Yes. And Tech didn’t see anyone else in our staff, for Sunday. If Canady goes again, we just saw her for 9 innings

You are correct about the defense, but Tech is a good offensive team. Javan was just special tonight. That was championship level pitching from both sides.

It most likely will be Canady vs Teagan again, won't it? Mac and Citlaly will likely go today so that leaves Teagan and Cam for tomorrow. I doubt Mike goes with a Freshman against Canady. It could also be a combo of all 4 if Mac and Citlaly don't get over-worked today. That would keep them off balance. I doubt Sophia goes because a couple of walks against Canady and you're toast. Maybe Simpson can get some innings in today and Mike can take a look at her control.

Nah tech fucking sucks all around. 

Canady is going to lose games just like Cat lost games. I hope there's a lot more just like last night. Just what she fucking deserves.

The other pitchers are going to have to step up - TK can’t pitch every game against elite competition. I’d start Mac against Tech on Sunday, if it were me

Same but Citlaly usually plays big in bigger games so you could go either way

Honestly, UMass is pretty bad. I’d probably roll the dice and give it to SS (maybe starting is better for her than coming in for the 5th inning) and then Mac or CG gets Maryland. The other gets Tech tomorrow.

I just don’t think Mike is going to give up on Sophia, let her eat innings against the really crappy teams that we should be able to beat 15-4

TK already at 22 IP - don’t need to pitch her arm off early in the season.  We also play 2 ranked teams next weekend

We've already shown we can beat Tceh with TK.  No need to do that again in a low stakes tournament game. I agree we should throw someone else against them on Sunday - we will need that later in the season when it really counts.

Plus there’s always the chance of seeing them in a super or OKC - don’t give them another 7+ innings of looks against TK. We already know we will likely see Canady again Sunday and again in a super or OKC - the more looks we get, the better.

Good game on ESPN2 - aggy and OKST in Clearwater. Aggy up 2-0, top 2

I don’t think Kenny G has the pitching horses this year.  Relying on another transfer to be the ace

Kenny G’s big crocodile tears about their OKC woes 

It’s all you, bro. You couldn’t do it with Maxwell or Kilfoyl

Ok St, trailing 5-2 going to B7, scores 4 with a walk-off HR to defeat aggy.  Hit it off their all-American lefty!  Wow!

Aggy gonna aggy

A whopping 3-0 win 

Gerry Glasco may be the best hitting coach in America. Canada will have more support  by the end of the season than she ever had at Stanford.

Not even top 5, come on man.  And he brought a slightly above avg. offensive line-up from a mid-major and is expecting them to be significantly better facing a P4 schedule?  Canady masks a whole lot of deficiencies on that team.

Mike speaks postgame about Canady.  (excerpt)   Article worth a read, though may hit a paywall. 

 

Quote

That’s a question White said his program discussed when Texas had initial talks with Canady’s agent.

“Not that she's not a great pitcher, but you're going to displace one of these other kids that are in there,” he said, naming some of his star players. “How are you going to bring her in ahead of Teagan Kavan? It's hard to say we're going to give NiJaree that and not give it to Kavan or (pitcher) Mac Morgan or (pitcher) Citlaly Gutierrez or any other players on the team, like a (catcher) Reece Atwood. You know, there's a lot of stars in this program and on the team.”

According to White, the NIL funds distributed to the Texas softball players are tied to endorsements, nonprofit appearances and other activities.

“It's not a handout, per se,” he said. “Our players are doing things like nonprofits and earning money that way. We want to continue to get these players opportunities to have NIL. I think NIL is a great thing for the student-athletes to have, but I'm not necessarily sure that it should be just pay-for-play.”

Canady had to throw 5 innings in Tech’s win over Maryland. She’s thrown 13 innings on the weekend and is gonna throw 7 more tomorrow?

Interesting to not have any commentary. 
 

pretty sure she caught that ball for out 3.

Andrew Haynes was supposed to do pxp for our 2 games, per the school’s release. Guess not

That was a stupidly long review
