Schoch Factor, Episode 4: Everyone Is Apparently No. 1

Welcome to The Schoch Factor, a podcast featuring former UVA relief pitcher Stephen Schoch and Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman of @CespedesBBQ. Our first topic of the week is the unbelievable back-to-back walk-off performance by Kurt Wilson of Texas Tech, and everything that went into his epic steal of home and walk-off grand salami. Next, we dive into the spiciness surrounding Tennessee’s sweep of Ole Miss, and what we love about the increase of smack-talking across college baseball. Then, we talk about the tremendous goofiness involving the SEC claiming to have four different #1 teams in the country and how much players actually care about the rankings during the season. We take a break and hear from our latest big-time sponsor, “In-Game Naps.” We turn with our Show & Go segment covering our favorite moments of the past week, including a 4 HR game in the Ivy League, Tim Elko homering off Ben Joyce, in illegal bat, an amazing catch followed by a pitcher being a great teammate, a PFP nightmare, and Dudy Noble absolutely rocking. We conclude by going Beyond D1, with the astonishing story of Dordt pitcher Gyeongju Kim, who recently struck out 21 batters in an 11-inning complete game.
