00:02:37 Totally lays that in there.
00:02:44 Oh, and a bad miss there.
00:02:46 On the Alston trying to backhand it.
00:02:49 Dizzy heads on into two.
00:02:50 Tonight wishes he had that one back.
00:02:54 He's looking at the glove.
00:02:55 He's making sure it works.
00:02:58 [Inaudible]
00:03:00 See if California can capitalize on this.
00:03:04 Get those extra outs.
00:03:07 Need to make sure they capitalize on them and try to
00:03:09 put up a crooked number.
00:03:11 Here comes Isaac Gonzalez.
00:03:13 The middle infielder for California.
00:03:16 Totally delivers.

00:03:25 Nice swing there by Isaac Gonzalez.
00:03:28 First pitch swing and gets something he likes and tries
00:03:30 driving it out to left and just yanks it foul.
00:03:33 Isaac gets back in there, resets.

00:03:43 That's going to be a ball.
00:03:47 One and one.

00:06:50 Runners on first and second with Traylor up.
00:06:52 One down.

00:07:54 We got ourselves a tie ballgame at five apiece.
00:08:00 California stringing some offense here together.
00:08:03 The only out so far has been a sack fly by Pacheco out in the
00:08:08 right which scored the run in from third.
00:08:11 After Isaac Gonzalez hit a triple into the right field corner.
00:08:15 Here comes Ryan Ramirez for California.
00:08:20 Runners on first and second with one out.
00:08:22 Last time up Ryan Ramirez hit a laser beam out to the top of the
00:08:27 left field fence staying in.
00:08:31 He looks at ball one.
00:08:32 One out.
00:08:41 Ball two.
00:08:46 Totally testing the ceiling here early on.

00:08:54 Runners on first and second.
00:08:55 Natole delivers.
00:08:58 And so does Ryan Ramirez.
00:09:00 Absolutely murders it out into left on the grassy knoll.
00:09:06 Ryan Ramirez loves the stadium.
00:09:11 Guy's just been hot.
00:09:14 Absolutely owning the plate here again today.
00:09:17 There it is.
00:09:18 Great look back at that shot by Ryan Ramirez.
00:09:26 Ryan Ramirez with a three-run shot and California has an 8-5 lead.
00:09:31 Nice piece out into right center by Jeffrey Redden.
00:09:34 But great grab by Grisson Eno.
00:09:38 Oh, excuse me.
00:09:44 Is that Rob Banks out there?
00:09:46 Rob Banks in center with a great grab going over into right
00:09:48 center.
00:09:53 So you got two down now.
00:09:55 Bottom half of the second inning, 8-5.
00:09:58 Got to change up those positions on the lineup card.
00:10:06 Cabot Van Til at the plate with two outs.
00:10:09 Base is empty.
00:10:12 Chops that one, going 3-4.
00:10:14 Natole in a foot race.
00:10:16 And Van Til hustles out the box and he's safe at first.
00:10:25 Good hustle by Cabot.
00:10:27 Down the line, going 3-4.
00:10:29 The first baseman, Ricky Moyers, going to his right.
00:10:32 Natole comes off the mound quickly.
00:10:37 Looks like we're going to ask for a little bit of help here.
00:10:41 This is a bang-bang play.
00:10:44 There we go.
00:10:45 Nice job of Moyers.
00:10:46 Good backhand flip.
00:10:48 Natole in there.
00:10:49 Looks like on the replay, did get him by half a step.
00:10:54 But it is tough.
00:10:55 That's a tough one to over-call.
00:10:57 We're not going to go into the booth to get the call.
00:11:00 This is an MLB.
00:11:01 We're not going to send this to Secaucus.
00:11:11 But great hustle by Natole.
00:11:14 Get on over.
00:11:15 Nice play by Moyers as well.
00:11:17 That's why you hustle.
00:11:18 And that's a great piece there out into left center.
00:11:26 By Chad Erickson.
00:11:28 Cabot Van Til comes across to score.
00:11:30 Nice piece by Chad Erickson.
00:11:32 California capitalizes there on the hustle by Van Til.
00:11:35 Erickson out into left center.
00:11:37 Gap to score the run.
00:11:39 All the way around from first.
00:11:41 Nice swing by Erickson.
00:11:46 So we've got a 9-5 ball game here in the bottom half of the
00:11:48 second inning with two down.
00:11:49 We're going to have a quick little mound visit as Kyle
00:11:52 Senner is going to go out and talk to John Natole.
00:11:57 Good rocket there from Natole.
00:12:00 Great form, too.
00:12:01 You do want to make sure you get that nose away from your body.
00:12:04 You don't want any of that residual spray.
00:12:13 Hopefully these boys put on a little SPF 50 before the game
00:12:17 because that sun is bright.
00:12:18 The cloud cover has moved off the stadium.
00:12:25 Hopefully DW, he was down on the field.
00:12:27 He'll be back down there shortly.
00:12:29 Hopefully he put a little sunblock on.
00:12:31 He was out in the red quad all day yesterday.
00:12:34 He said he got some condensed games done as well last evening.
00:12:42 Looks like we've got the mound visits over.
00:12:46 Natole is putting his helmet back on.
00:12:51 Everybody is heading back to their positions.
00:12:54 We've got Brian Desorn coming to play.
00:13:00 Desi, the third baseman for California.
00:13:03 Runner on second with two outs.
00:13:04 9-5 ballgame.
00:13:05 California has put up eight here in the bottom half of the
00:13:07 second.
00:13:09 Nice first pitch strike from Natole.
00:13:15 Leans out towards the third base side.
00:13:18 Just missed that one.
00:13:24 1-1.
00:13:26 Natole, that one took a tough hop there off of Moyers at first.
00:13:34 Rookie wants that one back.
00:13:38 In between hops.
00:13:39 Got him on the short one.
00:13:41 Nice swing by Desi to go back side.
00:13:45 California is capitalizing here.
00:13:47 They've got two outs going their way in the bottom half of
00:13:49 the second inning.
00:13:50 9-5 ballgame.
00:13:51 They've put up eight so far.
00:13:53 Runners on first and third with two down.
00:13:57 Back to the plate.
00:13:58 Hit that triple out into the right field corner.
00:14:01 Elevates that one out to the left.
00:14:03 That's going to be the final out of the inning.
00:14:05 Not before California does some damage.
00:14:07 They take the lead.
00:14:08 They're leading by four.
00:14:10 Through to 9-5.
00:14:11 We'll join you with Virginia coming up in the top of the third.

