In the third inning, it was good enough to strike out Seager twice: first by starting at his hip and then darting over to the inside corner at the last moment (this strike went uncalled, but it was one), then by starting at the bottom of the zone and skidding toward the dirt as Seager whiffed.

For all the hoopla over which program has signed the best class (spoiler: yet again, it will probably be Alabama) and which team whiffed on a prized in-state offensive lineman, often overlooked is how big a day this is for the prospects themselves, who, like so many other adolescents who are less gifted on the gridiron, are finally completing the large and much-celebrated process of deciding where to go to college.
