Sophomore southpaw Andrew Chafin was just about perfect against Toledo today.
Complete game shutout, 88 strikes on 113 pitches, 15 strikeouts, no walks, threw first-pitch strikes to 20 of the 30 batters he faced.
His fastball and slider were about as crisp as ever. Coach Stricklin said after the game he knew Toledo would be swinging early to stay away from that slider in two-strike situations.
The game only took two hours and eight minutes because Toledo starter Mike Hamann was great as well.
KSU could only muster a run in the bottom of the seventh on a Cody Koch sac fly to deep right.
