    Are you saying that the fans are more important than the health of the players & wanting them to play in 35 degree weather?

    I understand the disappointment, but see the bigger picture here

    I?m saying name a year when it is not butt cold at DNF to start the season.

    I?m saying stop selling this best fans, because of the fans, we love the fans BS if you can?t play baseball in cold weather.

    I?m saying it?s opening day at MISSISSIPPI STATE in BASEBALL. Why find a way to screw that up?

    The correct thing to do, if you move the game, is play two on Saturday, but that makes too much sense for our inept athletic department.

    Dude...I'm not fired up about Ginn pitching in that kind of weather...he did well in Frisco last year but that was against Texas Tech....not Wright State. There isn't a need to risk injury to anyone especially Ginn for Wright State. We need Ginn in Omaha

    I can buy the two Saturday thing. It's absolutely the right idea to not play Friday night though.

    2 on Saturday, 1 on Sunday makes sense. That's the way it used to be every weekend in the SEC. But if we are determined to play Friday, it was the smart move to move the game up. It's going to be freezing Friday night.

    Coaches are going to avoid DH as much as possible - especially early in the season. Yeah, it stinks from a fan perspective, but its the right call for the team.

    As a fan who lives 3 hrs away and looks forward to going to baseball for months, it feels like they are trying hard to keep me from attending.

    Looks like there's a good chance for rain on Sunday. Maybe they want to preserve the opportunity to move that game up and still get three in this weekend.

    Or maybe they just wanted to screw it up for Pinto from Elitedawgs.***

    More lunacy from MSU fans. It was going to be miserable sitting in that weather for a baseball game anyway.

    Hey, game time changes due to weather are nothing new and rarely are in favor of the fans. It has cost me many a trip to baseball games, but it is what it is. My family of 4 will be in our seats for the Saturday and Sunday games, as the weather looks to be in a more promising mood. HailState and lets take 3 this weekend!

    So I guess, pinto wants it at 7 because that would allow the extra dozen fans who want to come and sit thru that misery to make it after work....

    Temps may be the same, but February baseball games are some of the coldest events I have attended
