And the McM pitcher who beat Chapman in February is not likely to face the Chapman  pitcher whom they beat.

WHY - is he injured??

[BigCat43]

Voorhees has only  pitched 3 innings since he started against and beat Chapman the second game of the season, must has some sort of arm issue

[Blackcat00]

Unless San Antonio has moved to Cali or whatever then No the three best teams so far are not from the Golden State.

[Just_Some_Guy]

Ok, the top 2 teams are from California

Drag,

Why don't we let it play itself out and see? East Bay has been consistently better all year long with Viera on the bump. If Oates has good command tomorrow I think Trinity will beat East Bay in tomorrow's match up, but who knows? That's why they play the games...

Sounds good, we will let it play out and see, but i believe that the best two teams are Chapman and CSUEB

[Ralph Turner]

CSU-EB 14, McM 7.  Final.

Viera was pulled after 6 innings, so he should be ready later in the tourney.

I thought the best two teams were Chapman and Trinity.   I know that BOTH Texas teams would love to shut Chapman down.  But then again everyone wants a piece of Chapman

[Browneagle64]

There's no doubt that we should consider that there are indeed three teams from Cali. that are good.

One thing for sure, I don't think anyone should count CSUEB out or even consider them being a team that isn't capable of being a legit power like chapman. Granted that they are riding a new wave of success, you need to take into account how this team has faired throughout the entire season to see that they are indeed a team that belongs at the tourney. (Look up their schedule and results and then you'll understand why they have made it thus far.

Btw, don't count the Leo's out Bog Cat---- I've argued through out the season and within the last weeks that these guys can take on the big boys. I am sure they will do well against G. FOx.

Go leo's. , represent the SCIAC.

If I read one more person even MENTION that the CALI teams have traveled, and are at a "disadvantage" because of it, I am going to throw up on my keyboard.  If you cant step up and play somewhere other than your backyard then its going to be a long hard road in life.  These kids are >22, lets give them some credit.  And by the way, the drive from DFW to Abilene is not 4 and a half hours.  Lets let the guys show what they can do without us old guys giving them excuses.

I missed the post reguarding Cali  having a disadvantage do to travel. Where  are they. This is PLAYOFF BASEBALL WINS  ARE ALL THAT COUNT ADVANTAGE OR NOT.

I might be wron g but I think that might have been sarcasm.  They traveled on Monday for crying out loud.  They are staying in hotels in Abeline and it's not like they have a long drive to the park.  I don't think there were any serious talks about there being a disadvantage, but I have been wrong before....once

Your a  good guy Parkman I like reading your post and I dont know you but I like you.

Thanks

It was a joke It's. Throwing a Pun or two. Relax old man. I wish these games can be played all day long, but in between time, the most we can do as fan is throw a joke or two. Take a salt tablet if you still need to throw up, word has it, that such remedie works for old farts

Btw, Once again you stand corrected Mr. J.P.

They obviously deserve to be there. I don't know who would question that.

That said, I don't know that it's necessarily a new wave of success. They were there 2 years ago led by Ray Stokes (oh and two guys that are back Lamonte Toney and Matt Vieira).

Like so many other teams in this regional I question their depth on the bump. Simmons, Roll and Dunn have to pitch really well, and all three are certainly capable of it, but they're all also capable of being vulnerable and imploding.

Those TU freshman might just be naive enough to not know any better and keep swinging the sticks like they did today. Should be a good game.
