2025 Baseball Season
- Thread starter MDspider8
- Start date
According to our game notes, we'll have Hinchliffe on the mount to start tomorrow @ W&M. We're also supposed to host VMI on Wednesday, but there's snow in the forecast with a high of 25. Can't imagine that game gets played.

2025 BSB Notes 4WM 5VMI
Gameday! 3PM vs William & Mary. Unfortunately, audio only today.
The Tribe are off to a 1-2 start after a three game series against Rhode Island. The series included an insane 36-22 game on Sunday (so crazy the NCAA published an article about it; wild numbers in there). It is manager Rob McCoy's first year with the team, and they were picked to finish 8th in the CAA. One player to watch would be Ben Parker, a Grad. OF who was picked to the Preseason All-Conference Team. Last year he was All-CAA Second Team and was #51 on D1 Baseball's Top 100 Outfielders list. Off to a solid start this season, batting .636 (7-11) with 1 HR, 4 RBIs, along with 3 walks.
As MD mentioned above, likely we will not play the VMI game, but given it will likely be postponed I will still throw in a player to watch. Grayson Fitzwater is a Junior 1st baseman named to 1st Team Preseason All-SoCon. Last season he broke VMI's single-season RBI record (63) and tied the single-season home run record (18). For a team that does not historically hit for a ton of power, his bat definitely stands out in the 2/3 spot in the lineup. In their four game sweep of UMES, Fitzwater went 3-16, but did contribute 3 RBIs. As a team, VMI put up a staggering 27 steals on 33 attempts, good for number 1 in the nation in this early season.