00:15:41 here at the stadium.
00:15:43 Trey Porter leading off for Virginia.
00:15:56 Hits that one deep out to the left at the wall,
00:15:58 and that ball is gone for a solo shot to lead off the top of the
00:16:01 third by Porter.
00:16:04 Nice swing by the third baseman for Virginia.
00:16:08 Gets the first pitch he likes, opens up,

00:16:22 Top three.

00:16:27 Pacheco delivers.
00:16:32 Nice piece through the middle.
00:16:33 What a nice grab by the middle man for California,
00:16:36 but he is -- he held -- read and hit the -- held the bag.
00:16:42 Nice grab by Isaac Gonzalez.
00:16:44 Got it over there, and Jeffrey Reddin holds the bag with Osias
00:16:50 13 feet.
00:16:53 Nice backhand play by Gonzalez.
00:16:56 Gets it over there, and he did.
00:16:57 He held the bag.
00:17:00 Love this.
00:17:08 Ryan Ramirez and Brandon Jackson going back and forth,
00:17:12 having a little fun back there.
00:17:17 One down.
00:17:22 Cory Booth coming to the plate with one out in the top of the
00:17:26 third inning in a 9-6 ballgame.
00:17:29 Nice swing by Booth.
00:17:31 Oh, he got sniped coming out the box.
00:17:34 He can still get two.
00:17:36 Great swing down the left field line.
00:17:39 Just fair.
00:17:41 Cory Booth coming out the box gets sniped.
00:17:48 We got to check the roofs around here.
00:17:50 Maybe the trees.
00:17:52 Booth took it pretty good coming out of the box.
00:17:56 Probably would have had a triple, but he still ended up on two.
00:18:00 Here we go.
00:18:01 We got a quick look coming out the box.
00:18:03 Oh, just sniped out there.
00:18:06 Nice piece back through the middle by Josh Brown.
00:18:11 Hey, good little extra hustle by Brown.
00:18:17 He heading in, taking the extra bag.
00:18:20 Runners on second and third in an eventful half inning here so far
00:18:25 in the top of the third.

00:18:28 Virginia is chasing three with one down and two runners in
00:18:31 scoring position.
00:18:34 Here comes Aaron Stidham to the plate.
00:18:41 Pacheco delivers.
00:18:43 Stidham with a nice piece delivering out into deep left center.
00:18:47 Back against the DiMarini sign on the warning track for an out.
00:18:56 Does get Booth in from third on the long fly out into left center.
00:19:07 This wind has switched a little bit now too from where it was blowing in
00:19:11 the beginning of the game.
00:19:12 Now it's kind of shifted across out towards the left field corner.
00:19:18 And John Natoli pulls that ball foul into left field corner for strike one.
00:19:27 9-7 ballgame.
00:19:29 Runner on third with two out.
00:19:30 Natoli looking to help himself out here a little bit.
00:19:42 You'd like to get this run in from third at least.
00:19:44 You'd like to get this game tied up here before you grab the gloves.
00:19:47 Nice piece by Natoli back through the middle.
00:19:49 9-8.
00:19:50 Great swing by John.
00:19:52 Go back through, take the hole that's there,
00:19:54 and he's going to grab himself his runner.
00:19:56 He's going to head back into the dugout and get his gear ready for
00:20:01 pitching.
00:20:04 You've got Trey Porter going over to run for Natoli.
00:20:10 Rob Banks, the center fielder for Virginia.
00:20:19 Hard pull in the middle, in the infield, straightaway in the outfield.
00:20:23 Rolls that one over to the middle man, Isaac Gonzalez.
00:20:27 Grabs the hold of it, gets the final out.
00:20:29 Not before Virginia puts up three in the top of the third to cut the lead to
00:20:34 one.
00:20:35 9-8.
00:20:36 After two and a half.
00:20:37 We'll be right back with California coming up.

00:21:40 We'll say Space Coast Stadium as we're heading into the bottom of the third
00:21:44 inning in a 9-8 ball game with California leading by one.
00:21:49 Beautiful day here.
00:21:50 See those center field flags blowing in a little bit.
00:21:54 Bleacher flags are blowing out to left.
00:21:56 It's a unique wind pattern here at stadium usually.
00:22:00 Saw last night once the balls were getting past the bleachers towards the
00:22:03 end, it was -- the balls were dying.
00:22:06 Saw a lot of outfielders rerouting on some pretty good tracks.
00:22:11 Here comes Justice Aranda leading off the bottom of the third inning for
00:22:16 California.
00:22:18 Justice first pitch swing in backside.
00:22:20 Foul out of play.
00:22:22 0-1.
00:22:30 Justice digs in.
00:22:31 He's ready to go.
00:22:32 Natole tows the rubber, delivers.
00:22:36 Nice pitch by Natole gets Aranda to fly out to left field for the first
00:22:41 out.
00:22:42 Good comeback pitch there by Natole.

00:22:48 the third inning.

00:23:08 Delivers.
00:23:10 Nice piece by Pacheco.
00:23:12 Back through the middle.
00:23:13 Good bid by Porter who's now over his short.
00:23:25 Virginia is batting 12 here today.
00:23:29 So getting some movement around.
00:23:33 Running around first with one down and Dante Broom at the plate.
00:23:37 Looking to roll the top.
00:23:39 A couple guys on base.
00:23:41 Looks like ball one, 1-0.
00:23:48 Heavy again, 2-0.
00:23:50 Totally wanted that one.
00:23:55 Lays that one in there for a walk.
00:23:58 Nice job by Dante Broom.
00:24:01 Be patient at the plate.
00:24:03 Take the three-pitch walk and roll the top of the order with now a
00:24:06 couple guys on base.
00:24:08 And Brandon Traylor coming to the plate.
00:24:12 Big Traylor.

