I left during the rain delay

Drove back to Jax, figured (correctly) that the delay would go hours. Walking out next to an FSU fan, I told him we’re both going to miss an amazing comeback. You shoulda seen the look he gave me.

Some thoughts:

Average stadium, great fans. However, they were very impatient with small’s pace of play. I’m sure there will be wailing that his slowness and all the mound conferences cost them the rain delay and thus the game.

The “animals” are a bunch of old dudes who were great. Almost too much like softball fans, and annoying to a visitor. But you’re supposed to annoy visitors. They were into the game but I think sometimes their singing/cheering got into their own players’ heads.

It was criminal that they put Parrish back in after 2.5 hours. Just heard he pitched 133 pitches. That’s nuts. We’d be out of our minds if Henderson did that.

Oh, it was hot. So hot. I left a few lbs there in a puddle.

Being a little bit superstitious, I have no regrets about leaving. No way we win if I stayed ;) You’re all welcome.

Nope. Phone started blowing up on my drive when we won. Seminoles don’t have a baseball radio network, either.

He was pretty good those first 132 pitches.
