Aight, here we go, bases juiced after a walk.

This field is all turf, but the batters instinctively dig into the box anyway.  It’s kind of funny,

Oh no, loud single to the left field wall ends it.  UMemphis 5, UToledo 4.

What do you mean I have to do a ****ing game recap.  Do we really need to do a ****ing game recap?  Uh oh, is this on?  Are we live?  Oh no, sorry folks.

Not that anybody cares about Michigan State baseball, but they are bringing the hammer down on #8-ranked Louisville 12-4 after seven innings, and having squeaked out a 4-3 win yesterday. Spartans may not be anything this yea—or any year for that matter—but thank god baseball is back!

I guess Petco‘s considered friendly to right handed home run hitters, so Nick might not stink up the place. Otherwise it’s generally considered pitching friendly, I think.
