Sucks that Evans missed 1 pitch, Cowan missed 1 pitch, and Ruckert threw a ball away, and they scored on all 3 mistakes

That’s been the story of the year though. Good Teams don’t make one of those mistakes. Great Teams don’t make any of them. This Team is neither of those.

I still am of the mindset that the Tigers can come back and win this game in the 9th. Always will think that until the final out….

But what I said above is fact.

Bump.

No message needed.

it is a grass lot. at times it has been shut due to significant rain and during those times 106 passes are relocated; I believe to or around lot 406, which is around the softball complex. (while due to contraflow 406 does not allow you to leave out north on nicholson-toward the interstate, it does allow you to take a right on river road and go that way-which is sometimes quicker to downtown/interstate anyway.) at least that is what they have done in the past.

there is room to tailgate in this area and in fact many people routinely set up. this area is a popular spot for those that need to get back to lafayette/lake charles or cenla/north la as contraflow allows you to get back on nicholson toward downtown/interstate.

there are generally port a potties set up; and there is one of those mobile restroom facility trailers on the south end of the lot (near bernie mac) that has both male/female facilities and is even air conditioned.

i have seen people leave their tailgate set ups out, and while crime is everywhere, i don't know of any issues, at least no more than anywhere else. I do know that some feed the lot attendants and passing security during the day and "ask" that they in turn keep an eye on everything during the game. also, just like any tailgate area, there seems to always be some members of some tailgate parties that for whatever reason do not go to the game and stay out to watch on tv...

sorry for the rambling... but hope this helps.

THANKS! You made some kids, well ages 21 to 16 so I guess some young adults, very Happy and on had a birthday yesterday!

Looking for two to the 1pm game (and possibly game two) for today. Would prefer Grandstands but open to alternatives.

watched the end of this game... 3-1 top 7, 1 out... runners on first and second... SP hit a line drive to left center two runners on very close together (lead runner on 2b held up to make sure the ball dropped, trail runner on 1b had gone more than halfway)... anyway, they rounded third, both were going to score to tie the game, trail runner tripped and fell down and had to scramble back to third... next batter hard liner to third and a good play by third baseman for the out, next batter fly to center... good game and fun to watch the ending especially when i had no true rooting interest for either team...

that is surprising. Arguably their best arm is hurt and they won three district games total. I didn’t see them winning a playoff series, winning a game was a stretch in my mind…

Actually PHS' best two arms are hurt (for sure 2 of the best 3, who are also the starters at SS and 1B when they are not pitching) and they have another starter out... but they played scrappy these two games and get another week.

yes. very well played game all the way through with each Teams pitchers dealing and opportunities on both sides until the 8th. PHS turned the order over and the top of the lineup came through. Took the air out of Riverdale and got into the bullpen. Ended up batting around. The final score does not show how competitive and good of a high school game this was between two very evenly matched and well coached teams.

Play again today at 4:30

Thanks to everyone for the input and suggestions. We are leaning toward Harbor or Casa Garcia this afternoon and will leave it open for consideration Friday depending on times and such.

Someone had mentioned a place called Big Ez Seafood and Oyster House but I did not see that mentioned here? Any thoughts on that place?

Thanks again; and the Food Board always comes through with good info!

Will be in the area for a HS baseball playoff series at Mike Miley Park (W. Metairie Avenue I believe).

Looking for a casual sit down place for pre-game apps/drinks for Thursday afternoon, timeframe around 3-5 or so; and also recommendations for a sit down post game dinner Friday around the 7pm timeframe. Would like to stay close to the area of the Airport toward Miley park but open to all suggestions...

Thanks for any thoughts/information...
