The University of Miami baseball team (3-1) suffered their first loss of the season to the FAU Owls (4-0) Tuesday night by a score of 2-1.

In the first inning, the Hurricanes took advantage of FAU’s mistakes as designated hitter Bobby Marsh was able to notch Miami’s lone run after being hit by a pitch with bases loaded, putting Miami up 1-0.

I sat through the uninspired performance up in Boca.
The staff pitched well enough to win tonight.
Cuvet' s at bats and fielding blunders were hard to watch .
These transfers and freshmen better realize FAU is a decent mid-week team, but not Florida, FSU, or UNC.
Our hitters were overmatched tonight....wait until they see the Varsity teams on the schedule.
Tough to be excited about this team competing against top notch competition.

The first inning’s rare scoring situation was the only run tallied between either team for the next seven innings, as Miami dug deep into their bullpen to keep the lead intact.

Six different Miami pitchers appeared after starter Reese Lumpkin exited the game in the third inning, who then handed the job over to Carson Fischer in a difficult bases-loaded situation with one out. Fischer then retired two straight batters to hold Miami’s lead.

In the seventh, FAU’s bats started to show life, scoring two to take the lead late in the game. Miami’s offensive attack remained silent, leading to the Hurricanes first loss.

The Hurricanes will return to Mark Light Field at Alex Rodriguez Park this Friday at 7 p.m. to start a four-game home series against Princeton with Saturday serving as a doubleheader.

Already dropping a game that we should have won……. Man this is going to be to another loooooooooooong season…..
 
Have you guys ever looked at teams in the Southeastern Conference, when I look at the Miami team from last year and this year they look small, I mean you look at Texas, South Carolina Tennessee and many more I have never seen such big guys then you look at Miami they need to change their recruiting tactics to me there is no way this team will beat the better teams at all.

Miami baseball recruits the scrawny kid who bunts but has no power and the fat kid who can’t run and Ks a lot.

No one looks like a D1 athlete.

That isn't true. Hudson, Marsh, Galvin, Cuvet, Ogden, and the pitchers all look the part. Last night was a result of absolutely atrocious ABs - Miami's whole approach to the plate is baffling. I'm not even sure if we have a hitting coach, but last night there was literally no rhyme or reason to what we were doing up there.

And unlike in football and basketball, the ACC actually is a good baseball conference.

This week's poll has UVA, UNC and fsu in the Top 10 with NC State, Wake and Clemson in the Top 15

Our approach sucks...and, we rarely apply any offensive pressure to a defense....steal, hit and run, bunt...make a team make plays.

Bingo. I watched a bit of the first game against my better judgement, we just do not pass the eye test. The propagandists on this site were crowning our “approach at the plate” lmao. We simply don’t have the horses that some of these SEC teams do and it’s really not even close.

While our current freshman class may not look up "visually" to the SEC par, I would say our hs recruits have proven they have pop, Tavares went dead center just this spring and is absolutely jacked. Moreover, Puig is one of two players ever at PG National to hit a home run at Chase field with a wood bat. Looking forward to the 25 class, it looks more towards the "prototype size/SEC " you point out, its a plethora of guys in the 6 foot 200 pound range.
