Omaha, Neb. — The magical postseason ride continues for Michigan as the Wolverines have advanced to the College World Series championship series with a major statement and will play for a national title.
Michigan, making its first appearance in the World Series since 1984, will have a few days rest before facing either Vanderbilt or Louisville when the best two-of-three series begins Monday night at TD Ameritrade Park. The Wolverines haven’t won a baseball national title since 1962 and their only other came in 1953.
Behind a two-home run performance by senior first baseman Jimmy Kerr, the Wolverines mauled Texas Tech, 15-3, on Friday afternoon before 20,944, to remain unbeaten in World Series play.
