Kanush!

I've never really been a big baseball fan, but I've been watching the College World Series regularly the past week or so. It took the Fresno State Bulldogs to make it into the CWS for me to care about anything in college baseball. They weren't supposed to be there, but they won the WAC tournament, then went on a long run of upsets over teams ranked in the top 25. They beat Long Beach St., San Diego (twice), Arizona St. (twice), Rice, North Carolina (twice) and Georgia (twice) for the championship.

This makes Fresno State the lowest seeded team to win a NCAA National Championship in any sport ever. They also tied the record for total runs in the CWS with 62 including 14 home runs in their 7 games. And all I can say is it was the first time I've really enjoyed watching baseball.

I hate baseball too, but I watched 7 innings of that last game. I think I even had a dream inspired by the wunderdogs.

Levi slept in a red and blue shirt with a baseball and mitt on it in honor of the team.
