Classic Sports Thursday

College baseball's major showcase returns to Omaha with a new home at Toronto Dominion Ameritrade Park in the Nebraska city's downtown.

Last year: As I'm driving home from Mass in C Major, and come home to watch Whit Merrifield close out Johnny Rosenblatt Stadium's last NCAA Championship game with an 11th-inning hit to score Scott Wingo. The current Royals prospect (ironic, considering their AAA club moved to the suburbs with a new smaller stadium as their own field was too large thanks to college baseball's 24,000-seat capacity) scored the just-drafted by the Dodgers infielder who will close his college career with the new park.

From a perspective inside.

As new traditions begin, let's look at what might be the greatest way to end a playoff. 1996, Louisiana State down one to Miami (FL), runner on third, two out, bottom of the ninth. The way that game ended is a title decider that hasn't seen seen at the professional level.
