Texas Softball 2024 - Farewell to the Big 12 (and back to OKC?)

[Js1 85,334]

MAC’s drop in great form, just groundoutx6, plus some strikeouts so far 

[Js1 85,334]

4-0 after 4

[TrashMaster G 17,555]

Bases loaded and 1 out and we only got one run?

No bueno.

[Js1 85,334]

8 ground ball outs. Mac, you’re doing perfect. 

[Js1 85,334]

Vivi solo

5-0

[Js1 85,334]

Texas should score 3 here so that a thing happens 

[Pato del Muerto 52,497]

Say no more fam

[Js1 85,334]

Second time I’ve seen a runner called out for not retouching the base when going back 

[Js1 85,334]

5-0 Texas after 5 

[Bevo&Pevo 5,142]

I'm gonna miss watching Reese play one day.

[perfectchaos007 6,639]

Sienna didn't get run ruled. Props to them for preventing any big innings.

[chiu1040 63]

For those that don’t know as much about softball, what was significant about the spin on Siena’s pitches.

[Js1 85,334]

2 out walk ends MM’s perfect game bid

They did get no hit though.

[Js1 85,334]

But the no-hit is complete

5-0 

Did not have Mac having the first postseason no hitter since Luna on my bingo card

[Bevo&Pevo 5,142]

Mac Morgan is in the buisness of putting hitters on the bench.  Brother, business is GOOD.

Ladies win!

Texas St defeats Penn St 4-2 with a 3 run rally in bottom of 6th.  Mullins pitched,  gave up a 2 run homer in top of 6th.

Will be interesting to see if Coach Ricci Woodard rides Mullins like Connie rode Luna.   Mullins pitched when Texas St defeated aggy earlier in the year.   Only other experienced starter is freshman Madison Azua from Round Rock.   

Postseason,  greatest time of year  ! 

[Cairn Horn88 8,264]

UCF, down 6-2…comes back to beat Auburn 11-6.

Probably will ride Mullins

[Js1 85,334]

St Francis up 1-0, top 3

Baylor won 3-1 over Ole Miss

 

[D3zii 3,678]

S.ELU with the win over a good Clemson squad earlier 

[Js1 85,334]

NW up 7-1 now. Go ahead and pencil them in for the winner’s bracket game against us tomorrow afternoon. 

[Js1 85,334]

7 seed Missouri tied 1-1 in the 9th with Omaha

OU has only put up 1 run in 3 innings against Cleveland State

Northwestern wins 7-2. Austin winner’s bracket game at noon 

Not every top 8 seed impressed that much offensively against the #4 seeded team in their regional - 3-0 Tenn, 6-0 Florida, 5-0 Texas, 

[Js1 85,334]

7 seeded Missouri in the loser’s bracket after a 3-1 Loss to Omaha in 9 innings 

[Js1 85,334]

Stanford in a battle with SMC. 7-6 Tree in the fourth. Hoping the burn Canady early and get fucked

Most really good hitters prefer speed to spin. At 43’ a couple of miles per hour makes a big difference. Spin is the great equalizer, especially when a pitcher can get late break on her pitches. Combine slight movement, with not being on time, and you get lots of lazy pop ups and weak ground balls.

Tree won 8-6

Canady pitched 5 innings of perfect ball with 10 K. Then Krause gave up 6 runs in 2 innings. Canady started, then they went to Krause, before going back to Canady to finish the game 

Stanford really has no staff. They have to ride her to OKC. 173.2 of 387 IP so far

[LTtxfan 49,186]

Highlights from yesterday

 

[Js1 85,334]

Northwestern used 4 pitchers yesterday, with Riley Grudzielanek getting the W in 4 innings of work. 

We will likely face off against Ashley Miller (17-5. 1.37 ERA) who worked 1 inning yesterday. So at least the coaches got to scout her some in person 

[Hard Times 302]

Seems really interesting they pulled Miller after she gave up 1 run in the first when she's by far their best pitcher. I'd rather not face Miller, but at least Texas got to see her. NW has nothing but film on Keegan or Citlaly, whoever goes today.

Guessing they wanted her to get some work, but didn’t want to waste her if they need to play 2 today.

Go time with Citlaly 

[Underdog 28,629]

What a dinky looking stadium... 

[Js1 85,334]

UK up 2-0 on OKST in the 1st

Souf Bama up 1-0 on Gata in the 1st

Liberty up 7-3 on Jawja in the 6th

SELA and Bama tied 1-1 in the 6th

Edited May 18 by Js1

[Js1 85,334]

CG strikes out a batter with 2 on. No damage 

[Js1 85,334]

No Ashley Miller. Grudzielanek instead. Interesting 

[Js1 85,334]

Georgia the second host team to lose a game, 7-3 to Liberty.  Both SEC 

Flames into the regional championship. Georgia has to work their way in 

[perfectchaos007 6,639]

Northwestern played the shift perfectly. Double play ends the inning

[Js1 85,334]

0-0 after 1

[Js1 85,334]

Lol runner was halfway to first before she realized she got called out on strikes 

[Js1 85,334]

1-2-3 for CG with 2 strikeouts 

Bama and SELA (not Ward) in the 8th now, tied 1-1

Beautiful pitch right at the knees.

[Underdog 28,629]

LadyKats had a chance to do some damage in 1st with bases loaded and no outs but only pushed two across, now OSU got 4 in bottom 1st to lead 4-2.  UK pitcher picking her nose watching catcher chase down foul popup and allowed a 4th run by not covering home. 

[Js1 85,334]

Cap!

2-0 Texas

When you gotta get something out, you gotta do it 

[Js1 85,334]

Action in the NW pen, but it’s still not B1G Pitcher of the Year Miller.

[Rickylovesweed 14,304]

Miller must have some type of injury. This doesn't make much sense. 

[Js1 85,334]

Henry!!!

4-0 Texas

On a train to Quebec City. Timing worked out well since the train took off 10 min before game time and has perfect WiFi 

Damn that was a good catch by the NW RF. Wowza
