    Yes, we really do. I don’t post a lot, but your updates and the Pack’s play over the last few years have me interested in paying attention to college baseball, which I never did before, even back in the glory days of Tim Stoddard.

    Thanks for the update Wuf’. An excellent fill-in for the Doctor. Actually, you’ve probably bypassed ‘fill-in’ status.

    ^ No offense to the doctor, but I think it’s officially the other way around dating through last season.

    Excellent timing for this post, thank you! Good to get an update pre-ACC – Coming from someone who has a harder time keeping up from a distance, but loves some baseball.

    At the risk of beating this particular horse to death, Rodon is thus far receiving his accustomed level of offensive support.

    Pack finally breaks thru in the 5th, knots the first game with the Irish up at 1 after 5 complete.

    Jake Armstrong’s 2RBI single in the bottom of the 8th is the difference as the Pack takes game one by a 5-3 final.

    Rodon goes the distance (7Ks) to get the win and even his record up at 2-2.

    That’s good news.

    I’m sitting in a downtown office in Jackson, MS. Reading that is just about the most exciting thing I’ve experienced all weekend.

    Yes. Sad. I know.

    Just got back from game one. Very exciting game. Looked to me that Rodon did not have his best stuff and struggled. To show how great a pitcher he is he gave up 9 hits but only three runs. Yes, great defense by the infield but when it came down to crunch time he stepped up. They all did!

    ‘foose needs a sidetrip to Starkville.

    It was great weather for ball today. Quite the pleasant change from every freaking freezing softball game sat through so far.

    As Spring has sprung, so shall Rodon’s location.

    Starkville calls, man.

    Yep. As I recall the past few years, Rodon’s accuracy is a little rough early in the season, so it’s either the weather or he just takes a few weeks to warm up and loosen that arm. Or both.

    Are you referring to Starkville today, or Starkville circa 70s/80s? It’s spring break down here, btw, so if we’re talking Starkville, I would think that would not be an insignificant variable.

    I have a week before I return to RDU.

    Yes, perfect. Fewer peeps around the greenhouses and such.

    Besides,I always found the women of antebellum Starkville to be very interesting. More so than the cowbell clad coed.

    Paki can do the run. A quick little boost on the research farms on campus,

    A stop at any, of numerous, White mansions, load the prettys up, and make way to Jackson.

    Hey. We is talkin’ baseball in this thread, and the college baseball garden of heaven, is smack dab in the middle of the research field of dreams.

    Dudy Noble Field. Yankees know plenty ’bout Mississip.

    Logan Jernigan (7.1 IP, 8Ks) and DJ Thomas combine to blank the Irish 1-0 in game two and sweep the doubleheader. Pack goes for the series sweep tomorrow at 2pm.

    Softball also swept a doubleheader today vs Pitt for their 10th straight win.

    Wuf…I’ll detail later. Just stay clear of that Federal stuff in Oxford.

    All kinds of “secret” stuff resides amongst the cowbells in Starkville.

    BTW. ND is going to be a burr under some Dixie teams’ backside.
    Those Great Lakes area boys play ball.
