The 2013 season is certainly not off to the start that Emerson had hoped for. The lack of experience and some scattered injuries have led to an 0-6 start for the Lions. Despite the poor record, there have been some bright spots during the week. Junior James Sullivan is hitting .435 with 10 hits and 4 runs scored. Sophomore Zach Dean and Junior Cal Ciarcia are hitting .316 and .304 respectively. Through his first six college games, Freshman Johnny Hasney is sitting at .368 and playing great defense at second base. On the mound, Sophomore Sammy Evers has thrown 9 innings over two games, allowing just three earned runs while recording three strikeouts.
Tuesday night, the coaches went to dinner with baseball alumnus Pete Hall (2010). We went to the site of Emerson Baseball's first team dinner in 2007 -- the Giant Crab. It was nice to recall the last six seasons and all of the characters that have come through the program. Drew Sumner will be happy to hear that we did not see Kent Anderson going back for more crab legs.
As an avid follower of Emerson Baseball, Zach Dean (utility player) is 6-18 (.333) I believe. I could be wrong, though..
