Good grief. Just looked at the MAC tourney bracket and have they ever made it easy for the #1 seed to win this thing. If we don't win it, we don't deserve to. For us or MU, it will just take 2 wins to get to championship series. And our 1st game will be against the lowest seeded 1st round winner. We aren't that good, but this thing is set up for us.

Flashes lead 8-4 in ninth, CMU has bases loaded and one out.

Edit: 8-7 one out.

Edit: FLASHES WIN!

I wish they would get rid of the tournament now that the MAC is down to 10 teams. Every team plays a round robin schedule so I don't see the need or purpose of the tournament now. Today was a decent game but it just puts more wear on the team.

Be grateful it’s not a single elimination tournament. I’m sure it’s coming. North Americans in particular don’t even watch regular seasons in all sports. We could play each team 10 times and they would still want a tournament. Look what they have done even with NCAA golf, PGA golf, NASCAR, etc. They all want sudden death championships. Sucess over the long haul means nothing.

Kent vs Miami is about to start. Loser of this game has to face CMU who is 3-1 so far in the tournament. They will be a tough team to beat tomorrow.

More daunting than CMU, the loser of this game will have to win 3 to win the title. This is a must win.

Kent leading 6-0 after 6.

Eli on the hill tomorrow. Win and were in!

Miami is on top 9-8 going into the 6th vs CMU. Whoever Kent faces will be very short on pitchers.

Maybe CMU can tie it up and they can go 12-13 innings? It’s 80°+ in Avon today.

Looks like rain likely sometime after 5:00.

I just got into Avon and a light rain has started no thunder or lightning yet.

TWC radar looks nasty until about 7:00.

According to the MAC Twitter, weather delay with a new start time of 7:45.

Guess it's time to use the free week offer for ESPN+.

Can I just throw in here that the MAC website sucks? Is this thing made to be read on a cellular phone or is it just put together by someone with no talent for the idea that people browsing it might be looking for information?

7-0 good guys lead. 5th inning.

The MAC page is terrible and the website name is even worse. Way too many clicks to find anything.

Selection show is Monday at noon.

Pretty sure we are going to Minnesota to be the 4 seed.
