De La Cruz pulled after a 3 run 1st inning, and a HBP and walk in the 2nd. 1 out two on.
Chapman comes out to the mound. Flies out first batter, hits the next, and gives up a bases loaded double. 5-0 now in the 2nd. I pray we don't get run ruled in our first game. And a single makes it 6-0. And a single makes it 8-0. Bailey Allen out to pitch.
And that's all for me. I just can't. Here's hoping for a miracle.
Minnesota is out to make a statement -
Running into a buzzsaw
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
Not sure how good Minnesota really is but they're a LOT better than us. They can hit it wherever you pitch it. Looks like none of their 54 wins were accidental.

Illinois wins it 3-2 on a walkoff single to center. @HerdZone will play the loser of Kentucky and DePaul at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon.
Yes, they are the number 1 team, but they will still be playing the #1 team in that regional, which means it's a top 30 team, so they will need fire to win. If you bat too much, like our baseball did against ArkSt Game 1, then you could get cold in the 2nd. If we get run-ruled, it would be best for that team to win the regional without a loss... but basically it wouldn't be a huge problem for us, but it would look worse if they lost game 2...
