Knew it when it came off the bat. Hit it beyond the bleachers in the outfield. Crushed.

Call me old fashioned but I will always hate turf baseball fields. The infield needs to be dirt.
I feel the same way. As long as State has a turf management program, I do not believe we have to think about this at State.

I hope not. I just don't think it looks as good as a well kept grass field. I also thing the non-dirt warning track is what through Devo off on that fly ball.
I agree. They need to keep the warning track dirt, just for safety reasons.

Josh Hood with a blast off the center field wall for a double.

If a team/school can maintain a grass field, there is no reason to go to turf - most any player prefers grass.

The benefits of turf lay in cost to maintain, weather irrelevant, and general durability/usage.

There's no question what looks/feels better - I'm incredibly thankful we haven't switched over in Soft/Base/Foot.

Like seeing Notre Dame football play on turf is borderline sinful.

It kills me the Panthers converted BoA to turf, but with the high usage its borderline a necessity there now.

The leadoff triple for Louisville would probably have been only a double on a regular grass field. That was a turf triple.

Tommy might wear one next at bat with that bat flip and stare down.

He absolutely mashed that ball.

And Whitaker got it. Change up has been nasty.

Very efficient inning for Whitaker. I think only 7 pitches.

For football, my son plays all of his home games on turf and a lot of away games. As a kicker, he prefers a grass field instead of a turf field. He says his foot is able to come through the grass more easily and he hits a better ball. This year, he will play two away games on grass (State and FSU), but all of his other games will be played on turf.

Nice play by Groover. Excellent double play!

Whitaker gets out easy after the leadoff walk. Only 11 or 12 pitches there.

Man, 8pm start time is killer for me, I'm normally three bourbons in with one foot towards the bedroom by that time. Might have to take a nap beforehand.


We're getting close here. I might need to substitute some coffee after this bourbon.

Would be nice to knock the starter out this inning and make their bullpen throw four innings tonight.

Payton Green has got to lay off of that pitch. He did not have a strike thrown to him and he struck out. He almost made it a great AB but then swung at the same bad pitch.

Whitaker and the defense have been lights out so far tonight.

Logan Whitaker is dealing. Another efficient 10 or 11 pitch inning.

Whitaker has really settled in. Has a good rhythm and has been able to keep the Louisville batters guessing.
