Very clutch pitching outing for B J Nobles last evening. Badly needed by The Cats after Tuesday's beat-down. He only gave up 1 run in 6 innings. Pitch count was 115 or so.

CitDogs loaded the bases in 3 of those 6 innings and Nobles left them all stranded. 6th inning was really critical. The first 3 CitDogs reached base and we were only leading 2-1. I could just see us getting blown away. But B J got them out with no runs scored. Hard to do in college ball.

Decent offense. 4 consecutive hits to start the 6th resulted in a 2-1 lead becoming 5-1.

No errors... for a change. Good job, Cats! Need to take it to the CitDogs again today. Go Cats!
