    American Legion Baseball Area II news

    Whiteville split at Hope Mills Saturday in all likelihood gives Wilmington Post 10 the top seed in Area 2. Also shows that Whiteville will still be dangerous opponent in playoffs.

    American Legion Baseball Area II news

    It is certainly unfortunate, but it happened. My understanding is that it was self-reported. I will give credit to Post 137 for reporting the ineligible player. Probably could have left player off roster, made an excuse for his absence and moved on.

    Baseball Looking for playoff Softball/Baseball info

    Anybody know if any of the teams involved in baseball championships will have radio coverage? WZCO 89.9 and ccsnaudio.net will have Whiteville vs Murphy. Always good to know how crowded and rushed we will be? I am not aware of anyone carrying New Hanover. Of course it also depends on what series...

    Baseball Who Are the Favorites in Baseball Playoffs? All Classifications

    It appears that many of the 1A teams are inconsistent. Look like All-State one game and nowhere close the next. Appears some new teams to be heard from in the 1A West.

    Baseball Who Are the Favorites in Baseball Playoffs? All Classifications

    I thought West Montgomery was very impressive against West Columbus. Good at bats 1-9 and played solid and sometimes spectacular defense.

    Baseball 1A & 2A Baseball Playoff Standings as of Apr. 24

    It is all about geography, longitude. After 64 are picked listed in order of longitude from East to West. Then divided into 4 regions of 16 teams. Strictly by the longitudinal coordinate, no consideration for how many #1s end up in a single region.

    Baseball 1A & 2A Baseball Playoff Standings as of Apr. 24

    South Robeson is now 7-12 with 2 games remaining (home games against Whiteville and South Columbus). Even with 2 losses South Rob will be in the mix for a spot at 7-14 (.333). One more win gets them to .380 overall. They already have defeated South Columbus once this season. IF South Robeson...

    Baseball 1A Baseball

    Three Rivers has cancelled its tournament. Too many games to be made up. Your projection looks very similar to a local coach's I saw. Only drawback is incomplete records on MaxPreps that probably will not be correct until seeding day and teams that play 23 games and have a non-conference loss...

    Will be interesting to see where Whiteville ends up in seeding. Six losses at this point, all to 4A schools, four by one run. They have clinched conference.

    Strike 3 or what?

    No call at all, which was determined by everyone watching to be "no swing". The pitch getting away and the runner coming to the plate in quick succession kept any opportunity for an appeal to the field ump to take place until after the play at the plate.

    Strike 3 or what?

    Two strikes on batter and two outs, runners on second and third. Next pitch is in the dirt and batter checks his swing (or did he?). Ball gets away from the catcher. Runner on third breaks for the plate. Catcher recovers the ball, dives towards plate to make the tag, but runner is called safe...

    Baseball Statewide 2A Conference Standings

    Nice work. Waccamaw is correct. St. Pauls has a conference game to make up with East Columbus so they have one less game than other three. The date for that make up is TBD.

    Baseball Pitch Count Accountability

    And coaches are not going to (Majority anyway) report other coaches. My problem is, the rule was designed for a player's well-being. So the NCHSAA should be more determined to make sure it is being reported properly. It would not be that difficult to assign X number of conferences to different...

    Baseball Pitch Count Accountability

    Either the NCHSAA has changed its mind on fining those that don't enter pitch counts by 11 a.m. the next day or some schools have plenty of $$ to pay fines and aren't going to do it or it is too large a task for the NCHSAA to check behind every school every day and see if the counts have been...

    Does conference tournaments matter towards playoff seeding?

    If conference tournament winner is not the regular season winner they get seeded after the regular season champion and before the at-large qualifiers.
