Baseball Diamond Notes: Offense Sputters Yet Again

Fairfield failed to score a run in yesterday’s loss to St. Peter’s, brining its total runs scored this weekend to a meager three.

The offense, which showed signs of life last weekend against Le Moyne, came to a screeching halt.

The Stags struck out nine times and left 11 men on base. They notched only five hits.

In each game of the three-game series, Fairfield had more strikeouts than hits. To be in contention, Fairfield must consistently put the ball in play and get on base.

As of right now, there are only three or four guys swinging the bat well. Now that the Stags’ pitching has really settled in, the bats have to step things up and give them some run support.
