A sudden thunderstorm forced the cancellation of the sixth inning of the Georgia versus LIU baseball matchup on Friday, leaving the scoreboard frozen at 15‑1 in favor of the Bulldogs.
Rescheduling the series
Organizers announced that the contest will resume at 9 a.m. Saturday on the historic Foley Field in Athens, Georgia, before the regional schedule continues with Game 3 at noon and Game 4 at 5 p.m.
The delay, which unfolded under darkening skies, prompted officials to pause play and assess safety conditions before deciding on a restart time that would minimize further interruptions.
Fans who had gathered at the stadium were advised to arrive early, as the early morning slot aims to capitalize on clearer weather forecasts for the weekend.
The rescheduled contests are part of a broader regional tournament that will see additional games later in the day, giving teams a compact but intense slate of competition.
