With everything that went on when Girouard left, Alleva hiring Torina assured I'd be following your girls this season. I wondered what JA saw in her to make the move. Considering you are in the Super's and playing head to head with a good Mizzou team, BT looks to be a good hire. Both games today have been good ones to watch. UGA has a one run lead in the top of the 6th over UT right now as you guys are tied with Mizzou at one a piece. Ol Blue just screwed over the Dawgs... Edit: Strike that, the Dawgs player at 2nd just screwed herself. I don't think I've ever seen a player have the ball in one hand, tag a runner with an empty glove. Have you?
Great! If Mizzou fans are complaining about hard tags in softball what the hell are they going to do when one of their receivers crosses the middle?!?!
still 1-1 in the top of the 7th. Mack is still on the mound for LSU (she has 9 K's, 3 walks and has allowed no earned runs on 4 hits)
Yeah once when I was umpiring a Dixie Youth Baseball game. One kid was my best friend's son and the other a close friend's I graduated with and played HS baseball with. Base ump made call, the friend from HS asked for appeal (I KNEW HE WOULD). Base ump let me have it. I overturned it b/c kid tagging did that (I had a better angle). It happened very quickly and the kid tagging touched runner with his glove, got spun around and tagged him with the ball after he'd touched the bag. Almost had to toss my best friend.
With Fico rested, you should have an advantage in this game. At least from the circle considering their pitcher is over the 150 pitch count for the day. Both teams looked mentally worn out by the 10th. I wonder how long they'll continue coverage on the U? They've got the Lacrosse final scheduled at the top of the hour.
