1st and 3rd with 1 out, point grounds into double play

I'm not sure on the seating requirements if there are any, but the field needs to have lights, and two batting cages, and some other stuff too. The lights requirement is the biggest hurdle for many locations across the region, and the fields that do have lights are then not affiliated with any local schools so there's always a hassle with getting that all set up and everything.

what a game! this is what you go through all that crap all year long for...oh I can feel the adrenaline flowing on those guys right now!

It has lights, I mentioned it because it is the only school owned field I can think of in the area that has lights. The batting cages I have no clue about. I haven't had a chance to see it since it has been built. And I don't think there are any locker rooms close. The soccer field might have some about a block away and if not then the gym is another block farther away.

locker rooms aren't needed, I think the lights and the double cages are what eliminate most schools from applying for their own field to host. That would be a good spot though, pretty central location (except for the miac schools and CSS)

looks like point is dominating the offensive side of things only to be tied...10 hits to 4, and an uncharacteristic 3 error performance from the tommies! interesting...

Dagger · May 13, 2009, 05:51:28 PM

if point losses this game it will be absolutely crushing to take that lose under those circumstances. You hit the ball well all game, they dont and you play cleaner defensively...just make one mistake and give up a granny to tie it up...

This is just one of those games that could totally deflate a team, or it could totally jack them up also, guess we'll see...I mean Point is going to win anyway so maybe we wont see

does matt schuld have a rubber arm?! 12 ip!!! i guess they don't plan on using him the rest of the week.

looks like arch is having a good day at the dish, good to see him get hot...that will be huge for the pointers.

that 12 innings is on 3 days rest...

13 LOB for steven point...that hurts

BaseballFan · May 13, 2009, 06:13:08 PM

Burning pitchers....

BaseballFan · May 13, 2009, 06:28:32 PM

Tommies definately take a risk by keeping Edwards out there--he has only thrown 6 innings all year. But throwing well it looks like

Ralph Turner · May 13, 2009, 06:56:48 PM

Point and the Tommies are into the 16th!

What does that do their bullpens?

(Serious question... asking for strategies for what just became an 8-team bracket for those two pitching staffs.)

Correction...top of the 17th!
