Watching this on ESPN3 so I'm not on the board much.  Hoosiers are looking pretty good!  Solid hitting!  Keep it up fellas!!!!!

If I heard correctly he's a double shy of the cycle.

Vandy/Xavier were supposed to start @ 8, but in a delay. Oregon/Vandy should be a good matchup.

 

Scoreboard

[LIHoosier 25,014]

A double steal up 8 runs? C'mon guys.

[ccgeneral 38,084]

I didn't update the rankings thread after we spanked Louisville because there wasn't much movement. Guess the Coaches and NCWBA polls finally recognized after winning the B1G and the Tourney we ain't to bad and have us slotted @ 11th as of 5/26.

Georgia Southern is two-hitting Florida State.  That is awesome!  Bethune-Cookman and Miami U is knotted up at zero in the 8th.  Apparently it's rough going in the state of Florida today

Rough day in Louisana to. LSU fell to Southeastern La. and  Jackson St. beat La-Lafayette. #1 seeds dropping...

LSU won but it was tied going into the 8th.

 

Stanford is going to be a tough one tomorrow.

Thanks. I read the score wrong. It looked liked a 3 in stead of an 8. lol.

ESPN3 again

Saw in ESPN the mag that Schwarber was picked as safest 1st round pick in upcoming MLB draft.  They commented that historically 1st round catchers have good WAR numbers and college players are generally safer picks than HS players.

 

Cool accolades!

College players are usually more developed so they can sometimes move through the minors faster and a little bit easier to project.  One thing I'm not sure about is if Schwarber can really stick behind the plate in the higher levels.

Three national seeds lost today. #5 Florida State got shut out by Georgia Southern. #6 Louisiana-Lafayette lost 1-0 to Jackson State, a team that went 9-15 in its conference. 

 

 

College of Charleston took down #2 Florida, 3-2. 

 

 

So the #2, #5 and #6 teams now have to win four straight just to make it out of Regionals.

This is the beauty of baseball. Throw your ace out there and any team can win on any day.

How was Stanford the home team today?

How was Stanford the home team today? 

 

(copied and pasted from another site. last time I tried this, people posting from phones couldn't see it. sorry if it doesn't show up for some of you)

 

For first-round games during championship competition, the highest-seeded team shall be designated as the home team. In subsequent games, the home team shall be determined according to a formula applied by the games committee.
In determining which of two teams in any game will be the home team, the games committee or the NCAA game representative shall designate the home team using the following guidelines:

1. The institution that has been the home team the fewer number of times in that particular tournament.

2. If the two teams are equal in this respect but unequal in the number of times they were the visitor, then the team that has been the visitor more often will be designated the home team.

3. If the two teams are equal in the number of times that they have been home and visitor, the games committee or the NCAA game representative shall observe the following procedures in the order stated: a. If the two teams have met previously in that particular tournament, the visitor in the previous game shall be the home team in the game in question

(Exception: In a two-team tournament where both teams have been the home team twice, the fifth game will be determined by a coin flip);
b. The team that was visitor in its preceding game shall be the home team, unless both teams were visi- tors in their preceding games; or

c. If the above procedures do not resolve the matter, the home team shall be determined by coin flip. 

 

 

Because, you know, just making the higher seed the home team would be too easy and make too much sense. 

[LIHoosier 25,014]

I think you forgot the last paragraph in which the specs for the coin and the requisite number of rotations for the official flip are laid out.
