wish I made it out to more this year.
Anyways, at 61 in the RPI and back in 2nd place. Need a win on Sunday!

Great way to end the series as we win over Murray State with the mercy rule 15-5 in the 8th inning.
With the win, UICs RPI improve to 49

Pretty dominant win today. UIC’s batting top to bottom is just very consistent. Not a huge drop off as you get to the bottom.
Ewell is just ridiculous right now. He’s hitting everything. Maybe going for two Valley player of the week awards in a row?
Btw, interesting that Murray leads the all time series against us at 40-7. Holy hell.
