No. They should be allowed to play 2 9 inning games on Saturday as well. The rules are apparently written retardedly since they just assume every series ends on sundays when one series ends on saturday every weekend and all of them end on saturday the last weekend.

Good foresight SEC.


You realize that the rules were written due to travel plans, right?

And you realize that since the series is scheduled to end on Saturday, that the visiting team has plans to leave Saturday, right?

If the visiting team has a flight to catch late Saturday afternoon, then playing on Sunday really isn't much of an option, is it?

Most. But not all.

And by staying until Sunday, you force a team to stay in a hotel an extra night (what if the hotel can't accommodate them?) and feed an entire team for an extra day. The rules are set up to keep series at 3 days...they are uniform and equally applied to everyone. I see no problem.

First of all, yes it would be 2 9 inning games Friday if Thursday gets rained out. Also, the first game must finish before the second game is supposed to start because of CST. So I predict the first game would probably start between 1 and 2 to give them a chance to clear the stadium.

Second of all, Florida didn't charter a flight so they will have an innings curfew on Saturday.

I figured that's why the game was starting at noon.
