    His name is Gerry and he named his daughter Geri. That’s reason enough to continue hating him.

Ha, announcer just spelled out the final 4.

Kavan

Pickens

Canady

Landry

Those dogs will hunt. 

Kavan: 2 complete games / 14 innings, 0 ER, 227 pitches

Pickens: 2 complete games + a 1-inning start / 16.2 innings, 8 ER, 300 pitches

Canady: 2 complete games / 14 innings, 1 ER, 194 pitches

Landry: 2 complete games + relief / 18.1 innings, 4 ER, 310 pitches

 

The aces are back, baby! Today should be awesome - can TK and Canady pitch game 1 victories and not bother with testing the bullpens (or their arms) in if-necessary games? Can Pickens and Landry be effective after 300+ pitches in 3 of the last 4 days and pitching on back to back days after both threw on Sunday? 

No game 2 needed for Texas and Tennessee, so we chill until 6pm for Tech and OU 

Texas has advanced, winning their bracket 3-0 and outscoring Florida, OU and Tennessee 9-2 (both runs unearned)

Dumb question: are softball ERA calculations based on a 7-inning game?

Yes

For instance, TK has 64 ER in 189.1 IP - her official ERA is 2.37

64*7
Divided by 189.1

I was surprised to see the format of today’s schedule.  Didn’t want to keep changing locker rooms, or just want Oklahoma in both later tv slots?

They've always done it this way. Prevents something like Texas-Tenn needing a game 7, but having to wait for OU-Tech to finish first.  But if OU-Tech need a game 7 after playing their game, they would have to play 30 min later instead of a 3+ hour rest period. 

Speaking of, Tech needs to win game 1 today or it's likely over.  If OU figures out Canady and scores a few runs off her early, I'd pull her and play for game 2 than continue to let them see her.

I think we are pulling for Tech because Fuck OU.

Tech is our preferred opponent for a title

History says teams in their first ever champ appearance won’t win it. 2000 Sooners were the last team to do that

680 pitches and counting over the last 2+ weeks for Canady

If you alternate matchups, you run the risk of no prime time game.

Surprised OU is starting Landry.

Elimination. You have to go with your ace. Just like Tenn and Pickens. Unless you’re Tim Walton lol 

Like how she just goes about her business when she strikes out a batter. Canady and Pickens talk so much fucking shit.

Yea, other than the goofy librarian glasses and being a sooner... she's not too bad.

She's thinking about me

The Canady glazing is really something 

She took a giant bag. Get over it 

But it’s the Nijaree Canady Show, bro!

Tech up 1-0 and threatening still 

OU might be fucked lol. I think they will score 0-2 runs in regulation against Canady. So if they give up another, it's gonna be tough for them. 

Oh shit, rbi triple into the corner.  If Tech can push this 2nd run across it could be curtains.  Got any more fatties to ph to screen off a steal of home?

With Canady pitching, this is probably over.

Reese better be ready, Tech putting runners in motion it manufacture offense

Cant get in motion if they dont get on base. TK has got this. 

Not sure why Glasco put the bat in the hands of someone who hasn’t batted yet in the WCWS, maybe not even in the regionals. 

Yeah that was weird.  Win a runner on 1st and 2 outs maybe he wanted more power but then the runner ended up stealing 2nd and 3rd.

Fat girl at the plate with a runner on 3rd…

Yeah, I have no idea what he was thinking. (Because we definitely haven’t seen that before from TT.)

🙄

Pretty spot on quote from a poster at Red Raider Sports:

 

For those struggling for context. 

This is Texas Tech football in their first year under a new HC going up against Nick Saban's Alabama in the CFB playoffs and leading 21-0 going into the locker-room at halftime.

I mean, it’s not the same team as the 4-peat. It’s the same brand but this is a young team with very little WCWS experience.

Yeah but they are facing the best pitching they have ever faced during their 4 peat run. I think that is a huge factor.

You’ve just now noticed?

This feels over if they get a 3rd run here
