Yes, I was expecting one of our larger and electric crowds tonight. Seemed to be a lot of interest...

That's what I'm most ticked off about! It was going to be an absolutely huge crowd tonight and everyone in town knew we were coming off a beat down of UT and a 9 game win streak. Now you place it on May 10th, sanwhiched between 4 other home games and LaTech the night before? We already had plenty of games that week at home. Fans have been itching to get back to the park with all these away games. I think we screwed the pooch on this one. Bullpen strategies notwithstanding.

We will have packed houses for all of our remaining home games ... it's just what we do.

Postponing this game last night was the best thing that could have happened.

Saving arms for the weekend and we want to play this game with Jack Burk available.

May the 10th is not guaranteed. Play them when they are scheduled and not pick the days when you think the pitchers are ready. Not a drop of rain fell nor lightning strike, and it's still not raining. That's my opining just like many say it was great to cancel it.......

[MelRock]

Yes and if McNeese gets on the bus to come here and it storms and the game is cancelled, it guarantees the game will not be played. There is no guarantees with the weather. Our second back to back weeks with 5 games and before that the trip from hell. This game being canceled is the best thing that could happen for the team. We have ever pitcher available for this weekend, with a possible doubleheader. We need all hands on deck. Sorry if it inconvenienced some of you.

Well I did want to drink beer and watch baseball at the Tigue last night. I settled for watching Boston v. New York from my couch. I'll live.

Agreed. Moving the game was easily best for the team before trip to UTA... for multiple reasons.

Speaking of doubleheaders, what does weather look like this weekend in Arlington? Doubleheader Saturday? With additional game Friday or Sunday?

Ha, I know, we ended up a Legends watching Boston/NY and the Kentucky/Mercer game. Just think, all of the brick work should be done on the outside of the Tigue. The inside is coming along nicely.

That sure is a purty sight.

Weather does not look good for Saturday, so more than likely doubleheader on Sunday. Possible 11 AM start on Sunday to play two or play two on Friday, with one on Sunday. The only reason I say the second option is because exams start on Monday for us and I am sure they want to get back early. On the flip side they may want to take the chance on the weather on Saturday before scheduling doubleheader on Friday. Who knows right now, but I am sure all options are open.
