I loooove baseball.
Your Bulldogs have been heavily scouted, I’m sure, if not already pledged to the pros.

I wish I could have watched the whole game.
Enjoy the victory celebrations!!!
Go FRESNO!!!

I watched the whole game and it was glorious. They set at least 3 or 4 new records. One kid, I think his name was Retweiller, hit two home runs and a double and he scored all six runs of the game with his hits. Also they were the least seeded team in history to win the wold championship of any sport. On top of that Georgia was about 3 to 1 to win the series. This one will be in the history books.

I watched the game, every single minute! I absolutely could not contain my excitement when the Bull Dogs won the College World Series tonight!!! I rarely get that excited over any kind of sports game, but even people who don't follow baseball have gotten caught up in this fabulous victory for the Fresno State Diamond Dogs!

Oh, how I would love to be at the Wonderdogs homecoming party. Guess I will have to be content to watch it on TV.

I think you’re right, but it’s close. We’ve had thunderstorms here along the border for three days running, now. I don’t think the dew point has been quite right, but the exercise is academic now!

Love those bright red uniforms, Mama Bear.
I just saw local news coverage of the victory and they showed the team pile-up just after they won!!
Should be a great weekend for Fresno coming up.

Hey, even the Dodgers seem to be coming alive lately.
:o)

This story has been unbelievable. These kids have played on heart. Many players have been hurt with some of them playing hurt. I heard that all 25 players contributed.

Also, this team has been on the road for 40 days. Heard on the radio that the school would lose money on this because of the expenses of being on the road. They are not complaining .... they have gotten a lot of national media attention the last couple of weeks.

I’m looking forward to reading the sports page tomorrow morning. Tomorrow will be Warm Feel Good Thursday. LOL

I think KMJ will start broadcasting at 6:00 and plan to broadcast from Beiden Field until 8:00.

I considered having Marissa miss her swim lesson but decided against that because she enjoys it so much and she needs to learn to swim.

Because of the underdog rating, they sparked a little more interest with each win.

The only Bulldog VS Bulldog game that I saw was the one our dogs lost on Monday. But I watched the UNC, Rice, Arizona State and San Diego games.

If you are in this area, it is impossible not to get caught up in the excitement.
