2024 College Baseball World Series Recap: Texas A&M VS Tennessee Game 3

 Written by: Danny Albers 

The Tennessee Volunteers completed the comeback over Texas A&M to capture their first NCAA Men’s College World Series Title in program history. Tennessee beat Texas A&M 6-5 in game 3 of the Men’s College World Series. After two games in a row allowing Texas A&M to jump out to an early lead, Tennessee struck first in the bottom of the first inning when star second baseman Christian Moore homered down the left field line. However, Texas A&M would not go away so easily, and fought back like they did all season long. In the top of the 3rd, center fielder Travis Chestnut would reach on a bunt single to first. He’d get to second on a throwing error, and eventually steal third base with the top of the order due up. A&M lead off hitter Gavin Grahovac slapped a single to left field, scoring Chestnut and tying the game. Tennessee would waste no time in recapturing that lead. Tennessee first baseman Blake Burke would lead off the bottom of the 3rd inning with a double. After advancing to third on a ground out by Billy Amick, Dylan Dreiling would fly out to right center, scoring Burke and giving Tennessee the 2-1 lead. Tennessee wasn’t finished there, as their center fielder Hunter Ensley, right fielder Kavares Tears, and shortstop Dean Curley would hit 3 consecutive singles scoring a third run for Tennessee. It would remain 3-1 Tennessee until the bottom of the 7th. Tennessee left fielder and clean up hitter Dylan Dreiling would hit a two run homer to right field breaking the game open 5-1. Dreiling broke a NCAA world series record with his 11th RBI of the series. After Ensley would reach on a single, Kavares Tears would nearly leave the ballpark hitting a double and scoring Ensley for a 6-1 Tennessee lead. Texas A&M would chip away bit by bit at the commanding Tennessee lead scoring 2 runs in the 8th inning, and nearly completing a comeback scoring 2 more runs in the 9th. However Aaron Combs would rebound from the two runs, and strike out Ted Burton to clinch the championship for Tennessee with celebrities like Peyton Manning and Morgan Walling in attendance. An excellent game to cap off an historic run by the Tennessee Volunteers. Tennessee becomes the sixth straight SEC team to win the College World Series (Vanderbilt, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, LSU, Tennessee).

Clash at the Castle 2024 BreakDown

Image
  Written by: Danny Albers  WWE Universal Championship Match: © Cody Rhodes VS AJ Styles  Result: Cody Rhodes wins to retain the Title Star Rating: ★★★★★★★ 7   Interesting move to kick off the show with your franchise player Cody in an I Quit match. I felt like this might have been a big reason why the fans were so burnt out. There was a lot of excitement in this match, as the fans backed Cody the hole time, and even chanting “Fuck You AJ.” Cody and AJ readjusted their moveset to be a bit more creative and more devastating, as each move inside the ring should make the fans feel like the opponent will say I quit. They broke off into the crowd, brawling into the backstage area, something that I don’t remember seeing in this era of WWE in quite some time. They brought it back to the ring where AJ began to take control of the match and getting some serious heat with the crowd. He split open Cody who looked in serious trouble as a crimson mask covered his face. AJ ...

2024 Copa America BreakDown: The Semi-Finals

Image
  Written By: Danny Albers  The Semi-Finals have arrived in what has been a disappointing Copa America for fans of the US Men’s National Teams. To add salt to the wound, Canada has been on a run of a lifetime, and now has another crack at beating Argentina. Colombia made a statement in the semi’s and now look to cap off a run of a lifetime with some hardware. Let’s break down both Semi-Finals games from this week.  Argentina VS Canada Result: Argentina wins 2-0  Besides Drake betting $300K on Canada to beat Argentina, was there anybody who really thought Canada was going to beat the 2022 World Cup Champions. The result was underwhelmingly the same as Argentina once again shut out the Canadians by a score of 2-0. I have to give Canada credit, this was better than I think anybody could have imagined them fairing against Argentina on a big stage like Copa America. If Argentina beats Colombia in the final, we have to look at Manchester City’s Julian Alvarez as someone wh...

2024 Euro Cup: BreakingDown the Quarter-Final

Image
  Written by: Danny Albers  The European Championship is heating up. We are getting one of the most significant matchups in recent history with Spain playing the host Germans. Two powerhouses in France and Portugal battled, eventually needing penalties to settle things. England and the Netherlands found another way to survive their own individual struggles to live for another day. Let’s take a look at each game and break them down individually.  Spain VS Germany   Result: Spain wins 2-1  Spain killed the hopes of the German faithful in attendance for Friday’s Quarter-Final against the host country Germany. This was one of the few times that Spain was outmatched in possession control and shots. Germany came out aggressive and pressured the tournament favorites. In the 51st minute, Spain struck first with a goal from Dani Olmo. It looked like Spain might escape with the narrow victory but Florian Wirtz scored in the 89th minute to send the crowd into a frenzy. The...
