PEORIA, Ariz. — The similarities between Nick Kurtz and Jac Caglianone are almost too numerous to recount. Both are left-handed-hitting first basemen with a ton of power. Both played for a big-time Division I program: Kurtz at Wake Forest, Caglianone at Florida. Both made it to the 2023 College World Series, and both lost multiple games in Omaha that June to eventual champions Louisiana State.
