Shatel: Press box has huge void without longtime CWS cleanup hitter

With that in mind, Piv, please tell the Big C to hit the showers. This is College World Series week. And we need you.

Unfortunately, there’s a void on World-Herald row in the press box. Steve Pivovar — husband, father, grandfather, mayor and historian of the CWS and our friend — is home, resting and fighting a disease that doesn’t fight fair.

Pivovar, battling kidney cancer, has been unable to attend this year's CWS event. Monday's match-up between Oklahoma State and Arizona would have been his 500th consecutive CWS game.
