Championship Day (maybe)
May
2009
After a little rain last night the dew heavy here at Fox Cities stadium. The tarp remains on the field with game time a little more than an hour away (wait their goes the tarp now). Their is a little standing water but the field looks playable.
Wooster is in the drivers seat today. The Scots are already in their dugout with St. Thomas still yet to arrive. Will it be Matt Schuld and McDowell in the first game, or will the Tommies keep him available in relief in the first for a possible second. Game one or two, the Tommies will need Schuld to pitch like he has all season for their second D-III Championship.
The Scots have their dynamic duo ready to go today but they might not need them. Sean Karpen, the favorite for the tournament MVP, is hitting the ball as well as he ever has. With a .373 team average (The series record is .407 – Marietta in 1983), it is not just Karpen who is slugging the ball. Add Stu Beath, Sean Swearingen, and Zack Vesco to those who have a tournament average above .400.
It is a rainy day for baseball, lets play one. Our prediction Wooster in one game

St. Thomas gets on the board first on a suicide squeeze by Louie Salmen in the top of the fourth. Did a nice jog going down and getting a pitch that was low and inside.
May 26th, 2009 at 1:06 pm
or a nice job, possibly.
May 26th, 2009 at 1:13 pm
Wow! Schuld struck out Groezinger with Karpen on 3rd to get out of the 4th.
May 26th, 2009 at 1:29 pm
That weather looks too cold for baseball in late May!
May 26th, 2009 at 1:50 pm
It’s a little chilly out there but not too bad. Probably around 60.
May 26th, 2009 at 2:08 pm
Swearingen just launched one out of here to cut the Wooster deficit to 4-2. Still possible to get one out to left field here the past couple days even with the wind blowing in pretty heavily.
May 26th, 2009 at 2:11 pm
Big spot here for the Scots, with a run in already, runner on first base and Karpen up.
May 26th, 2009 at 2:13 pm
Semi-intentional walk brings the go-ahead run to the plate.
May 26th, 2009 at 2:15 pm
Sacrifice puts tying run on second.
Brandon Stone warming in the pen for the Tommies.
May 26th, 2009 at 2:17 pm
Tie game as Wooster’s Stu Beath lifts a two-run single into right-center field.
May 26th, 2009 at 2:21 pm
Schuld is hanging his breaking stuff. Battled to get the second out.
May 26th, 2009 at 2:34 pm
Two runs across for the Tommies in the top of the ninth.
May 26th, 2009 at 2:41 pm
Schuld back out for the bottom half.
May 26th, 2009 at 2:52 pm
And the second game will start at about 2:25!
May 26th, 2009 at 3:15 pm
Saw one of the great scenes of this tournament out in the concourse between games — St. Thomas players lined up at the concession stand! Love it!
May 26th, 2009 at 3:22 pm
Bryce Gapinski is the listed starter for St. Thomas and Mark Miller gets the call for Wooster. Each working on two days’ rest.

Strike three called! Oh wait, it hit him.
I was almost on the floor laughing.
May 26th, 2009 at 4:05 pm
I think the announcers need to talk more about this being a national championship winner-take-all game as opposed to talking about the concession stand and media food.
May 26th, 2009 at 4:27 pm
What media food? Are they getting fed? We’re not.
May 26th, 2009 at 4:57 pm
Audio and video on my broadcast are messed up. Anybody else like that?
May 26th, 2009 at 4:58 pm
I’m also out of beer and my “May Madness” bracket is totally in the trash, but I can deal with those problems.
May 26th, 2009 at 5:07 pm
Hmm, maybe I misheard on the media food. It’s hard to tell what they’re talking about since the video keeps re-setting and buffering.
May 26th, 2009 at 5:51 pm
Having a great time here, still. Have to keep popping out of the press box to go shoot pictures in case we have a celebration. 11th innings, good times.
