The Weather

I had someone ask me about the weather and how well the field would hold up. I am not sure what series they were talking about. I am assuming the “Fan” is talking about the Sharyland-Laredo United game because there hasn’t been much rain in the Valley.
Kingsville has experienced more rain. Since it is only a one-game series, it wouldn’t be much trouble to move the game back one day if the field is not up to par of if there is bad weather. The Kingsville A&M baseball team is on the road.
If they can’t play Saturday, they would have to do it Monday. Time and place would have to probably be determined.
The McHi-La Joya series would be a little tricky. A rain out might force the teams into a one-game playoff on Saturday.
At 7 p.m. today there is a 50 percent chance of rain. There is a greater chance for rain in the morning on Saturday than in the afternoon.
McHi Tacos
I am not sure if Bulldogs coach Eliseo Pompa was just promoting the fajita tacos they sell at Ted Uhlaender Field or if he knew that I have priased the tacos in the past, but he made sure to remind me to buy tacos at the game.
As I said before, McHi and Hidalgo have the best tacos.
Laredo United-Sharyland
I’ve heard United was looking for revenge after it was beat by double-digits in the La Joya tourney by Sharyland.
In that game United didn’t have its ace on the mound.
