So, in this early afternoon game (heat index 100F), Stanford chose to wear black. Shouldn't they be the one school in Omaha too smart to do this?!?


MUCH NICER in Palo Alto right now.

That baserunner probably wishing he was a bit further in foul territory for that line drive. Probably counted the laces on that ball as it zipped by.

I thought they were members of the LDS

Maybe they were LDS? I looked up, saw guys on TV with ties, and assumed they were Auburn fans.

That surprised me - Frank Thomas is the only former SEC baseball player in the MLB HOF? According to the little bit of the google I looked at, it's true.

A bit surprising but remember that not until very recently has some of the elite talent made it to campuses. The college game has grown tremendously in the past 20 years and Cooperstown will ultimately be littered with SEC players.

This is Stanford's 18th CWS. To date, they have never gone 0-2. That absolutely blows my mind (probably because of all of the times we've gone 0-2).

And until about 1990, a relatively small number of schools seemed to be in Omaha year after year. None of them were SEC schools (LSU's run started in '91).

Texas
Wichita St
Okie St
USC
Arizona State
Miami
Stanford

Seemed like these guys were in it *every* year. I'm sure there's someone else who should also be on this list.

And you're absolutely right. The HOF will be littered with SEC players before we know it.

Batter's interference ends Auburns inning. Still 2-0 Stanford, mid 4.

Vandy made their first CWS in 2011. I had no idea. I wasn't following SEC baseball before we joined.

But no, they weren't one of "those schools" back in the 80s when I lived in a world with 3 TV channels.

FSU, Fullerton, ASU, Miami also seemed to be there a ton.

And strangely enough, Wichita State has only been 7 times.

Forgot about Florida St. All those appearances and no championship. That probably hurts worse than our 0-2's have.

You're absolutely right. They had a run of appearances from 1982-1996. Before Gene Stephenson, they went seven seasons without a baseball team!

It is astounding to think about how quickly SEC baseball went from basically nothing to absolute dominance... some combination of insane investment in the sport from its members, a talent rich environment, favorable weather, and no doubt several of other things I'm not thinking of at the moment.

It's like that kid went to the Mark Johnson School of Bunting. Outside of Jason Tyner, I remember very few of his players who could lay down a bunt.

What a stupid ass stunt (to end the top of the inning)

Auburn 0 3 0
Stanford 2 4 0

Good playing by Standford to recognize the double steal and quash it.

Auburn running a double steal with two outs seems odd.

A Mark Johnson favorite, but when MJ did it, the runner on first would "slip and fall down."
