As Kevin Costner’s character Crash Davis would say in the 1988 baseball movie “Bull Durham,” “Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains.” The rain has no bearing on how one would handle the win or the loss, but the first part of the quote is something we think everyone should keep in mind: some- times you win, and sometimes you lose. We think that sometimes it’s OK to go into anything you do in life with these E.V. DAVIS | THE DAILY EASTERN NEWS words in the back of your mind,because sometimes you are going to fail.

By Maher Kawash Baseball Reporter | @DEN_Sports

The Eastern baseball team has been hit or miss this season of- fensively and in a weekend series against Southeast Missouri, the hits and runs went missing. The peak of the weekend for Eastern came in game one on Fri- day, where Tyler Jones tossed six innings of one-run ball followed by another save from Michael Starcevich to close out the 5-3 win. Starcevich has solidified the closer role for the Panthers, and he had one of his best perfor- mances of the season Friday, as he gave up just one hit in three in- nings pitched for his fifth save of the season. But, that would be the only save opportunity of the weekend for Eastern, as the bats just were not producing in the next two games. The Panthers have come up big on the mound at times this season with the bullpen keeping the team in games, but in many of those moments it is the offense that goes missing. That was the case in game two where Matt Albert’s solo shot in the fifth was the lone run Eastern could come up with in what re- SEAN HASTINGS | THE DAILY EASTERN NEWS sulted in a 3-1 loss.
