What is that cord that goes around the outfield? And how is it allowed to be over the field?

The ball Rios hit went behind that cord, which is pretty high up on the foul pole. I thought the ball changed direction after going over that cord and thought the replay view would show it was a HR.

As for the ending, it kind of makes up for the absurd 5 run 9th Texas had in Game 1. But man, I really felt bad for those Longhorns who couldn’t find the ball.

Yep.  We literally gave them game 1 in the 9th.  They gave us game 3 in the 9th.  We won an epic game 2.  No regrets at all.  Stanford is not a dominant team and has some real issues with pitching and base running but Stanford won this series and deserves to move on.

Cheers,
Pete F.
