Tennessee Softball 2023

Finally an inning need another run. Totally expect this to be a five inning run rule. Took a while to get some runs but were on our way now.

I guess many of us simply feel like KP could use a little confidence boost. Tonight would’ve been a great opportunity to do that to try and get her back on track before the competition gets even tougher. Ashely and Payton pitched almost all of last weekend. KP has barely pitched much in the last month. She needs the work. And it wouldn’t hurt to give Ashley and Payton the additional rest. No one is saying Ashley and Payton haven’t earned the right to start. We know they have and I think the majority of us trust them going forward. Karlyn needs to show she can be trusted right now and moving forward. We will need her if we want to make it to OKC.
We get it. You’re a Karlynstan. Noted.

A Karlynstan? How so? I made it very clear starting her last week vs SC would be a mistake. And if we were playing anyone other than NKU tonight I wouldn’t want her to start.

I get that, absolutely. But I have to think she may not have presented well in pre-game workouts and maybe Karen thought it might do more damage than good to start her.

Maybe get a huge lead and give her an inning later?

If you got to have someone pitch against a bad team to get confidence you’re in the wrong league. This is the SEC and you either have it or you don’t. At this point in the year most teams ride one pitcher and maybe two at most. This isn’t baseball you don’t need a pitching rotation. You ride your stallion at this point of the season. Maybe we should move the bottom of the order up in the lineup because they definitely need confidence hitting.

She’s s Freshman who is clearly struggling. She could use the confidence boost imo

Watching warm ups you can tell who the starter will be it was pretty obvious Payton was starting and Karlyn was warming up.
