They destroyed our whole pitching staff.All 6 pitchers got a chance this weekend and just couldn’t get it done. Ryleigh had a nice 3 inning stretch yesterday. Gotta regroup. We can win all 3 of our remaining series. It’s about seeding and momentum going into post-season at this point. Gotta get a 10-15 seed and avoid being 16 which draws Oklahoma in Supers. We can win a bunch of our final 15. GA is the best team we’ll face the rest of the way save VA Tech.
Bender still has no movement on any pitch.....hoping the pitching coach with an off season to work with her would have made a difference.I guess we should be glad get one win the way the weekend went. If would have probably been a sweep without White stepping up yesterday. The big concern of course is the pitching. Bump in the road or edge of a cliff? Lets hope it is a speed bump.
The Weeklys built this program from pretty much the ground up and they’ll always deserve respect for that. But they missed their golden opportunity to start a dynasty by blowing that WCWS final series in 2007. Now half the SEC has caught up to us. I don’t think Karen will get us back to OKC ever again.

Wow: I was feeling good about this team not more than a week/2 weeks ago: Rodgers was back; we had, seemingly, more pitching depth than we've had in years; we had, in my mind, a better hitting team than we've had in years--though apparently the stats say otherwise But Rodgers has been getting hit, and our hitting is up, down, down, up--back down again today. And now the seaon is looking very iffy.
The second game of that Championship series was one of the most unusual I have ever seen. That year was the second year, where each team entering the championship series brought a clean slate. Up until 2006, a team's won and loss record came with them to the championship series. Of course we beat Arizona in one of our three victories to get to the series. Arizona got there from the losers bracket. Clean slate. We won the first game 2-0. In 2005 the series would have been over...but its 2007.
