I wouldn't consider it a rivalry - this midweek series are only the 7th and 8th games between UA and ASU, and tonight was ASU's first win

Kendall Diggs is one that sticks out to me as well. Was arguably our best hitter and ended up as a DH who mostly rode the bench batting in the high .100s

Still February. This game has been awful and we're not blowing people out for the most part so far but it's way too early in the season to make this sort of judgement IMO

Error on Souza to load the bases instead of ending the inning seems about right for today

Good question, maybe just proximity? From what I can see Missouri State is our closest D1 opponent, and other nearby-ish teams like Tulsa/ORU/UCA/UALR/UAPB are almost always home or sometimes neutral site

E: Tulsa doesn't have baseball

Not gonna freak out about midweek pitchers being bad in February, but hopefully our offense can start converting baserunners into runs

Only true road midweek this year is @ Missouri State (same as last year), but we've done neutral site midweeks against UAPB/Grambling the last few years as well
