Really wish ESPN+ had the rights for this State Farm Showdown. $30 a month to join "FloBaseball" is pretty laughable.
On a positive note Clark Elliott earned that Cape Cod All-Star title and has not looked back since. The kid is mashing.
February 18th, 2022 at 9:30 PM ^
Well that's a heck of a way to start the season. Go Blue!
February 18th, 2022 at 10:05 PM ^
Any updates?
February 18th, 2022 at 10:08 PM ^
5-1 Michigan in the bottom of the 5th, but TT has guys on 2nd and 3rd with 2 outs.
February 18th, 2022 at 10:12 PM ^
Wilson triples for TT, 5-3.
February 19th, 2022 at 7:59 AM ^
that wasn't a triple, it was an error FWIW
February 18th, 2022 at 10:21 PM ^
Elliot doubles for the good guys, advances to 3rd. 3-3 on the night.
February 18th, 2022 at 10:25 PM ^
SAC to CF. Elliott scores to make it 6-3.

#17 TCU is playing at San Diego State on MLB Network. Down 3-2 in the top of the ninth, TCU gets a lead-off walk, single, then the flood gates open for 3 runs (so far). Can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen a lead off walk start a rally.
February 19th, 2022 at 11:28 AM ^
Yeah. I’d be really interested to see a study on outcomes following a leadoff walk versus, say, a first-pitch single.
The walk is revealing in a way the first-pitch single isn’t because it tells you more. It tells you that the pitcher either can’t throw his breaking stuff for strikes or can’t fool the hitter into expanding the zone. Either way, that means there are going to be fastballs over the plate for the guys coming up.

TT has bases loaded with 2 outs in the 6th.
February 18th, 2022 at 10:50 PM ^
Hit by pitch, then wild pitch. 6-5
February 18th, 2022 at 10:53 PM ^
The TT fans are a bit unruly.
February 18th, 2022 at 10:58 PM ^
TT scored 2 runs with no hits and no M errors.
February 19th, 2022 at 8:01 AM ^
But 2 big errors on the ump. Logan Wood walked a guy on 2 balls and 4 strikes. With two outs and a man on first. The wheels fell off after that. He had the guy looking at strike 3 twice but both were called balls for some unknown reason.
February 18th, 2022 at 10:54 PM ^
They are playing at Globe Life Field in Arlington, TX. Gotta be so cool playing in an MLB stadium.
February 18th, 2022 at 10:56 PM ^
Finally... on to the 7th. 6-5 Michigan.
February 18th, 2022 at 11:19 PM ^
hit by pitch #2. Willie Weiss needs to settle the hell down.
February 18th, 2022 at 11:20 PM ^
Ride the pine! On to the 8th. 6-5 Michigan
February 18th, 2022 at 11:30 PM ^
6-5 bottom of the 8th. Come on, guys. Six more outs.
February 18th, 2022 at 11:32 PM ^
Bottom 8, still 6-5.
February 18th, 2022 at 11:36 PM ^
TT strands the tying run... on to the 9th.
February 18th, 2022 at 11:45 PM ^
6-5 Michigan bottom of the ninth. 3 outs away.
February 18th, 2022 at 11:49 PM ^
hit by pitch #3. Go ahead run aboard with no outs. Pucker time.
February 18th, 2022 at 11:55 PM ^
Weiss.... 2 WP, 3 HBP, 1 BB, 4K's. "Wild Thing?"
February 18th, 2022 at 11:57 PM ^
SAC scores the tying run. Need an out.
February 19th, 2022 at 12:00 AM ^
Walk off two out single. 7-6 TT. Welp.
February 19th, 2022 at 12:50 AM ^
Appreciate the updates, heartbreak aside
February 19th, 2022 at 12:09 AM ^
Huge bummer. The ball that glanced off the left fielder's glove in the 6th inning turned the tide, and in the same inning two runs scored by HBP and wild pitch. That was the inning. Otherwise we went toe to toe.
February 19th, 2022 at 6:43 AM ^
Sadly weve seen the bullpen CHOKE in the late innings time and time again
February 19th, 2022 at 10:07 AM ^
Please refrain from this type of post. These are amateurs who are students at our university and, in most cases, are paying a substantial portion of their educational costs in order to play a game. Let’s support their efforts instead of denigrating their results. Go Blue! Get ‘em next time.
February 19th, 2022 at 10:26 AM ^
Agree with you, Old Blue. First game of the season against the #14 team in a home game for them (crowd was very loud for TT) and we played well. Can’t stand it when people denigrate the players. These guys are elite. I’d like to see any naysayer go stand on the mound in front of a crowd and attempt to do what they do.
February 19th, 2022 at 2:09 PM ^
We have been talking shit about our college sports teams for like over 100 years at this point.
February 19th, 2022 at 9:49 PM ^
What a sweet goal!
February 19th, 2022 at 9:55 PM ^
Buckeyes have fourth place secure and are playing dirty. Assholes…
Give him 5 minutes