00:24:20 Natole delivers.
00:24:21 Traylor first pitch swinging.
00:24:23 And Rickey is just going to go ahead and knock that down and take
00:24:26 the easy out at one.
00:24:32 Nice job by Moyers.
00:24:33 Make sure he gets the easy out.
00:24:35 Make sure he gets at least one there.
00:24:37 Now you've got two outs.
00:24:40 Bottom half of the third.
00:24:42 And Demario Boyd coming to the plate for California.
00:24:47 Runners in scoring position for Boyd.
00:24:53 Let's see if Virginia can get this last out.
00:24:56 Nice eye by Boyd.
00:24:58 1-0.
00:25:05 Elevates that one foul and out of play.
00:25:07 1-1.
00:25:14 Totally looking to catch a miss here.
00:25:16 Get out of this inning unscathed.
00:25:18 California pressing.
00:25:21 Runners on second and third.
00:25:28 Natole delivers.
00:25:31 Nice swing by Boyd out into the right center gap.
00:25:33 But it's going to be caught by the right fielder.
00:25:36 Final out of the inning.
00:25:39 California was threatening but Virginia shuts it down.
00:25:42 9-8 after three.
00:25:44 We'll be right back in the top of the fourth.

00:27:19 - We're back in the stadium as we're getting ready
00:27:20 for the top of the fourth inning.
00:27:22 As tonight, Alston's gonna be getting it ready
00:27:27 for Virginia.
00:27:28 Pacheco delivers.
00:27:30 Just saw Sasha Killings walk by.
00:27:34 She was in that DeMarini commercial.
00:27:36 Nice swing by Alston Fowler to play.
00:27:40 Florida women in the majors are 1-0 in bracket play.
00:27:44 They played Georgia at 240 over on White East
00:27:47 and that'll be a great game.
00:27:49 - Come on, Warren, come on, Warren.
00:27:51 - Never had a chance to catch the Florida women's
00:27:54 major team, but I'm hearing a lot of good things
00:27:56 about them.
00:27:57 And they're playing some great balls,
00:27:59 so that Georgia game will be real good.
00:28:01 9-8 ball game here, top four.
00:28:07 Tonight, going back through the middle and Pacheco.
00:28:09 He's got some Velcro in there on him.
00:28:13 Tonight, going back through the middle and Pacheco
00:28:15 holds onto that, rolls it up into one of his hands.
00:28:18 Not sure which one it was.
00:28:21 But nice job grabbing that one, knocking it down,
00:28:23 getting the lead out there at first.
00:28:25 Top of the order here as Kyle Center digs in.
00:28:30 Pacheco delivers.
00:28:31 Center leans back, rocks with it,
00:28:34 sends it out to right field.
00:28:36 Kyle Center gonna head on over to tube,
00:28:38 throws on the brakes.
00:28:40 Retreats back to first base with a single.
00:28:43 One out single here for Virginia.
00:28:45 (crowd chattering)
00:28:48 Chris Ninos to the plate.
00:28:53 Runner on first, one out.
00:28:55 Top of the fourth inning, a 9-8 ball game.
00:28:57 Ninos digs in, he's ready, Pacheco's ready, he delivers.
00:29:08 Looks at ball one, one-oh.
00:29:12 (crowd chattering)
00:29:15 Great crowd here today, just seeing more
00:29:21 and more people show up.
00:29:21 And there's a nice piece by Ninos.
00:29:23 That ball's deep, that ball is heading back
00:29:25 to the warning track, out there!
00:29:27 It is over for a two-run shot!
00:29:29 Chris Ninos, nice swing by Chris to give Virginia
00:29:34 the lead here in the top of the fourth
00:29:35 on the back of a two-run home run.
00:29:37 10-9, Virginia now takes the lead.
00:29:40 One out.
00:29:42 Elevates that one, and that's where the wind switching
00:29:45 I think helped that ball out.
00:29:48 It's kept carrying, nice bid by the left fielder.
00:29:51 And now we're with Jacob Clifton.
00:29:57 And so that ball through the zone, one-oh.
00:30:02 Pacheco delivers.
00:30:06 Oh, and Clifton gets into that one!
00:30:09 It's that ball deep out into left underneath
00:30:12 the scoreboard for a solo.
00:30:14 Nice swing there by Jacob Clifton.
00:30:19 11-9 ballgame, Virginia.
00:30:24 Take a look at this, gets the pitch he likes
00:30:27 and just delivers.
00:30:28 Nice swing by Clifton.
00:30:32 Here's Brandon Jackson.
00:30:34 Nice piece back through the middle by BJ there.
00:30:38 He's gonna hustle in for a nice double
00:30:41 on the back of back-to-back home runs.
00:30:43 And an 11-9 ballgame, putting himself in scoring position
00:30:47 with one out in the top of the fourth.
00:30:49 James is stringing some things here
00:30:57 after a lead-off out by Taniya Alston
00:31:00 going back to the middle.
00:31:01 Pacheco makes a nice play.
00:31:03 Center gets on, and then Adinos hits a two-runner,
00:31:06 and then Jacob Clifton hits a solo.
00:31:09 And Brandon Jackson gets it going again
00:31:11 as Trey Porter's at the dish.
00:31:13 Pacheco delivers.
00:31:16 Trey looks at that ball inside, 2-0!
00:31:19 Nice piece, nice comeback by Mateo.
00:31:28 Does get the strike, full count.
00:31:30 Last pitch of the A.B. coming up.
00:31:31 Porter's ready, Pacheco's ready, delivers.
00:31:37 Rolls that one over to middle, Gonzalez goes down to get it.
00:31:40 Nice job by Reddin, good little stretch there.
00:31:42 Meets the ball and picks it easy.
00:31:46 Two down!
00:31:46 Two down on 11-9 ballgame in the top half of the fourth.
00:31:52 Virginia's been pretty consistent.
00:31:53 Put up two in the first, and then they've put up
00:31:55 three runs in each of their innings so far,
00:31:58 after the first.
00:31:59 Ricky Moyer's coming to the plate
00:32:01 in the first baseman for Virginia.
00:32:03 (ball thudding)
00:32:06 Ricky Moyer sends that one deep out into right field.
00:32:11 It is gonna be gone for a two run shot!
00:32:14 Nice swing by Ricky.
00:32:18 Opens up and delivers that one out into the palm trees,
00:32:21 and right.
00:32:23 13-9.
00:32:24 Nice piece, the only question on that one was
00:32:30 if it was gonna start diving down
00:32:32 and catch the top of the wall.
00:32:33 Hit that ball very well.
00:32:35 Corey Booth fouls that one off and out of play
00:32:42 down the left field line.
00:32:43 13-9, top four.
00:32:47 Virginia's now put up five.
00:32:49 Checo delivers.
00:32:53 Booth elevates that one into center.
00:32:56 Long run for the center fielder by,
00:32:58 thought he trapped it.
00:33:01 He did trap it.
00:33:02 (players talking)
00:33:05 Long run for the center fielder there.
00:33:08 He was playing deep, came all the way in.
00:33:14 Take a quick look.
00:33:15 Yeah, that was off a short hop.
00:33:17 I like the sell job though.
00:33:20 You're gonna do it, you might as well sell it.
00:33:23 You almost got away with it, Chad Erickson.
00:33:26 Great hustle out of him, coming in hard charging.
00:33:30 Probably just a half a step away from making a great grab.
00:33:33 Here comes Josh Brown.
00:33:37 Brownie with a runner on first, two down.
00:33:42 Looks at a ball inside.
00:33:46 1-0.
00:33:47 I don't think Erickson's gonna have trouble with that one.
00:33:53 It's a tip right at him and he's got it.
00:33:55 No, no damage done on that.
00:33:58 Nice sell job by Erickson but makes the final out.
00:34:01 13-9, Virginia puts up five in the top of the fourth
00:34:04 to lead by four.
00:34:05 California coming up.
00:34:07 We'll be right back.

