We need the green weenies to lose right?

Yes they are 18-40 on the season playing for the American championship

Yea. Winning means a stolen bid

[RaginScotsman]

ECU answers w/ 4 of their own in the bottom of the 1st. Still batting.

That makes it even more enjoyable to pull against them f ers

The only downside to Tulane losing is that it will affect our RPI. The teams in the 45 -> low 50's are very tightly packed. A ranking spot could come down to .0001 or .0002. We are basically tied with #46 Arizona (less than .0001 separation). #51 UC Irvine is a mere .0018 behind the Cajuns. #52 Mississippi State is only .0022 back. Not that the Bulldogs are a thread to be selected to the field ... but the Cajuns want as high of an RPI ranking as possible.

My goodness, after one inning, the poster child for single elimination conference tournaments. 7 runs, 4 hits, 3 errors and 3 LOB combined.

So Brian, do we still want the weenies to lose all things considered

I will be good with Tulane losing and UL winning.

Certainly. We are talking about a stolen bid. I noted this yesterday ... that Tulane must lose today.

Go Ec!!

[ZoomZoom]

Tulane starter had 41 pitches in first, that’s a good sign. Just heard he threw 108 3 days ago.

ECU’s pitcher is at 37 thru 2.

[CajunVic]

He’s not the pitcher anymore for tolame today.

in 2000 there were ten current, past or future sun belt members in the field
