First they had a lightning delay for 30 minutes, then a rain delay. Now they rescheduled the two semifinal games for Saturday morning before the title game that night on ESPN.

littlejon got out of a first inning jam but they knocking her around in the second. We down 2 with a runner on 3rd with 2 outs. Fielding choices hurt on one run.

in the OM top of the third they got into a deliberate rundown between 1st and 2nd. We were so focused on getting that out that the runner from third scored twice. This is shity play between our infielders.

our leadoff batter got to second and we could not move her over much less score. This is all on coaching. This early in the game we got to figure out how to manufacture at least 1 run.

They have more runs than we have hits.

from the get go this team seems to be content and ready to head back to ttown and get ready for the NCAA tourney. Littlejon had 2 really bad innings and the others were decent.

When your hitting is weak, you MUST manufacture runs when you get gals on base. That's on Murphy. What the hell is he doing??

Hope they have better luck in the big tourney. Ole Miss put that same pitcher out there every day, tough to score on.

We're making excuses. Doesn't matter who you are playing at this point in the season, everyone has a bad arse pitcher and most teams can hit. You'd better be great at one or the other and you can't suck at either or you won't last long. Our hitting sucks. We won't make OKC with the current situation. What pisses me off is our laid back CEO coach isn't even trying to disguise it or work around it or overcome it. Play small ball, be aggressive on the base paths, hit and run, do SOMETHING! Don't sit back and pray that Osorio or Littlejohn can throw a shutout. This year reminds me a lot of J-Train's junior year: if she got hit, we were toast.

twice our infielders were finger effing each other while the third base runner scored from third. This is typically dealt with at the HS level but our girls acted like they were middle schoolers. OUr SS is a senior and bats under 240. Really, we don't have a nother option at this position.

We looked pathetic, but you gotta give credit to that little OM pitcher. She was lights out three games in a row. Florida, Bama, then LSU.

I wish Murphy would get off his arse and recruit some offense for his pitchers....it has to be frustrating to them.

so Minn won their conference? If we make it out of this we would be pitted against UF right? Tall order there.

So Minn was ranked 2nd in the polls and isn't a top 16 seed? The Big Ten must be weak.

Take out the number 2 team and get the number 1 team, awesome.
