Kentucky baseball gets mid-week win over Miami

Kentucky baseball draws a ton of walks in win over Miami

The Kentucky Wildcats baseball team hosted the Miami Redhawks on Tuesday evening for a mid-seek non-conference game. It would be a good night for the Cats.

Kentucky got on the board first with a walked-in run. Walks would be a theme in this game. Miami would take a 5 – 2 lead in the fifth inning, but the Wildcats would score six runs in the seventh inning to pull ahead for good. They’ add one more in the ninth for the 9 – 5 victory.

The Wildcats had just six hits in the game, but drew 14 walks and had five batters hit by pitches. In fact, two of their seventh inning runs came from hit batters with the bases loaded.

Nice Lopez went 1-for-4 for Kentucky and drove in two runs. Seven other Wildcats had one RBI as well. The Cats used seven different pitchers in the game.

Kentucky travels to Oxford, Mississippi this weekend for a three game series with Ole Miss. Game one is Friday at 7:30 PM and can be watched on SEC Network+.

Ohio State baseball wins close one against the Miami Redhawks

One on the good side of the ledger for the OSU baseball team! #GoBucks

It was midweek baseball for Ohio State on Tuesday, and boy was it a wild one. The Buckeyes and Miami Redhawks were embattled in a back-and-forth affair, with OSU coming out on top, 12-11, in Oxford, Ohio.

It didn’t take long for the Buckeyes to get on the board. Leadoff hitter Trey Lipsey was hit by a pitch, then stole second and advanced to third base on a flyout before Matthew Graveline singled him home to make 1-0. The Redhawks answered with a run in the bottom of the first inning to tie things up but OSU would be back at it again in the top of the third inning when Henry Kaczmar drove in two runs and put Ohio State back in the lead, 3-1.

Miami wasn’t done though and put the Buckeyes in a big hole with six runs in the bottom of the third inning with an RBI single, a grand slam, and an RBI double to make it 7-3. Amazingly enough though, Ohio State came right back to reclaim the lead in the top of the fourth inning with six runs of their own.

Kade Kern drew a walk to lead off the inning and advanced to second on a passed ball, before stealing third. Marcus Ernst sent Kern home with a single to close the gap at 7-4. The Buckeyes then loaded the bases before Josh McAlister walked to force in another run and leave the Buckeyes trailing by just two, 7-5. Mitchell Okuley kept things going with a two-run single to right field to make the score 7-7. Lipsey finished the scoring in the inning with another single to make the score 9-7.  

Whew. Things weren’t done.

The Redhawks scored one more run in the bottom of the fifth inning to pull to within one run and then Ohio State struck again in the top of the seventh inning. Kern led off with a double followed by walks to Tyler Pettorini and Matthew Graveline to load the bases. After the RedHawks changed pitchers, Marcus Ernst singled up the middle to drive in two runs and extend the lead to 11-8.  

Miami scored one more in the bottom of the seventh inning to make it 11-9, but OSU again answered in the top of the eighth on a sacrifice fly by Lipsey to make things 12-9. The Redhawks made things interesting by scoring two more in the bottom of the eighth but were retired in order down by just one run in the bottom of the ninth to cap things at 12-11.

With the win, Ohio State moves to 19-17 and will take on the Dayton Flyers on Wednesday at Bill Davis Stadium. The first pitch is scheduled for 6:00 p.m. ET.

Oklahoma’s Caleb Shaffer an underrated transfer portal add per On3

New Oklahoma Sooners offensive guard Caleb Shaffer has been named an underrated transfer portal add by On3

With offensive guard Chris Murray following tackles Anton Harrison and Wanya Morris to the NFL draft, the Oklahoma Sooners will have new faces on most of the offensive line for 2023. One of those new faces will be Miami (Ohio) transfer Caleb Shaffer.

The former three-star recruit has been starting for the RedHawks since his true-freshman season. He entered the transfer portal as a graduate transfer.

Brent Venables and his staff have been quite busy in the transfer portal, so landing Shaffer perhaps slipped through the cracks. Well, the people at On3 noticed. Mike Huguenin named Shaffer as an underrated transfer portal add by Bill Bedenbaugh.

Caleb Shaffer (6-5, 333) was a four-year starter at guard for the RedHawks, earning a starting job early in his true freshman season and never losing it. OU has a vacancy at one guard spot with the departure of Chris Murray, and Shaffer should be considered the leading contender. OU also nabbed Walter Rouse (Stanford) out of the portal, and he figures to start at right tackle.- Mike Huguenin, On3

Keeping Dillon Gabriel upright in the pocket plays a key role in keeping him healthy. If Shaffer ends up starting at guard, he will end up being a vital part of that for the Sooners.

Oklahoma Sooners land transfer offensive linemen Caleb Shaffer

Oklahoma continues its portal shopping spree by adding grad transfer offensive lineman Caleb Shaffer from Miami of Ohio.

[autotag]Bill Bedenbaugh[/autotag] is not satisfied with his offensive line room as the Sooners prepare for the 2023 season. It’s hard to blame him as the Oklahoma Sooners lost two starters, [autotag]Anton Harrison[/autotag] and [autotag]Wanya Morris[/autotag], to the NFL Draft process and Chris Murray to graduation.

Instead of waiting idly, Bedenbaugh went portal shopping and helped land interior offensive linemen Caleb Shaffer out of Miami-Ohio. Shaffer announced his commitment to Oklahoma on Thursday evening.

Shaffer projects best as a guard and marks the third time in the last four years that Oklahoma’s offensive line coach has landed a transfer guard in the offseason. Previous guards [autotag]Chris Murray[/autotag] and [autotag]McKade Mettauer[/autotag] ended up becoming starters for Bedenbaugh, and it’s quite possible that Shaffer could become the next starter for the Sooners at guard.

He has a wealth of experience, with 35 starts and over 2,200 snaps to his collegiate resume. Shaffer was an Academic All-MAC player as well. Since he is a grad transfer, he will have one year of eligibility.

Shaffer’s commitment gives Oklahoma a wealth of options if senior [autotag]Chris Murray[/autotag] is not granted another year. It also allows younger interior linemen like [autotag]Savion Byrd[/autotag], [autotag]Jake Taylor[/autotag], and others to continue developing at a steady pace.

Shaffer won’t be given a starting job, but he’ll undoubtedly be in the mix for one all offseason. Shaffer also marks just the second offensive transfer portal addition, along with the return of tight end Austin Stogner.
