Duke baseball -- 2025 season

I thought he was out because he didn’t touch the white bag coming back? I don’t understand the new green bag rule

You’re correct about the “why”, but the rule classifies it as “runner interference” because he touched the wrong bag. That suggests it wasn’t necessary to touch him as he ran back to first, but i can’t confirm that.

Albright solid regular season King, but awful weekend in Athens. Ben Miller, our slugging 3rd baseman was out with a hand injury today. We need him badly next weekend- hope he can come back!! Epic 8th inning comeback for us today.

I have only seen few regular season games my bad on Albright I know he comes from athletic family. We definitely need miller I hate he got hit hopefully he is good to go. It had to be painful

Always good to stick it to the SEC.

First two-thirds of this are basketball-related but the last part is baseball:

Story on AJ Gracia's suspension being upheld for Game 1.

 

[jeffrey236]

So boiled down to its basics, we may be without our 2 best offensive players tomorrow. Gracia will be back Sunday, but Miller still sounds like a day-to-day case. Oy.

I was really surprised Miller's response was as tepid about playing as it was.

Like I said in a tweet and tried to allude to in the story -- he looked OK taking grounders to me. It'd be somewhere between surprising and shocking if he's not in the lineup tomorrow, at least IMO.

Feature on Kyle Johnson after his monster game against Murray State.

 

[ioliva]

Tough game by Kyle Johnson and proksch. Hindy scared me and Ben’s wrist is affecting his batting. I wonder if Johnson can be DH for miller tomorrow? Glad to see it was just cramps

 

[jeffrey236]

Miller hit a couple of balls right on the screws but right at somebody, so I’m confident he’ll be fine hitting today. What can you say about Johnson (our own Dusty Rhodes, for those old enough to remember or know who he was), Prosch and Easterly? So clutch!

Hopefully Gracia’s return will add a little more pop to the lineup.

gracia and miller b2b homers!

 

[ioliva]

Great start ruined by Kyle Johnson’s worst game ever. This sucks especially with how good he was yesterday. He gets us out but we’re down 3-2

 

[ioliva]

well looks like we’re playing game 3 tomorrow. Murray state is good but pitiful pitching today. Not sure we can win tomorrow our day 2 guys are usually pretty good

 

[dukecorey]

Horrible 4th, pitching is killing Duke. Well looking like winner to WS tomorrow

 

[ioliva]

Did the reverse jinx work? Are we making a comeback?!

 

[dukecorey]

Can’t walk in a run when battling to comeback.

 

[Willcampbell]

I take very little consolation in the fact that UNC was eliminated.

[dukecorey]

Duke might lose by 10, hope this motivates them for tomorrow. I think this is their best chance to ever make the World Series again. Today performance was very disappointing in a game to clinch the super regional and advance.

Sorry, folks. The Old Fart jinx again. I promise to stay away from the keyboard until Monday's game is over.
