quote:Agreed - I don't know if there is a provision in NCAA baseball to have the umps huddle with both coaches and tell them to speed it up. I know there is a 30 second rule - didn't look like it was enforced tonight or is that only for the batter?
I am not sure if Childs was trying to keep our hitters out of rythym or try to frustrate our fans. It should not take a 8 1/2 inning ballgame 3 hours and 16 minutes to complete. It was almost typical of a Redsox/Yankee matchup where a 9 inning game runs around 4 hours.

In SEC play, the pitcher has 20 seconds btwn pitches unless the batter asks for time and it is granted.
I think you are correct. There was no enforcement to keep the game moving along freely. Once a team is down by 5 or 6 runs, what good does it do to stall ? I could understand if the game was tied in the 9th with the bases loaded, and the pitcher was laboring a little bit. If the game is on the line, it might make sense for the pitcher to collect himself and make sure he gets the signs correctly, then pitch the ball.
