  1. What really gets you beat is room service pitches against veteran hitters. This ain't Stanford in the other dugout.
  2. If Czech were a righty, she probably wouldn't ever see the mound in OKC. But I think we'll see her at some point. Hard for me to fathom complete games from all our starters. Hopefully she can stifle Parker, Boone or Coleman in a key spot. The final out of a championship would be a really nice sendoff.
  3. Speaking of recruiting, are Brister and Salmon our only two HS signees for next season? I assume Hannah Wells stays a year later.
  4. With Maxwell pitching we need lefty small ball, righty power. It's not complicated.
  5. I'm confident someone at Texas will play the QB position well during Lacey's college years. Whether or not that's Lacey remains to be seen.
  6. We (nearly) all saw that coming when Florida quit hitting. They desperately needed to get up 6-4 but couldn't. That was the difference.
  7. No serious threat of small ball from Florida makes them easier to defend. So does a generous strike zone.
  8. Had they gone up by 2, I'd agree. But no such luck. To me it's now a coin flip.
  9. Speed and short basepaths clearly are made for small ball. As noted, we have speed aplenty. We're extremely lucky to have had Stanford botch that rundown...not to mention their terrible E4 to get that rally started. But faced with the option of hitting Canady for power vs. getting errors from an infield that's been lulled to sleep watching her dominate, I'll take my chances with the latter every time.
  10. Somewhat overlooked in the praise of our pitchers in OKC is the team's tremendous defensive showing thus far. Scott's snag of that laser beam rightly is burned into our brains, but let's not discount yesterday's double play started by Kavan or the highlight catches we've seen this week from everyone in the outfield. We'll never know what might have happened if one of those had been a Boone-level misplay. On another front, you have to figure everyone at aggy is grinding their teeth over how well they hit our staff in Austin and how competitive they might have been had they made it to OKC. Poor aggy.
  11. Some of us were begging for small ball today, and we ultimately won with it. But let's not overlook what Joley Mitchell's bat has done lately to get us where we are. Her hit today was arguably the difference. She's really picked it up after a slow stretch.
  12. OU getting spanked in softball and their baseball team on the verge of being eliminated makes this an especially great day up there in the territory.
  13. Can't blame Gata a bit. It's also my expression after every ridiculous thing the Sooners do.
  14. My pulse is finally back to normal after that 7th inning closeout. I was fighting off this gut feeling that one of the final two Tree batters would guess changeup and creep one over the wall to tie it. Then...who knows? Glad those really bad ABs after the miracle rundown didn't end up costing us today.
  15. With runs so scarce, and with our speed, you have to make them play D on as many batters as possible. But for the moment, let's shut down their traffic.
  16. I wanted Bella bunting this AB. She and Maloney looked all out of sorts this time around.
  17. Next inning we score a couple runs. In the meantime, let's hope TK can continue to deal.
  18. Now...on to todays only game that really matters.
  19. Brito is a Grade A showboater. Struts more than a peacock.
  20. Use that leather thing on your hand.
  21. Can I haz run-rule rout of the "host" team? Not that I want to be greedy.
  22. I've never seen OU pitch worse. And I'm here for it.
