I understand but Champion has more Homers than Brown

Yes. I’ve got a friend who umped some San Jac games. He told me they trottted out pitcher after pitcher throwing 95+. Of course they went Juco route looking to be drafted as early as possible

He just started throwing again around the beginning of spring. He’s assigned to a summer league team and I’ll track him to see if he pitches there.

I’ve heard Henry will get a good shot at the rotation next year as well.

And there’s always a chance that Cumbie and/or Fletcher come back. If they don’t like where they’re drafted or can’t work out something with whoever drafts them
might see them again next year. Same goes for Joe Davis.

Doubtful, but you never know.

And
of course, this one isn’t over yet. Big Joe Davis cuts it to 3.

That’s it for Pulido. Dylan Lester on to pitch.

Single scores 2 more, runners on the corners

Walk loads the bases. K ends the inning.

T9
UNC leads 19-11

Shouldn’t have taken Kyle out.

Gonna be awhile. Huge lightning storm coming in.

UNC head coach is not happy.

That explains why the UNC fans kept booing when Bartlett went to the mound.

Funny thing is, the rule is to suspend play when lightning is within 10 miles an it’s currently within 7. Yet, on Friday night when that rain storm was hitting in the middle innings, I was watching the weather and there was lightning within 5 at a few points
never suspended the game.

This will be the lightning delay game that will go down in Coog lore for the ages as it was a symbol of Cougars catchin’ lightnin’ in a bottle.
