Really disappointing series oldalum. For me, the offensive showing was arguably more disappointing than our showing in the circle, given how strong Arizona is on offense, and how young our staff is.
Summary of the Performance on Offense this weekend:
Friday: 1 run, 5 hits, 6 left on base, 2 walks, 5 K, 1-12 on advancement opportunities (8.3%)
Saturday: 0 runs, 3 hits, 6 left on base, 3 walks, 7 K, 2-10 on advancement opportunities (20%)
Sunday: 1 run, 2 hits, 3 left on base, 0 walks, 8 K, 1-7 on advancement opportunities (14.3%)
I sound like a broken record, but these stats show we were able to get runners on base against an elite team like Arizona. However, the coaching staff continues to have no strategy for scoring those runners once they get on base. That is how you only advance 4 baserunners the entire weekend in 29 opportunities.
Ironically, we left more runners on base during this series than Arizona, who scored a combined 41 runs to our 2 total runs this weekend.
