The sun is out here in Williamsport for the moment, however there are still clouds in the sky. There’s a 10 percent chance of rain until 7 p.m. Then at 7, there is a forecast for showers. Only a 30 percent chance though.
Fairfield will only be able to start either Jack Quinn or Eddie Magi tonight against Auburn, Wash. Nick Nardone is not eligible because he threw 88 pitches on Friday. By pitch count rules he must rest four days, which means that if Fairfield wins tonight, he will be able to (and likely will) start tomorrow.
I imagine that Auburn will stick with Casey Manning to throw tonight. Manning got the loss against Fairfield on Friday afternoon.
Don’t forget to check out our Live Blog tonight at 7:45 p.m. for the game with Auburn and Fairfield. If anything bizarre happens weather wise or otherwise, I’ll chime in. I’m headed over to the complex now. Follow me on Twitter at www.twitter.com/pickensfcsports for more info.
Bobby,
Why are you throwing “coal in the stocking?” This is what that League decided to do for the betterment of their team. How do you know that a 13th or 14th or 15 th kid etc is deserving of such an honor ?
You sound very bitter.
Too bad only 12 players are experiencing this one in a lifetime opportunity. I applaud the Little League programs that placed 13 players on their teams.
I’m sure there is one player in Fairfield that should of been enjoying this, but he would made errors in the field and called out on strikes hurting this team.
A real coach and program would have taken 13 players as allowed by LL rules not 12
