several teams starting with 4-game series

nothing wrong with that...

but it does tie your RPI closer to your opponent

for better or for worse
I really like what LSU does from time to time where they essentially have a 4 team round robin at their place on a non-con weekend. I'd like to see at us do some of that.

rough start to the Big 12 era for Arizona (0-3)

winless at Globe Life
Zona lived and died on their weekend rotation last year... And all 3 of those gifts are gone. I was really surprised by the preseason ranking.

Update: Rebels appear to be useless as usual
This Ole Miss team is even worse than they were last year. Likely going to finish dead last in the sec
The baseball gods saw this post, Ole Miss is all over #15 Clemson so far this afternoon.

Wake tops Marist by 3 scores, 24-6.

Wake scoring four games so far: 14, 11, 14, 24. Yes in a bandbox but that's still quite offensive.

For those who have been to both, which college classic is better for fans? The Astros one or the one in Arlington?

I've been to the one in Houston many many times, and went to the one in Frisco. Both are pretty fun.
The one in Arlington is better for the fans. The ballpark in Houston does not have a heating system, and unless you get real lucky with a warm day, it's surprisingly cold.

Tournaments at minor league parks are much better in my opinion. The stadium is right sized for the crowd.

We played in the Round Rock Classic at Express Stadium back in 2021 & I thought it was great. We should play in that one again.

not very competitive in Puerto Rico

That program has fallen off a cliff since that regional in 2014. It is pretty sad because it was a program. I always really enjoyed watching and it was a really fun/classy baseball rivalry for a while there.

And indoor baseball mostly sucks. And artificial turf baseball mostly sucks. I know it's still cold-ish in most of the country but still not really a fan. The AA and AAA stadium vibe is so much better as well.

This is a nice play but

1) how much air did he put on that ball?
and 2) how slow is that batter?

Last one for now. I'm not sure if they were playing cricket or what but this is something else



36 R on 24 H and only 3 E seems almost impossible. And then I read the box and saw that W&M issued 17!!! walks, 3 WP, 1 balk, 3 HBP, and 7 HR against in 7 innings.

22 R on 16 H and 4 E isn't great either. URI issued 12 BB, 2 WP, and 3 HBP.

by the way...

how did the Sooners avoid A&M, Arkansas, Florida, and Tennessee on their conference schedule?

Their softball will continue to be very good, but I think their baseball program takes a step or two back, at least in the short term.

800 is a good crowd for February (heck, any month) in Norman. Crappy park. Crappy fan base.

They had 4800 vs tu last year, and over 12k for the weekend vs tu. Granted, that was the last weekend in April but still that is pathetic.

Looking at their media guide, because I'm extremely bored and don't way to pay for FloSports, only 1 of their Top 25 Attendance games was in March and that was versus in-state rivals Cowpokes. All the rest are April, May and June and range from 3000 to 4800. But even so they still had 2K every game opening weekend last year. and averaged 2500 over 31 games.

Not great by any metric, but under 800 is very bad even for them. Even their mid-week attendance last year looks to typically be 2x that number. Guessing this was mostly weather related since it's been mid-20s and wintry mix most of the weekend.

Talk about a welcome gift to the conference.

Didn't find one what I was looking for so... Based on my other posts this weekend I'm sure it's full of errors.

This was called a check swing with two strikes and two outs….just before Texas erupted for 8 runs in the fifth.

This is a really neat feature by okst baseball. I think it's just a live video steam on twitter of the scoreboard, but it works great.
