No matter what happens this year she better portal in some hitters what we have on the bench may be decent but no game changers. Leach girls and Faw are not going to take you anywhere near a championship.

agree but Karen will start Faw and both Leach’s no matter what we have coming in.

DRod will probably go into the portal since Faw took 2nd from her. And I don’t blame her. What an insult to lose your position to a player that has 2 or 3 hits all year. And she had tons of clutch hits for us all year

Better team era yes, but look at the offense…not as potent. Idk the numbers, but just from the eye test a lot of hitters (Milloy, Puni, Rodriguez, G) aren’t as successful as they were before. Puni is the exception just considering her shoulder surgery. We lost Beautae which was tough, didn’t expect Mealer to have as high of numbers considering the jump in competition, Nugent is good considering this is her first season get ample ABs, & Faw just can’t catch up to the pitching. That’s a lot of holes to fill.

Batting Avg is nearly identical
.293 last year, .292 this year.

DRod is probably hitting 40 or 50 points higher with 5 HRs vs 0 last year but has faded down the stretch

 

[Dadof2Vols]

Agreed. Was sitting in the outfield and that was an uncatchable hit. Sucks, but she made a valiant effort.

Then give us a weather report

 

[volplaya8]

Nobody is happy with what is going down but it’s crazy to start a game for a half inning when you know this wave of weather is coming…just more to be pissed about

 

[OrangePark]

Lightning but no rain. We left to grocery shop and walk dogs.

Thanks for the weather report. Keep us posted.

 

[OrangePark]

My twisted side thinks maybe Payton looked at the bottom of the lineup and said well let’s get this over quick.

Players are smarter than us and a lot of us thought that so I’m sure the players have some questions with the lineup also today

 

[OrangePark]

Well, Bama has one of the best pitchers. I don’t expect us to put up many points against her. Just enough to win.

Softball is runs not points, there pitchers got hit hard by everyone else in the SEC we just make her look like an all american

 

[volfaninbuckeyeland]

All Murphy needs to do is....Leave It To Beaver!

 

[kregman]

The game isn’t over yet and the rain delay may play into our favor. We will see if there is any fire left. Hope so.

Not so fast, someone will step up and be our Eddie Haskell

 

[anecwnrjcns12]

Radar looks clear

 

[William_77]

 

[OrangePark]

Still trying to figure out how Murphy will ask for them to review the weather delay

 

[OrangePark]

Is anyone at the game? How’s the weather, did they get a lot of rain there

Isn’t G a senior? If so DRod can move to 1st.

She’s like 5’ not the best option at 1B

I usually read through and don't pay much attention to all the negative comments but the things being posted after that grandslam is hard to ignore. I hate losing as much as anyone but come on these ladies and thier families (especially seniors) have worked, practice and sacrificed more than we'll ever know so they don't need people dissecting all their mistakes because they're doing it to themselves.
They don't want to allow homeruns or make errors but its part of the game.They need support from fans to help motivate them and pick them up not point out their mistakes. At the end of it all we which I hope isn't anytime soon I'm extremely proud of what this team has done this year.
I know most of the ones that constantly complain won't give a hill a beans about what I've written and some of you will want to argue with me which your free to try but you I don't need to argue since I'm right!

lol, beaver did not get hit hard in the SEC. the other maybe, her no.

 

[VOL_Lyfe]

There's no way to spin losing your own super regional to a 14 seed when you are the 3. Just no way.

 

[volman128]

Briski's stats aren't much worse than Beavers for in-conference games.

Might want to check the SEC stats because it might change your opinion, just saying

Throw the stats out the windows once postseason begins. Then it comes down to which team is clutch in the Big moments. LV have 7 more at-bats to prove if they're clutch or not. GBO!!
