4 RBIs after that Nae 2 rbi single. All with 2 outs. Clutch 

Elish has settled down. 5 K in the past 6 batters. 

Not a good Elish game. Walk walk HR to open the b3. 4-4. Same player too

Edited by Js1

Can't get the stream to work on my laptop or my phone so I'm gonna lean on you JS for updates. 

Not Elish’s Day. She exits with bases loaded, 2 outs, 2-1 count for Shae 

And wild pitch. 5-4 ASU b4

4-8 ASU. 

Sigh. 

Wheels off. 4-9

6-9 loss

3-2 weekend seems kinda shitty until you realize we are still 16-3 lol. But we have to look a lot better than the past 2 games against Minnesota and Tennessee

Disappointing ending to the weekend. They'll still go through some growing pains but the future is bright. I don't expect Elish to have many more outings like that. 

3 games against Minnesota (Massey #14; low-20s in the rankings) - FUN

They are 11-6 on the year
Losses to: Ole Miss, Tennessee, FSU (by 11 runs), 2 to Bama and Zona.
Notable wins: JMU, Cal, ND

.275 BA with 21 HR - going to be a real challenge for Elish and Bollinger with a propensity for letting hitters leave the yard (4 HR allowed each)
2.03 team ERA - ace Fiser has a 1.31 ERA and already almost at 100K

Texas' ERA rocketed up to 1.48, mostly because Elish went from like sub .3 to 1.48 after ASU torched her on Sunday. 

Alright, I'm new around here but trying to catch up.  I see all of the Oregon players that are playing for us this year, and I saw something on the old thread about a rule change in transfers.  Can someone fill me in on how that happened?

Transfer portal. No restrictions for lower sports or sitting out. Unless you transfer within your conference 

Wow!  I didn't realize that was the case.  So is that every sport aside from football and basketball?  Thanks for the education.

Most yeah. Softball for sure.

This team we play today seems to be a decent mid-major. We still need to sweep the double header 

But....of course.

They're ranked like #106 or so in the computers.  Not too bad for a mid-major

8-0 win in game 1 in 5 innings. Alcozer hit a HR

And 9-1 win in 5. Only run was unearned as Shae throws a no hitter!  First no no since Blaire’s that clinched our WCWS trip in 2013 

Oh and Shae is officially the first Texas freshman to start 6-0 in her career. Cat and Luna both lost after starting 5-0. Shae got a no decision in the loss to Wisconsin 

Tip the cap to hitting coach Kerry Shaw.

So happy for Bekah Alcozer.    She struggled at the plate for 3 years but one could see the talent was there.   Currently hitting .410.

Shaw eliminated the slap hitting methods for Hayter (.294) and DeMargosian (.273) and made them real hitters.    Good averages for role players.

He took a very good hitter in Jefferson and made her better - she's leading the team with a .478 average.  She's getting a hit every other at bat!  Alcozer is 2nd at .410 and leads the team in slugging at .744.  It's been a hitting resurgence for her.  Hathaway, post-injury, is at .361 and leads the team with 9 doubles.

As a team, we have more walks than strikeouts, which I love to see.  As you said, tip of the cap to Kerry Shaw.  I wasn't sure about him, but I like it so far.  

We have 5 games this weekend, here's what I'd like to see on the pitching side:

Friday afternoon - Texas Southern - Adams
Friday night - Minnesota - Elish
Sat afternoon - Texas Southern - Bollinger
Sat afternoon - Minnesota - O'Leary
Sunday afternoon - Minnesota - Elish

I'm ready to put Shae up to a "name" opponent and see how she does.

8-0 over TSU in 5

11th run rule in 22 games

Gophers showcasing some good defense

Yeah.... but I'm sure that they have some holes

We’ve had opportunities tonight. But earlier with a runner on 3rd and 1 out and we can’t get a SF is so fucking irritating. Losing a game 1-0 sucks. We have one inning left. 

Yeah this is over. Our offense is lacking. I’m not as confident as I was earlier in the season. Top 25 teams are shutting us down again and Elish walks way too many

Well thats why there's no infield fly rule in softball. Girls can't always catch them

That’s funny, never knew that. There is one in men’s & coed slo-pitch. 

1 fucking run. 🙄

There most certainly is an infield fly rule in softball, exactly the same as baseball.  It wasn't in effect because there were already two outs in the inning.

Guess I have just never seen it called in softball

How's is our recruiting going? We could use an above average 3B and SS.

6-2 win and a 7-0 record for Shae

We have 2 infielders coming in. I think both can play middle IF at SS

We’ve scored 3x as much as last night already 

3-1 after our UO transfers started hitting the ball after 4

Well, it was nice to get some hits off of the Gopher's ace, and a few mistakes by UM's defense.

5-3 final. Nice
