2017 NCAA Baseball Tournament Thread

Considering that we used Faedo, Singer & Byrne for as many pitches as they threw, this game I'm was an absolute must. Congrats to Larson for getting THE clutch hit of the season. Our bats look so pathetic most of the time, but they gutted out the win. And that's all that matters. Now let's see if Kowar & the rest of the staff can step it up tomorrow. But we're going to have to score some runs, maybe a lot of runs, if we expect to win. Johnny Wholestaff hasn't been too good for us this year.

I'm sure we could get some innings from Faedo and maybe Singer tomorrow.
 
we wasted so many chances with the bases loaded and only tied the game, then... of course, gave it right back with a solo shot the next inning... Don't see us winning this one, unless more crazy shit happens after the delay, we need too many station to station hits with runners on to ever score and unbelievably undisciplined swings after another with this lineup

It's 5-4 in the fifth inning after spotting them 4 in the first inning. All things considered, I'll take it. It will be very interesting to see how both teams handle the pitching tomorrow.

have no idea who's gonna be pitching but we should have done more with the bases loaded in that inning or at least had the lead or been tied, should have had 6 after that inning.. Swinging at shit ruined the inning, we literally have guys that can't even lay bunts down and then continue to KEEP striking out trying to every single time i see them try with two outs, it's ridiculous how that's even possible at this level... and the no disciplined swings at the plate so often, jesus christ...
 
Except for Alex Faedo the experienced, MLB draft eligible guys on our team have under performed this year. And yet we're 1 win away from the CWS. Injuries have impacted that some, but to me Coach O'Sullivan has done the best coaching job of his career getting the team to this point. Hope we can squeeze out 1 more win and get to Omaha.
 
The bats, or anything offensive is always the challenged part for us and there's just no way i see us doing anything in omaha again even if we make it... FSU finally made it back because they didn't have to play us this time to get there...

They will probably pitch Sellers, the Sunday starter.

Not sure what Sully might have in mind. He has more chips to play with, at this point.

They have not played a top 25 team yet this post season.
but played the #1 SOS iirc and without key players due to injury (right?)...been trying to catch up on the season since I didn't watch any games until the ACC tourney. So, I could be speaking completely out of my arse as it's no secret I typically don't enjoy baseball. I'm the definition of a bandwagon fan.
 
No need to apologize about being a bandwagon fan. Being a bandwagon fan is better than being no fan at all.
 
I wouldn't want to play them right now though. They may be the hottest team in the country.
If Tennesse Tech can beat them In Tally not sure I would call them hottest team. Great draw with a big time slumping Auburn team and ucf then good fortune getting sam houston st. As for the Gators we can hit which means any team in the country could beat us right now
 
Lets see, a guy comes in that only throws fastballs and Langworthy watches the first 2 go right down the middle.
 
It is one thing to be a fair weather fan for your own team. It is quite another to come over here and gloat on a rival board when they lose.

Don't be an asshole
 
Impressed with this Wake team. Their lineup is the best weve seen this year, Im scared to see how many hits and runs they pound out in this 3rd game, they may score 15 or so.
 
It's time for the Gators to put the STRIKE-OUT WHAMMY on their butts... :D

And it's also time for the Gator's to drop their limp-sticks and pick up their bats and go to work.

But IF they lose again, at least it's not a long trip to get home... :rolleyes:

They're legit. Took 2 of three from us about a month ago. Definitely an offensive force.
