There is pitching comparable to OK out there—Stanford and Florida State this season, just to name two programs. I think the biggest question is how do programs catch up to what OK is doing/has been doing offensively? I thought TN would push OK more than they ended up doing.

Stop hiring umps that don't know what the hell a strike zone is. That was some *** strike calls on the batters box chalk lines. Embarrasing. Call the damn strike zone properly!

Better stadium management, it's attrocious when you go... It's not organized very well on site and chaos line wise and flow management. Don't get me started on the weather delays and the ***

they pull when that takes place.

Actually do a Pre day world series fan fest the day before...stop sticking 12,000 fans in a small area with slow movements only two hours before first pitch. It all feels rushed and forced.

Up teams to 10, then give top two ranked a bye, and find a way to double up games so teams can't just rely on one pitcher to win it all.

Once again, for the love of god umpires. Call the actual strike zone correctly, AND illegal pitches "there were so many blatent ones that were just ignored" The ones that were called, were ignored and then called and then ignored again for the remainder.

Mayyyyyybe just maybe, when you know runs are limited and in high demand... Bunt players into scoring position so a base hit actually scores a run.

2 cents, got more, but we'll leave it there for now. :)

Would you go again ?

Hope my DD doesn't see the Savannah Bananas references. I haven't told her I haven't been able to get tickets to their game when they are in our neck of the woods.

I agree that 200 feet is too short. There are one-hundred pound middle school kids that can clear that.

A 100lb middle school kid can hit a ball over a six foot fence at 200-225 feet? Sure...let's see that.

In terms of the 2023 WCWS finals, this is an imaginary problem. 3 HRs total in 14 innings.
