Miami sluggers setting torrid pace a week ahead of MAC season

The RedHawks' game-changing power just might be the most intriguing storyline as the conference season nears.

Let's name a few random facts about Miami RedHawks baseball.

It's 7-9 this season, which isn't much to brag about, but it is an improvement over last year's 2-14 start. Eight of the 17 pitchers on the roster are freshmen, including each of the three pitchers with the highest innings totals on the team this season. It is home to Mizuki Shumsky, the only Japanese-born player in the Mid-American Conference, and boasts two players on its roster that are returning from All-MAC seasons in 2015.
