...prepare anybody very well to play in 100+ degree temps. Ya' think??!!
So what mouth-breather signed a multi-year contract to play the PAC baseball tournament in what amounts to a Scandinavian dry sauna??? Idiot.

Well when we play in Surprise it is usually 65 to 75 degrees. Maybe 80. We get used to environment to some degree. The desert in Late May gets near 100 or higher. We cannot adapt to that.,The Arizona Schools adopt to it and recruit to it. They hate the weather in Pacific Nw. Can we blame them? This has been terrible April and May. We played anyway. I really respect both OSU whom I root for and ucla whom I do not root for. I really appreciated the fight in both teams. We barely prevailed. Now to prepare for another game agzinst a Team that is less banged up. Then to hosting. As far as where it should be played I would suggest San Diego. A moderate place not affiliated with PAC 12. I would be ok with any covered stadium with regulated Temps. No more of this nonsense. And no more 5 3/4 hour games. A forgettable one at that.After 2024 move it. How dumb.

San Diego would have been perfect...neutral spot, predictably reasonable weather, great place to visit. Maybe alternate that with tournaments in San Francisco and Seattle major league parks(?). But then, the PAC is a conference that still hasn't worked out how to get reasonable cable TV contracts. Clearly, it was asking too much of the PAC to set up a reasonable baseball tournament. Jesu Christo.

I get where people are coming from, not liking the heat & moving the location after 2024.
You still shouldn't lose a 9 run lead in the 9th, no matter where you are playing.
The pitching staff gave up 25 runs(22 earned) 25 hits, 12 walks, 3 hit batters, with a measly 7 strikeouts.

While I agree 100%, have you been to Omaha for the CWS? It is oppressively hot, and humid.
I like the Reno idea. Good central location. Easy airport to get in and out of. Aces park is sweet. Reno is cool town.

At the early baseball game yesterday, there was a woman sitting in front of us who seemed to have insider information on the contract. She claimed that there is a 10-run rule in effect. We were one away. But that the other team got their ups, before they would be out. Has anyone heard anything similar?
She also claimed that they couldn't hold it in two stadiums, because it wouldn't be fair. Seems to be a pretty weak argument, to me. Again, anybody privy to that info?

Yes, there is a ten run mercy run in effect for the tournament

Usually, there is a 10-run rule in effect in conference Tournaments. And we were one away twice against UCLA, but it would have only kicked in, if the Bruins did not score in the bottom half, because they were the home team. There was also a 10-run rule in effect in the Nevada midweek series, and we f#*ked that up as well. 12-2 lead in the 6th. Oregon State got cute with the use of relief pitchers again. Instead of flying back early to prepare for Stanford, Oregon State gave up 11 runs in two innings to fall into a 13-12 deficit in the 7th. The Beavers had to come back to tie it up at 13 in the 8th and scored in the 11th to win it 14-13. For some reason, we decide to get really cute with pitchers right before playing Stanford, it costs us. Everyone on the team suffers and the Cardinal kill us. Hopefully, we have seen Oregon State blow the last 9+ run lead...........ever.

They could have one group play on one field and the other four on a separate field. Then have the two teams play on another field. As I understand there are multiple fields at the complex. Is that correct? If so it would be an easy fix. Better if it would be moved.

Or they could have teams play on both fields

Like MC kills it in pretty much every way, but, for some reason, sometimes we try to get really cute with pitchers with big leads. I don't remember blowing two 9+ run leads in the sixth or later in the same season when PC was at the helm. It always seemed like PC would play to win and not try to think too far ahead.
