Sideways rain is the best!

We did get the game in after the delay.

Most popular cap the Owls had this summer. People may know the inspiration for the design

In a semi related note, Austin Hunley is toeing the rubber for our first playoff game Sunday night. It’s on Flosports (if you subscribe) at 7:00.

I believe people are sleeping on Bargo. Not sure he starts out in the field anywhere, but believe he will be a LH platoon option at DH/PH (maybe the #1 option) and I think over the course of a week you might see him at a couple of different positions. He gives them a lot of flexibility

It’s a hoot.

Didn’t get to watch the game but looks like Hunley went 7 innings, giving up 1 run. Owls won 2-1. Congrats @@1RBFjr on the playoff win.

Excellent article on the Cape Cod Summer League in the Sunday edition of the Knoxville News Sentinel.

The writer talks to former players like Ron Darling and Buck Showalter.

Thanks, @6-4-3 . Austin had a fine game, and our defense was solid throughout the evening.

Check out this throw and great play at the plate, saving a run:

The Owls’ season came to an end last night in the semifinals of the playoffs. I’m bummed, but it’s better than not making the playoffs. I guess I’ll mow my yard tonight

Thanks to people here in the baseball forum who support the Owls by being host families, to anonymously sending people to the games as their guests, being the parents of some of our players, and for following on along.

Hunley is going to be a stud at UT. Can’t wait to watch him this year.

One of my regrets is not making it to an Owls game this Summer. I’m going to make it a priority next Summer. Go Owls!

D1 Baseball has Drew Beam on the Summer Heat Sheet at 97 mph while playing for USA Baseball.

Is that a tick up for him? Seems he sat in the low 90's last year.

He was hitting 93-94 routinely in 2022. Stayed around 95 last season. It’s normal for a kid to pick up at least 1mph every season in college these days.
