The Frogs entered Tuesday night’s game against ACU hoping to build on a four game winning streak as part of a busy week for TCU Baseball. But, as they celebrated the return of Jared Janczak, the ball club fretted over the potential loss of Luken Baker, who left the game in the eighth inning with an injury after awkwardly sliding into second base. Later that evening, they would feel another sting, dropping an extra-inning affair on their home field in an RPI-damaging loss (ACU is #224 in that metric).
Janczak made his first start in several weeks Tuesday, working a single inning as he prepares to return to the weekend rotation, something expected to happen Sunday at Baylor.
