shadows creeping in nearly
covering the entire field at
talking stick for game to MLB
for collegiate baseball
tournament.
Double header college baseball
opening day all over.
But another place would rather
be here in Scottsdale and with
the drone back again for game
number two getting the ball for
SAn Diego state.
T.J. McFarland tain.
Yeah , it's kind of a pretty
nice Diehl here Stephen you got
to make your first college start
on national tv.
He's been with program for two
years.
He's hit a little bit for him.
He'll be at th later in the
season.
They didn't want to too much on
his plate for him today , but
he's a low nineties fastball.
Breaking ball , change up the
sink and run more than overpower
velocity is his approach.
First pitch has been thrown and
we are underway.
Elijah Nunez , the leadoff man
for TCU , winning one to
sophomore from Arlington texas
on the freshman team a year ago.
TCU was the national scene in
last year's tournament did not
make it out of the regional
Dallas baptist 20 he is foul
picking up on what you were
saying.
They went to college World
Series four years in a row ,
which is hard to do.
2000 and 14 , 2000 and 17 didn't
quite a national title.
They haven't been able to get
back since , As you point out ,
they had some close calls ,
consistent contender but they
were very close to the national
championship.
Didn't pulled off and now they
have been in the last five years
and it's a new era.
He was there for 18 years at the
helm of TCU texas is down on
strikes , His strike out jim did
leave , but there is great
confident coaches , kurt ended
up becoming the head coach of
the hitting coaches in the game
is still there , there's still a
lot of continuity in the
recruiting process and their
coaching and teaching process.
Yeah , I think for the players
were talking to Kirk a little
bit about that at the workout
yesterday.
You know , he obviously the
responsibilities changes , you
know , you have to take on more
administrative and oversight but
he still , you know , he said he
was glad Bill stayed and he got
the job , he would have liked to
work really well together and
there's no reason they can't
continue to do so that was a
huge keep for Carlos coach
keeping coach , no love in the
dugout that brought about a huge
ovation in his opening pressure
on the ground to short and
retired.
Part of the reason why did not
make that jump to the big
leagues as we've seen from the
college ranks , pitching coaches
going to the big league level.
He was in the big leagues as a
pitcher himself.
Mystique wasn't there for him as
much.
His family is put in roots in
the community , loves being a
part of the family.
First pitch to right center
field Wall started a chance to
talk about 88 mile an hour
fastball and jumped all over it.
I think he's got one of the best
in the entire country.
I thought that last year as a
freshman , I think he's going to
continue to get better and I
think he is a really good
looking prospect.
Look at how easy that swing is.
Yeah , I'll say , you know , all
my years of watching baseball
and talking to scouts and trying
to rank players easy of
operation is such a big thing.
You know , it's not just , you
know how hard you hit the ball
or how hard you throw.
It's how easy you do it.
And he looks like he was
swinging that hard and he drove
the ball almost out of the park
throughout double left on left
and right away.
David Bishop going to bring him
home.
Freshman first college at bat
picks up his first R.
B.
I.
With his first hit.
That is a nice feeling way to
go.
We saw in the first game we had
a freshman played his first
college game driving three runs
for cal and David Bishop wants
to do the same bullet back up
