We are up right now in the top of the 4th inning 4-2. Gave up some runs early aided by 2 errors and some walks but right now Solbach seems to be mowing them down.

I like how this weekend is starting for us.

CCU picked up a nice win over TCU this afternoon.

A nice win indeed! Tommy Busey just tripled down the line to bring in the 5th run. Now 5-2 with 1 out in the 4th. The bottom of the order seems to be doing most of the damage right now.

Now we are rolling. 9-2 still in the 4th.

Sweet...
...nice to see them get off to a hot start. Any idea as to whether they are going to try to double up on Saturday, with the lousy forecast for Sunday?

Any word on radio coverage? I think the Sunday game was supposed to be broadcast before they moved the game to today

LU struggling a bit in the second clinging on to a 6-5 score. The bats seem a little silent with only 4 hits. Most of the runs were on walks and errors.

hey that collar around home plate doesn't look that bad, did they re-do it?

I was thinking the same thing Medic. I haven't been on campus since Wednesday but it was still royal blue then.

New unis look nice.
