Murray St may want to bank some of these runs for tomorrow.
They were up by nine in the 8th against Ole Miss and ended up hanging on with the tying run in scoring position.
Louisville hangs on to punch their ticket.
Murray State takes down Duke to force a Game 3 tomorrow.
There are a lot of mustaches and mullets in this tournament. It looks like 1985.
Yours truly is one fucking happy University of Arizona alumnus.
The Cardiac Cats strike again.
Well done, BatCats.
On to Omaha.
BEAR DOWN.
Clock strikes midnight for UTSA. They get beat up pretty good as UCLA advances to Omaha.
So Murray State punches the final ticket to Omaha with a 4-3 win over Duke. The ending was crazy, as Duke had the tying run on 1B with one out. A groundball to SS and flip to 2B for the second out, but R1 takes out the second baseman so no double play. But the umps call interference and the game-winning double play anyway. Murray State celebrates, dogpiles ensue. But wait…it’s under review. Replay overturns the interference call, and we play on. Next batter grounds out and Murray State celebrates again. The expression on the Murray State’s coach’s face still hasn’t changed. He’s either completely unaware or he’s the coolest cucumber in the barrel.
AZ gets on the board with a solo HR in top-4. Next batter lollygags a standup triple to RF into a double.
2-1 Coastal Carolina, 1 out in the 4th…another 2B score the runner
2-2 game end of 4
4-4 in the 7th, Carolina with a guy on 3B with 1 out
Great job by the AZ reliever. Six pitches, two Ks
2 outs nobody on in the bottom 8th for Carolina:
Bloop 2B .2 inches fair (chalk flew up) down the RF line, IBB, bloop RBI single to CF, [new pitcher] 2B roped to the RF gap plates 2 more
7-4 Coastal
Leadoff 2B, bloop single, K, GIDP ends the game.
That two out, two strike double which landed just fair came on a pitch in the dirt. Great piece of hitting and there’s just not much you can do against that.
And Arizona only scoring one run with the bases loaded and no outs in the top fifth was just brutal.
That double was an Altuve special if ever there were one.
And now I know how Yankees fans feel.
Ain’t over yet
There’s no way to defend that 2B, just one of those things
Murray State made a game of it late, but lose to UCLA 6-4
Middle of the 7th and the pug fuckers trail the swamp kittens 3-1.
I dislike both of these teams immensely.
There’s some pretty serious talent in the stands today
