Last night stunk. Only one hit in a 5-0 loss to Lansing. There's no other way to put it other than it was a bad game for the Silver Hawks.
I still have a lot of faith in this team, because there is a lot of talent on this team. The one thing that is starting to concern me though is the lack of runs scored by the Silver Hawks. Only 92 runs scored in 28 games, an average of just 3.3 runs per game. South Bend ranks as the second lowest total in the league for both runs scored and runs per game.
While the team batting average is in the middle of the pack (8th out of 16 in the league), the base runners are not getting home. A lot of that has to do with youth and inexperience of hitting in clutch situations. Again, it's only 28 games and a lot of time remains both in the first half and the season, but just something to keep an eye on.
