Hoping for the best, tough break on kind of a weird play at the bag.
Who is Wimmers, and is this production a fluke, or something that could reasonably be expected to continue (ie—why hadn’t he had more playing time up til now)???

JUCO transfer catcher from the same school as Koty Frank. Here's a story about his commitment. Impossible to answer the second question but it sure would be nice to find a reliable left handed bat.
 
And Greg Beals gets tossed (after his pitcher gets a K) again...

Wimmers was on crutches during the fall ball series. I do not know what the injury was but I am guessing that delayed him.

Good road sweep. We needed that.

He was hurt in the fall then came back from winter break with a brutal case of the yips. It mind screwed him like no other.
 
What happened? Couldn't watch or listen today.
Covering 2nd there was an awkward tangle with the runner coming from 1st. Both were in the dirt with the slide and the tag and we didn't get a good look at what happened.

Bolt mentioned a possible hyper-extension of the arm somewhere. Elbow? Core left the field holding his elbow.

He was trying to field a throw in the dirt from Everitt at the bag on a steal and it looked like he jammed/hyperextended his arm when the OSU runner slid into him. He had his left arm in a sling after the game.

Give it up for Chick. He won’t be your extra base champ but if he can become this years Acker I’m ok with that role. Just get on base if you are the 1 or 2 hitters.
Laughing Chick got on base SEVEN times today. 2/2 in hits and FIVE walks. Crazy.

Thinking that after today it should be handed back to him with apologies.
Might be the best thing that ever happened to him, he has played really well over the last week and won't have to wear it as the weather warms up.

As it is with so many baseball players, it's all about getting one's mind right.
