Would have like to seen what they would have done against CCU. Looks like they have played a decent schedule so far.

They might do Friday and Sunday (although with the women's tournament this weekend itll be an interesting call for the folks at FSN) but I think at least one of the two games Saturday would bump up against the semifinal game

correct. Sunday usually is on 90.9.

It's gonna be a great weekend. The guys have played hard. Get out and support the team. I will be there Friday and Saturday.

If they did both on Sunday (baseball and the Big South final), unless they have another unit, he will probably have to go off the phone line (although Ive used the unit they use for that and its pretty decent quality)

yeah, the 3-run double was the turning point of the game.

Our Flames are red hot! Come on out tomorrow and cheer them on!

Impressive performance all the way around today. We continue to get timely hitting and solid pitching and defense. Hansen threw gas just like he did years ago and we smacked him around pretty well. Nigg's saved the bullpen, which was huge with this 6 games in 6 days stretch coming up.

I noticed Mike Rob came out in the 8th, i'm hoping it was just to rest him because we were up big, did Nick say anythign on the broadcast? We can't afford to keep losing guys at this clip. Coach said that Cox was still day to day and Graeur would be back pitching by next weekend, but couldn't catch for another 3 weeks.

He got injured after stealing a base. He did stay in the game though until he came around to score, so it is very likely precautionary. I was there.

Alright that does it. I'm coming to see a game before this season is over. if I have to drive to an away game i will. i've never seen this team so qued up this early in the season. we are tied with an undefeated Kentucky team for #1 in total wins in the nation and its got me excited. We're #13 in runs per game right now. and i think thats before the SJU game so we might be even higher. I hope i'll be able to watch some games online like last year. do we have a broadcast for home games on the school website that is not the bigsouth broadcast?

Warmer nachos than in the Vines, and they have hot dogs (WV style--with chili & cole slaw) and salted peanuts in the shell and hot chocolate (for those cold, windy games).

I haven't been this year but they normally have one of the better hot dogs I have had. A lot better than the one UVa a few weeks ago. Today maybe be a Dickey's day for me.

Are they playing two 9 inning games today? I thought college went 7 inning in DHs?

Same count in the Top of the 8th.

An Andy Smith solo HR in the 6th is the difference right now.
