Griffen Paige made a desperate ninth-inning return to disturb an eight-inning game and the Wright State harassed Vanderbilts 5-4, which ended the top national seed from the NCAA baseball tournament in Nashville on Sunday.
Vanderbilat is the first number 1 overall seed that failed to reach the regional final round since the current tournament format was introduced in 1999.
Right State (40-20) Advanced the Nashville regional final against Louisville. Reders will have to defeat Louisville on both Sundays and Mondays to carry forward the super regional.
Pagi (2-3) threw an eight-plus innings of an one-hit ball for the right state, gave a domestic run to Body Johnson and allowed two runs and six walks with three strikes.
This was a completely different story for the vendorbilat starter Austin Ni (2–1), which gave four runs on four hits in the first innings and was replaced before the second. Boston Smith hit a two -run homer from NYE and Luke Arnold moved to the yard in the next bat.
After permission to walk on top of the ninth, after exiting the Pagi for the right state, the Commodore (43–18) returned with Mike Masarsini against Bulpen, which cut a 5–1 in half on two or two. Rustan Rigdon chased with RBI Ground-Rul Double, before Warren Hartzel flew out RJ Austin to end the game.
“We show a lot of hardness,” the page said the postgame. “Our mind never doubt that we can compete with anyone. These people are a good team, obviously, number 1 seed in the country, and we show and we had no doubt.
Vendarbilt won the college world series in 2014 and 2019 and was runner -up in 2015 and 2021. Composors found themselves in a elimination game after falling 3–2 in Louisville on Saturday.
