Road to Omaha - Sunday Night - Open Thread
Do or die time for UCLA baseball tonight.
If we don't get it done tonight, it will be last time we get to see this:

Photo credit/source: BigWillieStyles' photostream
First pitch is scheduled for 7 pm PST. The game is going to be televised on ESPN2. As gilbert noted its a national broadcast. So we will all get to watch it. BTW gilbert managed to find a this silver lining from last yesterday's debacle. We will take all the positive thinking we can get right now.
Anyways if you don't have cable you can still listen/follow the game online by going here. Plus you can always rock out here in the game thread and get the updates from everyone else.
Let's hope our boys coming through and putting together a rally in the Super Regionals.
Here is to having another baseball open thread tomorrow.
Fire away.
GO BRUINS.

wow
The Big 12 is gone - what a poor showing by our conference.
The Pac 10 - you already have Oregon State in and Arizona State is ahead in their series.

lead-off double
last inning - the Titans got a man to third, but failed to score - your guy Brooks still pitching very well.

it's the first time that the Titans have trailed in the postseason.
UCLA has four hits, zero errors
CSF has three hits, one error
Gavin Brooks - five innings pitched, 7 k's, zero walks
Jeff Kaplan - CSF - six innings pitched, two walks, five k's

good k to walk ratio. ERA looks promising for UCLA, though.

well
I covered college baseball heavily on my blog this year, and it's not a real big community - didn't generate huge amounts of interest.
but it's a great sport. As I'm getting older (turned 45 this week), I care less and less for pro sports, and like all the amateur stuff a lot better.
i review college football books on my blog and particularly like history-related stuff. if you know anything about UCLA history books I should read, let me know.

Brooks' 12th k.
next guy up - base hit right field. fielder fell down moving to the ball, could have been worse, he recovered well.
