Could use some more help. Next week, at the Tiger Classic in Pacific Baylor plays USF on Friday. The USF website lists the game as a 2:00 game, the Pacific and Baylor websites list it as a 10:00am start. Can anyone confirm the truth? The 10:00 start would be great, allowing enough time to get to the Fullerton/Rice match that night.

Thanks for the support. I guess that means I’m going to Davis this week and Stockton next week.

Good stuff, usfdons, thanks for the post. Dan, I suspect Poreda will make his usual Friday start. The Dons won’t see Oregon State this weekend, instead going Sacramento State, UC Davis, St. Mary’s.

Can anyone clue me in when Poreda will pitch during the upcoming River City classic? Will he make his normal Friday start (against Sac State), or will USF hold him back for Oregon State on Saturday?

Simmons sure was good, he kept our hitters off balance all night. He pounded our righties in at will and then added and mixed speeds extremely well. I dont think he was quite 90-92 but im sure he touched it, velocity and stuff isnt his game, command and mixing speeds is. The big lefty was probably more impressive for the first few innings he threw, he was absolutely pumping. Unfortunately we couldn’t give him any help. Riverside is the real deal this year, they pitch, play D and swung the bats pretty well this weekend.
