Saw that coming a mile away when pac-12 dissolved and teams headed to big 10 and ACC. West coast schools took 3 of 4 top spots in Big 10 baseball tourney. Could have USC v UCLA in Omaha!

Client Jacob Odle turned out another 💎 last night for Palm Beach. In May through 3 starts: 15 IP 1 ER 9 H and 23 K with just 5 BB. Overall, sporting a 1.80 ERA. #movehimup

BUBBLE UPDATE: @RaginCajunsBSB, which was in our field on Monday, continued its sizzling hot play with a dominant 11-1 win over Marshall. @umichbaseball, which was the last team in our field on Monday, shutout Rutgers at the Big Ten tournament.

"I think I got Rexy right here." 😎 @ConnorOnion asked Cade Montgomery who was doing the best Morez Johnson Jr. impersonation during his postgame interview. @umichbaseball 🤝 @umichbball

Meet the first Orthodox Jew to play Division I @NCAABaseball. His name is Elie Kligman. From sundown on Friday until nightfall on Saturday, he's unavailable to play because he observes Shabbos. His teammates and coaches have embraced and supported him - they’re inspired by his dedication to his faith. "Thank God we have him."

A Special Group! Thank you seniors! #GoBlue

Nachas in action! Shabbat Shalom @ElieKlig ⚾ Chabad.org/5189458

"It's different... but it's worth it." Elie Kligman is a catcher for the University of Michigan Baseball team, and he is the first Orthodox Jew to play Division I NCAA Baseball. In a recent feature on the team, Elie's coach and teammates describe working with Elie's observance of Shabbat, along with making sure they can provide kosher food when on the road. Despite the unique sitation, Elie is loved and embraced by his team, and is even one of their captains. ✡️💜

Tonight we honor Elie Kligman! Elie has been with our program for less than a year but has made a huge impact including being named a captain by his peers. Forever, #GoBlue

@RussRamblin @ElieKlig @NCAA @SacStBaseball @arikligman @Chabad @ChabadOnCampus @RawlingsStevie Thank so much. We have much nachas and gratitude. Keep rootin’ the boys on!

@MLBAgent @ElieKlig @NCAA @SacStBaseball @arikligman @Chabad @ChabadOnCampus @RawlingsStevie Mazal Tov!!! Inspirational for both boys especially in today’s climate!

With that pitch, Ari becomes the 1st sabbath observant orthodox Jewish pitcher in @ncaa Division I ⚾️ history! And the 2nd player, following his big brother. Worked hard to get here. Many said could never be done. Thank you @SacStBaseball for the opportunity. #nocompromises

One of the best defensive catchers in the B1G and an elite human. Thankful our paths crossed. @ElieKlig 〽️

Incredible stuff. Cudos to @umichbaseball for supporting @ElieKlig

Take a listen to this interview with one of our rising fire ballers!

“Great locker room guy, he’s a great guy behind the plate, he’s just a competitor… he’s a one-of-a-kind athlete.” Being the first Orthodox Jew to play Division I @NCAABaseball has come with challenges for Elie Kligman, but his teammates and coaches have embraced and supported him every step of the way 💙 At The Plate x @umichbaseball

Choppin' it up with Elie Kligman 🎙️ #CollegeBaseballSeries | @CBS_Arlington | @umichbaseball

While infield stability was an early question mark for @umichbaseball, it’s become one of the Wolverines’ greatest strengths. Caitlin Moran with more details: michigandaily.com/sports/basebal…

Another Run! This time Kligman hits a sacrifice fly and Stressler scores! Michigan 3, Minnesota 0 | Top 2 #GoBlue

AK47!!!

One of the hottest teams in the country 🔥 Winner of six straight Big Ten series, @umichbaseball is up to No. 42 in the RPI and should be comfortably in the field as of today. 🔗 buff.ly/wCjnxzY
