Michigan Baseball/Softball's Rough Day

Michigan Baseball fell 7-3 to Central Michigan in a weekday road contest. The second inning saw Central Michigan follow the Wolverines' 3-run top of the inning with a 5-run response en route to the 4-run win.

Michigan Softball had their would-be-home-opener against Bowling Green postponed due to "wet grounds." Well, Tony, Stu, and I were all there, and although it may have been the "wet grounds" that caused this game to be postponed, given the fact that the team was practicing on the field before the game, I'm going to guess that there is a better chance that the ongoing construction on the stands and the outfield may have prompted the cancellation.

Softball is scheduled to play against Iowa on Friday at 4 p.m., pending the "drying speed" of the "wet grounds." They are also scheduled to play the Hawkeyes Saturday at noon before a noon twlight doubleheader on Sunday rounds out Michigan's first home series of the year.

Baseball is in Penn St. this weekend for their second Big Ten series. They play at 6:35 p.m. on Friday night, and they have a doubleheader starting at 2:05 p.m. on Saturday before the series finale on Sunday at 1:05 p.m.
