Well FWIW we are probably starting our shakiest reliever (Farley) and hve a mix of midweek arms thereafter. Could bring back Brown and Scott if we absolutely had to for an inning or two but may see a lot of runs on both ends tomorrow

Something like each inning you’re competing to see who wins the point for that inning (sort of like sets in tennis) but if the teams tie then nobody gets the point. Normal baseball rules apply to how runs and hits are scored but outs have to be achieved with trick plays or by fans catching foul balls). Pitcher also moves a lot faster because the game is on a clock (I believe) and they will pause the game intermittently for circus acts and guest appearances.

I get why some are curmudgeons about it but it’s a net positive for baseball and kids/families love it so that’s a good thing.

Not that it mater sin he slightest but our RPI is down to 10 now

OP has been updated to reflect the season thus far and man is it fun to look back on right now

Anyone’s game coming off this delay. 3 runs isn’t too much for this squad though I’m now unsure who we would have left to throw tomorrow should we win

Masterpiece

bigD thinks we will face Russell Sandefer (3-2, 4.47 ERA). He started the Sunday game against us and gave up 5 runs on 5 hits over 1.2 innings and 13 batters faced.

Who yall pitching on Saturday?

Definitely Mizzou but I think they get run over by MSU tomorrow; from what I recall playing them earlier, they have exceedingly little bullpen depth and I'd wager they fired most all of their bullets today.

Agreed, don’t think this changes much for them other than where they may end up playing. They’re put together enough to be able to compete wherever they go and they’ll still likely play a team 8-16 (just maybe not 15 or 16 like originally predicted)

Georgia - pretty, but seemed spread out and everything seemed to be on a hillside

Athens was founded on the overlook of the Oconee River. The town and north campus are on the overlook, as campus evolved, it moved down into the Tanyard creek valley (which feeds into the Oconee River to the east of Sanford Stadium) and then back up onto the other side. It’s honestly not that bad if you know where you’re going and how to get there. Of course, if you’re new to town or trying to manage throngs of people on Gameday then you’re likely going to follow crowds around the major road arteries

totally agree that UGA's campus is super hilly. Would hate walking that as a student there. A major drawback

We have the most physically fit student population in the country for a reason. Always felt like LSUs campus was far more spread out than UGA
