MLB drafts a superstitious one

When Brandon Belt and Austin Wood were selected in the fifth round of the MLB draft Wednesday, it reminded GAG of the 25-inning regional they played May 30. And May 31.

Texas' victory over Boston College started on Saturday and ended on Sunday. Throughout the game, the Longhorns tried every rally cap and superstition in the book.

Texassports.com went around the horn, asking several players from that game for their take on superstitions. Belt, taken by the Giants, said he used to be superstitious but grew out of it. Wood, picked by Tigers three picks after Belt, said he puts his uniform on the same way every time, right cleat before left cleat and so-on.
