They should have Davis lead off and Triolo bat second we have nobody to protect Joe

Vs TAMU we had a guy hitting .340 batting behind Joe. Didn’t matter internationally walked more than once.
He get IWs more than any college player I have ever seen.
You really need two big bats behind him so they don’t make that choice.

Cincy coaches told Branham before the series started that they would walk Davis no matter what if the situation was critical.
