It's parents weekend. I highly doubt you'll see a double header
The parents only stay for five innings. They won't care.
Whoever in the AD keeps asking that we schedule a home series for parent's weekend needs to be fired.
Isn't parents weekend scheduled well in advance and the SEC dictates the series schedules?
Also, it is Chilifest weekend and a large track meet weekend. Too much for one weekend! But, some of it isn't in A&M's control.
Schools can request to play at home, or not play at home, certain weekends. That doesn't mean the request will be granted, but the number of times we have played on parents weekend (I can only think of a couple of times in recent memory where we haven't) tells me that the AD consistently requests a home series that weekend. Maybe that's being directed from elsewhere, but it's stupid.
For baseball player parents and season ticket holders from out of town, it's a real hardship because hotels are scarce and expensive.
