Wheelersburg's record is 3-1 (2-0)

Burg vs. Webster from last week is scheduled to play at Burg tonight, weather permitting

SOC make up games according to the agreement made are to be played on Thursdays, there is nothing agreed upon or rule about Saturdays. Playing locations can be switched, games being made up are up to coaches and athletic directors but the actual agreement was for thursdays, so as to why Burg cancelled Greenup game on Saturday might not have nothing to do with league make up rules.

[petesweaty]

SVC rule is make-up the first available Tuesday or Thursday. If a school has a non-league game scheduled on Tuesday or Thursday they have to cancel it and play the league game.
Saturday is off limits until the end of the season if the league schedule is backed up.

South Webster at Wheelersburg ppd again

What makes matter worse when you have rainouts is when you have a Coach who will not play on Saturdays and doesn't really care whether you play or not...lol...Don't tell me that doesn't happen because it does....Baseball is a short Season and when you have a Coach who's not 100% behind the Program and not trying to get games in it won't happen....South Point had such a Coach at one time....Rainouts threw the week and 80 degree beautiful weekends and the kids sit at home.....That's why you Schedule a full 27 game Schedule instead of 22 or 23. SP also had to deal with not having a full schedule in the 3 years I dealt with this....It's cheating the kids out of games!!!!!

Friday games

West at Minford canceled.

Told West canceled because it would be too cold.

Forecast of near 50° with no precipitation, and our field drains well....

Doesn't seem logical to not play.

I was told that Waverly vs. Wheelersburg baseball game was cancelled because of water in the outfield.

If it is Minford's home game, how could West cancel?

[mrwonderful]

To cancel a game where the Temp is going to hit around 50 degrees is a perfect example of wuzzyification of America....lol.......I can understand not playing on a field with water and not playable but 45-50 degree weather this shouldn't happen....Ole the Mommys can be heard saying how the babies will catch a cold out in this weather...Another myth..... You catch colds from a virus not rain and cold. I don't know how the generations before our pampered society survived to adulthood.....

Many basketball games have been postponed in the past because the visiting team did not want to travel in poor weather, so I don't see your point. There is a mutual decision to play, and does not hinge solely on the home team.

[jijibean]

My point is in response to your accusation of West not wanting to play tonight. It seems that the home team should always have the say whether or not the conditions and playing field is appropriate. The SOC is long overdue for written bylaws to correct any and every condition that could arise in a season. That is:
1. The league schedule should be written in stone without other teams being able to request changes based on them wanting to play in non-league tournaments.
2. Mutual agreement of a postponement (first option to home team - if their field isn't ready, then play on the other's field) - I think that's is the way Sectional games are - once teams arrive, then the umpires should have jurisdiction
3. Make-up games should be the first Tuesday or Thursday available (I think that is the way the SVC is)

I am not on a board or a coach, but have seen games cancelled and/or rescheduled to accommodate teams. Until the powers that be have a written rule (and maybe they do) and those rules are followed, this is what you get. Everything else is just hearsay and accusations, both are mute.

A lot of interesting pitching decisions will have to be made over the next couple of weeks with the additions of make up games.
