Youthful Kansas baseball pounds Omaha
Kansas coach Ritch Price led a 23rd season and a notably young lineup in an 11-1 home opener win over Omaha. Freshmen filled six starting spots as pitcher Ryan Zeferjahn delivered three solid innings with a 94 to 96 mph fastball, showing promise but nearing a predetermined pitch limit. Price noted Zeferjahn could have been a high draft pick with a bigger signing bonus, if not for his KU commitment.
