Ohio State defeates Miami (FL) 7-1

box score - http://hurricanesports.cstv.com/sports/m-basebl/stats/2008-2009/um23.html

Wimmers, Rucinski and Hale held them to 1 hit

official site


CORAL GABLES, Fla. – A trio of Ohio State pitchers, led by starter and winner Alex Wimmers (now 5-0), one-hit the No. 2 Miami Hurricanes and the Buckeye bats did more than enough to secure a 7-1 victory Tuesday before 1,755 fans at Alex Rodriguez Park. Ohio State, ranked 16th in the Collegiate Baseball poll, improves to 18-3 with the win while Miami, No. 2 in the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association poll, falls to 18-5.

Wimmers, pitching on three days rest for the first time as a collegian, was a warrior, pitching 5.0 innings without allowing a base hit. He exited with the Buckeyes up, 6-1, with a first inning Miami run unearned and set up by two errors and a walk. Wimmers walked five and struck out two for the game.

He was replaced in the sixth by Drew Rucinski, who worked 3.0 innings with his only base runners the result of a first-batter-faced single and a walk allowed in the seventh.

Hale then came in and slammed the door shut on a win for the 11th time this season. He struck out two of the three batters he faced. In all, Hale and Rucinski faced 14 batters and allowed just one hit and one walk.

Alex is a true Sophomore so he will be back next season (not sure about his age though but I doubt he will meet the age requirement this year)

Thank God! I'm tired of seeing Buckeyes go early. (sour grapes)

Holy crap that win is a beautiful thing. Now I can talk up the Buckeyes with these freaking Pac10 guys out here in AZ! Go Bucks!
