Ha! I opened this thread to ask about this. I just saw the national weather map for the weekend and it looked like the area could get as much as a half of a foot of rain. That leads me to think Saturday's game might be postponed/canceled, or pushed back.
That's a lot of water for the field to absorb in this time of the year...
I was selfishly hoping for a Saturday DH... better for my schedule.

Any softball?
Maybe Monday.
Perfect day to play 2…
Lipscomb ain’t getting cheated on their hits today. They’ve squared up some stuff. Lead Bama 6-1 in the 5th.
Who is on the mound for Bama?
Hess started and went 4. Then Buchanan. Now Heiberger just came in. Bama scored 7 in the 5th, UA leads 8-6 now, T6.
Bama back on top. GSHR by Hodo. Solo shot by Lebron.
Lebron is going to be a stud. Kid is a smooth operator. UA up 14-11, T7.

Is this slow pitch softball or baseball? 15-13 bottom of the 8th!!
It has the feel of one of those old school Sunday afternoon games with the live aluminum bats combined with the teams at the end of their pitching depth arms for the weekend.
Bama up 6-0, T4 in game 2.

From Head Coach Rob Vaughn
"Obviously, this was a really long day of baseball, especially if you play an almost four-hour first game and then have to bounce back. You have 40 minutes before you roll back out there and play it again. It was a long day for our kids, but I thought it was a great day overall getting two wins out of it."GAME ONE
