Joey Volchko was removed from the game in the third inning because he couldn't handle throwing warm-up pitches. What seems like a classic Joey Volchko game tonight will turn to Paul Farley. Farley has a 4-0 record and has a 5.28 ERA.

Georgia Tech will go with Carson Ballard, who has been an all-star so far this season. Ballard also has a 4-0 record, but he has a 3.06 ERA.

The in-state rivals are very close to each other in team batting percentage. This series should be an exciting game to tune in to. Unfortunately, this game will not be televised, but you can listen to the game on the Bulldogs Radio.
