    I just hope we don't get complacent after starting the year 3-0 in midweek games.

    So much mention of whiskey thought you'd enjoy this:

    It'll be nice to get a bit of a breather opponent after facing tough teams like Stetson and North Florida.

    That cuts right through the buzz I’ve been working on all day. You hope the team uses this as motivation instead of letting the season start to unravel. That along with moving PC to Saturday because he gives up triples on Sundays just makes you wonder how much it’s in their heads. But that’s why Sully gets paid the money he does.

    Go GATORS!

    4:30 on Saturday, 1 pm on Sunday. The good thing is that our basketball game with Texas A&M Saturday isn't until 8:30 pm, so no conflict with baseball.

    He seems to have a knack for it anyway. Averages a hbp every other game as it is, so averages say he’ll get hit twice this weekend.

    With the new double first base, would a triple be considered a four bagger?

    Another quirk to the new rule, you don’t have to touch the sissy bag if you’re making the turn towards second.

    Liam seems to have upped his game. Can't wait to see what he does against better competition. Go Gators!

    Gave our tickets away. My wife is recovering from surgery to repair a large rotator cuff tear and doesn't want to go, my 92 year old MIL's knees are bothering her, my son is attending his writer's group dinner. I figure that I can stay home and watch on TV. Beautiful evening for a game, though.

    Go Gators.

    I've got several friends who have had hip and knee replacement, plus rotator cuff surgery and they all say the rehab for the shoulder is much harder. Blessings to your wife.

    She is never going to pitch again.

    Not that she ever did. LOL.

    She also had a "Tommy John" elbow replacement surgery many years ago after a bike accident being hit by a car.

    We joke that I used to pitch and she had all the surgeries.
