A week and a half ago, I said Stanford Cardinal baseball needed to go 6-0 in their remaining 6 games to win 40 games, something the baseball program hasn’t accomplished since 2012 and while guaranteed they would host a Regional, they could move up into the top-8 for a national seed and would be guaranteed to host a Super Regional if they advance.
11 days later, Stanford players, coaches, students and fans woke up as a 40-win team that will host a Regional this weekend as the #8 seed in the country. That means if Stanford continues their magical run for Coach Marquess, his career will end for better or worse in the two places he loves more than anything: Stanford or Omaha.
