Losing as a one seed and regular season champion happens in tournaments. But eight straight opening losses? Man.

Please, Illini, don't count on homers.

Good luck in NCAA regional.

Please correct me if I'm wrong about opening losses.

Hitters they have, pitchers they don't.

Yes, especially the lead-off man in the top of the first. Bad omen. But Illini could have recovered. You got a man on first right away, advantage opposition right off the bat.

These things happen.

Beat 'em today, Illini!

Again I ask: why do baseball managers and coaches wear team uniforms? Do they think they are Lou (Illini) Boudreaus or something? Strange.

Only asking because of boring ballgame ... except not this minute right now ... Illini runner on third. Fly ball, runner home, 2-0 Illinois!

Rattle those bats, Illinois. I'm all in favor of bat-rattling.

Watching at work, so not entirely sure what's going on. But we might be getting a huge break

Sharp grounder hit to first. Throw to second for the force. Runner at first looked safe and a run scored. But it seems that they called that the runner going to second went of the base path? So they called him out and the batter out. No run scores.

The umps reviewed and confirmed the call.

I don't have the sound on, but based just on the replays, I don't really see how the runner went out of the basepath. We got very, very lucky.
