What is the over/under of the numbers of hours in the tournament that the thermometer will register at higher than 60 degrees Fahrenheit for the entire tourney?   

I'd put it at 9 hours
that sucks.
Updated Weather forecast. Rain, Cold.....

Save 2 flights(Pomona, Chapman).but add 1(Linfield).

.Also it has happen once before....2007 scheduled for Abilene @ McMurry at the last minute due to week long forecasted bad weather its was moved to Orange, CA..

.I just don't see that happening again since Field Turf can take the water...But rain, cold is no fun playing baseball in or watching it either..I hope it clears up and weather forecast changes for Oregon. Weather was beautiful last year after 1 day of rained out games. Warm weather and blue skies in Oregon. I am hoping the later in the week the weather forecast could be the same.

Please, the Linfield regional received nothing but high praise last year and the weather report is going to change as the week rolls along.

Crazy... table for one. Crazy? Crazy?
Baseball is not a game that builds character, it is a game that reveals it.

I agree 100%...Linfield is outstanding venue and we do want the weather to change.......

I am sure it did and will receive rave reviews, as long as it is not 50s and rainy.....

LOL, they had the soccer final four in San Antonio this year, partly because of complaints about cold weather at past final fours .... so of course there were flurries during the first game. 

Weather's gonna be a factor no matter where games are held, sometimes you luck out, sometimes you don't, but it's the same for all the teams so why worry.

That is funny....Soccer in rain/snow/cold flurries is not same as baseball. But your right you could get sunburned without your sunscreen in SoCal.

As a Sagehen fan, speaking strictly on matchups, I personally would much rather see Redlands in a regional than Cal Lu. Redlands has been going through an awful stretch and seems quite vulnerable, while Cal Lu is surging with their horses on the mound finally coming around.

Can't say I know much about Pac Lu or Tex Lu, but they both seem to be playing solid ball right despite some slight falters at the end of the season. Regardless, the West regional appears to be as balanced as its ever been. While Chapman may be a clear 1 seed, they certainly don't stand out as much as they have in previous years, and I think 2-6 (whatever they end up being) are really fairly interchangeable.

This will be a oustanding regional. No dominate team. Chapman has beat and lost to Linfield and Pomona. Texas-Tyler has beat and lost to Mississippi College.  Trinity has lost to McMurry which Chapman beat. Pac Lu if they get in as a #6 also beat and lost to Linfield.

Looks like who ever gets hot for a week can win this. Anyone can beat anyone....I think it will get down to who evers pitches the best after their #1 has thrown will win this.

If it stays like that, I think that is the best case scenario for TU.  I know they would get champan in the first game, but I would like to see Klimesh go against Chapman's #1...we will know where TU stands after the first game.

I like the East meets West flair of the first round.  West Coast teams have generally faired well in those matchups.
