The College World Series, consisting of the eight remaining teams in the NCAA tournament and held annually in Omaha, Nebraska, at TD Ameritrade Park Omaha, ended on June 25, 2014, with the final game of the best-of-three championship series between Vanderbilt and Virginia, won by Vanderbilt.
This was also the final season for several teams in their then-current leagues: The Philadelphia Phillies selected college juniors Ben Wetzler of Oregon State University in the fifth round and Jason Monda of the University of Washington in the sixth round of the 2013 Major League Baseball Draft.
Both entered into negotiations with the Phillies with the help of a financial adviser, which is against National Collegiate Athletic Association rules, but is "something that reportedly happens all the time".
The 2014 season marked the sixty eighth NCAA baseball tournament, which culminated with the eight team College World Series.
The eight teams played a double-elimination format, with Commodores claiming their first championship with a two games to one series win over Virginia in the final.
