Baseball MVP Hall week-to-week with injury
Tyler Hall, an All-Mid-American Conference Tournament selection and baseball team Most Valuable Player winner from a year ago will be week-to-week with an undisclosed injury.
Head coach Steve Jaksa was unable to comment on the specifics of the injury because of HIPAA laws. HIPAA laws are private federal protections for personal health information.
The third baseman, who had a school record 11 triples last season, led the team in with a .367 batting average, starting all 58 games from a year ago. He also led the team with 84 hits, a .559 slugging percentage, a .470 on-base percentage and 46 runs scored.
Tom Lally has replaced Hall in the lineup. He is 4-for-12 in three games this season, scoring five runs.
“Tommy Lally did exactly what we wanted our number two hitter to do,” Jaksa said of Lally’s weekend performances. “He bunted a little bit, he hit-and-ran a little bit and he swung the bat a couple of times pretty good.”
