I heard PM on three different occassions saying they prefer to play at 2, or they had trouble picking up the ball early in the afternoon games because of the shadows. Florida has played every game so far at 6pm in this CWS. They have also had a record amount of strikeouts in this CWS a vast majority coming in the 1st through 4th inning.

It would not surprise me if PM stalls the first hour of this game if LSU batter don't pick up the ball well in the 1st inning. I think we will see several mound visits by Pap and maybe once an inning by Dunn. Hitters may take a little more time between pitches to try to get that shadow moving across the infield.

They need to go into the 4 corners stall offense, ala dean smith.

The game tonight is an hour later, so not as much stalling needed. I don't think full daylight or total darkness could have helped much more against their pitcher last night. His stuff was nasty, to righties especially.

Guess Poche won't be pitching past the 3rd inning then. If you know baseball then you wpuld know that once your pitcher gets a third visit to the mound by a coach they are to leave the game.

Is Florida pitching on a different mound?

It's a shame that LSU doesn't pitch from the shadows in the same game that UF pitches from the shadows. CPM needs to be fired for that.

6pm last night, 7pm tonight and 7pm tomorrow, if necessary

The logic behind that has to be mlb/espn
