From Ann Arbor to The Show!
Cameron Weston made his Major League debut with the Baltimore Orioles last night, becoming the 91st Wolverine in program history to reach the big leagues.
#GoBlue
Michigan Baseball with one of the more impressive starts to the season in the country.
Go 4-0 in Puerto Rico, outscoring #2 Virginia, Rice, Nova, and Stetson by a score of 35-7
This weekend they have TCU, KState, and Arkansas at Globe Life 🔥
Michigan’s three weekend starters from the 2019 NCAA runner-up season — Jeff Criswell, Karl Kauffman, Tommy Henry — have now all made it to the MLB level. All from the state of Michigan, too.
Very impressive.
For the first time since 2010, @ClemsonBaseball is headed to the Super Regional round with a dominant 12-5 win over Coastal Carolina.
#Clemson was outstanding throughout the weekend. @aaronfitt put it well -- CU is on a mission.
Michigan’s expected schedule next year:
Ohio State
Texas
USC
Penn State
Oregon
Washington
UCLA
Wisconsin
This may be the most wild schedule I’ve seen in a while. Conference realignment coming at the same time as the expanded playoffs is no coincidence.
Lots of B1G/SEC programs will have schedules like this. Insane.
