I guess we can close the Calif thread and move over to the rest of the season back home. with the st. john's series cancelled, our schedule shows our home opener vs. umass on tuesday. have to believe it's going to be a challenge to get the field ready in five days. could be they'll try and play in northborough at the n.e. baseball complex where we played ccsu.

Maybe our indoor facility can be used for baseball games with special rules for fly balls, as in MLB domes

The reason the UMass/HC game is at that time is likely due to a D-3 game being played that afternoon which was scheduled before Holy Cross. Lowell has grass so doubt that will be played...

Looks as if the weather will hold off for the first baseball game, and maybe the second as well.

Does anyone know the dimensions of the St. Albans baseball field? Maybe we can get a couple of dingers today.

the wagner twitter reports HC wins game 1, 3-2 with a 2 run walk off home run. HC leads game 2, 2-0 in the 3rd. i guess the team jumped on a bus yday for the 7 hour ride (without traffic!) , and back tonight the same way - amazing what a hassle it is to get games in this time of the year. at least we're winning !

Lost the second game, 6-2.
Its a square shaped field, so any homeruns would likely be pulled down the right or left field lines, which look to be about 300'+ down the line.

2-0 HC after 3 innings (as temps drop in northborough)

And I can guarantee you not one player or coach in purple is complaining for one second about the temp.
