Former ASU coach's final game stirs up emotions

But when the longtime fans of the College World Series hear the name Jim Brock and see the maroon and gold taking the field at Rosenblatt Stadium, they don't think about wins and losses, his two CWS titles in '77 and '81, or even his trademark "discussions" with umpires, which happened in nearly every game.

No, the image that sticks with the people of Omaha is of a frail, cancer-ravaged Jim Brock, feebly sitting in the Rosenblatt dugout, literally dying as he coached what would be his final game.
