College baseball games are never out of reach. Wish I could be watching this one.

6-run 7th inning is the difference and Cornell beats Penn 7-6.

What a comeback win, Cornell 7 Penn 6.  Down 6-1 going into the bottom of the 7th the Big Red scored 6 runs the bottom of 7th to go ahead and win.

Massive win, one of the next two and we're Ivy champs.

Princeton beat top seed Columbia 16-6 in the losers' bracket. We need to take one of two from the winner of today's Penn-Princeton game.

So irritating not to be able to watch these games!

Anyone know how home/away works in this tournament? Up until now I assume the higher seed was the home team. Tomorrow Cornell could be higher or lower. Seems like Cornell should be the home team by being the only undefeated thus far.

Typically Cornell would be home as the winners of the winners bracket.

Quote from: nyc94That said, hard to believe they couldn't fix a dirt mound overnight.
i don't think the problem was fixing the dirt. it sounds like something got under the turf and made the surface uneven/dangerous for the pitcher. the players probably pointed out out.

The few things I read online said the mound was turf. I was just speculating because Al said it looked like dirt in other pictures online. I don't think Columbia has updated the stadium page on their website in years.

That's what I assumed until I just looked at last years tournament. Penn was the 1 seed and won their first two games. They were the away team against #3 Princeton in the next game and won. Maybe they do that so if there is a second game the higher seed is the home team in that one rather than both (or being the away team in the second game). That makes sense to me right now but I'm also jet lagged so who knows.

Wow congratulations to Cornell baseball and good luck tomorrow.   I am a big fan of head coach Dan Pepicelli as my son attended his baseball camp years ago.   He's a great coach and even better person.   Go Big Red!!!
