College World Series Game Three Open Comment Thread

This walk of Bechkam only makes sense for them, but shouldn’t we have seen this coming and let Olson swing away? I think they just got the best of us by getting a free out and took away Beckham’s bat. I’m sure I’m missing why you would do that…can someone clue me in?

Joe, you are a damn good Dawg!

Even more than I loved holding them to one run when they had the bases loaded with no outs and Jason Castro at the plate, I loved answering with two runs in the fourth to extend what was a slightly narrowed lead.

Go 'Dawgs!

From Wikipedia

Duck Fart—-A softly hit ball that goes over the infielders and lands in the outfield for a hit. Originally called a “duck fart” because it was assumed that a duck’s feathers would make its farts as soft (or quiet) as the hit.

i only gloat

during football season when we beat the crap out of auburn, tennessee, florida, tech, or south carolina

by rebeldawg63 on Jun 21, 2008 5:23 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

yeah yeah

lsu against rice, etc. i know but seriously up by 6 top 9th fields possibly coming on to shut it down. its not gloating, looking at the facts.

I know

I know what you mean….it looks REAL good….but it sounded like a Jinx with a capital J

by Russell4u2 on Jun 21, 2008 5:19 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

baseball gods don’t like it… be humble and gloat when it’s over!

by 86Dawg on Jun 21, 2008 5:20 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

It's cool.

I feel good about it, too. And I’m generally not the supersitious type. But the facts are that Stanford has another inning to score, and nothing’s certain until the last out.

But yeah. Confidence in our closer is fine.

Ugly

That was an ugly at bat…..or an at bat that says…”Let’s get to the bottom of the ninth”

by Russell4u2 on Jun 21, 2008 5:18 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

if this

hangs on right here…i hope the freaking BOTTOM FALLS OUT

and then UNC wins game 1 tomorrow and they have to play a doubleheader, and then Fresno wins game 2

or, at the least, UNC wins game 1 tonight, and Fresno wins game 2 tomorrow

by SouthernDawg on Jun 21, 2008 5:19 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

and, uh

whats the reasoning of this pitching change??

there has to be a helluva story to change pitchers, down 6, with 2 out in the 9th and noone on

this might be good

by SouthernDawg on Jun 21, 2008 5:20 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs

maybe it’s just to let this guy pitch since he’s a senior and to save the rep of Yount?

by 86Dawg on Jun 21, 2008 5:22 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs

Letting a Senior pitch for the last time

Makes sense to me.

Can't get a strike call on the curve

So they are looking for the fastball. Plus he’s leaving it up and that makes it easier to drive out. The ump is killing us.

Wow! I thought Monday's comment thread was as good as it got!

I thank you, one and all, for making this afternoon’s comment thread better even than Monday night’s, both in terms of quantity of comments and of quality of participation.

As I said, I’m sorry I had to bail, but I had my parents, my aunt, and my 89-year-old grandmother coming into town this afternoon. We’re doing baptisms (as distinguished from confirmations; the terminology differs somewhat from one denomination to another) for both of my children at church tomorrow morning, which is why we had people coming into town today.

I thought it would work out great, what with the game being scheduled for Friday and all, but, as it was, the family got here with about two innings left, so we watched the rest of the game, then visited for a while and ate supper. A good time was had by all.

In any case, I appreciate the way all of you picked up the baton and ran with it. If this keeps up, Dawg Sports--meaning not just MaconDawg and me, but all of you, as well—will be among the nominees for Best Community at the C.F.B.A.s next winter, which is a goal of mine not for the award itself, but for what it represents.

Great job to everyone, on the field and on the internet. Oh, man, is there going to be some property destroyed in Omaha tonight!

Go 'Dawgs!
