Sooners coming to bat in the top of the 7th trailing 4-0. We only have 3 outs left to score 4 runs or we will have game three later tonight.

 

[womenssports]

top of 7th, still 4-0 Tenn., would love to see us score here

 

[SoonerNorm]

Èllis walked. Parsons at the plate, no outs.

 

[SoonerNorm]

Parsons popped out. One down.

 

[SoonerNorm]

Miller struck out. Two away. Wait, that wasn't Miller.

Yes it was Leslie Miller who struck out. Erin Miller got hit and is one first.

 

[SoonerNorm]

Miller got hit so runners on first and second. Martinez coming to the plate.

 

[womenssports]

Erin Miller hit by pitch, so two on and two out. Runners at 1st and 2nd

 

[SoonerNorm]

Martinez grounded out. Game three begins in a few minutes.

 

[SoonerNorm]

They just said the next game will start in 45 minutes.

 

[SoonerNorm]

It will be interesting to see if the same Renfro pitches the next game. She was outstanding in the earlier game.

 

[sybarite]

It will be Renfron vs Stevens again. Neither team has a sub they feel comfortable with. Hopefully, we can lay off the rise ball. That pitch seems to give our hitters trouble, going back to Traina. ASU has a pitcher with a rise ball that gave us fits, as does Baylor's pitcher. Our power hitters, especially, seem to be vulnerable to it. If we swing at the rise, we'll not score in the nightcap either.

Man I hate delays. Tech a few years back in football, you never know.

 

[SoonerNorm]

Game 3 will be played tomorrow at 2pm.

 

[sybarite]

Good. We need time to pull ourselves back together.

 

[Keller Sooner]

Very good point Syb. Lay off the rise. Most of them rise out of the zone anyway and would be balls. I hope Kelsey is good today and the hitters get her some runs. All or nothing today!

 

[SoonerNorm]

To combat the effectiveness of the rise ball, I would like to see our hitters try moving forward in the box.

 

[SoonerNorm]

Tenn didn't get a runner on base in the top of the first. Sooners coming to bat.

 

[SoonerNorm]

End of the first, no score.

 

[SoonerNorm]

Martinez drops an easy fly ball with 2 outs and a runner scored from 2nd. Just a dumb play.

 

[SoonerNorm]

We had the bases loaded but couldn't score.
