Wednesday. Brace for impact. Almost no chance to stay close.

Is it raining in Columbia? We can stop seeding the clouds when the game is cancelled/postponed.

Not currently raining in Irmo, about 12 miles from Founder's Park. Weather forecast says near-100% chance of rain by 5:00 pm. It's discouraging enough that I'm staying home. If they play, I'll stream the game.

Took a 1-0 lead in the first, but left 'em loaded.
Fix was awful in his last appearance. He gets the start today. He's one of my favorite pitchers. Maybe it is his day.

Fix returns the favor, walks in the tying run.

Or not. Single, 2 hit batters, 2 walks. Loaded, 1-1, 1 out.

Groundout to first makes it 2-1, Cocks.
Fix gets a K to end the inning. It could have been much worse.
It looks like sunshine at the park.

Gamecocks get 2 runs on 1 hit and 4 free passes: 2 walks and 2 HBP.

Fix issues a leadoff walk in the 2nd, advances to 3rd on a bunt single and throwing error, scores on another single. 3-0. Fix picks off the runner on first base, allowing the runner on third to score standing up while we run down the guy who was picked off. 4-0.

Geez! It seems like we give away at least half of our opponents' runs.

F8, L6, L4. Three well-hit balls with nothing to show for it.

Fix gets first two, then 1b/E8, BB, Dunagan comes and gets out three. Still 4-1.

With a two-out hit, Jouras breaks up the no-hitter. Strikeout looking follows. Still 4-1.

Dunagan pitches a 1-2-3 inning. Light rain has started in Irmo.
