 January 31, 2021 The Flames have battled cold blustery weather all weekend to get in 3 total scrimmages.  On Sunday Gray Betts paced the offense with 2 singles and a walk and Aaron Anderson and Jake Lazarro each had a double.  Trey Gibson shined in his first outing punching out 6 batters in 3 innings with no runs or walks.  Landon Riley recorded a perfect inning with a K in relief.  Max Alba the UNC transfer looked good in his first outing of the spring.  He went 3 innings with 4 punch-out's 1 walk and 1 run allowed.  The Flames had a shorter scrimmage today.  Stephen Hill recorded 2 hits including a double.  Bo Majkowski had a double, Anderson a single and Hillier with a single.  A couple of intriguing arms that are fighting to get in that bullpen mix had encouraging outings today.  Tim Miller, the Richmond transfer had 3 punch-out's in 2 innings pitched and lefty Garret Horn recorded 4 punch-out's in 2 innings as well.  Horn is a 6'2 freshman lefty from Kernersville

  January 1, 2022 Well, it's officially the New Year.  For me and most of you baseball diehards that means we are just under 45 days or so away from the road to Omaha which will start in Gainesville this year.  It's still relatively quiet in the burg and it will be for another week or so until players start to trickle back in for that all so crucial 4 week stretch right before the start of the new year.  It's likely that most of the decisions have already been made on who will be on the active roster and who may redshirt (not counting injury) of course.  That being said there have been a few pieces of news break since we last wrote.   *Aaron Anderson was named a pre-season All American by the Collegiate Baseball publication which is one of the more respected publications.  Anderson was the only player from the ASUN to receive the recognition.  Anderson was a key cog in the Flames offensive attack and provided a spark from the LH and RH sides of the plate in year 1.  He also
