2H, CG shutout for Noviello. Siena is horrible, but still nice to see him pitch so well.

A Stags home run derby at Alumni Diamond. Turned out to be a lovely day to watch the home opener and a decent crowd on hand.
Jake was lights out.
Weather looking iffy tomorrow. Would suspect we'll see a doubleheader on Sunday.

"It all starts with Jake (Noviello)," Head Coach Bill Currier said. "He pitched very efficient and mixed three speeds and did a real good job of keeping us in the game.""I thought the first time through the order their pitcher did a good job at mixing speeds and us chasing out of the zone a little bit," Coach Currier said. "The second time through we got a little better and the third time around we did even better. We made nice adjustments as hitters which I was happy to see."With the win, Noviello improves his career record to 12-0 against MAAC opponents and a 9-0 mark at home. fairfieldstags.com/sports/baseball/roster/jake-noviello/6056145 fans at the game Box Score:fairfieldstags.com/sports/baseball/stats/2023/siena/boxscore/13240The Stags are now (10-9)(1-0) and the two teams will complete their three-game set with a doubleheader on Sunday starting at 11am.Fairfield Baseball @stags_Base πππππππππ π Congrats to Matt Venuto who picked up his career hit #π― #WeAreStagsπ€βΎοΈ | #StagsCompete | #MAACBasefairfieldstags.com/sports/baseball/roster/matt-venuto/6063

Griffin Watson left the first game half-way through, and didn't play the second game. Anyone know if he is OK?

Griffin Watson left the first game half-way through, and didn't play the second game. Anyone know if he is OK? Watson got hit in the face by a pitched ball in the CCSU game. He fell to the ground and didn't move for what seemed like an eternity. Then he popped up and started walking to first base with the trainers at his side. Currier took him out of the game, and I saw Watson walking back to the team bus afterward. He seemed fine. He played Friday (2-4 with a home run) and for a few innings in Game 1 on Sunday. I didn't hear anything about why he left the game today, and I don't want to speculate.

I think the MAAC danger for the Stags is dropping games against the teams that have one really good starting pitcher. This offense is just going to keep pounding mediocre MAAC pitching and bullpens.
First up is MSM.
