The outfield took a lot of rain two days ago, and with the rain today, the water table on the field is high. We don't want to play in unreasonable conditions. The rain brought to a halt a strange game in which the No. 9 batter for each team hit a home run. In all, the two teams combined for seven homers in a game that saw the momentum swing every other inning. The kids were all juiced up out there and the park was playing a little short because of the wind.
Strange things happen at tournament time.
We just look forward to playing. There's an awful lot of baseball left to be played. Nothing has been decided. Copyright 1999-2001, Morris Communications Corporation and The E.W. Scripps Company. Please read our Privacy Policy.