00:35:26 - Stadium as we're heading into the bottom
00:35:52 of the fourth inning in a 13-9 ball game
00:35:54 where Virginia's leading.
00:35:56 And we're leading off here with California
00:35:58 in the bottom of the fourth inning with Ryan Ramirez.
00:36:02 Our first Winners Bracket game of the day on the broadcast.
00:36:07 Following this game we will be watching
00:36:10 Alabama take on Tennessee.
00:36:12 Natoli delivers.
00:36:14 Ramirez looks at that ball, 2-0.
00:36:21 He's gonna take the free walk, head on down to first.
00:36:24 Ramirez again just getting on base, lives on base.
00:36:30 Here comes the first baseman for California, Jeffrey Reddin.
00:36:37 Playing well over there at first,
00:36:39 held the bag earlier in the game.
00:36:41 Gonna throw the, pull them off a little.
00:36:44 Made that nice pick last inning.
00:36:45 Natoli delivers.
00:36:50 Reddin skies that one in the center.
00:36:53 Way in, long run.
00:36:56 That's gonna drop.
00:36:58 What a funky little ball that was.
00:37:00 That ball's gonna go into three.
00:37:01 Ryan Ramirez in there and Reddin's gonna take the extra bag.
00:37:04 Feel like Rob Banks came from Melbourne
00:37:10 to try to catch that ball.
00:37:11 He had a long, long route to go.
00:37:15 Tough first read, first one, couple steps back.
00:37:19 I think it was way short.
00:37:21 See there, Josh Brown going out to give a bid on it as well.
00:37:26 Just kind of found the perfect spot to drop it in there.
00:37:30 Not how Reddin was gonna draw it up, but it worked.
00:37:32 Runners on second and third now.
00:37:34 Gabby Van Til.
00:37:37 Hits that one out to right,
00:37:41 it's gonna score, Ramirez in from third.
00:37:44 These balls are dying in the outfield.
00:37:47 Looks like it's blowing in from right now.
00:37:49 Winds is definitely picked up here.
00:37:53 Looking at the bleacher flags.
00:37:57 See that's probably about a 15 to 20.
00:37:59 You can see that when they're sticking straight out
00:38:01 like that, they're typically pushing 18, 22 miles an hour
00:38:06 when you get up above the stadium.
00:38:08 Great shot there by Jordan.
00:38:13 One down, 13, 10, Virginia leads by three.
00:38:17 Got a runner on third.
00:38:19 Chad Erickson coming to play.
00:38:21 Last time up, hit a shot out to left center.
00:38:24 Ball inside, one oh.
00:38:27 Totally delivers.
00:38:31 Chad misses that one.
00:38:34 Trey grabs that.
00:38:38 No chance of tagging up from Reddin there.
00:38:43 It'd be a wild move if he did.
00:38:45 Tagging up from deep short.
00:38:46 But two down here in the bottom half of the fourth inning.
00:38:53 Here comes Desi.
00:38:54 Brian DeZern, runner on third, two down, 13, 10 ballgame.
00:39:01 California would love to get Reddin in from third.
00:39:04 And totally down to a knee delivers.
00:39:10 DeZern rolls that one to short.
00:39:13 Nice job by Trey Porter.
00:39:15 Comes up, firing, gets the final out of the inning.
00:39:18 Nice inning there from Virginia on both sides of the plate.
00:39:21 13, 10 through four.
00:39:23 We'll be back with Virginia coming up.

