Heh, he actually overswung a little bit there. But I'd say if you're going to overswing from time to time that's the result you're looking for, yes.
He probably won't fall to the Red Sox, who I expect to be good in 2022. But he's a very 21st century Red Sox type of hitter, and I absolutely mean that as a compliment.

South Alabama put a beat down on Florida in their own home in an elimination game 19-1. Damn.

So Ole Miss coach calls his ace for 1 1/3 IP (29 p) of relief on 1 day rest after he threw 119 pitches in his start and Arkansas' coach make his closer threw SEVEN innings of relief and I'm sure there's many others who did the same. Remember, last year was cut short due to the pandemic and you can see how many professional organizations are babying their arms workloads but these college coachs give zero effs about these kids careers! If I'm Jackson Jobe and a team offers me first round money, I'm signing.

Just here to show some love for Rocker's start without getting into a draft debate. Guy has had a hell of a college career. Final home start (unless something unforeseen happens and he ends up back at school): 7 2/3, 3 hits, 0 runs, 3 BB, 11 K

ECU just put a traffic cone over a kid’s after he went deep off Leiter. I’m laughing. But, still don’t get it. Can someone help a Boomer out?

Rocker is dealing today. 8 Ks through 3 innings in a knockout game:
For those who missed it (and credit to the Opener for informing me), Vandy came back from being down 5-4 with no on and two outs in the ninth to beat Stanford to even make it to this game and give us another chance to see Rocker (and hopefully Leiter) pitch.

NC State's 7-8-9 batters combined 15 NCAA At Bats. Their ace is starting at 1st base and got a hit off Rocker. There's no way Vandy loses this game.

NC State ruled out due to COVID. What a crummy way to go down.

Absolutely sucks for the ppl who put their whole lives into having this college World Series run only to get it cancelled by people who refuse to get a stabby jabby Coach sounds like an idiot too. Saying he didn’t “indoctrinate” his players. Gee I wonder why they got eliminated by COVID when the coach looks at people who got the vaccine as indoctrinated. Oh well hopefully that just means more Leiter and Rocker for us

Pretty sure they held out vaccinated players due to protocol. NCAA is joke. 23K fans can watch and line up for autographs but the most healthy demographic in the stadium get tested every other day. If they had any common sense as well Vandy should be forced to play the loser of Texas and Miss St instead of getting to set up their rotation and become the favorites. Also I’m curious how Vandy can play vs NC State who had to forfeit but didn’t have to go into protocol after playing on the same field as 14 guys who had to have their season end.

Why is there never a name associated with the people in the ncaa making decisions?
Why do reporters just say, “the ncaa”. Shouldn’t they report, “John Doe head of the ncaa baseball committee decided today to boot nc state from the college baseball World Series!”
And shouldn’t people/reporters be allowed to question John Doe on this major decision and the impact it has?
It is time to turn the ncaa from a nameless faceless entity into people that need to be accountable just like most every other organization in the world!

Appears to be rain / lightning delay for the CWS game tonight, Leiter should be starting for Vandy.
Edit: Now scheduled for 8pm.
