Baseball team takes to the practice field
By John Wilson sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter
Coach emphasizes defensive strategy
The Kansas baseball team started full-squad practices inside Anschutz Sports Pavilion last week.
Head coach Bobby Randall said he was stressing conditioning and defensive fundamentals early during the season.
"The bulk of our time is spent going over specific fundamentals like throwing form and picking up ground balls," Randall said. "It's best to make the game small and then relate those skills to the big picture."
Anschutz is a 40,000-square foot, arc-like indoor practice area with an AstroTurf field nearly the size of a football field in the middle, surrounded by a rubber, dirt-colored track. Intermittent lighting spits a hazy glow from a cream-colored ceiling, making fly ball drills impossible.
Randall said that position players were working on ground balls on the AstroTurf and with swinging fundamentals in the batting cages. He said pitchers were conditioning their arms and bodies for the 56-game regular-season schedule.
"We have 13 pitchers who have to be ready by Feb. 13," Randall said. "This team should be able to score runs, but to win, we'll need pitchers to throw strikes."
"You have to watch out for balls, or they'll catch you not paying attention," catcher Josh Dimmck said. "You can really only work on files outside."
"Our defense has to get better,and we've spent more time this year learning how to react in the field."
Pitcher Mark Corson said veteran players like Dimmick, relief pitcher Casey Barrett and second baseman Andy Juday

"We've got a bunch of guys back who played last year all over the field," Corson said. "That depth of experience could help us jump out of the middle of the pack in our conference."
Randall said fielding hurt the team last year during key situations. Despite having spent four seasons as a second baseman for the Minnesota Twins, Randall said he had not translated this knowledge well to his team.
Corson said that speed and hitting were the strengths of this squad, but that keeping runs off the board would decide the team's fate.
would make the team better during clutch situations.
"We'll only win the tough games against the traditional powers like Oklahoma State and Wichita State if we slow them down with our pitching and fielding." Corson said.
"I haven't done my job," Randall said. "Our defense has to get better, and we've spent more time this year learning how to react in the field."
About 115 Special Olympics athletes attended the Jayhawks' annual basketball clinic, now in its 10th year, which allows children and adults with developmental disabilities to play with Kansas players.
"In college baseball, everybody can hit. The team that makes it to the NCAA tournament can defend too," he said.
The clinic featured basketball drills, five-on-five scrimmages with the Jayhawks and a half-hour autograph session.
BASKETBALL NOTES
Kansas coach Roy Williams said everyone involved walked away with some good memories.
Two "100 Years of Kansas Basketball" banners, and the banners of Danny Manning and Lynette Woodard, were anonymously shipped to Kansas Friday, said Darren Cook, Kansas director of facilities.
"I think the best thing is that our kids feel like they're doing something for the community." Williams said. "I think that they get as much out of it as the Special Olympians."
The return address was Champaign, Ill., home of the University of Illinois. Police there told Cook that some fraternity members came to Lawrence and stole the banners as a prank. Police said there were rumors the thefts could have been retaliation against some Kansas students who store items from the Illinois Athletic Department.
Kansas reordered the banners at $600 each, and the banners were hung in time for Wilt Chamberlain's jersey retirement ceremony at the Kansas State game Jan. 17.
Doug Moreau, Baton Rouge, La., district attorney, said last week that Kansas forward Lester Earl may have broken the law by signing documents at Louisiana State that said there were no violations during his recruitment to the school.
Filing any false document could amount to filing a false public record, which is a violation of state law. Any coach at LSU that may have signed those papers also could have violated the law.
No public action has been taken, but Kansas officials are upset that LSU made the details of Earl's case public. They claim LSU is trying to deflect blame for alleged NCAA rules violations onto Earl.
