Wow we had the 3rd highest attendance? Pretty proud of that.

Settle down. There was an O'Brate family reunion at the park last night.

[Beau Vine 54,471]

GaSou leads UNCG 8-0 in 8th.  Pitcher had a perfect game through 6.

Loser scheduled to play Tech at noon.

Cats don't play Stanford until 9 tonight. God damn pacific time zone.

Also, I like the fiction that Stanford is the "away" team at a game played at their home stadium in Palo Alto.

I'm fine with that.  I get to get pregame watching UT-LaTech, then start the Bobcat game with a big buzz already working.

Coin flip. ULL is the home team tonight in college station.

I wonder if ULL has any stupid turditions that they can make the visiting aggys observe?

[Beau Vine 54,471]

Bama State's jerseys with the gigantic hornet just under the huge lettering that says "HORNETS" crack me up.  They're also leading GaTech 2-1 and threatening more.

Yeah well that is what happens at Regionals. Texas will be the "visitors" at their Regional at least once as well.

They may be helluva engineers but they suck at baseball.

Though they are back up 4-2

[OB3 3,629]

I would hate to play at Auburn’s field 

[Beau Vine 54,471]

A day after giving up 23 runs, LIU has already allowed 3 homers to Wake in the T1 and has changed pitchers, down 4-0.

[Beau Vine 54,471]

Gonzaga just gave up 2 runs on a sac fly caught by their second baseman, after he was undercut by the RF.  They're down 3-0 to Wright.

Coppin broke out some terrible uniforms and a 5'9" 155 lb starting pitcher with a 5+ ERA and a 1.67 WHIP.

GA Tech grads, although generally very smart people, seem to think their school excels at basketball and baseball. Maybe in the 80s...

Georgia Tech took what I said personal because they are now up 8-2. Either that or Alabama State ran out of pitching already.

Back when they had Nomah they were pretty good.

Coral Gables Game 1 delayed until at least 5pm.

They should move to the Trop.  Ray are home this afternoon but how long could it take to clear out a couple hundred fans when that's over?

Big 12 pitcher of the year has held UNCG scoreless through 2.

Sunbelt was strong this year. 4 teams in and 3-1 on day 1. 
My buddy at GA ST- ooof- from 10-2 to 15-15. The series with y’all was pretty typical of the back half of his year- y’all swept him for 3 games all 1 run affairs. Couldn’t get over the hump. Really only his 2nd year there. It was a mess when he took over and he’s got it trending in the right direction but so does the rest of the league apparently. 
good luck in the supers to y’all.

Why would they travel all the way across the state?  Did you mean LoanDepot Park, where the Marlins play?

[Valmy77 13,275]

Tech just cannot hit this weekend. Bad time to go ice cold.

Yeah that would make more sense.  I somehow forgot the Marlins also have a roof

[Sbbruin 21,899]

Looks like we’ll get by SE LA.  Auburn will be a tough out though.

[Valmy77 13,275]

TCU can't hit either but just got out of a jam in the 4th.

TCU up 1-0 on Deep Throat Bob.

[Valmy77 13,275]

Wright State up on Gonzaga 9-4.

Why make them leave?  Ask them to stick around, GA seating for everyone. 

[Pato del Muerto 52,623]

I don’t know if tech needed birdsell in order to throw up zeroes against Greensboro, but they definitely needed the zeroes as they haven’t scored either.

I am kind of amazed how punchless they are. Where was this back in March? 

[Gut Wagon 8,087]

Almost a key 2-out hit for Tech. Almost. Still scoreless. 

[Valmy77 13,275]

Oral Bob has em loaded against TCU with two outs.

[Cajun 11,753]

Bob just tied up the Frogs

[Cajun 11,753]

Frogs look ready to hit the beach.

[Pato del Muerto 52,623]

Jung just stuck his leg back into second to try and draw a runners interference. 
 

Runner did a pop up slide and never left the base. 

[Js1 85,612]

Our buddy Galindo in some hot water today

The Marlins have a game this afternoon -- you'd have to deal with TV contract and hundreds of fans being inconvenienced to move that.

And that was the joke...applies to the Rays and Marlins equally

Agreed, even though Lowell didn't actually say anything, he should be fired.  

[Beau Vine 54,471]

Good job, good effort, Greensboro!

Two games today, 0 runs, and GTFO.

[Hookem2147 21,369]

Yeah, Galindo is annoying af and I am not a fan, but he didn’t say anything wrong. All he said was they were missing their starting catcher. Color commentator was the one who should be in hot water.

[HenryJames 66,189]

Have they explained why they were missing their starting catcher?

[Beau Vine 54,471]

He was suffering from stress and anxiety.

[Beau Vine 54,471]

Jesus, I hate Chris Burke.  MoState just hit a 3-run bomb to cut GCU's lead to 7-6 in the 9th.  Burke said that he'd rather have a 2-run double than a 3-run homer there because the homer is a "rally-killer."  

If that were true, MSU's 3rd base coach could just have the hitter stop at 3rd.  If that were true, you'd see GCU's pitcher balk the guy home.  

Lulz, and MSU just hit a 2-run homer to take the lead.

[HenryJames 66,189]

wut

[Valmy77 13,275]

Yeah nothing kills a rally like scoring.

Anyway congrats on Tech advancing to fight another day. Maybe they can find their bats at some point.

[Beau Vine 54,471]

I feel soooooo dirty rooting for ORU.

[Valmy77 13,275]

TCU also survives. We may get the Schlossbowl yet.

C'mon Chippewas. Send Liberty back to their bibles.

I'd hate for Liberty to have to play on the Sabbath.  You can go to hell for that.
