Looks like a narrow band of storms with nothing behind it. I think they have a good window starting maybe a little earlier at around 10:00.

Good call!
 
Correct me if I’m wrong, but weather always seems to be an issue here this time of year.
 
Well, I guess I’ll have another beer…

This photo gives you a good view of that short porch in right field. Yes, I’m bored. But they really haven’t mentioned it yet.

This turn of events isn’t good for the winner or the loser of this game. The forecast doesn’t inspire confidence either.

No one is to blame for the weather. BUT — weather happens this time of year. Why in the world would the team that earned the #1 seed play the second game on opening day, and be more prone to have its schedule backed up, than the 2 and 3 seeds? Not to mention a few extra hours rest for the staff even with no rain. For television? No material number of people are watching this on Flo Sports.

I totally agree and was wondering the same thing. Schedule it the same way they schedule BE Basketball Tournaments with number one seed playing first to gain additional rest.

Because in the infinite wisdom of the Big East Conference, they’re treating Xavier as the tournament host. What would they have done if Xavier didn’t qualify for the tournament?
 
Based on the forecast I just saw, I’d anticipate first pitch to be closer to 2:00. Looks like it might be a clear runway after that.

Wow, that weather forecast I looked at was absolute garbage. It looks beautiful there right now.

Top 6th, leadoff hitter gets on 1B on an error by Padilla. After a strikeout for the 1st out, the game goes into a delay due to weather.

Joe Cinnella pitching for UConn.
 
Nothing against Cinnella, but I hope everyone’s hot from the get-go behind him.

Top 6th, Cinnella gets a strikeout for the 2nd out, he comes out of the game after facing a lefty batter. Ellisen takes the mound.

Ellisen has a balk called on him, runner moves to 2B. A ground out ends the inning, game tied at 2.

I figured Van Emon or Ellison. But Cinnella to get the first man works too.
 
Bottom 6th, UConn offense goes down in order, game tied at 2.
 
I love Fanta, but is he afraid of one moment of silence?
