Winding down to game two

It’s an hour away from game time, and the nerves are starting to get worse for me.  I just can’t believe they are in this position to begin with. To think OSU is just a lone win away from college baseball’s biggest prize is just incredible. From finishing in sixth place in the Pac-10 to being a game away from winning another NCAA title has become one of college baseball’s biggest stories. I’m really at a loss for words here, and I could barely talk to people about it just because I’m so in awe right now.

Beavers are finishing up batting practice at the moment and I’m enjoying watching it to some good media lounge food up in the press box. The wind isn’t too bad today and is blowing to the east. It is pretty hot out today but not as bad as it has been. Thankfully, it is nice and cool up here and my pasty skin is safe from the hot Nebraska sun. A lot of fans are in the outfield right now waiting for someone to hit one out, and bit by bit, the stadium is starting to fill up. I talked to a writer from Iowa earlier that said there were people in line waiting at noon today. Talk about excitement and devotion! Well, I have to settle down here and prepare for hopefully will be a Beaver victory. See you ladies and gentleman, after the game.
