So, Texas and Long Beach play today to see who gets to play Fullerton in the supers?

 

Yep

It's essentially Texas' #4 starter (midweek guy) vs LB's #5 starter (if such a thing).    All hands on deck to the mound for both teams, aside from the starters the past 2 days

Fullerton is licking its' chops, having played just 3 games (no extra innings).   I had an inkling that they might find a way to Omaha, as with Eastman back they now have three VERY GOOD starters.

Considering that LB's starter last night pitched 18 innings all season, and hadn't started a game, I feel a little better.

[Angel Oracle]

Riley is currently the likely starter for LB tonight.    Good stuff, but on the wild side

[Vegas Halo Fan]

I may not have to worry about Omaha. Florida lost to Bethune-Cookman yesterday 6-2, forcing a deciding game this afternoon (currently scoreless in the second).

Before I forget: Go Dirtbags.

Dodged that one. Gators win 6-1. I'm guessing Super Regional with Florida State, like last season - provided that FSU beats Auburn.

This has been a crazy weekend for Beach, and a four day advertisement for the team and city.

My friend was there last night, said they were jeering the hell out of Roger.

Don't forget "marine layer"

Are Texas fans still mocking LB?    Smith shut them up but good, with 4 clutch shutout innings just 3 days after pitching a CG shutout against SDSU. 

I hope Roger had a nice plane ride back home.   Heh heh heh!

There were some awesome wild pitches last night! Very exciting offense.

I am really excited about the Beach doing well.  Very fired up.

The actual sitting down and watching the games is a tad tougher to do.

Seems like most college baseball games are super low scoring. It is really difficult to nut a baseball with the bats they have to use these days.

3.5 hours for a 9 inning game, loved the LB win but that is ridiculously long for a 2-1 game.

come on fullerton, tusks up!

I would tend to agree.  But if your six year old loves baseball, and yells out "BROCK LUNDQUIST!!!!" every time this guy came to bat...it makes it more exciting.  Plus they all are growing rally mustaches!  And Marine Layer talk!

sorry

One thing about Florida: Unlike a lot of other states, you don't get crossover fans who root for multiple teams. You're a Gator, a Nole or a Cane, and never the twain shall meet.

The ironic thing is that I very nearly went to Miami. Was offered an academic scholarship there.

Why is that ironic?
