Stanford must win three more games to reach the final. I don't see any way in hell that happens, but that's what must happen for Stanford to get there.
Not sure how you did your math, but Beck pitched Sat. so if we get to Friday, he will have 5 days rest and Williams would have 4 if we get to Sat.
Yes, which is why I asked if Beck would pitch on Wednesday and Williams Friday, each on three days of rest, or if they'd try a bullpen game Wednesday. It sounds like Esquer is going to roll the dice with a bullpen game against Vandy and have a fully rested Beck ready for Friday and fully rested Williams for possible games against NC State.
Seems like a good plan. Vandy's lineup isn't nearly as potent as NC State's.
