Anybody else enjoying this World Series?



Short Recap:

Neither team being from the SEC/ACC meant going on the road for Regionals. Arizona played 4 games in 2 days winning the final 3, including a sweep of host UL-Lafayette on the final day, while Coastal Carolina trailed in the 9th inning with bases loaded before the game was delayed until the next morning when they scored 4 runs to win the game and Regional at NC State.

Both teams went on the road in the SEC where Arizona swept Mississippi St and Coastal Carolina swept LSU.

Both would lose their 2nd game in Omaha before coming back and winning 3 straight games, including 2 each against the team that beat them, Oklahoma St for Arizona and TCU for Coastal Carolina.

As close as I have been my whole life, I've never made it south of the border, closest I've gone is Nogales when I played high school sports.

You won't regret it if you ever do. Great beaches in Rocky Point or San Carlos. Great food all through the state. And now we have a new baseball stadium modeled after Salt River Fields.

^^^ Though I'm an ASU guy, I was rooting for UofA for the state. You've got some nice pieces there.
