He's always had a decent pitcher so I am sure he'll find one for sure but we still haven't seen Salter yet and she was really good out of high school.
I think he most definitely need to make some adjustments but who knows what he'll do.
I think this early loss will help significantly in the long run.

Like Joka, I’m not ready to throw in the towel on the season yet but yesterday was pretty disappointing. Seemed like a continuation of last year’s regional. Inconsistent hitting by folks who have been here the longest. Also had the dreaded ‘lead off runner gets on; sac bunt to advance to 2nd; ground out to advance to 3rd then pop up to end the inning’ when runs were needed most. If this is the effort that shows up in Clearwater I wouldn’t be surprised to come away 0’fer in that tournament. Huge red flags with pitching but perhaps it would look better with some run support. Byrne was there watching fans stream out after Lehigh went up by 3 in the 7th. Georgia Southern batted out of order which killed one of their scoring rallies otherwise that game might have looked a little different.
A douse of cold water to kick off the season for Team 27.

Alabama Softball Splits Opening Day Doubleheader
The Crimson Tide rally from a 7-4 loss to Lehigh with an 8-2 win over Georgia Southern

Box Score vs. Georgia Southern (PDF)
From Head Coach Patrick Murphy
"The key word today was 'bounce-back'. Lehigh hit the ball, period. The three-hole hitter for Lehigh was their hero. She had the home run and she had the bases-loaded double. She got her hits when she needed them. We should have scored more runs. We got the two-run home run in the first inning and then they sit down nine in a row. To me, that was the key to the game. We played yo-yo softball, we scored and then they scored.
"I was really pleased with the second game, just coming back. Montana had a no-hitter going and then it was three straight hits with two outs. But then we scored three in the bottom, so it was a good bounce-back. Up and down the lineup in the second game, everyone did something positive. You're going to get hit with adversity, so it's all about what you do after that. We can't dwell on it - it's over with. They beat us in game one, so now it's about what you are going to do about it in the second game."

We lost to Lehigh folks. Their top 2 pitchers were better then anyone on Bama's team not named Fouts

For once , I am worried about our pitching instead of hitting

Somehow they were able to get game 1 in today. The wheels come off in the 4th for Georgia Southern and Bama mercy rules them in the 5th

What happened to our second game today vs Lehigh? I could not find it on ESPN+ and it should have started by now.

Thanks. That's what I suspected.

Kenleigh Cahalan will be one of the best freshman to ever play here.

Bama will be lucky to finish SEC play over 500. Fouts will have to pitch 2 of 3 meaning they will be close games like 1-0 or 2-1. The game she does not pitch could likely be a run rule loss.

God, I hate Murph. RBR does a good job of pointing out all the dumb shite he does.

The rage mob that forms on twitter if you so much as imply he's even a tiny part of the problem is absurd.

former players who did not transfer out will defend him on social media

I have to admit, I didn't expect the season to fall off the rails so soon. I expected us to at least make it to SEC play.
