This was the first game I had the opportunity to score in calendar year 2023. Despite this game being a “home” game for the Buckeyes in Florida, UConn offered a surprisingly high-quality internet stream of the game. Unlike some major league radio broadcasts I could name, almost all pitches were reported as they happened, enabling me to keep score pitch-by-pitch with details on strike types.
This was the opening day of the college baseball season and thus marked the debut of Bill Mosiello as OSU head coach. The Buckeyes got a run in the first inning on a RBI from Miami grad transfer Cole Andrews, and would tack on the game’s only two other runs on a two-out double off the fence that just missed getting out from true freshman shortstop Henry Kaczmar. Isaiah Coupet had a tremendous start for the Scarlet and Gray, going 5 1/3 hitless innings. His final line was 6 innings, no runs, one hit, one walk, and nine strikeouts. The bullpen allowed a few baserunners, but no runs as true freshman Landon Beidelschies earned the two-inning save.
