What's up with some schools using the double bag at 1st base? Is it up to each school or this like a testing phase for it? I see it in use in Chapel Hill & Charlotte, but not at HPU.

I think its to avoid collisions. Are they different colors?

Edit* It is in the testing phase but not mandatory (online info)

Is Zamora one that has a lingering injury? Not in starting lineup. Either he is hurt or we are extremely loaded. Maybe both.

Pretty sure Zamora is one of them. Weird to see Braxton Church in right and welcome back Caleb Cross. Let's go App!

This ump is trash. Little finds the plate yet continues to call balls.
Huge double play to get out of a jam after 13 straight “balls”
1-1 tie game. B5

He was all over the plate, but couldn't get a call. The DP is still a pitcher's best friend. We need to start hitting their pitching.

It’s early, but Kramer could be that guy!

But then we pinch run for him. I don't like it and now the lead us shrinking.

Hard to beat anybody when you have 15 Ks through 8 innings.

First 3 guys that pitched today were from last year. Not sure that’s a good sign.
Liam Best on now in the 9th. 1st newcomer arm in a high leverage situation.

It’s the first game don’t put too much stock in anything. Assess everything in two weeks. Let the kids get their footing.
