and it continues. starting to look like itll be a long season. i understand that bob todd has done ALOT for osu baseball but doesnt it get to the point when a program becomes stagnant? i mean *ichigan was down for a long time and yet they look in better shape than we do. if im not mistaken arent they the last big 10 team to qualify for the college world series? and its starting to look like theyll be the next one to go. is it too much too ask for osu to make the colege world series more than once every 40 years? notre dame and nebraska have both done it recently so i dont buy the northern schools cant do it argument. just my $0.02

Baseball: DeLucia, Buckeye Bats Silence Bradley, 10-3 - The Ohio State Buckeyes Official Athletics Site - OhioStateBuckeyes.com

SARASOTA, Fla. ? Dan DeLucia picked up his first win of the season behind a career-high 10 strikeouts and solid support from the bullpen, and the Buckeye bats stayed hot with a season-high 19 hits in a 10-3 win over Bradley Tuesday at IMG Academy Park.

Man, our bullpen has been a freakin disaster. Awful, just awful. We're finally putting some runs on the board this year and now our usually good pitching has tanked. Todd needs to find someone who's going to come into a game and close em down. Use the young guys if you have to by committee but do something and do it fast.

Not good.
Since their 4-0 start, the Buckeyes have gone 4-6 against not-so-great competition. They need to step it up.

The Army game has been cancelled due to rain in Sarasota.

For crying out loud, is it raining everywhere?

SARASOTA, Fla. - The game scheduled for Thursday night at 7:30 p.m. between Ohio State and Army has been cancelled. Heavy rains swept through the region overnight causing the cancellation of all games hosted by IMG Academies and Manatee C.C. That leaves just one more game on the Buckeyes' spring trip: Friday at 2 p.m. against the Kansas Jayhawks. Jake Hale, 0-0 on the year, will make his second start of the season.
