Everything Baseball

Rays winning again. Somehow hanging around. Could be dangerous when they get even more healthy starters back.

Also College Softball Regionals started and I love that goddamn sport.
 
They showed the Red Sox highlights from this year so far. I wasn’t going to watch them but then I said, “Hey, I have the 12 seconds it takes to show them”. 🫢
 
Phillies move to 37-14 best record in baseball.29-6 in their last 35 playing very well.

The ATL wins and stays within 6 lol

Skenes threw another great game today looks impressive....
 
Soto punishes his old team tonight,then Judge gets in on the fun.And don't forget about Stanton.

 
ATL loses 11-5 tonight to Pittsburgh,here's all I know......

Bryce Elder can't pitch
Darius Vines can't pitch
Ray Kerr can't pitch
AJ Smith Shawver can't pitch (injured)

Can anyone take this 5th spot please?
 
Speaking of knuckleball pitchers,the only one I've seen this year is Waldron of SD.

Pitched against the ATL last weekend,struck out 10 and got the win so don't tell me they can't be effective lol.
 
The softball super regional between Texas and Texas A&M has been freaking amazing. I'm glad those two are getting back together in all sports next year.
 
That's a #1 vs. a #16 seed too,I know A&M got the first game.
A&M blasted Texas early in game 1, and Texas nearly came back in the late innings.
A&M blasted Texas early in game 2, but Texas came back in the 6th to take the lead, only to have A&M tie it in the 7th. Texas won in 9.
Hopefully tonight is just as good of a game.

Regarding that 1 vs 16 seed thing: They keep making a big deal out of that on the broadcast, but there's a disconnect for casual fans who might see this as the same as a 1 vs 16 in the Basketball tournament. Texas is the #1 overall seed and A&M is the #16 overall seed, so the separation isn't as much as it sounds like. Honestly, if I'm Texas, I'd be pissed that A&M was given the #16 national seed and not something higher.
(Note: This isn't aimed directly at you, it's just something that has irked me a bit on the broadcasts...and Amanda Scarborough should know better. :))

A&M hosted a regional as well,so they aren't a bad team at all.Still finished 44-14.

But Oklahoma is still the team to beat lol.

Thank you my for the insightful explanation as to how their seedings are. I've enjoyed watching these softball games the last few years. Watching the girl's enthusiasm and competiveness is exciting to say the least.

Basically the top 16 teams in the country host a regional,and A&M was 16th and last team to do so.If you win that you move to super regional.

It's not much of an upset if the 16th ranked team in the country can take 2/3 from the #1 ranked team.

Same thing tomorrow in the men's baseball bracket.