00:40:29 - Welcome back here to USSSA Spaceco Stadium.
00:40:32 We're into the winner's bracket side
00:40:37 of the men's major here on USSSAlive.com.
00:40:43 Thanks to everybody tuning in.
00:40:44 I'm Big Boy J. Rowe from Bring It Podcast.
00:40:45 We're watching Virginia taking on California.
00:40:49 13, 10, Virginia leads heading into the top
00:40:52 of the fifth inning with Aaron Stidham
00:40:55 leading off for Virginia.
00:40:56 (crowd chattering)
00:40:59 Gotta love when these clouds come back.
00:41:04 It just feels so much nicer.
00:41:06 Get a decent-ish cool, slightly breeze through the booth.
00:41:11 The fan might have to go on.
00:41:12 It's not as bad as it was during the World Series,
00:41:13 I'll tell you that much.
00:41:15 Here comes Stidham.
00:41:17 Pacheco delivers ball inside.
00:41:25 Nice swing by Stidham, deep out into left
00:41:29 against the wall though.
00:41:31 And that's the first out.
00:41:32 You can see right there, that ball off the bat
00:41:34 looked like it was gone.
00:41:36 Had a shot probably two innings ago,
00:41:38 but the way the winds shifted,
00:41:40 little rerouting and we get ourselves
00:41:42 our first out of the inning.
00:41:44 One down.
00:41:45 Here comes the pitcher, John Natoli.
00:41:49 (crowd chattering)
00:41:51 Pacheco toes out towards the third base side.
00:41:59 Ball one.
00:42:05 Nice comeback strike there by Pacheco.
00:42:15 One and one, one down.
00:42:16 Top five.
00:42:18 Oh, hits the plate and kicks way off.
00:42:21 Winner of this game will play the winner of the next game,
00:42:29 Alabama versus Texas.
00:42:31 Natoli rolls that one over to second
00:42:37 for the second out of the inning.
00:42:43 So two up, two down for Virginia.
00:42:45 Top of the fifth in a 13-10 ball game
00:42:51 here at the Men's Major Challenge Cup.
00:42:54 Here comes Rob Banks playing center.
00:43:00 Banksy looking to have a little fun with two.
00:43:05 Looking backside up into the stands.
00:43:10 Oh one.
00:43:12 (crowd chattering)
00:43:15 Rob Banks at the plate tonight, Alston on deck.
00:43:19 Flat.
00:43:23 One and one.
00:43:24 Tao delivers, Banks tries to catch Brew,
00:43:30 chase him, does it, nice job!
00:43:32 We got Traylor at first now.
00:43:35 Nice job there by Broom, was cheating towards the middle.
00:43:39 Banks tried catching him,
00:43:41 but Traylor with the big split.
00:43:43 Get that, get that man.
00:43:45 Little love, nice job by the big man over at first,
00:43:49 holds the bag, shows it off,
00:43:51 and rolls back into the dugout.
00:43:53 We'll be right back in the bottom of the fifth
00:43:55 in a 13-10 ball game.

00:44:38 - Welcome back here to USSSA Space Coast Stadium
00:45:04 in Vieira, Florida.
00:45:06 I'm big boy J. Rowe from Bring It Podcast.
00:45:07 We're heading into the bottom of the fifth inning.
00:45:10 Virginia leads California 13-10.
00:45:14 Big ball game here.
00:45:15 Offense, defense, seeing a little bit of everything.
00:45:19 Haven't really, haven't had, you know,
00:45:23 not to throw shade, but haven't seen a lot of great
00:45:26 two-sided games on the broadcast.
00:45:28 You know that New Mexico, New England game
00:45:30 was a good pitcher's duel in defensive battle.
00:45:33 Offense was not at a premium.
00:45:35 So good to see a good softball game here
00:45:37 to kick off our broadcast for the entire day.
00:45:39 We'll be here all afternoon into the evening.
00:45:42 And we got Isaac Gonzalez going now
00:45:48 and into left field, hard off the corner.
00:45:51 Isaac's gonna pull up at two
00:45:53 with a leadoff double for California.
00:45:55 Isaac Gonzalez having himself a day at the plate.
00:46:02 Good start here for California as they're chasing three.
00:46:05 They held Virginia to zero in the top of the fifth.
00:46:07 They'd like to change their number.
00:46:09 Justice Aranda at the plate for California.
00:46:15 Nice swing by Justice through the five-six.
00:46:20 That's gonna move Isaac up to three.
00:46:23 We're gonna have runners on the corners with nobody out.
00:46:25 Great swing there by Justice to take it and go five-six.
00:46:29 (crowd murmuring)
00:46:32 Isaac Gonzalez with nobody out, moves on over to three.
00:46:35 Great body shot on Isaac right there.
00:46:41 Here comes Mateo Pacheco, the pitcher for California.
00:46:44 And it totally delivers.
00:46:46 Pacheco, another good swing.
00:46:49 He's gotten up in some spots with guys in scoring position.
00:46:53 He's taken some great swings
00:46:55 to at least make sure he helps himself out
00:46:57 and gets the runner in or gets the runners over.
00:46:59 He's staying out of trouble at the plate.
00:47:01 Totally pumping, pumping, delivers.
00:47:08 That ball is elevated out to left.
00:47:10 That's gonna score Isaac in from third
00:47:13 and keep Justice Aranda at first.
00:47:15 Another great swing by Pacheco, changes the number.
00:47:18 They win the inning.
00:47:19 13 to 11.
00:47:26 And we're at the 11 hitter for California, Dante Broom.
00:47:30 Made that great play in the top half of the inning.
00:47:36 Was cheating on the pitch towards the middle.
00:47:40 Recalibrated, grabbed the ball
00:47:44 and got the final out of the inning on a quick throw.
00:47:47 With a great stretch from Big Robert,
00:47:49 or Brandon Traylor over at first.
00:47:51 Good comeback pitch by Natoli, one-one.
00:47:55 (players shouting)
00:47:58 Oh, there it is, there's one.
00:48:03 Broom's gotta hustle.
00:48:05 No, he doesn't.
00:48:06 He beats it out.
00:48:07 That's not, throw didn't get there in time.
00:48:09 Good hustle by Broom out the box.
00:48:11 Tough little swing there.
00:48:12 Goes right to the second baseman.
00:48:13 Was looking backside, but went right to Clifton.
00:48:18 And he beat it out.
00:48:21 That was an interesting skip in the first there, wasn't it?
00:48:25 Dante Broom, good hustle out the box.
00:48:27 And here comes the man with the splits, Brandon Traylor.
00:48:31 Big Traylor with a runner on, two down, 13-11 ballgame.
00:48:38 Natoli delivers.
00:48:40 Traylor looking backside, foul out of play.
00:48:43 Chris Nenos now catching.
00:48:54 As I said, Virginia is hitting 12,
00:48:56 so they've been moving around in some positions.
00:48:58 Traylor looks at that ball inside.
00:49:02 Natoli lays that one in there.
00:49:10 Nice piece of Traylor, but right to the shortstop.
00:49:12 Trey Porter for the final out of the inning.
00:49:14 California wins the inning,
00:49:17 but is still trailing the game 13-11.
00:49:21 Virginia coming up, leading by two.
00:49:24 We'll be right back.

