It's a good omen. FIU won after a rain delay .... aaahh, so did UAB. Dang!

No more rain...here is FIU's starting lineup...

Really have mixed emotions on this Championship. On the one hand, one of the Florida schools has to win something sometime, so that we can stop talking about how awful FIU and FAU are, despite being in a recruiting "HOTBED" (tongue in cheek) area like South Florida! On the other hand, I really would love to see UAB win a Conference Championship and then have the entire Blazer baseball Team (with Ray Watts in attendance) donate their Trophy to FREEUAB! And give Watts the Bird!

First pitch pushed back to 12:30 because of that little thunderstorm that passed through. May not be the last delay as radar shows pop up showers all afternoon.

Score?

Hasn't rained since prior to original start time. Thunder which probably means lightning in the area. They're shooting for 1:40 start now.

Um fau has been legit in baseball for years. They will be in the tourney with rice and the winner of this game

Your squad will be watching it on tv

And they did win the sun belt in football while you guys were there one year

Ugh. Another rain delay.

Any gametracker for the game?

FAU also holds NCAA record for longest winning streak. Won 34 in a row in 1999.

FIU takes a 4-0 lead after 1.

FIU 4 UAB 0 after 1

After 3, Panthers lead 5-0

Panthers 2nd HR of the game makes it 6-0 B5
