I kind of want to give Vandy the business in the title to reassert ourselves on top of the college baseball world but we have too much shit to clean up in our own bracket for me to worry about today. 

That said... definitely pulling for Stanford. I don't see them beating us twice.

I mean Vandy* lost Monday but Leiter pitched a 1.00 ERA complete game. No thanks.

You came to the wrong neighborhood to argue CWS history

[ztejas 43524]

That's a bad error. Lol at the color guy "not sure if he was gonna get there" and what, make that routine out?

[tantric superman 4667]

Okay, let's go you boys.

They already eliminated NCSU?

[TrashMaster G 17581]

Bwahahahahaha!

I'm aware this is an elimination game.

Vandy boys really flashing leather out there.

It must be the overwhelming confidence they have in their shitty 3rd starter. 

[ztejas 43524]

This is embarrassing.

Just SECSECSEC baseball. Be amazed peasants.

Nice play there.

dang. 

Aggressive, but not stupid.

That wasn't even close. That was dumb as shit. Fly out would have scored him on the next batter.

No cause if he wouldn’t have went they just would’ve gotten him at first. Then fly ball would’ve been 3rd out

Ah. Good point.

It was still dumb.

No … had the runner stayed on 3B, 5-3 would have been out #2 and runner would have been stranded on F8.

OB3

[tantric superman 4667]

That was cool.

[ztejas 43524]

Maybe I want Vandy to win. They've been out of sorts in 3 out of 3 games now.

Because they have a modern day Brooks Robinson at 3rd?

They are starting a 17 year old in the CWS. Maybe I bought into the hype too much.

It’s been an adventure in the corner OF spots at TDA

Winds been different everyday they’ve played so far I think. Out the first day, nothing really 2nd game, and now in

[ztejas 43524]

This color guy is sucking Vandy's dick so hard... every game with this shit. 

"That's an excellent pitch"

No it isnt - it's a full count with 1 out and it's clearly outside. That's a normal take. 

[ztejas 43524]

And Stanford with a shitty AB. Ugly game so far.

Begs the question whether there’s any pregame scouting of the weather conditions.  First game of the CWS had a misplayed fly to LF because of the sun.  Now, we’ve seen the second misplayed fly to RF due to the wind. 

[ztejas 43524]

That was massive.

Seriously wtf. I didn’t even know this was allowed. 

[shadow_operative2.0 16012]

Solo yack Cardinal, 2-0. 

[Js1 85450]

2-0 Tree

[Surly Bevo 25090]

So Vandy gets kind of thin after Rocker and Leiter eh???

Don't worry - it's working great. 

[ztejas 43524]

When they showed his 5.00+ ERA and then said he had "advanced stuff" I knew to be wary. ESPN loves pumping bullshit like this. 

[WBT 20645]

Stanford's starter has a 6 ERA

Yeah but I haven't heard him talked up all game and his team's pitching incessantly congratulated the entire year.

Saul Goodman on the mound for tree.

I mean the kid is 17 and 2 top 10 picks in front of him. And they do have the 2nd best ERA in the country

Well I'm hardly objective. I'm in laser-focus, Texas-is-the-best-team-fuck-everyone-else mode. 

Objectively, though, I do think having 2 aces and throwing a 17 year old as your 3rd guy kind of stinks of hubris and might cost them. 

[jw4381 3091]

Strike on the batters box. 

[ButtFumble 5180]

that SEC SEC SEC defense tho

[lemonandaturd 4285]

Vandy sucks ass.  

[ztejas 43524]

Vandy's pitching super badass until they start walking runs in.
