Welcome to Episode 21 of The Podcast About Division III Baseball. This is the fifth of our eight postseason regional preview podcasts -- this one focuses on the 6-team South Regional which will take place in Holly Springs, NC. We break down each of the six teams. In order:

  • #1 Randolph-Macon (at 1:19)
    • The Yellow Jackets roll into the regional coming off a disappointing ODAC tourney showing; can the Macon Machine get hot again quickly?
  • #6 LaGrange (at 4:58) 
    • The USA South champs will look to their pitching staff to keep them competitive in this loaded regional
  • #2 TCNJ (at 7:57)
    • The Lions boast one of the best rotations in all of D-III baseball; can they score enough runs to make a run at Appleton?
  • #5 Alvernia (at 10:54)
    • An impressive resume earned the Golden Wolves an at-large bid; how will they perform after a cold stretch to end their regular season?
  • #3 Denison (at 13:18)
    • The first regional appearance in Big Red history will be a tough one, but they've certainly got the talent to compete
  • #4 Christopher Newport (at 16:05)
    • One of the most underseeded teams in the tournament can knock dingers with the best of 'em, and strike out more batters than you can believe. Don't mess with the Captains. 

We conclude with our top players and pitchers to watch, and our pick to punch their ticket to Appleton (at 19:35). Then we say goodbye. Thanks for listening!
