RE: Stanford Baseball 2025/26 - Papa John - 05-03-2026

Still a football score? It's 18-10 with Stanford batting in the top of the ninth.

Barring a miracle comeback, this will be the third game in a row that Stanford was ahead in the bottom of the 6th and let it slip away. Brutal.

Unless we begin a very long winning streak starting on Wednesday vs U San Francisco, we're back to the extreme longshot of winning the ACC tournament in order to make the NCAA tournament.

Rintaro, thank you for making my day a little brighter! 18-13.

And so it ends. Score 13 runs and lose by 5. Although Stanford made a couple of errors, all 18 of ND's runs were earned.


RE: Stanford Baseball 2025/26 - TonyLima - 05-03-2026

at this point, I think it’s safe to say that the postseason is out of the question.


RE: Stanford Baseball 2025/26 - TonyLima - 05-06-2026

If I read the box score correctly, Stanford scored three runs on bases loaded walks. Stanford 12 San Francisco 5.


RE: Stanford Baseball 2025/26 - Papa John - 05-08-2026

Stanford is playing a 3-game home series vs NC State this weekend. Stanford head a big rally in the bottom of the 8th, which began with a 3-2 Wolfpack lead.

Cort MacDonald singled.
Rintaro Sasaki walked.
Jimmy Nati struck out bunting (don't see that every day--for a reason).
Charlie Bates singled, MacDonald scored.
JJ Moran doubled, pinch runner Rashad Hayes and Bates scored.
Luke Lavin struck out swinging.

Stanford with a 5-3 lead and hoping Trevor Moore can nail down the save!

Correction it's 6-3 Stanford. There's a partial power outage at Sunken Diamond, so the live stats are frozen. The game is still ongoing.

With two outs, NC State gets an RBI double. Now 6-4 Stanford, but the tying run is at the plate.

Troy Clardy just said that streetlights are out in Palo Alto.

RBI single up the middle. Now a one-run game. Of course this can't be easy...

Moore induces a groundball to shortstop who throws to second for the force out. 

Stanford wins, 6-5!

That's a 2-game winning streak. Let's make it 3 Saturday afternoon.

(If your power is out you are probably not reading this, but I hope you stay safe.)


RE: Stanford Baseball 2025/26 - Madera86 - 05-09-2026

Two innings, two ABs, two homers for Teddy Tokheim. Stanford leads, 5-0.

Tough toenails that we won't be treating other teams to our turf in the tournament.

I’m at the game. Can’t anyone here throw a strike?

I hope you don’t have dinner reservations. It could take a while.
T5, 5-2 lead but the bases are juiced with 1 away and Garewal on the mound.
(7BB so far in the game!?)

Make that a 5-4 “lead” with T5 continuing…

Now 5-5 
(With runners on 1st and 3rd, the man on 1st took off, Lavin threw short to Bates, who threw the ball back too high for Lavin to get the man breaking from 3rd.)

Only one of many. Yet, somehow, Stanford has not been charged with a single error today. Of course there’s still plenty of time.


RE: Stanford Baseball 2025/26 - BostonCard - 05-09-2026

Yeah, the wheels have fallen off, and NC State scored 12 unanswered runs to lead 12-5 in the eighth.

RE: Stanford Baseball 2025/26 - JJJ - 05-09-2026

According to Troy Clardy, Rintaro Sasaki hit one 476’10”. Possibly the longest at Sunken this year. Too bad it only counts as one run. 6-12 heading into T9.

This year? Should be in contention for all-time leader.


RE: Stanford Baseball 2025/26 - BostonCard - 05-09-2026

Yikes.  We lose 12-7, despite Sasaki’s home run.  Shades of the days when the Angels had Mike Trout in his prime, and he’d have 2 home runs and 6 RBIs in an 8-6 loss.

Hey, Teddy T had two today.

My memory is definitely suspect (and hyperbole was rampant) but I seem to recall Eric “Roscoe” Hardgrave hitting something closer to 500’ back in the ‘80s, or so legend had it (I think)…

Regardless of the state of your memory, giving all the details is good enough for me. Early 80s?

A 476' home run is incredible in this era of bats needing to be BBCOR 0.50 certified. There were some very long home runs in the unregulated aluminum bat era, but we're really comparing apples and oranges due to the different bat composition.

Excellent point. I’m old enough to remember the era of the grand slam in the 1980s.

Good point DC 86. 
And @TonyLima, I’m thinking around ‘81-‘83 for Hardgrave, since he was a couple years ahead. Rick Lundblade was my classmate and masher shortly afterwards.

Re rubber match v NC State. Top 5, Stanford on pitcher #5.

We catch a break. Top 5, 2-3, 2 outs, runner on 2. Ground ball headed for left field hits the runner.

Tokheim adds the finishing touches. Stanford up 9-4 going into top 9.
