Weather not promising, but looks like we will play. At worst, I think we'll get two games in, but it could be as damp and cool as it was on Wednesday night.

First pitch is at 6pm as Tech hosts Tulane in a weekend series. Tulane swept UMASS Lowell in their opening series and beat Nichols on Wednesday. It’s gonna be chilly, which seems to be how the Bulldogs like it. RF tickets should be available + free standing in the LF dorm area.

Looks to stay hot? How 'bout just staying warm. This ain't baseball weather.

Go Dawgs!

Burroughs said they will play a DH of two 7s Sunday if there are weather issues tomorrow.

Both teams have midweeks Tuesday and Wednesday this week, so no way they will play two 9s Sunday.

2 out single off Fincher, and then Corona threw a curveball into the turf on the stolen base attempt to advance the runner to third. Fincher got a grounder to McLeod to get out of the inning.

Two walks with a wild pitch in between, but Corona struck out to end the 1st.

0-0 after 1.

Getting here a little late. Anyone know the temperature tonight?

Around 40 at first pitch. A little drier than Wednesday night.

1 out single for Tulane, but Fincher gets the next two batters. No replay review available as Tulane would have liked to have seen on the third out.

Myers doubles into the left field corner to open the 2nd for Tech.
Wallace fly ball single down the left field line advances Myers to third.
Elliott strikes out swinging.
McLeod grounds into a 6-4-3 double play to end the 2nd.

Still 0-0.
