(508 posts)1. Well, it is better to play baseball in the south
Too cold and rainy up here in Big10 country. The majority of American borm MLB players are from the south or west simply because they can play year round. Practice makes perfect. That being said, Go Michigan.

I know the Big 10 is not a traditional baseball conference. The last time one of them won the CWS was in 1962 (Michigan). I can't find out how many of them even went to Omaha. So I'm quite surprised that Michigan got in. They swept the number one team in the Super Regionals!

I quit watching the CWS when Arizona State was eliminated by Southern Miss.
