It’s Sunday, so we have a lighter schedule and it’s all afternoon games. The three short-season teams are always off on Sunday. So far today’s pitchers are Quinn Priester for Altoona and TBD is going for the other three teams, which means I’ll add in the others when they become available. Greensboro was postponed due to weather
