The weather is unfair. Or it hates baseball.
Why else would it play such havoc with the SEC schedule on the weekend the nation’s No. 1 and No. 3 teams were to play three games in three days with plenty of opportunity to watch?
Instead, after Friday’s noon start – moved up from primetime – third-ranked Arkansas and top-ranked LSU will play a doubleheader on Saturday.
Friday’s move-up changed the game from a start on ESPN2 to a stream-only option while most people were still at work. The game would still show up on SEC Network, but a half-hour later than its first pitch. That’s because Kentucky’s Pro Day – for football – took precedence.
Saturday’s doubleheader will be at 1 p.m. and 6 p.m., give or take. Only the first will be on SEC Network. The second will air exclusively on SEC Network+.
In other words, boo Mother Nature.
