We’ll start with the Volunteers, who earned the top seed in the NCAA Tournament for the second time in the last three years after a brilliant run in the SEC Tournament that saw Tennessee lose its first game, but then bounce back to win the next four to claim the conference championship. Tennessee breezed through the Knoxville Regional 3-0 with a combined 33-12 margin of victory. Drawing a No. 4 seed in the Super Regional, the Vols beat Evansville 11-6 in the opener, but were then stunned by the Purple Aces in a 10-8 loss on Saturday to force a game three. Tennessee left little doubt on Sunday, crushing Evansville 12-1 and, like Virginia, advancing to the College World Series for the third time in four years and seventh time in program history. The Vols are led by First-Team All-SEC selections in second baseman Christian Moore and outfielder Dylan Dreiling and currently lead the country by a wide margin with 173 home runs hit as a team this season.

This will be the 12th time the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers meet in the World Series, the most of any two teams in Major League Baseball. While once a frequent match-up, it’s one that hasn’t been seen in over 40 years.
Ohtani was 0 for 3 before ripping a double off the right-field wall in the eighth. He raced to third on the play when second baseman Gleyber Torres mishandled Juan Soto’s throw, which became costly when Ohtani scored on a sacrifice fly by Betts that tied it 2-all.
Orel Hershiser — World Series champion (and MVP) with the Dodgers in 1988 — brought out the ball for the mound for the ceremonial first pitch ahead of Game 1. That year he won the NL Cy Young Award after leading the NL in wins.

Florida State’s relentless offense proved to be a little too much for North Carolina today, as they downed the Tar Heels 9-5 to end their season. The Seminoles took a 3-1 lead into the fifth thanks to a Drew Faurot RBI single and a pair of manufactured runs, but broke the game open with a four run-scoring singles.
Virginia led 2-1 after six innings, but North Carolina relief ace Dalton Pence threw 3.1 scoreless innings to keep the Tar Heels in it. The Cavaliers received a strong start from Evan Blanco in a losing effort. The lefty went 6.2 innings and allowed two runs on seven hits while striking out four.
There was surprisingly little doubt about the result of last night’s game after Texas A&M took a commanding 7-1 lead thanks to a five-run third inning that was aided by some shoddy Tennessee defense. True freshman Gavin Grahovac set the tone with a lead-off home run just three pitches into the game, while Kaeden Kent continues to be the Aggies’ best hitter. Last night, he went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run and four RBIs, and since June 8 he is 12-for-25 with two doubles and two home runs.
Future first-round pick Christian Moore set the tone early for the Volunteers with a lead-off home run to get the scoring started. After Texas A&M punched back in the top of the third and tied the game on a Gavin Grahovac single, Tennessee scratched across two runs of its own on a Dylan Dreiling sac-fly and a Dean Curley RBI single to take a 3-1 lead.
After two walk-offs yesterday, Kentucky this afternoon made it three-straight as it picked up its first walk-off win of the season. It was a clean, back-and-forth affair that saw the Wildcats leading 3-1 heading into the seventh inning after Nolan McCarthy hit a missile out to left field for a two-run home run.
The top of the eighth inning for the Volunteers was essentially a carbon copy of the seventh, as with two outs and a runner on first Cal Stark broke out of his 0-for-16 slump with a no-doubt, two-run blast over the bullpen in left field.
Texas A&M scored three early runs off Florida starter Liam Peterson, then held on even as Florida mounted a rally late. The Gators loaded the bases against Aggies relief ace Evan Aschenbeck in the eighth inning but could not scratch across the tying run.
North Carolina responded with four runs of its own, headlined by a Vance Honeycutt three-run home run home run, but that was all it would get for the remainder of the game. The ‘Noles got a pair of key insurance runs in the top of the ninth courtesy of back-to-back home runs by Jaxson West and Max Williams, while Connor Hults was sensational in relief and slammed the door with 4.1 shutout innings.
