Is Chris Pendleton in the dug out? Found out via Twitter that yes, that was CP. Awesome. Love when programs embrace eachother Canham was the guest of honor and sat in the coach’s corner during the meet against Oklahoma State.

They'll have to get through Rutgers first. Natural rivals. When I think about South Central LA, Piscataway comes into my mind. New Brunswick is one of the most dangerous cities of its size in the country and Newark is just to the Northeast. New Brunswick/Piscataway and South Central have a lot more in common than Westwood/Pasadena.

Parker indicated on pre game show that in the history of our games with USC that we have never had more than a four game winning streak....and that we were at 4 before the start of today's game. Can that be right? Oregon State's first-ever sweep at Dedeaux was 2022. The Beavs won the series against the Trojans in 2021 but dropped the Sunday game, so the streak is now five. Oregon State lost the season-ending series against USC in 2019, including both the Thursday and Saturday games. Oregon State won both the 2017 and 2018 series but neither were sweeps. The Trojans took the Saturday game in 2017 and the Sunday game in 2018. Oregon State's last sweep of USC at Goss was in 2013. However, the Trojans won both the Friday and Sunday games in 2014 in a series win and the Saturday and Sunday games in a 2012 series win. USC swept the series in 2008. The Beavs won the series in 2007, winning the Holy Thursday and Holy Saturday games but losing on Good Friday. USC won the series in 2006, with the Beavs winning the opener and the Trojans losing the final two. Oregon State's only four-game winning streak against USC was the final two games 2004 and the first two games in 2005. Oregon State's five game winning streak is the Beavs' longest.

Well.....let's make it six for good measure!

Not much discussion here that I can see about the fly ball to the wall that Marcius caught and ultimately resulted in a double play. I kinda feel for the runner that was on first base as the play developed. He could not really tell if the ball was cleanly caught or if it hit the wall first. Did the ump make a call on it right away? I'm guessing the ump did not signal anything and therefore the runner had to assume he needs to stay on second base or run to third base. If the ump immediately raises his hand and thumb in the air signaling he caught the ball cleanly for an out then he must hustle back to first base. Seems like the guy was between a rock and hard place to me and not really at fault IMHO. The guy can't wait for instant replay. That was one crazy play!

Is that why the SC coach was so mad because the outfield official didn't call out decisively or immediately?

If the runner to second has stayed on the bag be would have been placed back at first after the no catch ruling was overturned

Finally watched it in the replays this morning. The runner made a mental error. If the ball had been caught, he had no chance to get back to first. If the ball had not been caught, gaining second was enough. If he had stayed on second, USC could have challenged harder and maybe had a case. But because he was sloppy, he was out any way that you look at it. To be doubled up like that sucks, but it was such a crazy play that one can forgive the runner for his confusion.

I don't think I can recall a more meaningful defensive play at Goss since Conforto made the shoe string catch and threw out the duck at home 10 or so years ago.
As the ball traveled, I did not think Dallas had a chance. As the ball came to the wall there was a thud, and I was looking around for the ball. Dallas immediately throws it back in and they tag the runner out. Only upon the replay on jumbo-tron was it apparent he actually caught the ball. Wow! The base runner would have been out regardless. He had passed second and would have never made it back to first to beat the throw. The runner must have known the ball was caught as he headed back toward first.
While speed helps, there was a hell of a lot of athleticism applied to the play as well.

But because he was sloppy, he was out any way that you look at it.To be doubled up like that sucks, but it was such a crazy play that one can forgive the runner for his confusion. Yep.... The runner's mental error was not staying with a foot on 2B. It's a pretty basic baserunning rule on a ball deep and away that the runner go to 2B and stay put. If the ball is caught he can easily return to 1B. If the ball bounces off the wall/free he easily can advance to 3B or maybe score. In this case, the excuse of the 3B ump making an incorrect call is lame. Runners should not be watching the umpire. He should have been waiting at 2B. Any doubt of a catch he returns to 1B. If his 3B coach waves him on, that is on the coach. The question on video review is will they actually look at the initial signal given by an umpire or just the play in question? The interesting call would have been if the runner had followed normal procedure, the batter runs to 1B, the catch call is then reversed by video evidence and the circus of determining A) Batter/runner not passing runner; (B) award of bases to each runner; (C) if any subsequent defensive plays should stand (ie- a throw is made that gets by a fielder that allows further advancement) or is the ball "dead".

I'm really surprised the ump called it a trap. That would be so hard to do while jumping up to make a catch. I don't know how you could call that a trap unless you are sure he caught it off the rebound, but all common sense when watching it would seem to indicate that it was a catch. If ruled a catch, we would have doubled him up on first.
Has anyone seen anyone trap a ball while leaping against the wall for the catch? I know I haven't.
