That is because the college game is not set-up like the MLB game where they play everyday, but rather the focus is on weekend series. I assume this evolved from the days when baseball was just an activity and the main reason the kids were there was for school, but not certain about that. However, traditionally they try to sneak in a single game during the week, and those are the foundation for the mid-week games against local schools for travel reasons.And BTW, you (probably unknowingly) touched on a sensitive topic. That being how to view the mid-week games. Are they in place to get the bottom of the roster some action, or should the coach go all out with his top players (pitchers) to win as many mid-week games as possible?</blockquote>
