Forecast not only for rain all afternoon but for Sunday and daily through the week.

 

[GoWhereYouGo]

Going to be interesting how Pitt utilizes their pitching staff today. Smink is their closer and he started vs FSU throwing 94 pitches. Leslie pitched the final 3 innings last night and has already thrown over 160 pitches in this tournament.

Looks like a 5PM start time. Is that right?

Got moved to a 3pm start. About to leave Charleston for it although I don’t have confidence it will start on time. The fact that the Pitt game was allowed to play through a lot of rain last night at least gives me hope I’ll see some baseball.

 

[unctarheel1984]

I fully understand the difficult logistics, but I really don’t care. The first game should have been moved up to 9 AM so the second game could start closer to Noon. Playing the game is more important than whether ESPN has a convenient scheduling spot to broadcast it.

Get starting Lynch but also wish we started Boaz given the state of their arms. Extra insurance for a win but Lynch against Tech would be awesome.

I think decaro wasn’t going long no matter what yesterday to potentially have him available Sunday

 

[FreddyB01]

I could be wrong, but I think DeCaro threw over 60 pitches yesterday.

 

[tarheeltyler9]

I could be wrong, but I think DeCaro threw over 60 pitches yesterday.

He threw 55 not saying he’d start but definitely available in a close role like Knapp did in championship last year

 

[unc80]

Let's GO!!

I really like the idea of Lynch, DeCaro, McDuffie for potential GT championship game. We should beat Pitt with Folger and the rest of the Arm Barn.

Pitt site says Antonio Doganiero to start for them. He pitched against us in the Bosh. 6 IP, 3 ER, only one walk, but took the L. Get to the bullpen is the key, IMO.
Edited to add: apparently he started against Louisville and only went 1 and a third on Tuesday. They are stretched thin.

Will you pick me up some Shrimp and Grits? Maybe Chicken and Waffles as well!

Forbes hinted at that in postgame.

OP updated with Pitt pitcher

 

[Chooch]

Take no one for granted, not in this game.

Gabby already dissing Ryan Lynch and talking up Pitt. Dude cannot help himself.

Like Knapp did what in championship game last year?

Ha, saw this too late but I‘ve eaten so much of those foods I don’t even think about them any longer.

Okay, that is just bragging.

 

[TarHeelDad]

Hope the rain holds off. Been wet all morning here in northwest NC. Still only 54 degrees here to boot.

 

[TarHeelDad]

A win today would be icing on the cake to make this a great day. Found out my daughter is the valedictorian of her graduating class this morning.

 

[BadinHeel]

How is the rain situation currently in Charlotte for anyone there? The precip seems to be sporadic depending on where one is.

 

[1vatarheel]

I’m curious if they may try to start this game early

 

[SpencerHaskell]

3:05 first pitch time was what I just heard.

 

[juliancouncil]

Brad Panovich from WCNC just did a video saying that the rain wouldn't start until after 5 p.m. Projected a start between 6:00 and 8:00 p.m.

 

[SpencerHaskell]

1. Schaffner - SS
2. Gallaher - 2B
3. Hull - CF
4. Winslow - DH
5. Nicholson - 3B
6. Howe - LF

It has either been drizzling or downright raining about all day where I am. Thankful for it though as the drought had gotten really bad here.

 

[1vatarheel]

The radar looks favorable for a while. The rain that’s in Augusta now could be a problem if it stays together.

 

[SpencerHaskell]

Pitt going with lefty Antonio Doganiero on the mound (57.1 IP, 4.24 ERA)

Pitched game one of the series against UNC in Chapel Hill to the tune of 6.0 IP, 6 hits and 3 runs

 

[FowlHeel]

Pitt is riding a high right now. Jump on them early, and snatch their soul.

 

[HONKYTONKTARASSOCIATION]

UNC will win 8-3

 

[Malachidad05]

Let's go, boys!!!!

Lynch not missing any bats this inning

 

[sweetcaroline1874]

Pitt can really hit the ball, I had kind of forgotten that unfortunately.

 

[BlueHeels02]

not great
