The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets have cancelled a potential make-up game against Georgia baseball after the two schools were unable to reach a mutually agreeable makeup date. The Yellow Jackets controversially did not complete a game against Georgia on March 1 due to weather. Georgia held a 9-3 lead in the top of the fifth inning over Georgia Tech on March 1. The game was a half inning away from counting.
Georgia baseball went on to sweep Georgia Tech in the remainder of the two-game series. Georgia is off to a historically good start. The Bulldogs are 16-1 to begin the season. Georgia swept Northern Colorado over the weekend thanks to a dominant hitting display.
Georgia baseball’s next game is at home against Iowa on March 12 at 5 p.m. ET. The Bulldogs begin SEC play against Kentucky on March 15.
Georgia Bulldog fans were not happy, but not surprised that Georgia Tech cancelled a potential makeup game.
Funny reaction

Georgia Tech robbed UGA of a win
This is low class fellas. You could have played the bottom of the 5th, made the game official, and just taken the loss. The weather was bad all game and no worse then. Sadly, this officially puts Danny Hall in the weasel category. Time for Tech to make a change.

Georgia should be 17-1; Tech should be 11-5 (they are actually 11-4)
ð§¹ð§¹ð§¹ 0-3!
