If you’re hoping to catch the Georgia v Mississippi State tournament game today, weather has forced the first pitch up to 1 pm.
I actually watched some of the Auburn/LSU game last night, and I have to say that the ABS thing doesn’t get too much in the way of the flow of the game. Decision were quick and seamless and helped with accuracy, so I’m kind of all for it.
And at least you won’t be up late watching if things go south.
1 pm start on the SEC Network.

Jesus Christ, just bounce us from the tourney now. It’s not worth it, especially with how Jackson frames pitches.
First, if you read no further, make sure you vote today for Daniel Jackson for the Golden Spikes Award.
Alright, on to the other accolades…first, for the ole ball coach.
And, for Mr. Jackson, SEC Player of the Year.
First team All-SEC: Lujo, Phelps, and Jackson.
Second team All-SEC: Kolby Branch
And for the All-SEC Defensive Team: Tre Phelps
For a team picked to finish 9th in the SEC, not a bad showing, I’d say.
Go ‘Dawgs!
This…this is, this is great.

How it ended (ignoring Saturday’s hiccup):
Works for me. Go Dawgs!
Congratulations, Mr. Jackson!
We finished the season getting clobbered on the Plains and Aoki gave up 8 earned runs. Hopefully that’s not a sign of things to come.
Amazing regular season….now let’s get it done in tourney play!
Georgia becomes the first SEC baseball program to win every road series since 2021, and won nine of ten series this season. Auburn’s six consecutive series wins is officially broken, too.
The Dawgs are rolling…let’s see how Aoki does in game three…a win and he solidifies himself as a solid day 3 starter and we might be really, really solid for the postseason play.
First pitch is 3 pm…if you’ve gotten nothing else to do…tune in!
Go Dawgs!
Woof!
I’ll give Auburn credit. It was a pitching duel all night and it played out like a game between two of the top 5 teams in the nation giving it their all. From an observation, the Dawgs looked looser and relaxed despite the close game, Auburn seemed a touch uptight. I’ll take that as a good sign for the good guys heading into the postseason play.
There was no toilet paper tossed at Toomer’s corner last night.
GTPR is primarily a football blawg. But, we all cheer and root for UGA to win at every sport. If you’ve been living under a rock since 2026 started, you may not be aware that the baseball team is pretty darned good. On Saturday, they beat LSU and, along with some other games going our way in the SEC, clinched their first Regular Season SEC Championship since 2008.
I managed to get a good capture of the entire game plus the postgame celebration and interviews. So, I decided that it was worthy of being archived alongside the football games I’ve been saving. And, because I’m such a nice guy, I’m sharing it with all of you. Enjoy!

Go Dawgs!
PSA, the final series of the year has a first pitch of Thursday night (tomorrow) and 8 pm. And it’ll be a biggun.
Technically tied for fourth in the SEC with Alabama, Auburn is highly regarded and could use Georgia to boost their RPI and improve their postseason standings with a series win. SEC Tournament is up next…but with Georgia projected as #3 by some media outlets and looking to host a Super Regional (fingers crossed we don’t implode), it’s just as important to the Diamond Dawgs.
Oh, and Thursday night is Senior Night and Wear Orange night on the Plains.
Go Dawgs, and reminder…Auburn Sucks!
Wes Johnson, allow me to run through a wall for you.
The chef’s kiss is “Georgia on my Mind” playing in the background. Congrats to Wes and the Diamond Dawgs on navigating the season and working with a strange rotation to get it figured out, as the Dawgs have found their official Day 3 starter in Caden Aoki.
Oh, and the Dawgs swept the Corndogs on Sunday.
If anything else, this is a memory you can’t erase from my brain this season:
HBTFDs!
