Well darn. I'm already well into my cocktails. Even opened some Savage Rye for this game. Just one bottle left at Youngsville ABC as of an hour ago if anyone's interested.

I knew as soon as they put the tarp on postgame it would be a while.

Need about 45 minutes of prep time to flip games once tarp is finally off.

There wasn't enough to overturn IMO based on the angles that were shown.

You just CANT get picked off on a leadoff walk to the start the game.

especially after an infield single

Probably was out but definitely not enough to overturn. You can't see the inside part of the bag where his hand hit

Dude got two outs realistically. Quick half here and bury them.

Really wish we could pull 89 down the middle into the power alley they have in RF but whatever.

Yes, I know it happens, but if Rett had not slipped, this inning could have been early curtains for USF.

Ball was crushed. Wiggins looked lost tracking it.

Just brutal conditions for a pitcher. Weather delays and I'm sure it's really muggy. Gonna need Nance to settle in.
