Very hard to hit it out of the park in this weather.

Or instead of fly outs, some drives down the line or in the gap would be nice. Have made solid contact but right at someone.

Bases loaded single. ECU 3-1 now.

Gaines has some work to do to toughen up this pitching staff. They have not thrown well at all in pressure situations as a group.

Clutch hitting ties it up and still threatening

They decided to listen to you and then the rain came.

Haha...pitching change made a big difference too. Lot easier to hit 90 on the ground than 93 which gets in on your hands really quicky.

I understand not wanting to give our batters a third look at the starter, but sometimes managers over think these things. The starter still looked really good.

I agree. Overmanaging is rampant in college baseball. We do a fair amount of it too. My single biggest critique of Coach Forbes though is the nonstop challenges of umpire calls. We challenged a call up 9 runs in Greenville and I wanted to scream. We have to see that same crew all weekend and that's just dumb in my opinion. I really don't know why we do that.

Looks like the game ends in a tie. Does that mean our record is 6-1-1 now, or is the game no contest since it didn't go 7 innings?

6-1-1

Dang. Well, good thing we got those two runs back in the B5 before it ended!

Game is a tie, series is a tie.

Game is a tie, series is a tie.

I say the series tie breaker should be total run differential. We win the series 16-13.

We’ll get to settle this on the diamond when they are our three seed in June.
