NC ace out in the first with an injury. Their only LH reliever now in. Would be nice for the Heels to win this one...

Heimlich chased in the 3rd as well.

If we win today, tomorrow gets real interesting. Especially if we get a long outing with our starter.

Wow. UNC up 6-1 in the third and still threatening. Oregon State is unraveling.

Speaking of grass (which nobody was, but so ....) ... read an article last year that had an interview with the groundskeeper at TD Ameritrade. He requires that Southern players (and maybe all, but he specifically said those from the South) wear new shoes because he doens't want southern grass to contaminate his bluegrass field. Can't really blame him.

Bermudagrass of any variety is a weed there. Might grow in the summer there but would almost certainly die in the winter.

Bermuda in Omaha would be a weed, and do not doubt the grounds keepers ability as TD Ameritrade looks great, but that is very far fetched that enough of a stolon could survive to contaminate his field. I would think the player would be just as upset to have to break in a new pair of shoes on such an important stage.
It would more likely that our Dogs would leave a few banana tree sprouts growing🍌

I think it'd be more than a random stolon. Cleats can pick up a bunch of Bermuda seeds since they're so small, and even though hybrid, there's a decent chance that some seeds are viable, not to mention they might have been in some areas of common.

Regardless ... that's what the article said. And there's no way I could find it again.

As long as the banana trees grow for a couple of weeks, that's fine and all that's needed. The winter can kill them off then. ;0

Pease find me some hybrid Bermuda seed that is viable anywhere pleas I’ll go halves with you on the royalties. Now there might be some common somewhere out there but very little and on a long road trip stored away without any water or light viability is slim even less of a chance for a sprig. I’m just saying it a far fetched idea that it would be a real problem, not that it isn’t a real idea in someone’s mind. That same winter just might get that Bermuda sprig also.
Hailstate and let’s “Dole” out some runs against UW

Lets see if he gets his wish and the team is sporting new shoes tonight, if we can tell. I'm going to see if I can find that article.

Can't find it. I may have read it last time we were there, and that was 5 years ago.
