Cal State Fullerton, TCU clinch CWS spots

Cal State Fullerton and TCU wrapped up their NCAA baseball super regionals on Sunday and clinched spots in the College World Series.

The Titans and Horned Frogs will join No. 1 national seed Oregon State, No. 7 Louisville and Texas A&M in the CWS, which starts Saturday in Omaha, Nebraska. The three other spots will be filled Sunday night and Monday.

Fullerton locked up an 18th CWS appearance, and second in three years, with a 2-1 win in Game 3 at Long Beach State. TCU reached Omaha for the fourth straight year and fifth time since 2010 with a 8-1 victory in Game 2 over Missouri State.

Sam Houston State was at Florida State and Mississippi State was at LSU in Game 2s on Sunday night.

The second game of the Wake ForestFlorida super regional in Gainesville, Florida, was suspended in the bottom of the fifth because of rain. The game will resume at 1:04 p.m. EDT Monday with the Demon Deacons leading 5-4. Florida won the series opener Saturday.

In Long Beach, California, Fullerton's Colton Eastman pitched one-hit shutout ball over seven innings with eight strikeouts and four walks. The Titans managed only two hits against four pitchers. They scored their runs in the fourth inning when John Sheaks hit the first two batters with pitches and Hank LoForte singled both of them in. The Dirtbags' only run was unearned, coming on a passed ball in the sixth.

Long Beach State, which won five of six against Fullerton in the regular season, scored three times in the first inning of Game 1 on Friday but was held without an earned run over the last 26 innings of the series.

TCU's Evan Skoug, who hit the go-ahead two-run homer in a 3-2 victory in Game 1 on Saturday, and Elliott Barzilli both went deep in the Horned Frogs' win in Fort Worth, Texas. Brian Howard struck out 11 and limited the Bears to four hits in 7 1/3 innings.

The Frogs have won all five of their games in the national tournament. They're the fifth program in 30 years to make four straight trips to the CWS.
