I'm Calling it Now, Oregon State is Winning the Natty, AGAIN...

Recommended Posts

It didn't start well for the Beavs in their winner takes all game against FSU in the Corvallis Super Regional. The Beavs started a freshman pitcher, he got the first guy out, the next hit a double of the left field wall, the next guy it over the wall. 2-0, Beavs coming to bat.

 

Beavs scored 7, including back to back to back home runs. FSU put 1 up in the 2nd. In the 3rd, the Beavs scored 6, 4 on a grand slam. So far, the Beavs have a 1 run homer, a 2 run homer, a 3 run homer & the grand slam. Bottom of the 4th, 13-3. Tell me Jameis, could this one go either way?

Seeds to Omaha

3-seed Arkansas

6-seed LSU

8-seed Oregon State

13-seed Coastal Carolina

15-seed UCLA

Louisville (from 1-seed Vanderbilt)

Arizona (from 12-seed Oregon)

 

Determined on Monday

Duke (from 7-seed Georgia) or Murray State (KY) (from 10-seed Ole Miss)

 

Don't know much about the others, but Beavis definitely has a shot.   A bunch of teams who will be sitting at home looking at this field say'in "damn, it coulda been us."

I watched more college baseball this year than I have in years and have had a hard time predicting who would beat whom. So I have pretty much decided to root for the underdogs.

 

As a former pitcher, I have been surprised how nondominant college pitchers are--even when it seems they are throwing serious gas or otherwise have electric "stuff". I've decided it is the aluminum bats that give hitters a real sizable advantage. It is certainly not that way in the pros. When I watch the Giants, I am almost embarrassed for the number of starting position players hanging somewhere around or just north of the Mendoza line. 

 

Having said this, I guess I am too much of a traditionalist to advocate livening up the game by legalizing metal bats. Somehow hearing a hitter say, after hitting a 650 foot HR,

"I really got good metal on that one"  would grate on me. Plus, we would probably have to build much bigger ballparks, I fear, to prevent lazy 420 foot fly ball home runs.
