Finishing 57-4 and 10-0 in the NCAA Tournament, this team deserves to be in the discussion as one of the best teams ever.

Definitely. 10-0 in the tournament, with five wins coming by the run rule. A tournament scoring differential of 91-16 (32-8 in the WCWS). Only allowed more than three runs four times all year, while scoring double digits twenty times. A number two pitcher who is one of the best in the country and a number one pitcher who is one of the best dual threats of all time. And an offensive lineup to match. Very nice to see them close the deal last night.
