Finally, Showtime at Swayze!
OXFORD, Miss.
We need this.
Today, for the first time since last March 8, there will be a real baseball game at Swayze Field.
We need this.
We need to hear the magic “ting” of the bat. We need to smell the manicured outfield grass. We need to see those familiar faces of our friends in the stands.
The crowd size may be different than in this photo from last year’s contest against No. 1 Louisville, but there will be fans at Swayze and there will be baseball. (Photo: Josh McCoy)
We need this.
After a year of social distancing, of masks, of illness and death, we need a semblance of normalcy.
