Well, it wasn't recently.
Our midweek game records, followed by overall records, for the past few years.
2021: 3-2 27-10 (in progress, one more midweek game vs cal)
2020: 1-2 5-11 (pandemic shortened season)
2019: 8-1 45-14
2018: 9-0 46-12
2017: 10-0 42-16 (Marquess' last year)
2016: 8-3 31-23 (the last year we missed tourney)
Previous years Stanford won 40+ games were 2012, 2008, 1995-2004
Issues that affect mid-week game records include randomness (lots of this in baseball), pitching depth, and exactly how the coach treats those games.
Certainly Stanford has pitching depth issues this year. Though while they've given up 5.6 runs/game in the midweek games, 15 came in one outing.
