February 2, 200521 yr Ugh... we were there, FIU could not hit the ball today. Our starter did great for the first 6 innings or so but we could not hit off this guy that UM had throwing. Hope we get em back when they come to FIU in March.
February 2, 200521 yr You gotta give it to our guy, Ammer Cabrera. He was a bit wild at first but once he settled down, he did very well. UM had 1 point because of an error. If it wasn't for that error, the score would've been 0-0. I believe it was when Frank came to the mound that the game went to crap. (I think it was when Frank came up. I can't remember right now. I was busy trying to sneak some pics.) But I also gotta give props to Carrillo. Wow! Can the Marlins pick him up? Oh yea... and Mike Lowell was at the game.
February 2, 200521 yr Author Ya, Cesar Carillo is a stud. 13-0 as a starter, and Miami is 22-0 in games hes pitched in...Maybe the Marlins can get him in a few years..

February 3, 200521 yr Yea yea.....I just think he deserves some credit as well. He did a good job. Anyways...... I was laughing at this one chic that sat in front of us (then got thrown out because she sat in the reserved seats MUAHAHAHA) that was being really stupid. The FIU fans were all cheering "F-I-U!" and she's like "M-I-A!" Yet, I noticed that when FIU would get someone out or throw a strike, she would clap. I was like "WTF?" Chic needs to get her teams right. LOL
February 4, 200521 yr Damn I wanted Ammer to do a good job. I have talked to him at pitching camps and hes a really cool guy. And i know its a little late but Congrats to Asher for pitching the complete game shutout last saturday :thumbup Also I will have a Jeff Skellenger watch just becaue he is really cool also lol
