National Story on the matchup

Aaron Fitt writes; "Both these teams have played at an exceptionally high level here in Omaha during their 3-0 runs to the Finals. Vanderbilt’s pitching has smothered Louisville twice and Mississippi State once, allowing just six runs total in those three games for a CWS-best 1.67 ERA. Vandy is hitting just .217 as a team in Omaha, but its power has been a difference maker, as Vandy has four homers and five doubles in its three games.

Michigan actually leads the CWS in batting (.276) and on-base percentage (.398), and it is the only team that has not made an error in three games. The Wolverines also have allowed just six runs in three games, and their pitching staff is holding opponents to a .196 batting average. So while Michigan is clearly an underdog against the most talented team in college baseball, it sure isn’t playing like an underdog here in Omaha."

Talk about execution...
