maybe time to start using wood....

AUSTIN -- Miami of Ohio set an NCAA Regional record for runs and had a record-tying 33 hits in a 35-8 rout to eliminate Quinnipiac from the Austin regional.

Both teams combined to set an NCAA Regional record for total hits (50), at-bats (101), runs (43) and total bases (80). The combined seven triples also tied an NCAA single-game record.

Brandon Hillier and Brian Canada each had five hits and four RBI. Paul Frietch hit a two-run homer and Will Reynolds added a three-run home run for Miami (45-17).

All 16 batters scored for Miami and all but one had at least one hit. Miami scored 12 of its runs in the ninth.

Miami's Matt Long (1-1) pitched five innings of relief, allowing four runs on eight hits.

Ryan Rizzo and Brien McGee had three hits for Quinnipiac (26-24).

Chris Wakefield (6-2) lasted just two innings, allowing eight runs on seven hits.

Miami will face the loser of Texas-Arkansas on Sunday.

Holy chit...that's amazing.

How long was the game, 5 hours????

No kidding. College baseball sucks that way because any pitcher that throws below 92 is forced to just pitch away, away, away.....and hitters are taught to just sit there and crush mistakes....end result: high-scoring games, boring games, hitters that can't turn on a pitch with wood, and pitchers who never learnt how to come inside.....

BAUS

Funny thing is Quinnipiac lost two games giving up 55 runs (lost 20-2 in the first), yet they actually led in both games. Talk about false hopes...

Two games? FIFTY FIVE runs?
