Unfortunately, TCU has been here before.
A year ago on May 12, Luken Baker injured his left arm during a collision after first base against Oklahoma and missed the rest of the season after having surgery.
The Horned Frogs won that night but lost the next two in Norman, Okla., and finished the regular season going 3-3 before going 3-2 in the Big 12 tournament.
But the Frogs were 36-11 and ranked No. 6 nationally year ago when they lost Baker. Their ticket to the postseason was already punched. TCU reached the Big 12 tournament semifinals and swept its way to a fourth consecutive College World Series.
