We’re live at Georgia-Georgia Tech baseball
First, would like to say it’s glad to see that Chance Veazey is in Georgia’s dugout here at Russ Chandler Stadium. For those who don’t know, he was paralyzed from the waist down in a scooter accident on campus in October.
Tech’s baseball team raised money to help with medical expenses at a football game this season.
Second, it’s a beautiful night at the ballyard.
We’ve got two teams having much different seasons. The Yellow Jackets are 13-1 this season, while the Bulldogs are 8-8. Georgia’s projected infield has yet to start a game together. Subsequently, the starting pitching hasn’t been as strong.
The Yellow Jackets haven’t had many issues. The starting pitching has been strong and some questions marks coming into the season on offense are tagging the ball.
Now, onto the lineups.
For Georgia
12 CF Zach Cone .381
2 LF Johnathan Taylor .333
16 RF Peter Verdin .299
43 1B Robert Shipman .458
26 C Christian Glisson .400
25 3B Colby May .222
10 DH Zach Taylor .250
5 2B Todd Hankins .291
3 SS Levi Hyams .167
And pitching for the Dawgs will be lefty Blake Dieterich, who is 0-1 with a 6.14 ERA
Georgia Tech
4 CF Jeff Rowland .250
9 2B Jacob Esch .392
21 1B Tony Plagman .382
3 C Cole Leonida .449
16 3B Matt Skole
32 SS Derek Dietrich .294
20 RF Chase Burnette .429
22 LF Jay Dantzler .293
10 DH Thomas Nichols .464
And pitching for the Yellow Jackes is righty Mark Pope, who 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA.
The Jackets are 13-1 and the Bulldogs are 8-8.

Pop quiz,
the number 1 preseason ranked UGA bulldogs couldn’t beat a GT team full of freshman…
did I mention that UGA also had 2 first round picks on their offense? I don’t think GT had any…
Good job, idiot, that street goes both ways. Such a short memory you UGA fans have…convenient.

Dawghater:
Your football team may be in a BCS bowl.
Your basketball team may be in the NCAA Tournament.
But it doesn’t matter. If they were to win the National Title, Georgia is STILL better than Tech.
Also, how’d that BcS bowl work for ya?
GO DAWGS!!
30-24.
73-66.
