    A'ight....got my Xtra innings.

    Now I pull for Wake.

    Excellent team, but they don't have the championship gene, and not playing scary hungry.

    A better March up for the Gators, imho.

    (LSU otoh, chx both boxes).

    Agree 92gator. I mentioned to my son earlier today that LSU has baseball in their DNA.

    I’m leaning your way but we’re technically not into extra innings (plural) yet. Definitely more pitches need to be thrown lol.

    Now that's how you pitch with an 0-2 count on the 8 hole.

    Proud pops, and rightfully so. That out couldn’t have been played any better and could easily have blown up on him.

    As Ive mentioned. My youngest is a huge TCU fan because of the 2015 team that beat aTm in the 16th to go to Omaha. He loved Evan Skoug. It ended well after 2AM ET and we stayed up watching it all together. I had a sales meeting the next morning and didnt even sleep. It was one of my best memories just watching baseball with my kid. Yesterday I was happy my guys went on but also sad that his guys didnt. There are so many things bigger than baseball. And Evan Skougs approach and mentality made an impact on him that still exists today. Go Gators!

    Lots of pitchers can get on my nerves with their pride (that actually depends so much on the other eight men) but WF’s last walk to the dugout was one I liked.
