The Kansas offense scored a lot of runs and showed its muscle, but it didn't impress Kansas coach Dave Bingham.
Even after his team produced football-like numbers in a 21-5 Kansas victory against Grandview College yesterday at Hoglund-Maupin Stadium, he still was skeptical.
"We still need to swing the bat better," Bingham said, even after watching his team score in every innings. "The best thing about today was we actually got to ploy."
Bingham was referring to his team's layoff. The Jayhawks, 4-4, had not played since Feb. 20 in a 5-3 loss to Arkansas.
"We definitely showed some signs of a 10- or 11-day layoff," Bingham said.
Although the Jayhawks were bating an anemic .239 entering the game, they amassed 22 hits on their way to scoring 21 times.
Splittorff, 3-0, picked up the victory but gave up five runs in six innings. He had entered the game with a 0.69 ERA but was the victim of nine Nike hit
Sophomore pitcher Jamie Splittorr received plenty of offensive help in the home-opening victory for the Jayhawks.
It didn't matter. The day belonged to the Kansas offense.
"No one worries when Splittorf is out there." senior catcher Kent
Mahon also contributed to the offense.
He hit a solo homer in the first inning on the way to collecting two hits. But even with his productive day at the plate, he was not impressed with the offense.
Mahon said. "We're happy that this was Grandview and not Oklahoma State."
"Coach told us after the game that there was some room for improvement," he said. "Our offense still isn't strong. There's a lot of guys who haven't found their stroke yet."
Mahon also blamed some of the team's troubles with the bat on the weather. The Jayhawks' two-game series against Arkansas-Little Rock was canceled, and the Grandview series, originally scheduled for two games, had one game canceled, as well.
"The most encouraging thing was that we got to face another team and see some live pitching," Mahon said. "We were getting tired of facing ourselves. It was getting pretty rough. We just need to play five or six games in a row and get our repetitions down."
After Splitorf exited, sophomore pitcher Scott Tittrington came in.
He gave up two hits and struck out five in three innings.
The hardest part of the day for Titrington may have been when he came to bat in the ninth inning — his first at-bat of the year.

"It's nice to have the chance to bat," he said. "I wanted to swing, and I'm glad he didn't walk me."
