The early part of any baseball season is about development. The schedule is the longest in terms of game volume, so the first couple of weeks serve a much different purpose than any other sport. Teams attempt to hit the diamond at as full of a speed as possible, but there are inevitable hiccups.
Last week, Boston College experienced that first hiccup. The Eagles held late-inning leads against Bethune-Cookman in the first two games of a three-game series, but the Wildcats struck for four runs in both games against the bullpen to take the series in Daytona Beach, Florida.
