    Anyone want to bet a lefty could hit this pitch more easily than a righty?

    I could be wrong but it looks to me like someone sped that video up.
    Look how quickly the catcher gets the ball back to the mound.

    Too much drama for my ticker in that game. Great teams find a way. On to the ship!

    Only thing I hate worse than last place is second place. Let’s finish it off!

    A timeless classic! Some funny lines in there ('gradualte, go Gatuh, Percy Harvey...), but still awesome. A great reminder of great Gator days past, on the House floor. Chuckles, and goosebumps... Good stuff.

    GO GATORS!!

    I don't care who we beat for the CWS.

    May both games (today and tomorrow), be long drawn out extra inning affairs...:cool:

    If my two daughters would not want to go…I would be buying plane tickets for my youngest an me to go to the Championship series. Even looked at flights this morning.

    Instead we will be hitting the backcountry and dock lights (mine are almost operational again but do have the boat on the lift working) and flats for some redfish/trout/founder the next couple of days. And then watching the Gators Win!

    I wish I was there. Omaha is a sorely underrated city, IMO.

    Yes! Use up those arms!

    I love Sully. And he gets paid the big bucks for a reason. But I have disagreed with multiple decisions so far lol. Feel like the players have bailed him out. Funny thing is I think Neely getting pulled because of the extra mound visit was good as I am not sure Neely would have finished that game off. Today. Did not love pulling Jac after the single. Hated pulling Slater and Fisher (thank goodness the tcu SS slipped and had no velocity to give us the lead back).

    But these Gators are fighters and a Great team!

    Would love to see them face the 2017 Champions as that was a crazy good team as well!

    Go Gators!

    This game is crazy when you sit back and really look at it. It truly is the Greatest Pastime. I did not realize it until my oldest fell in love with softball. Love coaching it!!!

    Yep.

    Second place means you’re the first to lose.

    This edition reminds me of the 2006 football Gators. Eking out wins against overmatched teams. Peaked at just the right time and hope for parallels with the baseball team.
