Lady Vols Softball Regional Final @ Noon ET

[Volfaninfl2]

Is there another game to be played today? I missed the call if so.

Supposed to be at 2:30, espn2 looks like.

 

[Hoosier]

any idea who has the broadcast of game 2?

I hope they play better in game 7 than game 6. They have a really hard time hitting a good pitcher they haven't seen before. It's now or never!

thing is, they saw and beat Pickett in the regular season, so not new to them

I love seeing batters from other teams swinging the bat with full extension if possible and full follow through with the bat wrapped around their back. LVs seldom do that.

We are going against a good pitcher that is why you set your lineup accordingly. If we had a left handed catcher she would have been in the lineup too.

Tenn LVs need to approach this next game don't think when batting. Just hit the damn ball.

The pitch the girl hit out for UNC wasn’t that bad a pitch we had plenty like that we did nothing with.

We had plenty of chances. Leach was stealing bases and putting us in scoring position. Rogers pitched a great game. She just didn't have run support. Hope Rogers can pitch a second game like that. She hasn't been able to do that B2B, but this is it. Highest stakes. Season on the line.

Osbron had a really great at-bat. I like her confidence to go out swinging. She was a centimeter from tying the game!

Okay... I feel like Tennessee has some momentum now, and I think the Lady Vols will advance after getting the win coming up.

Has the momentum? Considering UT is the higher seed and is playing at home by what definition could that be considered “momentum”?

We're starting Arnold? With the season on the line? Mkay.

 

[Volfaninfl2]

We had our chances, twice had a runner on 3rd. We’re at home, GO LADY VOLS!!!

Lol. So true. Maybe we can get some lefty coaches too.

I would start Osbron at short move leach to second and have pancini dp against Pickett. Gives you a couple more right handed sticks

 

[LA Vol]

We may start Arnold, but I'll bet Rogers relieves her. If she doesn't, then Arnold's pitching well, the LVs have players hitting and we're winning. LVs should be home team this game.

She may be our "lucky charm" & shock the softball world >>>> if our offense decides to show.

It’s the Bobby Cox school of coaching. Throw a bunch of left handed batters against a right handed pitcher regardless of their actual ability to hit. A good hitter can hit either pitcher

 

[Volfaninfl2]

Hope we’re not doing the same thing again, expecting a different result, epitome of stupid.

.........and right now too.

 

[W.TN.Orange Blood]

Lol........Arnold's first pitch is 8 feet tall.

Good D by Seggern.

Ya but they probably played 2 or 3 games against NC. It's not like playing an SEC team multiple times a season.

 

[Hoosier]

same lineup --- wonder about the batting order?

 

[Volfaninfl2]

We may start Arnold, but I'll bet Rogers relieves her. If she doesn't, then Arnold's pitching well, the LVs have players hitting and we're winning. LVs should be home team this game.

I’m thinking we might see Matty.
