Friday’s Revised Schedule
The Atlantic 10 Baseball Championship’s Thursday slate was pushed back after inclement weather rolled through the host city, forcing organizers to move all scheduled games to Friday. The decision was announced early Friday morning, and officials confirmed that the tournament will resume at 9:00 a.m. with the continuation of the VCU‑Richmond contest.
VCU entered the bottom of the seventh inning with a 4‑1 advantage, and Richmond’s Evan Wilson was at the plate when play resumed. The outcome of that game will dictate the matchups that follow, setting the stage for a cascade of contests later in the day.
Games to Watch
After the VCU‑Richmond game concludes, Game 6 will pit George Mason against the loser of that contest, while Game 7 will see Rhode Island take on the winner. The winners of those two games will square off in Game 8, and the victor of Game 8 will then face the loser of Game 7 in Game 9. Tournament officials noted that Game 9 could be shifted to Saturday depending on how quickly the later games progress and which teams advance.
The rescheduling underscores the tournament’s flexibility and the importance of weather contingency planning. Fans who had planned to attend Thursday’s action will now have a packed Friday schedule, with multiple games unfolding back‑to‑back as the championship moves toward its final stages.
