Dominance from Deardorff!
The senior tossed a complete-game shutout in @CoeBaseball’s first game of the @AmerRiversConf tourney. The Kohawks advance into the winner’s bracket and will return to action tonight at 5 PM, taking on top-seeded Buena Vista.

@CoeSoxMetrics Does bunting raise the probability of scoring at least one run? Sure it limits the upside, but it is almost like hedging a bet in my mind
@CoeSoxMetrics What are Snells numbers the third time through the order after only giving in 2 hits the first two times through? Or what do guys do their third time up after striking out the first two?
@CoeSoxMetrics @RyanBaranowski@cdcole55 No doubt. My point is that there is still something to be said about the guys that go out there and get the job done regardless of the situation.
@CoeSoxMetrics @RyanBaranowski@cdcole55 What if the 1-3 batters are 0-9 going into the 7th and the 7-9 batters are 5-9? There will always be situations where a certain statistic doesn’t give full credit to a situation. Sure some saves are harder to come by than others but that can be said for almost any stat.
@RyanBaranowski @CoeSoxMetrics @cdcole55 I’m not arguing with hit probability statistics. I’m arguing that baseball is more complicated than statistics makes it. As economists we know that people don’t always behave rationally. As a baseball fan, I know that players aren’t always process driven.
@RyanBaranowski @CoeSoxMetrics @cdcole55 The only result that matters in a save situation is getting 3 outs. Right or wrong, baseball players ARE results driven because at the end of the day it comes down to winning a game. 10 times out of 10 I’ll take a blooper RBI with 2 outs as opposed to a line out.
@IsaacEvans5 I could think of worse looks 🤗 also, just because you aren’t in season doesn’t mean you’re not an athlete. The Kohawks have a title to win next year so go get after it 💪
