Our offense can't be any more inept. Seems like it really doesn't matter at this point.
Then again, what the heck. Might as well give it a shot in an overflow thread because our season is over any way. There is no way we are winning this game. There is just no freaking way ...
GO BRUINS.

I am only going to post once in this thread
my hope is that we’ll be here talking about tomorrow’s game…please, Baseball gods, make it happen
AHHH!
I was just thinking that a new thread would bring good Mojo! Go Bruins!
All right, guys . . .
. . . ten innings is my limit when I don’t have a ‘Dawg in the fight. (Also, it’s almost midnight here in Georgia, and I have an appointment first thing in the morning.)
Good luck the rest of the way. I’ll congratulate the winner in the morning, but, either way, congrats on a great season, and go Bruins!
Go 'Dawgs!
Good night
Hopefully we see you ’round these parts tomorrow
Thanks for hanging.
I have a meeting at 7:30 EST but I think I’ll stay up. :)

Full to Giovinazzi
And my stove has smoke coming out of it
Thanks for your support.
Hopefully we’ll see you tomorrow.
The hitting's been good. Just haven't been able to string them together..
this is a pitching duel, pure and simple
My two favorite teams are UCLA and whoever is playing $C.
Nice hook that probably looked up and in before the break,

if we don't win...he doesn't pitch tomorrow

+1.
No margin for error and sometimes Bauer takes a few to get into a groove.

Oh boy
Worked his way back in this at-bat.
Oh UCLA you sweet bitch, you've BRUINed me for anything else.
Klein stays in
Runner on 2nd, no outs in the 11th
Out at first
Winning run is 90 feet away with one out
Bring in the outfield
Sigh, this is not good.
Oh UCLA you sweet bitch, you've BRUINed me for anything else.
need some more K's, '66

Why don't you load the bases there?????
Sets up a force at the plate. Bruins did not show up for this series (the SC series)

Or just walk that runner, setting up the DP (force at 2nd) for the cold hitter on deck

Next 2 hitters for USC were far and away their 2 best

Why didn't we intentionally walk 2?

Great Season Bad Ending
Congrat’s to South Carolina, they outplayed us in all facets of the game.
sjh
Every step has been a new record...
Great season, Bruins.
My two favorite teams are UCLA and whoever is playing $C.
So close
Painful ending to an incredible season. I love my Bruins.
Congrats to South Carolina.

Congratulations to SC
and congratulations to our Bruins for a great season.
Oh UCLA you sweet bitch, you've BRUINed me for anything else.
It always feels like that to me when we don't win.
But it doesn’t mean they didn’t give it there all. It just wasn’t there for them. Baseball is a weird game I think.
Go Bruins!
Actually effort does play into it
We didn’t look focused and locked in. Making dumb base running mistakes. Multiple times. So I don’t believe we gave our best effort when the biggest prize was on the line.
Not like we're the Cubs though
We are the Bruins and when we say next year we mean it. Shit, we say “next year” when we WIN.

Well
In baseball we have been kind of like the Cubs. In football we have been more like the Red Sox pre 2004. As for basketball … I don’t really know .. the future is up in the air.
Again, tired of “next year.” BN might not last that long.
When you play your best and are defeated you tip your cap
when you play like crap you feel empty….
UCLA did not play well and USC took advantage, congrats to them
The moment seemed too big for UCLA to handle – frustrating
We better watch out
If USC wins the next 105 national championships, they’ll be ahead of us
Good job by the "good" USC..
..but you gotta wonder about the four dollies they had in the stands with “C”, “O”, “C”, “K” on their bare midriffs. Rooting or advertising?
(Geez, I gotta have a lie-down.)
God, it's great to be a Bruin!
Cole is really emotional
We’ll be back next year. Break in the new stadium.
South Carolina was better than advertised.
I am impressed with them. UCLA’s offense did not put up much of a fight . . . some of it was SC but some of it was self-inflicted.
The biggest difference
is they took advantage of the opportunities presented, and we didn’t.
Great year
I said to my wife before the first game that it was a tremendous accomplishment to get this far and that I hoped we were not embarrassed. Not sure how we ended up on that scale but it seems that these were two of the poorest hitting games we have had all year, back to back, if not the poorest. Not sure what happened. They sure seemed VERY tentative. Great nucleus for next year. These guys will be hungry.
This has not been a good CWS...
for any of the nationally seeded teams.
Having played softball at a high level, it's hard for me to say the batters didn't give it there all.
Sometimes, it doesn’t matter what you do, you just can’t hit the ball when or where you need to. It’s very different than other sports I’ve played where it felt like it was more about effort.
Go Bruins!
Like they say
Whatever you do, you’ll win 54 games and you’ll lose 54 games. Unfortunately, these two we lost.
Thanks to the seniors
Claypool, Dunlap, and Uribe
apparently SC just
won their first men’s title. congrats to them.
RESCUING DANCE MUSIC FROM THE BLAHS
what did we give them
4 or 5 outs by bunting?
horrendous.
keep on playing for one run and you will keep on getting none.
But nonetheless
fantastic effort, especially from the pitching.
Should do a lot of good for the program, and I see no reason why this team won’t be right back in the mix next year.
bruinhoya banned?
Could I suggest sleeping on that decision? I think we’re all a bit emotional after that game and the season coming to an end and it doesn’t seem like the best time to make such decisions.
