That was my guess when I went looking for tix.  Thanks for confirming.  See you there for at least one.

Where are you sitting now Tony ?

Edited to add section.

Apparently anywhere I want. Likely somewhere in section N top couple of rows.

Game 2 of NLCS: The Mets pitchers shut down the Dodgers bats other than Tommy Edman who had 3 of LA’s 5 hits and drove in 2 of their runs. Also stole a base.

As a Mets fan, enjoying this rare playoff appearance, in comparison to the Dodgers where it is a frequent and familiar experience and likely to return again next year, I'm all in favor of Edman accounting for all of the Dodgers hits ongoing. Although if he could hold himself to singles it would be much appreciated.


RE: Stanford Baseball 2025 - Nobadeer - 10-16-2024

NLCS game 3, Dodgers win - Edman with another hit, an early RBI (sac fly) and later, run scored (on K Hernandez homer). Batting .333 in the postseason so far.

Thanks, Bob. As expected, will rack up a ton of frequent flier miles.


RE: Stanford Baseball 2025 - Nobadeer - 10-17-2024

NLCS: Tommy Edman keeps on raking! Tonight at Citi Field, 2 for 6, two doubles driving in 3 runs, and a run scored in the Dodgers' rout of NYM. 

His sac fly last night was batting lefty, a rocket to the warning track, and his RBI doubles tonight were batting righty and pulled into the left center gap and down the left field line, respectively.

RE: Stanford Baseball 2025 - JJJ - 01-16-2025

I find it amusing that Sasaki is listed as “first base” and nothing else—not a lot of defensive versatility (either that or DH). I suspect Nati will be moved to one of the other IF spots.

Not a big deal, but frosh pictures were being taken today, so their mugs should be updated soon. :)


RE: Stanford Baseball 2025 - PVTree - 01-16-2025

Are there any retired numbers in Stanford baseball? 9?

9 was the first to be retired, in 2017. May 8 be next, in about 20 years!

Stanford picked 8th in the ACC


RE: Stanford Baseball 2025 - Mick - 01-30-2025

ACC seems like a strong baseball conference. Five of last year's Top Ten in RPI were UNC (#4), FSU (#5), Clemson (#8), NC State (#9) and Virginia (#10). Wake Forest (#14), Duke (#20), and Ga Tech (#45) are all in the Top Fifty. That's some impressive baseball.

DI Baseball Rankings - RPI | NCAA.com

The Top 100 contains Louisville (#61), VaTech (#68), Notre Dame (#79), Miami (#81), Pitt (#88), Boston College (#89).

Cal was #64, Stanford was #156. 

SMU hasn't played baseball since 1980. Syracuse hasn't had a team since 1972.

Bob, any idea if home games will be livestreamed? Especially the non-ACC games.

Are we really ranked this low??
What happened? How did we drop so fast so quickly? 
Didn't we make 2 of the last 3 CWS?
Is the sky falling?

The team went 22-33 in 2024. That tends to have an effect on RPI rankings.

Thanks Mick, I'll take it as the sky isn't falling, at least not yet.
The truth lies somewhere between #22 and #156