00:50:26 - Welcome back here to U-SSA Space Coast Stadium,
00:50:31 13-11 ball game through five.
00:50:35 It's been a good one.
00:50:35 Been a very good game here, back and forth.
00:50:37 We see some good defensive plays,
00:50:39 some good offense as well.
00:50:40 We're getting some good crowds
00:50:43 throughout the park heading on over.
00:50:45 After some games are done in the quad,
00:50:47 seeing the state show up,
00:50:49 show support for other teams as well.
00:50:51 (crowd cheering)
00:50:54 13-11.
00:50:56 As we're looking at Tanai Alston
00:51:02 to lead off the top of the sixth inning.
00:51:05 Tanai hits that ball down into left field.
00:51:10 That's gonna get into the corner.
00:51:12 Nice lead off double here for Virginia from Tanai Alston.
00:51:21 Nice job by Tanai to get it going here for Virginia,
00:51:25 who'd like to grow their lead.
00:51:27 As he rolls to the top of the order,
00:51:31 as Kyle Center's getting ready to come up.
00:51:33 Kyle Center's had himself a nice little day
00:51:38 at the plate here so far.
00:51:39 He's gonna continue that, hits that one out in the left.
00:51:41 Not sure it's going to be enough.
00:51:43 It is and it's gonna be caught on the line there,
00:51:46 deep in the left, and it's gonna hold Tanai at second.
00:51:49 One down, top six.
00:51:51 Got Chris Nenos coming up
00:52:03 with a runner on second, one out, Virginia.
00:52:06 Leading by two.
00:52:07 They were quiet in the fifth inning.
00:52:13 Their first inning, they hadn't put up a couple runs,
00:52:15 and that's a nice piece back through the middle.
00:52:17 Isaac Gonzalez knocks it down.
00:52:20 Nenos is gonna be safe at first.
00:52:22 You got runners at first and second.
00:52:23 Nice job there by Gonzalez.
00:52:24 Almost came up with another great play through the middle.
00:52:28 So you got first and second with one out.
00:52:32 Jacob Clifton stepping into the box.
00:52:38 Blame Cliff Pool.
00:52:47 Through the infield, outfield is straight away.
00:52:50 That ball gets away from Ramirez.
00:52:52 Jacob Clifton elevates that one out in the left.
00:52:59 It's high, it's deep, but it's at the warning track.
00:53:02 Coming back in.
00:53:03 Moves runners over to two and three.
00:53:05 You can see, once that ball gets up and gets out there,
00:53:09 especially once it gets past the end of the bleachers,
00:53:12 it's really dying.
00:53:13 (crowd murmuring)
00:53:16 Gonna keep that ball out of the wind,
00:53:20 which it is blowing in from left.
00:53:23 Tough to get 'em out there this time
00:53:26 with the way the wind has shifted throughout this game.
00:53:29 Brandon Jackson looks at a ball inside.
00:53:34 One-O, runners in second and third, two down.
00:53:37 Virginia looking to change their number.
00:53:40 Nice swing by Brandon Jackson out in the center,
00:53:43 tailing away, but nice grab
00:53:46 by the center fielder, Chad Erickson,
00:53:49 to make the final grab of the inning.
00:53:51 That ball had some serious tail on it.
00:53:53 Erickson made a great track for the final out,
00:53:55 and Virginia goes scoreless in back-to-back innings.
00:53:59 We're taking another look here.
00:54:00 Erickson on his horse right away.
00:54:02 Makes another good diving grab.
00:54:05 We'll head to the bottom of the sixth.
00:54:07 13-11, Virginia leads.
00:54:09 (crowd murmuring)
00:54:12 (upbeat music)
00:54:17 (rock music)

