    Episode 122: Projecting the 2023 At-Large Bids

    Welcome to Episode 122 of The Podcast About Division III Baseball! In this episode, we do our best to project which teams will receive the 19 at-large bids to the 60-team 2023 NCAA tournament field. We perform a mock selection of all the teams just as the national committee will do ahead of the official selections at noon ET on Monday, May 15. This is never an easy task but we hope we at least made sense while making our selections! We look forward to seeing how wrong we are.

    Episode 121: 2023 3rd Regional Rankings + Bubble Check-In Ahead of Final Regular Season Weekend

    Episode 121: 2023 3rd Regional Rankings + Bubble Check-In Ahead of Final Regular Season Weekend

    Welcome to Episode 121 of The Podcast About Division III Baseball. The third and final public regional rankings were released, giving us one final look at how the committee views the best teams in each region. Some regions deserve far more conversation than others, but we touch on all the teams we deem at-large relevant during our bubble talk at the end. In order:
    Region I - New England (at 1:20) Region II - New England (at 1:50) Region III - New York (at 2:25) Region IV - Mid-Atlantic (at 3:25) Region V - Mid-Atlantic (at 4:50) Region VI - South (at 6:00) Region VII - Mideast (at 12:00) Region VIII - Central (at 13:40) Region IX - Midwest (at 15:35) Region X - West (at 18:15) Finally and most importantly (at 25:15), we go through and present where we believe the bubble currently stands if we assume all the favorites win their conference tournaments and which teams are in best position to claim the 2 Pool B and 17 Pool C at-large bids.
