Love how this team finds a way to respond offensively when facing a pitcher who is pitching her all-time best and we can't seem to figure her out. There's almost always someone who steps up and clears the bases with a bomb or a huge base hit. Last night it was Emerling. Next time it may be someone else. This team may be Patty's most potent offense ever (and that's saying a lot). And the pitching staff is starting to look solid. Berzon seems to be coming around; she pitched a really good game last night. If that continues, our pitching will be good enough to compete against the other top tier teams in the SEC.

Anybody else notice that Alani makes more errors in every game than she made all of last season together. She literally can't catch a ground ball now. Got a boyfriend or what? Probably lucky that Nelly got hurt, because I think Barker would be playing second at this point.

Offensively, this is Patty's best team or at least one of her best, it appears. I say "it appears" because her Coleman class teams that won 4 titles in a row, were elite offensively in the post season and how this team will fare can't be known at this time. The power on this team, particularly the freshmen, is something to behold.

This year it is K. Wells, but I think we will see A Parker and maybe Daniels also be home run monsters before they are done.

BTW, wait until you get to see the Goose Hutchins kid next year. Simply unreal. She may be better than anyone in this class and that is saying something. She may be the best high school softball player that has ever played in Oklahoma. Maybe anywhere.
