Texas walked off the field victorious after beating Boston College 3-2 in 25 innings on Saturday night in the longest game in NCAA history, according to an Associated Press report. ?Every inning, we felt like we had a chance to win it,? Texas second baseman Travis Tucker said. ?And every inning, we thought we were going to win it. It ended up happening in the 25th.? Tucker?s RBI single with one out in the top of the inning helped Texas put an end to the game that eclipsed the previous record of 23 innings, set in 1971 when Louisiana-Lafayette defeated McNeese State. Texas reliever Austin Wood pitched 13 innings, including 12 1-3 of no-hit ball before allowing a two-out single to Tony Sanchez in the 19th.

With San Diego State leading 2-0 in the bottom of the eighth inning, Stephen Strasburg suffered a lower-back cramp and was forced to leave the game. "It just cramped up on me. Obviously, you sweat a little bit out here in Texas, and I wasn't keeping enough fluids in me ---- that's all," Strasburg said. "I was trying to fight through it, but it was kind of at the point where it was cutting off my delivery." Said SDSU coach Tony Gwynn: "I think he'll be fine and I don't think it's anything major. We saw him wince, and he said his back was tight." Strasburg had six strikeouts and gave up three hits.

San Diego State's Stephen Strasburg struck out 17 on Friday night in the first no-hitter of his illustrious college career. Strasburg, the expected top pick in June's First-Year Player Draft, led the Aztecs to a 5-0 win over the Air Force. "I was giving everything I had left," said Strasburg of the ninth inning. "In that last inning, I think my stuff was the best it was all game. It was great to see a bunch of fans come out again, especially possibly for my last home night. To finish it like that was very memorable." Strasburg allowed just two baserunners all night, both via walks.

This year marks the 150th anniversary of the first-ever college baseball game, and the game will be re-enacted in Pittsfield, Mass. "I've proclaimed Pittsfield 'Baseball's Garden of Eden,' " Pittsfield Mayor James Ruberto said. "Our respect and our love for the game is every bit as rich as you would see in Boston or St. Louis or Chicago -- the true baseball cities in our country." The game was re-enacted on Sunday morning in Pittsfield.

With a record crowd at Santa Clara, Stephen Strasburg struck out 12 batters over eight innings, while allowing no runs and just three hits. ?I haven't seen anything like him in the college game,? Santa Clara coach Mark O'Brien said. ?In fact, I don't think I've seen anything like him in the big league level. We've seen him three years in a row and that slider that he throws, that's a lethal pitch. That's as good a combination as you're going to see at any level.? Said right fielder Kevin Madden: ?That's the best pitcher we'll probably face in our lives. His fastball is as fast as it gets and his breaking ball just drops off the table.?
