ASU’s 14-12 win over USC on Thursday didn’t exactly teach us anything new about 2022 Sun Devil Baseball as much as it did reaffirm what’s been evident about this team for a while now.
The pitching staff, from top to bottom, has been and will continue to be an issue. But man, can this team hit.
Thursday marked the third-straight game in which the Sun Devils and their opponent combined for 20 or more runs. Eight of ASU’s nine starting position players got at least one hit. Three of them—Nate Baez, Will Rogers and Ethan Long—hit home runs.
