How to watch, livestream Louisville baseball vs. Texas A&M in NCAA Tournament super regional
The Louisville baseball team is two wins away from its sixth trip to the College World Series, but the Cardinals find themselves with their backs against the wall in the process.
Dan McDonnell and the No. 12 Cardinals trail No. 5 Texas A&M 1-0 in a best-of-three super regional series that began Friday night and ended in the wee morning hours Saturday thanks to a dramatic bases loaded walk-off single by the Aggies' Troy Claunch ended a 5-4 opener in the bottom of the ninth at Blue Bell Park in College Station, Texas.
Texas A&M (41-18) now needs one win to punch its ticket to the College World Series, while the Cards find themselves in a familiar position of having to stave off elimination for multiple games.
Louisville (42-20-1) reached the super regional round with an epic comeback against Michigan on Monday at Jim Patterson Stadium. The Cards took an early 7-2 lead, squandered it after a lengthy lightning delay and then rallied to win 11-9 on the strength of a Cameron Masterman home run in the bottom of the eighth inning.
