I do wish they would keep the same format throughout.  Double elimination, 4 team regionals the whole way

I actually like the symmetry of the 4-team DE regional, then the best-of-three super, then the 4-team DE bracket in Omaha, and then the best-of-three final series.

But nothing can compare to the old 6-team DE regionals before the field expanded from 48 to 64.  Those were so fun, and absolute mayhem on your pitching staff.

That last part seems lightly fine to have done away with? 

I don’t mind getting somewhat deep, but when you just have slop and closers throwing 110 pitches, god that gets weird

Nah it was awesome. I was lucky enough to get to attend several that Texas hosted over the years.  A long, crazy party with so many visiting fan bases.  So much fun.

Quite a mixed bag in the Series this year.  Fun to see.
