John Warlick during block play
It'll be a re-match for the 2009 Nine-Wicket Singles, as both George Cochran and Matt Smith survived block play and work their way through the eight-man elimination tournament. The singles final will take place at 4:00 p.m. tomorrow -- shortly after doubles block play concludes. Cochran won last year's and this should be an entertaining match.
