We go into Pittsburg and lay an egg against probably the worst team in ACC. Loss might hurt chances of making ACC tournament.

Headed to Durham for ACC play-in-games. Hopefully we can beat UNC and make it to pool play.
He played BaseB and BaskB at JMU. He got Buzz and you got to believe he is going to have a good BaseB program.
I wonder if he was in attendance in Durham yesterday ? that was a game VT could have won. But too many mistakes and LOB.
I knew he played Baseball and his dad was a coach I believe . And he is a big fan of the sport, which should mean great improvements at all levels for VT. Money will be the issue , and VT fans NEEDS to start backing the program. period .....
I love baseball - it's the greatest sport ever.
I always chuckle when some soccer or lacrosse parent moans about the games being boring or taking to long, because really what they are saying is that "I'm not smart enough to understand baseball" or "I've never taken the time to learn about it."
I was a team captain in high school, led a conference in batting average for a season and was being recruited by more than one college (before an unfortunate eye injury), but I can't stand to watch baseball. The games are WAAAAY too boring and take way too long.
Went to a AA game in Altoona a couple of weeks ago and they were using the :25 pitch clock, game flew and I have to say it was the most enjoyable game I've watched in 10 years.....I hope the majors adopts the same clock and maybe I'll start watching again.
I've seen and coached a lot of kids who's athletic accomplishments exceeded their understanding of the game. Baseball's a lot more complex than it seems.
No...fluid dynamics, String Theory and raising kids are all a lot more complex than they seem. Baseball is about as simple as it gets in life.
The number one thing that's needed to speed up baseball is Umpires calling more strikes. This would force batters to go to plate and be aggressive and not go to plate looking for a Walk. this is a problem at all levels of baseball.
