And we get to see him next week in the CWS. I can't believe I'm rooting for UGa.

Very excited about seeing him next week. The LSU game was fun to watch.

Did anybody see them show (I'm assuming) Beckham's dad...SAME FRIGGIN' HAIR! It was funny.......

So i guess GoBe had 2 HR today. Can anyone retrieve some video on these shots?

Beckham went 3-for-4 with a pair of home runs and four RBIs. To top it off, draftee Ryan Strauss had six innings of one-hit, shutout relief for FSU. Nice day!

So one of my buddies who goes to UGA just informed me that Beckham "slays puss like no other..." :lol:, thought it was kinda funny

offensively...beckham reminds me of "the passion"

 

Eww, don't sign him then, I heard Mel Gibson sucks at baseball

Can you imagine announcers having to explain the origin of that nickname if it really stuck? :lol:

I could see Jim Miller explaining it every time he bats, just like how he goes through the whole "Pronk" nickname origins with Hafner every freaking time the Indians play on Sunday Night.

he looks sort of like pete rose.

"Well, you see, Joe, as I understand it, young Mr. Bekham was quite the swordsman when he was at the University of Georgia...."

"You mean like, fencing?"

"Something like that. So anyway...."

Gordon is a stud

I know Beckham becomes the Sox best prospect. Does he rank in the top 100 overall?

Players very rarely seem to reach top 100 lists before they've shown stuff in the minors...they take in to account what level those guys are at when they make the lists, which is why the top guys are usually AA and AAA players.
