Starrett Shifts Spring Baseball Practice Outdoors
Starrett moves varsity baseball drills outdoors as rain subsides and ground firms up at the coach Rabbitt Starrett field. Rosy Starn’s football squad practices on the field while pitchers, catchers, and infielders begin bunting and pepper drills indoors then switch outside. Six pitchers, three catchers, seven infielders, and six outfielders join the early outdoor sessions with two pitchers heading toward starting roles after spring football ends this weekend. Regular batting practice starts after April 30 when Toledo University visits.
