    Awesome moment: David Esquer just came over to the on-deck circle to tell Kyle Stowers he had just been drafted. Here's the team reacting during a pitching change:

    #CalStateFullerton HC Rick Vanderhook on possibility of hosting a super regional next week: "I don't give a shit...we're still playing."

    #USC becomes the first team in 25 year to win 17 games in the Pac-12 and not make the NCAA tournament. Brutal for Andy Stankiewicz and staff after they defied expectations this season.

    Why is Drew Gilbert so surprised to get thrown out when he said, "Fuck You!" directly to the umpire?

    Jim Schlossnagle going from Texas A&M to #Texas is one hell of a rivalry pull. That Longhorn players were told about it before the #CollegeWorldSeries even began is even wilder.

    Outside of #Arizona, the entire #WestCoast has been snubbed. Four at-large berths for an entire half of the country where the RPI is bent against them. No #USC. No #UCIrvine. No #ArizonaState. No #UCSantaBarbara.

    #Oklahoma RHP Trevin Michael on mimicking the end-of-game celebration of #VirginiaTech RHP Kiernan Higgins: "I knew whenever we beat them today I was going to do it. I take that as you showing up our team and I just wanted to return the favor."
    OMAHA BOUND! Trevin Michael closes it out, mimicking VaTech closer Kiernan Higgins' save celebration and giving a two-finger wave goodbye to @HokiesBaseball, preceding the @OU_Baseball on-field celebration:

    #LSU is headed to the championship series on the back of #AirForce transfer Paul Skenes, #UCLA transfer Thatcher Hurd and the big swing of #NCState transfer Tommy White. Any coach that isn't ALL IN on the transfer portal better get on board now.

    Text from a #Northeast coach following #Auburn's 0-2 tournament showing: "Looks like this will give John Cohen time to get familiar with the rest of the field."
    John Cohen: "I don't have much familiarity with the Northeast." #Shocker

    #Rutgers has seen its entire opening weekend starting rotation and three biggest arms enter the NCAA transfer portal. Freshman ace RHP Landon Mack (6-1, 200), 6-6, 235 redshirt freshman RHP Justin Shadek and 6-5, 235 junior LHP Preston Prince were all up to 97 mph or better.

    Once again, it feels like the West got no love. - No #BYU, #UCIrvine or #Arizona. - Corvallis and Los Angeles regionals matched up. - Six California schools in two regionals.
