I'm still not entirely sure how it happened, but the Louisville baseball team saw its season end with a 4-3 extra inning loss to Cal State Fullerton Monday night. No Omaha, no College World Series, no national championship pursuit.
This ranks right near the top of heartbreaking season-ending losses in my eyes for a handful of reasons: you've got the remarkably controversial call, you've got the feeling that Louisville was never really in danger until that call happened, and then you have the fact that this Cardinal team could have won a national title. Add all that together and it's understandable to still be hurting this afternoon.
