• Texas A&M senior righthander Ross Stripling threw eight innings against Texas Tech, giving up two runs (one earned) on four hits. He didn’t walk anyone and struck out 13. The strikeouts put Stripling among elite company in the Texas A&M record books, as he surpassed 300 strikeouts for his college career. Only three other Aggies pitchers have recorded 300 or more career strikeouts: Casey Fossum, Jeff Granger, and Stripling’s teammate, Michael Wacha, who collected his 300th the day before. Texas A&M’s offensive force for the team’s weekend series win was outfielder Tyler Naquin, who went 5-for-12 with three doubles, a triple and a stolen base.
• Oklahoma State lefthander Andrew Heaney continues to dazzle and pitched a complete-game shutout against Oklahoma. Heaney allowed just three hits and one walk while striking out seven. He picked up his seventh win of the season, improving to 7-1, 1.65. Heaney is second in the nation in strikeouts (behind only Duke righthander Marcus Stroman) with 109 on the season.
• Louisville righthander Justin Amlung carved up West Virginia for eight innings, giving up one run on two hits while walking one and striking out 10. The 6-foot-1, 180-pounder didn’t get a decision in the outing and is 7-3, 2.16 on the season with 85 strikeouts and 17 walks over 83 innings.
• Arkansas third baseman Matt Reynolds had a productive weekend against South Carolina, even though the Razorbacks lost the series to the Gamecocks. Reynolds went 7-for-13 on the weekend with his 14th double. Over 167 at-bats this year, he’s now hitting .329/.449/.485.
• Cal Poly outfielder Mitch Haniger continues his hot streak. Against UC Davis this weekend, Haniger went 5-for-12 with a double and two home runs. He leads the Big West with 11 home runs and 51 RBIs and is now hitting .345/.420/.615 on the season.

The strikeouts put Stripling among elite company in the Texas Tech record books, as he surpassed 300 strikeouts for his college career.
Posted by CH | May 7, 2012 at 3:54 pm | Shortcut- The team he pitches for is Texas A&M
It would be very interesting if any of the scouts had notice the job done by the First baseman/catcher of the Coliceba Team Osvaldo Espada. This young man finish with the batting title .636 avg. 5 rbi's, 4 runs, 1hr, 2 doubles, 4 hits and also an outstanding job at first base.
