Florida at USCe. Thurs 4/20-Sat 4/22

I don't think SEC allows a Thur-Sat series to extend into Sunday. Travel day rules apply if its Sat or Sun. If Sat is a possible rainout with high likelihood then they play a DH on Friday, I believe. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

 

Here's a copy and paste from this season's SEC rule book:
B. Thursday through Saturday Series 1. If a game is postponed on Thursday or Friday due to inclement weather, the game shall be completed from the point of interruption on the following day prior to the regularly scheduled game. 2. In the event the regularly scheduled game is televised, the postponed game may be rescheduled, in consultation with the conference office, prior to, or following, the regularly scheduled game, whichever allows the best opportunity to complete such game without interruption. 3. Televised Games Affected by Weather A. For games televised on ESPN, ESPN2 or ESPNU (1) If a game is postponed on Thursday, and the regularly scheduled Friday game is televised by ESPN, ESPN2 or ESPNU, the regularly scheduled televised Friday game must start at its published start time. If a postponed game is resumed/started prior to the start of the regularly scheduled televised game, that game must be stopped after the completion of a full inning one hour prior to the start of the scheduled televised game and resumed following the completion of the regularly scheduled televised game. (2) If a game is postponed on Friday, and the regularly scheduled Saturday game is televised by ESPN, ESPN2 or ESPNU, the regularly scheduled televised Saturday game must start at its published start time. If a postponed game is resumed/started prior to the start of the regularly scheduled televised game, that game must be stopped after the completion of a full inning one hour prior to the start of the scheduled televised game and resumed following the completion of the regularly scheduled televised game. B. For games televised on the SEC Network (1) If a game is postponed on Thursday, and the regularly scheduled Friday game is televised by the SEC Network, institutions must use their best efforts to start the regularly scheduled televised Friday game on the SEC Network at its published start time. (The postponed game should be scheduled at a time which provides the regularly scheduled televised game a reasonable chance of starting at its published time.) If a postponed game is resumed/started prior to the start of the regularly scheduled televised game, the postponed game must be completed without interruption. (2) If a game is postponed on Friday, and the regularly scheduled Saturday game is televised by the SEC Network, institutions must use their best efforts to start the regularly scheduled televised Saturday game on the SEC Network at its published start time. (The postponed game should be scheduled at a time which provides the regularly scheduled televised game a reasonable chance of starting at its published time.) If a postponed game is resumed/started prior to the start of the regularly scheduled televised game, the postponed game must be completed without interruption. (3) A postponed or regularly scheduled game may begin or end on the SEC Network Alternate Channel or on SEC Network+. 4. Length of Games A. All games played on Thursday and Friday should be scheduled for nine innings. If a postponed game is resumed on Saturday, the regularly scheduled game shall be seven innings. B. If weather prevents playing both the Thursday and Friday games, or if the Friday game does not begin because of rain, there shall be two seven-inning games on Saturday. If a Thursday game is postponed and no games are played on Friday, the postponed game shall be resumed on Saturday, followed by a seven-inning game. C. If a postponed game is unable to be completed because of inclement weather and has reached official game status (five innings or more per NCAA Rule 5.8), it shall be declared a game. D. Once a postponed game is resumed, the game shall be complete if one team has a lead of 10 or more 2022-2023 SEC COMMISSIONER’S REGULATIONS (UPDATED: 8/1/22) PAGE 27 COMMISSIONER’S REGULATIONS BASEBALL runs after seven innings of play (NCAA Rule 5.8). 5. Restart Times A. In the event of rain on Thursday or Friday, no game may start after 10:00 p.m. local time or resume after midnight local time. B. On Saturday, all curfew times will be waived in order to play the game on Saturday. No games will be continued to Sunday for the first nine weeks of the conference season, however, teams can stay over until Sunday to get the game completed on Saturday. On the final weekend of the conference season, if a game is postponed or interrupted on Saturday and weather does not allow its completion, the participating teams shall stay over until Sunday to play or complete the postponed or interrupted game if its outcome may affect the seeding of the SEC Tournament and/or the regular season Conference Champion. [Revised: 2/5/18] C. In the event of Saturday doubleheaders, games will be seven innings each. D. In the event of a rain-delay prior to the beginning of play on the final Sunday of the season (if necessary), the game must begin no later than 4:00 p.m. local time to avoid a rain out of the game. If the game begins and is delayed (Sunday game), it must resume by 6:00 p.m. local time to avoid a rain out of the game. 6. Authority to Play Doubleheaders A. If weather forecasts on Thursday or Friday morning call for a high occurrence of inclement weather on Saturday, the home team with approval of the visiting team may request permission from the Conference office to play a doubleheader on Friday. B. Approval of a prospective Friday doubleheader may be given no earlier than Friday morning and shall be limited to circumstances where there is a high likelihood that weather will not permit a game to be played on the final day of the series. This does not apply for possible inclement weather on Thursday or Friday of a weekend series.
