2023 college baseball/softball thread

Stanford forces the if game vs. aTm.

 

Brought up the regional final under the old format because it's more analogous to what the super regional is today (one of the final 16 teams).

 

Tigahs just went back-to-back bombs against Oregon State.

 

Now Arkansas retakes the lead on homers to dead center and upper deck in right field. Related, there’s an upper deck to hit home runs to in Fayetteville.

 

Southern Miss was down 5-1 against Penn and has ripped off seven straight runs over the past two innings. A three-run homer puts them up 8-5. If the pitching can hold up for a few more innings they're in good shape.

 

Fuck. Needed a So. Miss. loss to ensure hosting Super Regional.

 

More like a balcony on the baseball facility out there.

Also, that TCU 2B should transfer portal to Arkansas in the offseason. 3 HRs and … a whole bunch of RBIs in the Regional.

 

They keep saying it might be in Knoxville and that the committee will decide tonight, but by all rights it probably should be in Hattiesburg.

 

My god, college softball is 90% dugout rituals and 10% playing.

 

So out:

3
4
6
9
10
11
13

With the 8 seed left to be decided

And three Super Regionals are all-seeded match-ups, so three more are guaranteed to be eliminated.

 

Indiana State announced Monday it would be unable to host its super regional because of a prior commitment to host the Indiana Special Olympics for the 51st straight year.

 

Once every 51 years, they'll have the conflict. Can't imagine the Fighting Larry Birds have had to address this issue very often.
