The Tigers open the 2020 season today against Liberty at 4:00. Junior lefty Sam Weatherly gets the start on the mound for the Tigers. I'll have live coverage from Doug Kingsmore right here! |

Just got to Doug Kingsmore from the softball stadium, and there are some interesting new faces in the starting lineup. Sophomore Elijah Henderson is starting in left and freshman Mac Starbuck is starting at 2nd. Also, Sharpe is not in the lineup tonight, which is a surprise. He hit in almost every game he did not pitch last season. Chad Fairey is starting at 1st, where I expected Sharpe to start, and Kier Meredith is DH instead of left field. Sharpe will be the starting pitcher tomorrow afternoon. |

Weatherly walks another and strikes put another. This is what he did last year. I think he led the team in both categories. 2 on with 2 down. |

Lol Weatherly strikes out the leadoff man, gives up back to back walks and then gets another K. Like I said, this is what he did all season last year. Walks and K’s. 2 on with 2 outs.

Fly ends the inning! Finally something other than a walk or a K! Much more democratic, as Crash Davis would say. Lol Weatherly has 5 K’s and 4 walks already. SCORELESS M2. |
