Obviously in basketball and football, the worst pro team would destroy the best college team. i think the same is true in mlb, but compared to the other sports, the best college team stands the best chance. thoughts?

The quality and experience of the pitching would be the difference. The MLB team would win 8/10.

Yeah. and the college team would have to use wooden bats, which would be really hard for some of them

Agred, TGM. but in baseball the best teams win far less than the best nfl and nba teams. i think that if the best college team played the reds 20 times a year, they would get a few wins. thoughts?

Not sure how you mean "far less". By winning percentage? That's due to the fact that MLB has the most parity of any of the big four leagues. I don't think the best college team could beat the Pensacola Blue Wahoos. And I think the difference between the best college team in baseball is much greater than football of basketball. Silly things could happen for a great historical college team to take out a poor pro team. Could 1991 Duke beat the Sixers of two years ago? Not on a regular basis, but you could have a freak game where Laettner, Hill and Hurley have great games and beat the grown ups. There's not enough pro capable players on a great college team to ever take out a lousy MLB team.

You're overlooking the chasm between college and the majors. Even the best players start out a couple of levels below the majors because as someone said, the pitching is on another level in The Show. It takes years to get good enough to hit that pitching. Just because baseball is the biggest "law of averages" game doesn't mean college would win many matchups.

To this foreigner, college baseball in the US seems to have a much lower profile than college football or basketball do. You hardly see any posts about college baseball on these boards or and I don't think I ever saw any on the old IMDb sports board.
