Defense suspect in the 5th too. Allowed a bouncer under glove to get on and then McCann just whiffs on a pitch to let runner go to 2nd. Fortunately Curtis strikes out the next batter. Still 4-2

Infielders got sucked up towards plate on two different plays. First one should have been easy catch by shortstop. Second should have been easy double play.

Instead it's now 4-2 Liberty

Hokies up 2-0 now in 4th but allow runner on 1st to go first to third on a wild pitch. Walked the next batter so 1st and 3rd no outs in top of 4th

BTW, I still wasn't able to get this done at work, and just kept forgetting to do this from home. Finally remembered, and sent in my donation today. Thanks for the direct link!

Sorry was just keeping it to this century, Cyrus is probably S-tier i just never saw him play.

we should've just told Fuente he was playing UNC again every week

So...and I find this stunning...thus far VT has added 43 new bodies since the end of last season. 20 HS signees and and 23 transfers...and we probably aren't done.

edit: and we've added #44

I have an amazing Vaughn Hebron story I can't tell here. It involved a prank call and tense moment between cadets and several large football players in the hallway of Rasche.

General highlights/thoughts:
- Everybody talks about the food in Vietnam and rightfully so. The food we had from start to finish was incredible, and the best meals often costing $1-2 per person. Amazing restaurants streetside or even in front of folks' houses where they often make just a single dish but insanely well. I'm pretty tall but really just love the experience of sitting at a low table on a tiny plastic stool slurping amazing food out of a bowl.
- The coffee scene in Vietnam is unreal. That was another constant throughout our trip. Vietnamese coffee has a reputation for just being super strong and sweet in the US, but in Vietnam, the drinks were very creative and well-balanced. There are tons of cafes all over the place and they're usually open late since they're a popular "3rd space" for gathering there. This sounds like hyperbole, but it's hard for me to imagine a better coffee scene anywhere else on the planet.
- Scooter is the dominant form of transportation in Vietnam (way moreso than cars). IDK if there is a better fun:dollar ratio than riding your own scooter through Vietnam or on the back of a Grab scooter (app similar to Uber but you can call scooters in addition to cars). Super convenient way to get around.
- The Vietnamese people we met were so pleasant. I was struck by the pride that most people there have in being Vietnamese, in their country, culture.
- First time in Asia and I was surprised at how easy and comfortable it was to travel around Vietnam. Especially not knowing hardly any Vietnamese. The exchange rate is very favorable so you can get some pretty luxe accommodations for far far less than traveling around the US.

My son lives in Scottsdale. We played the Raptor course while I was there seeing our new grand-daughter in November 2 years ago. Great course. The water was low in the lakes, but conditions were excellent. Fun track. We played from the Terra Cotta tees with a slope of 130 (Which, to me, is tough!). Great Time!
