Having just watched TCU come unhinged and allow four runs in the eighth, NC State sat on an 8-1 lead just four outs away from clinching the Fort Worth Regional. And then the Wolfpack completely forgot how play the sport of baseball. Two disaster-filled innings (and seven unearned runs) later, they watched as the Horned Frogs walked off for a shocking 9-8 extra-innings victory and a reservation in the super…

TALLAHASSEE — Back in April, FSU coach Mike Martin was asked about the progress of some of his true freshmen. There were infielders Taylor Walls and Dylan Busby, as well as pitcher Cobi Johnson. All had their moments, good and bad, but undoubtedly filled critical roles for the Seminoles. Taking inventory of his freshmen starters, Martin finally landed on one that caused him to perk up: Drew Carlton. The soft-spoken…

A string of curious decisions by the NCAA has conceivably put FSU baseball at an unnecessary disadvantage as the Seminoles find themselves one way away from advancing to the Super Regional round of the NCAA tournament. Or at the least, the Seminoles lost the advantage afforded to them by advancing in the winner’s bracket to the championship series in the Tallahassee region. lRelated Chopping Block FSU baseball’s contest postponed until…

Everest is a nice little walk – the saying itself doesn’t do the enormity of the task at hand justice. During Clemson’s NCAA Regional tournament game at Goodwin Field at Cal State Fullerton Saturday evening, I sat in…

This has been the year of insane rally cap/objects/whatever in college baseball. We’ve seen notable rally wear, from Texas A&M baseball’s rally fruit snacks box, to LSU softball’s Avengers masks, to telephone-on-head-while-wearing-Captaian-America-mask. On Sunday night, USC baseball stepped up its game and busted out the rally chair. And it worked! USC defeated San Diego State, 12-11, to stay alive in its regional. (h/t @KodySimmons)
