It’s in a memorabilia box in an attic.
@bigleagueswings Denny, you caught the last out to end the Moneyball A's. I remember you putting the ball in your back pocket as you went to celebrate. Do you still have that ball somewhere?.

I agree stuff happens. Easy for us to say also without all the info. That’s what makes this fun.
@bigleagueswings I understand that. But I’m saying if shit went south in the 9th, he would then be unavailable, then fans would be wondering “why didn’t kenley come in!?!?”.He hadn’t pitched in 3 days. He was loose. Shit happens.

@bigleagueswings 11th straight game you’d have to think saving some bullpen would be top of mind?.

Tough cuz general fan doesn’t know availability but when this happens makes you say hmmmm.
@bigleagueswings I agree, but also you got him up and hot. I wouldn’t have gone especially with the amount of pitchers they’ve already used tonight.

Incredible post game here from CCU skipper. He’s correct on so many levels. Getting shooshed by an umpire is unprofessional on their part. All it does is scream be confrontation. Then on that stage GTFOH.
I have massive respect towards Coastal Carolina Coach Kevin Schnall for answering my question thoroughly and using the postgame platform to explain his side of the story. “As an umpire I feel like it’s your job to manage the game, the National Championship game, with some poise,

That’s privy information only special people get those stories.
@bigleagueswings has to do a sit down one day and share his story of facing Nolan Ryan right when he broke into the big leagues. One of my favorite stories ever… one of his many!.
