3rd Inning
We are through 3 innings in Omaha and Fresno State still has a 2-0 lead on Georgia.
Fresno has flashed some leather in this game. Georgia has as well. But the obvious difference from last night to tonight is the pitching for both teams. Pitchers aren’t leaving fastballs in the middle of the plate for hitters to send flying into the gaps or deep into the Omaha night.
Control has been a factor tonight as well. Last night, pitchers for both teams walke a combined 13 hitters. So far tonight there has yet to be a walk allowed.
Georgia used 7 different pitchers in the game to only 3 for Fresno State. There was a total of 370 pitches thrown between the two teams.
In the top of the 4th, Steve Detwiler hit a monster double to the left centerfield gap to drive in the third run of the night for Fresno State, giving them a 3-0 lead. He has driven in all 3 runs for the Bulldogs.
In the bottom of the inning Georgia put a runner on third with a one out triple but failed to drive him home as their next two hitters struck out. Georgia has left 6 runners on base. Fresno State starting pitcher , Justin Wilson has 7 strikeouts through 4 innings pitched.
We head to the 5th with Fresno State up 3-0.
