Lets Play Two

Third Baseman Ryan Peisel, center, jumps into the arms of left fielder Matt Olson, right, after Peisel scored the winning run in the bottom of the ninth inning as No 7. Georgia beats the University of Alabama 5-4 to win the second game of a double-header at Foley Field on Friday, May 16, 2008.

Well, thats it for the baseball regular season. Georgia (Ranked 7, 8 and 12 in the latest polls) is headed to the SEC Tournament (which is rather meaningless for them) before hosting NCAA regionals and maybe a super regional on the road to Omaha.

(No word as to whether or not I'd actually get to go to Omaha. Someone would be as to whether its me? I have no idea.)

So heading into this final weekend, Georgia faced off against Alabama. I worked a Friday double-header which saw an Alabama 17-13 win and a Georgia 5-4 win. Thats 14 homers and 39 runs in one day. I stayed the whole time; wunderkin DH Bryce Massanari went a ridiculous 7-7 with 3 home runs, one walk and a HBP between both games.
