Georgia baseball coach Wes Johnson is ready for his team to simply “play ball” without paying much mind to the Bulldogs’ surprisingly low No. 7 national seed.

“I told our guys don’t get caught up with what seed we are and focus on we got a game here Friday against Binghamton,” said Johnson, whose team finished No. 2 in the national RPI rankings.

“We’ve been fortunate enough to get a seed in the top eight, and that’s all you can ask for.”

Indeed, Georgia’s seed guarantees the Bulldogs will be playing at Foley Field as they host a four-team, double-elimination regional this week, and if successful, a best-of-three Super Regional (June 6-9).
