How many of us are still awake?

Holding my breath, despite the large lead

Go Huskies

Bringing in Willis
Gotta finish it
That dude Brock can hit jeez

 

[willie99]

OMG, I fell asleep late. I woke up to learn the Red Sox lost in the bottom of the 9th and Stanford scored six in the 9th to make in 13-12. Glad I missed that

I just went to ESPN to see what time today's game was. 7:00 BTW

Huskies can hit as can the Trees. Pitching in the college regionals has been pretty awful throughout once you get past the teams studs. East Carolina in the Jungle (absolutely terrific college baseball venues love it) took a 6-2 lead in the 5th and looked to sweep Texas but somehow lost 9-8 in 9th. Just mediocre arms galore in late game scenarios. Hope the Huskies continue to hit they will need to. Their ace goes today we will see. Go Huskies

Can I add to the pitching woes in college baseball, the fact is most of the fields are band boxes as well. Stanford led college in HRs and while they look like nice hitters I am quite sure they hit a lot of those at home. It’s like playing at DeVitt Field in Deep River for crying out loud. The gaps are lucky to be 360. Wasn’t any different in Maryland.

 

[storrsroars]

Fell asleep in 8th. Shocked when I looked at the final box score. Don't think I've ever seen 4 HRs in bottom 9th at any level of organized baseball.

Stanford's defense on left side and poor baserunning seem to be their weakness. Hopefully their starter today has another bad outing. Their bats are just scary.

That was as stressful a sporting event as I can remember.

Shared in the Olympic sports forum but might as well post in this thread. Did a pod earlier this week with Jim Penders in case you’re looking to listen to something heading into tonight’s game!

 

[Northbound]

Yeah I was sure it was all going away in the bottom of the ninth.

 

[ShakyTheMohel]

I only watched the ninth. Brutal.

 

[brihman]

Did Peterson get tossed?

Did Peterson get tossed?

Yes. Suspended for the next 4 games now

4pm today moment of truth- do you think they win?

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

I would love to see them pull it out but Stanford is the number 2 team for a reason. Power up and the lineup and it seems like everyone they’ve brought out of the bullpen is 8-1 with a sub 2.00 ERA. Regardless, have to be so proud of this team and how they’ve represented the school!

 

[McLovin]

Realistically going to need to score 10+ to win this today. But we have 2 things on our side…

1) knowing that we can (and already have) hung a big number on Stanford

2) ALL of the pressure today is on Stanford to win

I believe!

Yeah but Tennessee was number 1 and VT was number 4 and they both lost. Never say never.

I agree they need to put up some runs. They just gotta play loose and hope a couple guys in the pen are able to hold down the fort like Kirby did against Maryland. Wonder if Gallagher has an inning or two in him?

I felt like they were pressing a little bit. It’s a fine line to play aggressive baseball and still play within yourselves. If they don’t get overwhelmed by the moment, and by overwhelmed I mean start pressing and overthinking, we have a good chance.

It’s already been a successful season, but I don’t want it to end just yet.

I agree. Peterson definitely was pressing yesterday and I think that kind of set the tone. I thought the ump was tight and obviously Stanford can mash so I wish he could of hung in there and kept it close. I hope the early game helps for them to get back at it again.

It’s been a great run, I’ve really enjoyed this team.

Boo-yaaa!!! Let’s go UCONN!!!

 

[SoFla Steve]

UConn up 3-0 in the top of the first, still no outs, already knocked out Stanford's starter!!
