Ranked 2 nationally.  13-4 on the road in all games, which is impressive.

Baseball obviously hinges on your pitching staff.  A team might have one great pitcher and one pretty good one and do well over the season but their 3 and 4 guys might not be more than OK, and that can show up in a series.  Spahn and Sain and ....

I see the Dawgs got up 13-0 early and pulled their starter after 2 innings.  You don't see that often in MLB, if ever.  They face FSU now.
WVU took a chance last night and sat their All-American pitcher against Fordham in hopes they could steal that one and save him for a potentially tougher game.  That’s something you else you really don’t see in MLB much either.  If your ace is ready you throw him.  The first part of the plan worked.  Now they are throwing Manoah tonight against Duke.  If he mows them down then I guess the coach looks like a genius.

I admittedly don't follow the baseball team that much, but from what I understand, Michigan should win the region tomorrow, considering they already beat both Creighton and now Cincinnati convincingly and still have a regular starting pitcher who hasn't played this weekend yet..... Furthermore, top-ranked UCLA lost (though Michigan did beat them in the regular season), which Michigan would play the winner of that regional next weekend and potentially host it.

Apparently Urban Meyer's son plays for the Bearcats, but he struck out tonight.

The Dawgs got blown out by FSU and are in trouble at home now.

WVU played Texas A&M in an elimination game today.  Had a 9-1 lead that was trimmed to 10-7 entering the 9th.  A&M had bases loaded with 2 outs and a 3-2 count on the hitter.  Boom. Grand slam.

Anybody else watch this?  MxC?
Image result for don't get eliminated

A Wipeout!-style show from Japan, with hilarious, goofy English voice-overs.  I miss it.  Anyway, same mantra between it and the CWS:  DON'T GET ELIMINATED!
