    Elimination game for both teams

    Girouard ejected for an illegal second trip to the mound. She was going in to remove the pitcher, but technically needed to check with the umpire before making the second trip.

    LSU will be batting in the bottom of the 4th, down 5 to 0
    - left two runners stranded

    5th inning
    ASU 3 up, 3 down
    LSU coming to bat

    I didn't expect to go far as we lack pitching but got pretty excited when we were 2-0 and it looked like CSF might be able to eliminate ASU.

    ASU has fought back and their pitching is much better than ours. I sure hope the Lady Tigers can pull off a huge comeback win but if not, the future is bright!

    If LSU wins this game, it will move from semi-epic to fully epic :lol:

    It's going to be tough. Their pitcher has seen a lot of action in the last two days, so maybe she will wear out...

    First batter walks
    Long fly out, 1 out
    Sacrifice bunt, runner on 2nd, 2 outs
    Ground out to second

    I sure didn't think ASU could beat us twice in one day. I was looking forward to bringing my daughter down to watch them play next weekend...Oh well.

    I was hopeful as well. I think this team will be really good the next few years and was hoping they could get a little more experience this year by playing a few additional games.

    It also appeared they would've a decent shot at making the Women's CWS. That would've been nice.

    Well yesterday sure was fun! It's hard to be disappointed when you didn't expect to even be in this position, but after the first game and with NDSU on tap it really did look like the CWS was doable.

    With a deeper pitching staff next year, the Lady Tigers are going to be tough. Here's to being able to punch their CWS ticket!
