The freshman Nola of Catholic High in BR strikes out looking, ending the inning with Tigers baserunners at 3rd and 1st. ESPN interview with Coach Les Miles up next!!!!!
Nola swings at a pitch two feet off the plate and then stands there and looks at the best pitch of the at-bat. He's now 4-14 in the CWS.
DARN! I don't pretend to be a baseball player, but if I have two strikes against me I am not just going to stand there with the bat on my shoulder and watch a ball go by me unless I know it is out of the strike zone. I am going to try to get at least a piece of it.
