So we win Tuesday, Thursday, and then Ty pitches again Friday.  Then after we win Friday, we win again Saturday to win the bracket.  No problem, right?

So, who is our mystery Steve Labay?

Go Stanford.

[Cairn Horn88 8264]

Stanford up 7-0 going to B 4

[Valmy77 13226]

8-0 in the 4th? Stanford must think they are still in Lubbock.

[WBT 20571]

This is what I expected Stanford to do to NC State.  You can sum baseball in one word, "you never know."

[Guest Lobo]

Stanford did not take that "no national seed for you!" thing very well.  And it shows.  Opening loss was rough but their skull-fucking of Texas Tech and Arizona suggests a deeper rage.  Whoever the N.C. State/Vanderbilt loser is tonight will also feel their wrath on Wednesday, I suspect. 

[Valmy77 13226]

Beautiful cool day at TD Ameritrade. Too bad it won't be like this tomorrow.

Arizona with a nice two out double. 10-2...in the 4th.

Nothing would make me happier this afternoon than to see AZ pull off a tremendous comeback and eliminate Stanford.  And I have no particular fondness for Arizona whatsoever, outside of the fact that I live in Scottsdale and so I've attended some ASU sporting events in the last few years and pull for Sparky the same reason I pull for the Diamondbacks (except if they were to play the Rangers):  they're local, plus Chase Field is a beautiful park and I can't help but pity the worst team in baseball.

Stanford is just one of those teams I dislike for some reason I can't put my finger on, so it maybe it's just aesthetic.  I don't really care for any of the Pac 12 so maybe it's that.  I have no idea.

But a comeback would make this boring game interesting.

[Augustus 3061]

I've been impressed with the first base umpiring in this tourney.

Every review I've seen has confirmed the call.  And almost every one of those, I initially thought the ump was wrong.

[Cairn Horn88 8264]

10-2 T 6

[Augustus 3061]

5 run game now.  Keep it up Zona

[Augustus 3061]

Zona, you are gonna need to not give up more runs to Stanford.  Forgot to mention that part.

[orangecat92 306]

Wow, look out for that tree!!!!!

 

Goodbye Arizona.  I now expect Stanford to win their bracket. 

[utee94 15823]

I like Stanford, my second favorite school behind Texas of course.

GO TREE!

So Frank Anderson is the pitching coach at Tennessee. Did not know

oooh, ouch!  That casts a bit of a shadow on the situation tomorrow. 

[Cairn Horn88 8264]

14-5. B7

[Valmy77 13226]

Ok I think all the entertainment is over for this one. Be back for Vandy-NC State tonight 

[ztejas 43448]

Stanford with 20 hits. Yeesh.

[Cairn Horn88 8264]

FINAL:  14-5  Stanford over Arizona.   Zona goes home.

technically, Colorado's team is still undefeated in Omaha this year.  So...uh...yeah.

Omg Leiter's sister they just showed.

I assume she's of age?

I don't know how to tell you this in Swedish, but "why don't you have a seat right over there..."

Nah I'm pretty sure she's at least 18. I wouldn't comment if she didn't look of age.

Good lord man, listen to your lawyer...don't say the quiet part out loud in front of the jury.

I have yet to say anything incriminating if she is actually in the danger zone. Maybe I meant "omg Leiter's sister - so cool she gets to watch her brother play".

[VirginiaLonghorn 4771]

First comment tonight about Bednar’s performance was his spin rate, second comment was there weren’t any adjustments.  No shit …

[Valmy77 13226]

Leiter is pitching like Bednar tonight.

[ztejas 43448]

Leiter definitely the hottest member of his family right now. 

(Besides that hot sister of his)

To watch baseball Ztejas?

Yes, she appears to be. Good question though.

I did some research and she's at least in college.

This is her. Totally fair game. She might be close to my age actually.

They keep showing her. See above LinkedIn. But she's hotter on TV. 

She's actually connected with a girl I grew up with that went to Vandy.

I still think the Wolfpack take this bracket

[ztejas 43448]

This is the best baseball game I've ever seen.

Kind of cool how Sam Highfill has kept the Pack in the game so far.

It was a joke. I'm crushing on Letier's sister. 

But this actually is a great game.

I'm comfortable with my track record. 

And she looks much better on the tube. God knows my current LinkedIn picture sucks.

She gets points for the braided pigtails that double for reins in a full gallop …

Major points for that. 

Anyway, Highfill with the delivery...

[NeverMarryAStripper 21907]

He looked out from the second deck

He looked out on TV but it's just the angle I guess because he's clearly safe.

Where the fuck did this NC State team come from?
