As we move towards the weekend portion of the 2016 SEC Baseball Tournament, it’s time to see what the best of the best will have to face from Mother Nature. The weekday games have been full of drama and excitement, including a 14-inning thriller of a nightcap between Florida and LSU.
But nothing is as exciting as the last three days of SEC Baseball in Hoover, AL. Now there is a minute possibility of some showers and a few thunderstorms starting on Friday, but I think the chances won’t raise high enough to truly effect how we take the tournament.
Game times will be actually a bit more conservative, so we will finally be able to go on a game-by-game basis for the forecast. So instead of doing a 14-hour forecast per day, I’ll just refine it to the two (or one) game that will be happening that day. So let’s get right to the heart of the matter.
