It might not have been the most scintillating baseball of the season but the UW-Whitewater baseball team picked up two more wins Wednesday afternoon on Prucha Field at Jim Miller Stadium.
"In my opinion we didn’t swing the bats very well, we didn’t play all that well, but we played well enough at times,” Warhawk head coach John Vodenlich said following Wednesday’s doubleheader sweep of UW-Oshkosh. “We had some key defensive plays, some double plays. We had good pitching when we needed good pitching, when we needed some runs we got some barrels on the ball. By know means did I think that was one of our better doubleheaders but in the end we got two victories.
Back at the start of the WIAC portion of the schedule, Vodenlich talked about “the journey” of going through the conference season. At this point of the year it is the successful teams that can grind out victories as was the case on Wednesday.
“Right now it is the typical time when the grind begins to get to you,” Vodenlich said. “If you work through it with a little discipline, the team will refresh.”
The Warhawks are now 24-2, and 13 & 1 in the WIAC, two games ahead of second place UW-Stevens Point. The Pointers travel to Whitewater for doubleheaders Saturday and Sunday at Jim Miller Stadium beginning at 12-Noon both days.
