Titan struggle

The Titans lost their eighth straight CWS game over five appearances. They went 0-2 in 2007, 2009 and 2015.

“We’ve lost a lot of first games (this season) and won a lot of second games,” Vanderhook said. “I wish we were playing tomorrow. I wish we didn’t have a day off. They’d like to get right back on the horse, but we don’t get to do that.”
