Cal Baseball vs. Virginia: College World Series Game 3 Open Thread

if we don’t slide over 2nd base, we get an RBI on the next hit.
If we don’t throw that pitch in the dirt, they only get 1 run on the Pop Fly. No Tag RBI.
Should be 1-1.

Eric Jaffe, the prize of the Class of 2010 (threw heat), is at UCLA now. Bosco (I think that’s his name) is at Arkansas now, he was a power hitting out fielder. Think there was 4 transfers.

NACDA DIrector's cup implications

Based on North Carolina getting eliminated yesterday, they cannot pass us in the NACDA DIrector’s cup standings so we will finish ahead of them. We will pass Duke based on our CWS appearance, but might be leapfrogged by Florida who won’t finish any lower than 4th in the CWS. So we are essentially guaranteed either a 3rd or 4th place finish — our best finish ever!

Almost a double play

Although I’m not sure Marcus should have thrown the relay. That had trouble written all over it.

Back to the transfers...

Thanks for your prior comments on the matter.

So, would Jaffe and Bosco been in the lineup during these CWS games??? I’m just wondering if this CWS team could have been even better had it not been for the admin’s handling of the matter.

Eric Jaffe, the prize of the Class of 2010 (threw heat), is at UCLA now. Bosco (I think that’s his name) is at Arkansas now, he was a power hitting out fielder. …Brett Bishop went to a JC in Fresno, I think he had like 12 AB last year.

Honestly, concordtom, I don’t know that Cal would be in the CWS right now if it hadn’t been for the whole cancellation of baseball thing. It gave them a motivation and a unity I’m not sure they would have had otherwise.

Well, there CERTAINLY is that aspect in it all. The team could have just felt NO pressure and I think people generally perform better when they don’t feel the heat.

by concordtom on Jun 23, 2011 5:35 PM PDT up reply actions

Jaffe might’ve been a bullpen arm, but he didn’t pitch at all for UCLA this year.

I don’t think he was eligible too. I’m pretty sure he didn’t get a waiver.

Jaffe would've been in our rotation somewhere

or a key member of the bullpen. Heck, he probably would have started today’s game. As for Bosco, I don’t he’d start over Bunting or Booker but maybe in center. I’m not sure if he can handle center or not.

The bigger loss was the injury to Justin Jones, I think.
