The officials were approached the coaches at the end of the 3rd inning and told both Berry and Bianco that the field was almost unplayable and they were gonna give it one more inning to see if the field was bad in other spots than down the base lines. Once the Ole Miss pitcher slipped and even Etzel had issues running to 1st base, the officials decided to call it. It wasn't Ole Miss or USM that stopped the game, it was the officials.
