It's a bad day to be a Wildcat.
Before the season, I was excited about the prospects of Ohio State and Northwestern’s matchup at Wrigley Field. However, now that it’s here, the Buckeyes playing in a baseball stadium one week before a top-five showdown with Indiana, two weeks before the 120th edition of The Game and three weeks before a potential rematch with Oregon in the Big Ten championship scares me.“It’s gonna be 100 yards. It’s gonna be in front of fans. We’re gonna go play,” Day said Thursday.
This afternoon, the Buckeyes need to get a comfortable lead in the opening 30 minutes and rest the starters for most, if not all, of the second half. The healthier Ohio State can be entering their final two regular-season games, the better. It needs wins in both to reach Lucas Oil Stadium – a place it hasn’t been to since 2020 – and the team being at full strength could be crucial in securing those victories.
From what I could find in the bios on Ohio State’s roster, the Buckeyes have three former college baseball players: Tywone Malone , Joey Velazquez and Jace Middleton . Emeka Egbuka, Lincoln Kienholz, Caden Curry and Ryan Rudzinski are among the Buckeyes who were prolific high school baseball players.
The team needs a pitcher for the 10th spot. Yes, Kienholz could do it, but with his baseball acumen and athleticism, he should be the shortstop for this make-believe team. Will Howard, Devin Brown and Julian Sayin are excellent choices here. Still, the best pick is Air Noland for no reason other than the fact that he is left-handed – and in baseball, being left-handed is desirable, especially on the mound. Give me the 6-foot-2, 195-pound southpaw to throw some heat from 60 feet, 6 inches.
