No rain in NW Arky forecast for tonight or Friday. But there will be wind howling in from the S (gusts to 30mph) the next two days.

Baum Walker is oriented with the dish facing roughly SE to the CF fence. That means there will be strong winds blowing in from RF Thu and Fri.

We need our pitchers to PUMP STRIKES. Keep walks and HBP to an absolute minimum. This may particularly work to Prager's advantage (who has thrown strikes but been burned on the occasional HR).

Saturday looks like a rain out waiting to happen. Hopefully there will be time window to get that game in.

Zero chance of a game up here on Saturday. Storms are going to show up before the sun comes up and they won't stop until late Sunday night. If we don't play 2 on Friday, we won't get all 3 games in.

🚨 SCHEDULE CHANGE 🚨

Due to predicted inclement weather, our series finale at Arkansas has been moved up to a Friday doubleheader starting at 2 p.m.#GigEm pic.twitter.com/WzGEtU8oWi

double header will hurt us like it did UT if we don't perform in Game 1. Could work in our favor too. Fingers crossed.

Yeah that's the only way to get three games in.

Limiting walks, HBP, and errors is at a huge premium these next two days.

man if the winds are coming in at 30 mph from right to right center i am living on the outside of the plate against righties and begging lefties to pull the ball. ball loses a lot of steam sailing into 30mph winds. turns home runs into pop outs.

What? Tennessee performed amazing in Game 1 and we were awful. Then we won the doubleheader the next day easily.

He may have meant game 1 of doubleheader.

Doubleheader will favor team with deeper pitching (or more dominant, efficient starting pitching) this weekend.

generally speaking...when your team is the underdog...

kind of want unusual or off-nominal conditions / weather

you know...the old adage proved true this weekend

schedule changes, weather impacts, etc.., worked out great for the underdog
