It sure felt like a curse after the grand slam in the 1st, but The Jane had had enough of that! Whatever it was that Lombardi and the team summoned to take that GS, before they even came to bat...the game would have been a great movie! and Stanford,

Football, then Basketball, and now Softball?

We gotta call it for what it was...and have some fun with it...

By the time of the world series it's going to be blazing hot and muggy I'm sure. The stadium is really nice, but every time I see it I think how much it needs some kind of roof, it looks miserable at times there due to the heat.

All of You Duck Softball Fans Listening to the First Duck-Stanford Game, Many of you may be texting from The Jane while others are listening to the radio and/or BIG network. My brother and his wife are seated in The Jane behind the backstop and to one side. He has passed on to me via I-phone that the Home Plate umpire is calling an extremely small strike zone for this game between the Ducks and Stanford. He is also calling a very inconsistent strike zone. This strike zone seems to begin at most players' crotch and moves up to their chest; how wide is it? It is about half the width of most of the players' upper body. Hard to believe, but if so, this would explain many of the balls & strikes being called. Justify the calls? No, If he is accurate, this umpire has to be rotated out or just go. Regardless, that won't happen until the game is complete. My brother, Dave has noted the Stanford coach has been closely observing the batters' box and has talked to one of her Asst coaches and the batters after watching how the umpire is calling the pitches. She has apparently coached her players to tighten up to the plate and box; then, lean in (to the right or left based on which side is dominant). Do I know this for a fact? No, but this is what my brother is seeing and describing. The above paragraphs may serve or assist to explain some of the odd things that are taking place during the first game between the Ducks and Stanford. I cannot verify the accuracy of my brother's comments, but he has been one heck of a high school baseball coach. He's not perfect, but he has a keen and knowing eye. He loves the Ducks, but he knows people very well, and that includes softball and baseball umpires and the rules. Take my comments for what they are worth - not much. VR, KCDuck1

So far, Oregon hasn't broke the bank going for a player, neither has Ohio State or Georgia. The U got Beck, now this with Cantwell? A great lineman is great to have, but what about the other 5 that need to be studs to make the line work?

possibly a result of there being so little else to do in Nebraska in the spring?

Big thing for me would be the chill factor and how hard that is on pitchers shoulders and arms. maybe it will be muggy and that will help.

As far as I can tell, the NCBWA relies solely on the latest RPI results. D1 Baseball is the site that I believe is the best. They have Oregon as # 4. If you look up the RPI on their website it does list Oregon at # 12. Bottom line, the games are won on the field, not on paper.

"Where's Waldo makes more sense, but this is definitely a summertime prediction for good ol' Connor.
