Rice vs ECU today, Saturday. Pretty exciting. The umpire called a wide strike zone consistently, the pitchers Ojala and Maness pitched very well. But Rice was down 2-0 in the bottom of the eighth. Rice managed to get two men on and the ECU coach decided it was time to put in his closer.

The closer had to face Rendon. On a 2-1 pitch Rendon took him deep three run home run. Rice went from 0-2 down to 3-2 leading.

Then Rice brought in their closer Tyler Duffey to pitch the ninth. He retired the ECU batters with three straight outs. It was great. It was exciting.

JB and I then went over to look at Rice playing UCF in the C-USA tournament semi-finals. We watched what is called "the doubles point". Three doubles matches that are played to an eight point set. Rice quickly got behind in all three matches. They lost on the third court but came back on the 1st and 2nd courts to win those two matches and get the point. That was exciting too. But we decided to go home and not stay for the singles matches.