00:54:50 - Welcome back to USSSA Space Coast Stadium
00:55:12 here in Vieira, Florida on a beautiful Saturday afternoon.
00:55:18 And the wind is doing wind things here at the stadium.
00:55:22 Started off blowing out, saw some home runs early,
00:55:25 and then it switched, and you're seeing
00:55:27 what we saw last night with some reroutes
00:55:29 once the ball's getting past the end of the bleachers.
00:55:31 It's starting to die.
00:55:32 We're starting off here with California
00:55:35 with their two-hitter, Demario Boyd,
00:55:37 gonna lead off the way in the bottom of the sixth.
00:55:40 California would love to grab themselves
00:55:41 a nice little lead here heading into the seventh,
00:55:44 but right now they're chasing two.
00:55:47 (crowd murmuring)
00:55:49 Natoli delivers.
00:55:50 Winner of this game will take on Alabama, Texas winner,
00:55:54 and that game will be next
00:55:56 here on the broadcast at the stadium.
00:55:59 Natoli delivers.
00:56:00 Boyd going inside out, nice swing, three-four hole
00:56:04 for a leadoff single for California.
00:56:06 Thank you.
00:56:09 Nice swing there by Demario Boyd
00:56:14 to get the party started for California.
00:56:16 And the way this man's been swinging the bat,
00:56:20 that's a great swing.
00:56:22 Get on base and put Ryan Ramirez in a spot to stay hot.
00:56:27 Ryan Ramirez walked his last at bat.
00:56:37 Natoli delivers.
00:56:43 Ryan Ramirez hits that ball in the center for a single.
00:56:46 He's gonna move Boyd on up to two.
00:56:48 Runners on first and second,
00:56:49 and Ryan Ramirez stays hot at the plate.
00:56:51 13-11, bottom six, nobody out here.
00:56:58 California chasing two in the bottom of the sixth.
00:57:05 Jeffrey Reddin.
00:57:06 Jeffrey Reddin steps in.
00:57:12 (crowd cheering)
00:57:13 Playing them pool through the infield,
00:57:15 straight away in the outfield.
00:57:17 Natoli delivers at a ball inside, one and O.
00:57:21 Nice pitch by Natoli, good pitch by Natoli
00:57:29 to get Reddin chasing that one,
00:57:31 but this one's a long track, but it works out.
00:57:38 As Rob Banks comes in again to make that one.
00:57:42 He's played a little more shallow since that last ball
00:57:45 that kind of fell into no man's land.
00:57:47 That wind knocking things down very quickly.
00:57:52 Nice job by Banksy.
00:57:56 Cabavan-Tills stepping into the plate,
00:57:59 runners on first and second with one out.
00:58:01 Bottom six, California looking to reclaim the lead.
00:58:06 (crowd cheering)
00:58:08 They held the lead until the top of the fourth,
00:58:14 where Virginia put up five,
00:58:16 and Virginia hasn't scored since the fourth inning.
00:58:19 California had one big inning,
00:58:22 and that was the bottom of the second, they put up eight.
00:58:25 Runners on first and second with one out, Natoli delivers.
00:58:29 Full count, last pitch of the at bat, one out.
00:58:32 Van Till looks at a ball inside.
00:58:37 Good eye by Van Till.
00:58:39 Now we got the bases loaded with Chad Erickson coming up,
00:58:43 and one down.
00:58:44 Good opportunity here for California to make something
00:58:47 happen, at least tie it up with a base hit.
00:58:49 If not, score Van Till into the gap.
00:58:59 Chad Erickson adjusting the bat and gloves,
00:59:03 steps into the box.
00:59:04 He says he's ready, Natoli ready, delivers.
00:59:10 First pitch swinging off the handle, misses that one.
00:59:13 That's a big miss there, good pitch by Natoli.
00:59:16 Boyd's gonna come across to score,
00:59:18 and we have a one run ball game, 13-12, bottom six.
00:59:23 (crowd talking)
00:59:25 13-12 and now, Brian Desernes coming to the plate.
00:59:39 One runner in scoring position, another runner on first.
00:59:44 That was a big out there for Virginia,
00:59:50 great pitch by Natoli to get Erickson
00:59:53 to fly out to shallow left.
00:59:55 Natoli Stoic delivers.
01:00:00 - Nice swing by Desernes,
01:00:03 but right to the first baseman, Ricky Moyers.
01:00:05 Who grabs that one for the final out of the inning,
01:00:09 and that's a big out there as it's 13-12 through six.
01:00:13 Virginia looking to add to their lead.
01:00:15 We'll be right back.
01:00:17 (crowd talking)

01:00:55 (intense music)
01:01:06 - Oh, look at that.
01:01:20 The birds nest up on the light tower.
01:01:22 That could be good at the, you know,
01:01:25 maybe in a cool Florida night,
01:01:26 keep that nest warm with those lights on.
01:01:29 You don't need it right now.
01:01:30 It's warm here in Fiera.
01:01:32 As we're heading into a seventh inning
01:01:33 of a one run ball game,
01:01:35 Virginia is leading California 13-12.
01:01:38 We got ourselves a good little ball game here,
01:01:41 gonna have a nice ending hopefully.
01:01:43 But Virginia is gonna get ready
01:01:45 and hopefully add to their lead.
01:01:47 California is looking to make sure
01:01:50 that doesn't happen.
01:01:51 - Wind has stayed pushing in from left.
01:01:55 - Here comes Trey Porter leading off
01:01:59 the top of the seventh inning for Virginia.
01:02:01 The winner of this game gets the winner of the next game,
01:02:04 which is Alabama versus Texas.
01:02:06 Should be a great one.
01:02:09 Trey Porter,
01:02:14 digs in.
01:02:17 (crowd cheering)
01:02:20 Missed inside, 1-0.
01:02:22 Porter lifts that one high, foul and out of play.
01:02:31 1-1.
01:02:34 Long run for Broome.
01:02:36 Hey, you gotta get your steps in.
01:02:40 Why not?
01:02:41 You might just be going for 20,000 steps in today.
01:02:44 Me, 10,000, right?
01:02:46 That's what they recommend.
01:02:48 That's what I'm shooting for.
01:02:50 Might be tough to get it today,
01:02:52 stay in this broadcast booth all day,
01:02:53 but we'll take some walks between games,
01:02:57 keep the legs loose.
01:02:58 1-1.
01:03:04 Porter's ready.
01:03:07 Pacheco delivers.
01:03:11 Ball inside.
01:03:13 (crowd cheering)
01:03:16 Mateo, nice comeback pitch.
01:03:20 Great swing by Porter out into left field.
01:03:22 Porter hard out the box.
01:03:23 He's gonna head over to two.
01:03:25 It's gonna be close.
01:03:27 Throw just a touch off.
01:03:28 Nice job by Porter.
01:03:29 Hustling out the box, wearing that cologne.
01:03:32 Lead off double here for Virginia
01:03:35 in the top half of the seventh inning.
01:03:37 That's exactly what you needed there for Virginia.
01:03:42 Great swing.
01:03:45 Right 6'10" out into left.
01:03:47 Comes out hard and came up firing too.
01:03:50 Throw is just off the bag there.
01:03:53 Ricky Moyers heads that one out into high and a center.
01:03:59 That's gonna move Porter on over to third.
01:04:01 Does the job, not ideal, not what you're looking for,
01:04:04 but one down and you have a runner at third.
01:04:11 Cory Booth coming to the plate.
01:04:13 An opportunity to grow their lead.
01:04:15 That ball's elevated down into left field.
01:04:23 That's gonna be foul and out of play, 0-1.
01:04:26 Booth resets.
01:04:36 Pacheco delivers.
01:04:39 Heavy.
01:04:41 1-1.
01:04:42 That's gonna score the run in from third, out into left.
01:04:52 Here comes Porter in and Virginia changes their number
01:04:55 for the first time in two innings as they score.
01:04:57 Porter, after his lead off double, couple of sack flies.
01:05:02 Move Porter in and it's 14-12, a two run ball game.
01:05:09 Top seven, two down.
01:05:10 Virginia would like to add a couple more to that number
01:05:12 as we're looking at Josh Brown coming into the box.
01:05:17 He's ready to go.
01:05:19 Pacheco delivers.
01:05:20 Nice swing, that's on a line.
01:05:23 That is gonna stay low enough where it's gonna drop
01:05:27 right in front of the left fielder.
01:05:29 Yeah, I don't know if that was, see that was the thing.
01:05:32 It stayed underneath the bleachers and it died.
01:05:35 Great swing there by Josh Brown.
01:05:38 If that was elevated a little bit,
01:05:40 might have hung up enough for the left fielder to grab it
01:05:42 and make it the final out of the inning.
01:05:44 But it's not and Aaron Stidham at the plate.
01:05:49 Looks at a first pitch strike.
01:05:52 Nice first pitch there by Mateo Pacheco,
01:05:54 the pitcher here for California.
01:05:55 He gets him the roll on over for the final out of the inning
01:06:00 in the second basement.
01:06:02 But we got ourselves a 14-12 ball game.
01:06:05 Virginia reclaims their two run lead
01:06:07 but California's coming up with a chance to win it.
01:06:10 Chasing two, we'll be right back.

