NCAA Baseball Tournament Thread

Recommended Posts

I just can't get into college baseball. When OU hosted a regional 2 years ago I went and I just didn't have as much fun as I would've at a major league game. But OU's hosting another regional this year so I may give it a shot.

Well - if it's the first round you won't get the chance but otherwise... if you get the chance to see UNC you should go.

 

Andrew Miller will be the #1 pick in the draft and his teammate Daniel Bard should also go in the top half of the first round. Two excellent pitchers.

I'm bumping this thread for the Super Regionals. ESPN is airing games tonight. On the scroll, they listed some factoids for both UNC and Alabama. One of Alabama's alumni is Joe Sewell, who "played with Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth from 1931-33). The man's a Hall of Famer! He did more in his career than have famous teammates.

That walk-off grand slam by that dude on Clemson will probably get his knob polished a few times upon returning to school. Whattamoment.

God these Alabama fans are annoying yelling "balk" every time the North Carolina pitcher makes a move to first just because the Alabama pitcher got called on a clear balk the previous inning. I had no rooting interest in the game but the crowd now has me rooting for the Heels.
