Having pitching once you get to that hot big stadium in Omaha is oh so important.


Yep. It is why Stanford is gone although I still think the weather delay saved Wake in that game. The Trees had the momentum despite the base running stupidity. I think they would have ridden Dowd to a win without the delay.

Wake's hitting isn't far off from what I posted early on in this thread. They averaged 5.6 runs a game away from their park against teams with a pulse/talent. Their pitching has been as advertised.

No doubt about it. Like I said, wins are all that matters.

I do think that if they keep this level of play up, someone will come along and beat them

I'll be headed home tomorrow sadly. What are y'all's takes? Curious since y'all have seen them play in person also


They were very disciplined against good pitching. There pitchers figure out how to throw a first pitch ball and get them looking on later counts. The defense was better than the stats show thanks to their catcher who made a great play. But in the end LSU was guessing wrong all night. And this is against who I think is the betting favorite in LSU.

It's close, but I think the two best teams played tonight.

For those saying Wake has been unimpressive, agree and disagree. Agree, because they scored at least double digit runs in regionals and supers, and have now only scored 6 runs in the first two games in Omaha. Disagree, because good teams (like Wake) find ways to win even when they look "unimpressive". It's what makes them #1 in the nation. As ugly as their offense has looked on the big stage, they still found ways to win against top 10 teams.

Wake is the only team SO FAR in the CWS to have played 2 National seeds. In the 8 games so far, only 4 teams have had double digit hit totals: UTenn today, TCU against UVa, and ORU in both their games. 5 certainly isn't impressive but it isn't that far off this year's CWS average.

The hate and disrespect for this team on here is mind-boggling.

And Wake has still not lost in the postseason.

And put 27 on a pretty decent SEC team in 2 games....

YES. Go vols when they meet the kitties again
I'm torn, I hate LSU and only dislike UT due to Tony V and Frank Anderson but the Vols actually have the pitching staff to comeback through the losers bracket.
Vitello is garbage, but there's about 10,000 overgrown nutria in Omaha whose tears I relish. Send them home.
A truly compelling a argument. I'll have to mull it over between now and 6:00 PM. Either way, one of them goes home.

Oops! I knew that. I'm just used to the Loser's Bracket Games being the early game. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

You can always hope for a cosmic calamity to strike the stadium. A two for one deal.

Except that I have nothing against the good folk of Omaha who do such a great job at hosting this event year after year.

Nice play by the ORU 2B keeps the damage of three free passes to a minimum.

If LSU made it to play Wake again, they aren't beating them twice. They could but the chance is very dim, especially if they don't have Skenes. Their bullpen will get eaten alive.

Single, two out double, balk plates the second run for the Toads. Last out of the inning was a scorched liner to left that was run down by the ORU LF.

I think it's time to do away with balk calls. They are completely subjective.

There are lots of subjective calls in sports. Balk calls are critical to keeping balance in the game.

Infield single for the first hit of the day for the Bobs.

Objectively, I've watched baseball for 60 years (played for over 20), and I've never seen a balk.

That just isn't possible. There are a lot of obvious balks, especially in college.
