So Mason could theoretically play three games today?!? (Assuming the weather allows it.) Maybe the “depending on team advancement” disclaimer on game 9 means they won’t make a team play too many games in one day.

I don’t follow baseball as close as basketball. Is it typical for baseball teams to play three games in a day? Can A10 not afford the park on Sunday? Or do you have to keep Sunday open in case Saturday is delayed?

I'm assuming Sunday is open in case of weather issues on prior days

Correct, the last time they had to use Sunday was in 2024. Theoretically, they could play on Monday but would have a hard stop at noon since that's when the NCAA selection process begins. Let's hope for a good day...

3-0 Mason Top of the 3rd right now... pretty crappy weather out to play ball in
10-2 Mason B4... and Mason just stole a base. My dad (who pitched for Mason) just said he would be pitching high and tight the next pitch if he was in there

Rhode Island wins 5-4. vcu will await the winner of St. Joseph's/Mason either later tonight or tomorrow morning.

I'm assuming that if Mason wins, the game will likely be tomorrow morning... but that could mean either Mason or vcu playing 3 games on Saturday... guess we'll see what the a10 decides to do shortly

I'm also assuming that the St. Joseph's/Mason game won't start on time as its pouring here right now in N VA.
