I feel like I want to put the Arkansas @RazorbackBSB at No. 1 and hope they never fall out of it till July. They've had some tough breaks the last few years. But that offense this year... Kjerstad, Martin, Optiz. In a word, YIKES. #PreseasonTop25

Couldn't have been more impressed with @TexasBaseball this weekend. Same could be said for that raucous atmosphere at Disch-Falk Field. Here's my write-up from Sunday's #WinterClassic in Austin:

This team has been thru hell and back. And now they come back from a loss on Friday to make it to the Supers. @HailStateBB is en fuego and to be feared... even with a banana phone.

Randy Mazey talks to his team after @WVUBaseball routed Oklahoma State 11-1. Yep, Manoah got pulled in the 9th and the shutout was broken. But those ‘Neer bats... lethal.

My first - and favorite - memory of Augie Garrido was as a kid, looking at the CWS program and telling my father, "He's the only coach in this whole program who is smiling". #RestInPeace Great Augustus @TexasBaseball @BaseballTitans

As most of his teammates were still carrying on, Quinn Mathew’s decided to take this view of their Super Regional celebration @StanfordBSB

This is just beautiful. Coach Ron Polk, a national treasure at his “punk rock” best...

#TBT to when I was thrown out at Arkansas for arguing balls and strikes... Once I was tossed, the umpire told me to go “where he could not see me.” So naturally, I went and stood on home plate.

Yeesh. No @UConnBaseball . Any northeast team that wins 20 games on the road, plays just 18 home games, No. 38 RPI, should've gotten in.

50 Fave Stadiums: Arkansas Best park in The Natural State? Easy... Baum Stadium @RazorbackBSB . Hell, maybe best atmosphere in D1. Experienced that raucous left field vs LSU last April.

I’ve always been impressed with the @BeaverBaseball following, especially with this turnout every year here in Arizona where they host this tournament. Good DAM crowd in orange and black. At the halfway point and OSU leads Gonzaga 4-0

50 Fave Stadiums: Missouri Hammons Field, home of @MSUBearBaseball , is impressive joint. Big league feel. Best in ShowMe State, best in MoValley. Loved covering games there. Lots of shade & brew too.

Tanks A Lot. @LSUbaseball gets a mob-off win over Wake Forest due to Tommy White mashing a Camden Minacci speedball over the left field fence. Wow x 1000. Then he gives Minacci a consolatory hug. That's first class right there. @d1baseball @D1SECExtra

#UnpopularOpinion : I usually don’t give a rats ass who wins, but I gotta admit a trip to Omaha with no Vandy whistler sounds mighty good to me right now. Last year was painful.

For the record, @IlliniBaseball did NOT dogpile, dump Gatorade over coach Hartleb's head or shoot off any confetti cannons. But they did beat Washington 7-1 to win the #DQClassic title with a 3-0 record. Well done Orange Crush.

#OnThisDay in College Baseball: 1989 @WSUCougarBSB ’s John Olerud has surgery for a brain aneurysm before his junior season. He returns in April, hitting .359 & going 3-2 on the mound as Cougs win Pac 10 North. He would wear a helmet in the field for the rest of his career

Yep, Langeliers is the new King @BaylorBaseball 's Shea Langeliers, and his hair like The Boz, has set the NCAA Tournament all-time record with 11 RBI in the rout of Omaha. 3 HRs, a single & a double. Doesn't it look like he's having fun?

Nope, I’m good. I’m just gonna sit here at @UConnBSB ’s kick-ass new Elliott Ballpark until a damn baseball game comes back around. This new joint is really cool and I’m totally geeked this program got it done. #HuskiesHowl #AACBaseball #BigEastBaseball ? #StellaArtois

Beach coach Eric Valenzuela says that @LBDirtbags catcher Connor Burns "ight be the best defensive catcher in the country." He got mobbed after throwing out a would-be base-stealer to end the 3rd inning. Burns also had 3 RBI & a double vs. SDSU.
