[GMUgemini]

Finished the inning with another 3 runs.

11-2 going into the bottom of the 9th.

Hopefully they aren't using up all their offense today. 11-2 bottom of 9th.

Great day to be a Patriot!

Great day indeed.
I realize we see its Northeastern and think its not a P5 school, but they've been a better program than ours for a number of years. They earned an at large bid. This is just our 2nd win in the NCAAs ever so congrats all around. Lets hope we don't have to wait another 30 years before we get win #3......

99%!!?? Maybe in some other sports, but baseball!!?? No way!!

NE was -500... kinda surprising but they were a massive favorite

 

[GMUYoda]

Mason plays the loser of tonight's WF/MD game tomorrow at noon

On another thread the guy admitted his model was struggling to assess the lowest-rated teams in the field.

This was a really good win for the program. Really good.

ESPN+ still saying "weather delay". What happens if their game is rained out? They'd have to play tomorrow and the loser would then play a second game against Mason back-to-back, I'd assume. I'd take any advantage we can get.

HA! They're playing right now!! First pitch was 10:43pm.

OK... I'm gonna channel @GreenLantern here and predict WF over MD 7-6...
...17 innings!

 

[GMUYoda]

4-0 WF already... top 2nd

 

[psyclone]

9-1 Wake after 5 innings.

Announcers now saying that the Loser of the UMd-WFU game (likely the Terps) will play Mason at 2 pm on Sunday and the winner of that game will play a game against the no-loss team immediately following.

 

[Yossarian]

George Mason’s pitcher made a lot of throws during yesterday’s game. I hope he is able to hang in there for at least six innings today.

Most relevant to our prospects is this:
"Win twice or go home. The Terps haven’t been eliminated yet, but they need to run the table to make it to a super regional. First up is a matchup with local foe George Mason, which took down Northeastern, 11-3, on Saturday. The winner of that game earns a rematch with the Demon Deacons later in the day, and if they win that matchup, an additional winner-take-all game will be played Monday. The Terps have also burned through both of their aces, and freshman left-handed pitcher Kyle McCoy is unavailable this weekend."

Looks like it may come down to pitching depth.
