No one wants to rehash the CWS, myself included, but re: UCLA v. LSU

LSU scored 3 total runs which qualifies as one of the lowest totals in Omaha history. LSU as we know went 2-and-BBQ. UCLA, however, has scored a mere 4 total runs - but is 2-0 and in the catbird seat. All the while batting a pathetic .165 as a team.

Amazing.

Two incredibly costly errors were the difference in us being most likely 2-0 at least 1-1 right now.

That is pretty amazing. It is a legitimate, championship style of baseball strategy to now play to opponent's mistakes.

Don't make mistakes (not even one), of course.

I just hate that it's a legitimate strategy. I almost hope UCLA wins the thing just to prove a point.

1)Walk.
2)Bunt.
3)Await routine ground ball error.
4)CHAMPIONSHIPZ!!!!!!

1. You take the anger and disappointment out, it is kind of amazing. Baseball in general is that way. Hell, look at MLB, 162 effin games then what's now a 1 game playoff.

2. Removing LSU and bias, the park and situation are not good for the sport. I could go out there throwing meatballs and probably due well having not pitched from a mound in over 10 years.

Not that anybody gives a shite, but is any of the media talking about this other than locals?

Kyle Peterson was just harping on how crazy it is while broadcasting the UNC v. NC State game.

The park rewards nothing but hurts teams making mistakes. You can't change the game with one swing. Hell you ant even gap balls. I would love to know how many actual extra base hits there have been. It can't be many. It limits the game to bing who can screw up the least.
