Baseball brackets aren't easy to construct on the fly. We're in the same boat they are.

I would think they could have 6-, 7- and 8-team regional bracket templates.

Well, by 2 in the afternoon it's a different story. But at 2 ... sorry, 3 a.m., when they were released, I am more than forgiving about that type of thing.

BC will play Methodist at 10:30 AM Wednesday.

The loser of that game will face #1 seed Emory.

Could this be anymore confusing or flat out dumb???

What ever happened to a simple 7 team double elimination bracket? If the concern is fairness - ISN'T that the reason for seeding? I'm not any type of expert but this creates all kinds of problems of not knowing when a team will play next or who they'll play against until that days games are complete.

somebody get me straight!

The rationale is to keep any one team from having a huge advantage in pitching.  For the most part, by the final game, both teams will have played a similar number of games.

[Pat Coleman]

I think part of the motivation is to keep teams from facing each other twice before the championship, no? I think that's what I got out of the explanation in the handbook of the various scenarios.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Bridgewater-Methodist game will not be available (live) through the internet.  All I know is that it will be broadcast locally here in Harrisonburg on ESPN 1360.

Because of that, I've gotten permission to do a live scoring update page on www.bridgewater.edu.

If in fact there isn't a broadcast via the internet, would people be interested in me doing this page and updating it throughout the contest?

Sorry if it's confusing ... but it's the only way i know to quickly post what happens ...

Alright, back to my listening and notes!

[A.G.]

Thanks...
...a shame the NCAA is too cheap to have the set-up for Live Stats.

wow! that is a high scoring game! anyone who saw it care to share details. I saw that BC had 6 errors! Sounds like a sloppy game with a lot of hitting. I figured the Eagles had gotten hot at the right time and were poised to make a run through regionals. I hope they can hang in there against #1 seeded Emory.

It's the responsibility of the host site for the regionals, just like the first two weekends of the basketball tournament and the first four rounds of the football playoffs.