01:07:12 - Welcome back here to UAAA Space Coast,
01:07:40 the San Diego Stadium.
01:07:41 I'm big boy J. Rowe from Bring It Podcast
01:07:43 and we're gonna have ourselves a beautiful bottom
01:07:45 of the seventh inning as California's coming up,
01:07:48 chasing two.
01:07:49 We're leading off with Isaac Gonzalez
01:07:52 who got himself a pretty good day at the plate.
01:07:56 Had that triple a couple of bats ago
01:07:58 into the right field corner.
01:08:00 Outfield straight up, shading slightly,
01:08:02 pull and that's a great way to start
01:08:04 out in the left for a lead off single.
01:08:08 (crowd murmuring)
01:08:11 Looks like we're gonna get a runner here.
01:08:16 Runner here for Gonzalez.
01:08:21 Little substitution action.
01:08:28 Not a bad move with how Gonzalez has been running.
01:08:32 We're looking at Justice Aranda.
01:08:36 Justice Aranda hits that ball out into center.
01:08:39 Rob Banks underneath it for the first out
01:08:43 and they can't advance the runner.
01:08:45 One down.
01:08:47 McGarvill running for Gonzalez.
01:08:51 Little substitution action.
01:08:54 One down, California chasing two.
01:09:00 Mateo Pacheco coming into the plate.
01:09:05 He's elevated the ball into the outfield
01:09:07 and some opportunities where he's been able
01:09:09 to score the runner in from third.
01:09:10 Here, he's gotta keep the ball out of the infield.
01:09:13 Natoli delivers.
01:09:17 That is a great, great swing by Pacheco.
01:09:21 Going one four.
01:09:22 Great swing by Mateo.
01:09:27 And we got runners on the corners with one out.
01:09:29 That was a wonderful piece of hitting there,
01:09:33 right by Natoli.
01:09:35 And Van Til's gonna go run for Pacheco.
01:09:37 We're at the 11 hitter for California, Dante Broom.
01:09:43 Broom looking to sweep these runs up.
01:09:48 Yanks that one down the left field line.
01:09:52 That's gonna be foul and out of play.
01:09:54 Oh one.
01:09:58 Good first pitch from Natoli there.
01:10:02 One down, California's chasing two, bottom seven.
01:10:07 Runners on the corners for California.
01:10:09 Broom looking to roll it to the top.
01:10:12 One and one.
01:10:16 Sounds like they wanted that one down on the field.
01:10:21 Nice swing by Broom.
01:10:26 It is going to hang up, but it's dropped.
01:10:29 Dropped and left, and that's gonna score
01:10:31 the run in from third.
01:10:33 And we got ourselves a one run ball game
01:10:35 at the top of the order for California.
01:10:37 Nice swing by Broom, that ball just held up enough.
01:10:44 Not sure what happened at the end there.
01:10:46 Looked like it just hit off the thumb.
01:10:48 Of the left fielder, Brandon Jackson.
01:10:53 Let's see if California can capitalize on that mistake.
01:11:00 Brandon Traylor coming to the plate for California.
01:11:03 Runners on first and second, one run ball game.
01:11:07 First pitch strike, nice pitch by Natoli.
01:11:11 Getting ahead of the count.
01:11:13 Natoli standing way off the rubber
01:11:20 over towards the third base side.
01:11:22 Delivers, gets Traylor to fly out into left.
01:11:26 Jackson camped underneath it, going into two.
01:11:30 You're not gonna get Broom,
01:11:32 unless he flies off the bag.
01:11:33 Van Til heads over to three,
01:11:36 so that moves both runners over.
01:11:38 You get runners in scoring position.
01:11:39 Winning run now on second.
01:11:41 And Demario Boyd.
01:11:45 Now up with two down.
01:11:49 California down to their final out of the game.
01:11:53 14-13, two down.
01:11:57 Runners on second and third, winning run at two.
01:12:00 Demario Boyd stepping in,
01:12:02 and you have Ryan Ramirez on deck.
01:12:05 This is a tough part of the order here
01:12:08 to get out for California.
01:12:10 Natoli delivers, Boyd hits that ball out into right,
01:12:15 and that's gonna be it.
01:12:17 That's the final out of the inning.
01:12:19 Final out of the game, 14-13, Virginia.
01:12:22 Scores one, and the top of the seventh
01:12:25 but ends up being the winning run.
01:12:27 Nice job by John Natoli there to get the W.
01:12:30 Virginia will play the winner of next game,
01:12:32 Alabama versus Texas.
01:12:34 We'll be back with that game.
01:12:36 Thanks for tuning in, we'll be back in a few.
