Reminder: Baseball Opener and Women's Hoops

[Wufpacker]

I know we’re all still stinging from last night @’Cuse. I myself have avoided the interwebz since the final horn last night until this very moment.

But don’t forget that BASEBALL STARTS TODAY!!!! So things can’t be all bad. No TV, but the radio play by play is being broadcast (allegedly without the need for subscription since WKNC will be otherwise engaged….keep reading) on GoPack.com All Access.

Also, I’d be remiss if I didn’t toss a reminder that our Women’s Hoops team is having a phenomenal year. Currently 22-3 (9-2 ACC) and ranked #10 nationally, first year head coach Wes Moore and his upstarts welcome 17th ranked Carolina to Reynolds Coliseum at 3:30pm. If you can’t get there in person, the game is televised on ESPN2 today (radio on WKNC…see, you thought I forgot about that, didn’t you?)

The world didn’t end last night (though it did feel like it briefly) and our other teams are deserving of the support folks.

I will tune in ESPN2 at 3:30. I nominate this for game thread.

[Wufpacker]

Works for me.

Just looked at weather re: baseball opener…you guys are still kinda chilly, but at least it looks to be dry.

Supposed to be mid 80s here today (cue the eff you Wuf comments…hehehehe 😛 )

[BJD95]

Eh, go stalk some Fighten’ Sendeks co-eds, why dontcha? LMAO

[Wufpacker]

Where do you think I was on the bike this morning?

I ain’t no dummy.

[Wufpacker]

According to GoPack.com All Access, streaming video of today’s baseball opener will also be subscription free.

[Wufpacker]

^Apparently the video link is bogus.
Pack already down 1-0 btw.

Check that…video just came up.

[Wufpacker]

Pack down 2-0 after 3.
Rodon struggling with location a bit.

[TheCOWDOG]

Gimme some live stats, brother. Can’t pull nuthin up on Android.

Where they got the Jakester?

Field and order.

[Wufpacker]

Fincher in CF, batting 5th….

Turner SS
Austin C
Ratledge 2B
Riley LF
Fincher CF
Cavanaugh 1B
Shepherd DH
Knizner 3B
Suggs RF

Not sure about stats. I’m not scoring it today and gametracker is a no show.

Now 3-0 after 4 and a half.

[Wufpacker]

I do know Turner is 2 for 3 so far.

[TheCOWDOG]

Yep.
Hate the move to center ..but in no means catastrophic.

The five hole is where he belongs
Hope to see plentiful RBI from there.

Rodon will struggle with location for the first few as well rounded sports guys like you, and several others already know.

No need for pompous preaching in this post…yet.

Hey, I played allotta ball against that Griff 1B’s old man. He was quite a pitcher.

[Wufpacker]

3-0 after 6

Suggs (rf) has speed and what appears to be a damn fine cannon (accurate too).

[Wufpacker]

Rodon done for the day, Woeck tossed the 7th and looked very good doing it.

[TheCOWDOG]

Excellent news on Suggs…Finch belongs in CF in that case. It was pretty much inevitable.

[Wufpacker]

Griffs’ ace on the hill ain’t no slouch.
Aside from Turner, he’s given most everyone else fits.

[Wufpacker]

Turner now 3 for 4.
Bunt single to lead off the 8th.

[BJD95]

Not looking like our weekend, it seems. Nor has it been much of a century, for that matter.

[Wufpacker]

Woeck tossed an effective 8th, btw.
Turner gets his first steal of the year, but ends up stranded at 2nd.

3-0 bad guys after 8.

[Wufpacker]

Pack drops the opener 3-0.

Turner still looks like Turner, with both bat and glove (and wheels too).
Woeck looked tremendous.
Rodon shaky with location some, but still overpowering for the most part.

[BJD95]

The hoops womenfolk are having a rough go at the outset, too.

[Wufpacker]

Hopefully they’ve awakened now.

I think we should commission a set of these unis for the men’s team.

[BJD95]

Don’t we lose this “Hoops for Hope” game like every year? Doesn’t seem right!

[RaisedByWolves]

We’ve lost it the last few years, but we lost most games the last few years.

[RaisedByWolves]

How many fouls does Gatling have? Two?
