So good seeing this guy Jason Blanchard at Corpus Christi Hooks/San Antonio Missions game in Corpus. Former Lamar Baseball pitcher drafted by San Diego in the 9th round in 2019. Working his way to the big leagues. Missed the coveted Immaculate Inning last night by 1 pitch.

Cardinals even series against A&M-Corpus Christi with a Saturday win. Ellis goes 7.1 strong innings to get the win and remain perfect on the season (7-0). Ruiz and Varnado both homer. Game 3 set for a 1 p.m. first pitch Sunday. #WeAreLU

Cardinals tack on some insurance in the 8th on a wild pitch. #WeAreLU

Ethan Ruiz ends the 7th with a web gem at the hot corner. #WeAreLU
