Duke On The Diamond - 2024
With softball and baseball now under way, this is a needed thread. Both teams have high hopes and expectations, with baseball near the top 10 and softball solidly in it.
Each is playing in invitationals this weekend.
Baseball stands at 1-0, with a game tomorrow against George Mason and Sunday against #18 Coastal Carolina. (At CC's stadium.)
Softball is 6-1, with their sole loss against #1 Oklahoma. They play two games Saturday and one on Sunday.
Really looking forward to watching both teams again this year!

Thanks for starting this thread. I enjoy following the baseball team. This year’s team has strong pitching so the outlook is bright. The goal is Omaha.

Softball got rained out after Duke got an early 3-1 lead, baseball had an impressive true road win at Coastal Carolina.
Excellent weekend for both teams!

I watched the entire game on ESPN App. It was an exciting win. Tentatively, Zeke and myself plan to attend next Sunday’s game at 12:00 noon. I’m going to watch the weather forecast as the progresses.

Re: Duke On The Diamond - 2024
Both baseball and softball continued their winning streaks. Softball had some crazy numbers,
with one of Sunday's game being 14-0, and one of Saturday's being 22-0, both in only five innings.

Both teams won yesterday, both teams are rained out today.
The baseball game was a squeaker, with Duke escaping App State 28-2.

Re: Duke On The Diamond - 2024
Softball pitched another shutout today.
Baseball beat #1 Wake Forest, WOOOO!!! First time since 2016 that Duke has beaten a #1 team. Tonight was in Winston-Salem.
One more win and Duke will have a huge series victory under their belt.
