Reply to "2020 College Baseball Season"

Many mid week games are about pitching and to which team the game is more important. My son was at Mercer and two years ago they went down to UF to play the Gators. Gators were #1 in the nation and Mercer was / is a very solid mid major. Obviously to win that game would be more important to Mercer. If any of Florida's front line pitchers threw that day, it was not to the extent that they would not be available for any of the weekend games. Mercer got the lead in the middle of the game and brought in their best reliever. He was usually an inning or two guy who was in nearly half the team's games. Well that day he was lights out, as usual, and the Gators had no chance against him. He pitched the last 5 innings or so and Mercer won the game. The reliever probably wasn't available Friday and maybe not Saturday, but beating the Gators that day was important enough to risk that.
