Dave didn't say, but there were 3 different waves of about 12 former players simultaneously throwing out the first pitch. He did say they were from all generations dating back to Dawgs who played in the 1950s.Originally Posted by falcon

It's amazing that we didn't get more damage in the top of the 5th with the bases loaded and nobody out for Fresno.
About as good as you can ask for.
If Johnson makes the play on the foul ball in the 3rd inning and Roliard makes the throw to 1B on the sac bunt, then Tech leads 2-0 after 5 innings... Gotta make the plays.
If anyone is wondering what a 6-4-3 or 4-6-3 double play is. Here's all you need to know.
