WCWS Softball vs. fsu - game thread

[WarTiger 3,901]

routine base hit and it goes all the way to the wall. Draper broke the wrong way and fsu plates a run and its a triple. DAMN IT. Auburn leads 3-2

[AUDub 11,147]

Rats. Whitney misplayed that one.

[jared52 4,354]

Error comes back to bite AU. And Draper totally blew that and it's a triple. Tying run 60' away.

Gotten tighten this fielding UP.

[AU64 10,122]

Defense not helping....Should be out of this inning ...but not going to be easy it seems

[jared52 4,354]

Carlson stays in even though she is struggling mightily.

Defense is usually a strength. Been a big weakness so far.

[AUDub 11,147]

Rats

[telling tiger 156]

Yikes

[jared52 4,354]

Tie game. AU allowing FSU back in with mental errors. That's deflating. Can't believe they are leaving Carlson in. She's been ineffective today.

[WarTiger 3,901]

3 straight hits now and the game is tied 3-3.... CRAP...

[AUDub 11,147]

Nice catch, Tiffany. We needed that one.

[WarTiger 3,901]

finally Auburn is out of the inning. Going to the bottom 2nd, game tied 3-3.

Jordan, Draper and back to the top of the order with Howard coming up.

[AU64 10,122]

Carlson might be done... she is not fooling anyone....so it is a new game at 3-3

[jared52 4,354]

Carlson still getting rocked. Runners on first and second with 2 out. Have to pull her and start this game over. Big disappointment to have that huge HR erased.

Ball hit hard again, but just to Gioson's right and she can snag it. Relief to be out of that.

[AU64 10,122]

Change pitchers after once through the batting order ?

[jared52 4,354]

Giving up leads isn't something AU does much, so let's see how they respond. FSU grab the momentum back with several hits (and of course 2 runs).

[WarTiger 3,901]

Jordan grounds it up the middle off the glove of the pitcher and to 3rd and she throws to 1st. 1 out. Draper up.

[jared52 4,354]

Change pitchers after once through the batting order ?

Hope so. FSU squared up a lot of pitches that inning. They have to have gotten a lot of confidence at the plate after that inning.

[WarTiger 3,901]

chopper to 3rd. 2 outs. Tiffany Howard up.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Howard lines it hard up the middle, off the pitcher and into foul territory on the 3rd base side and Howard never stops and slides in to 2nd without a throw. Kasey Cooper up.

[NoALtiger 3,855]

Need a hit here.

[jared52 4,354]

Infield double for Howard. King tried to hit her in the foot with the previous pitch, Howard retorted.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Cooper pops it up in foul territory. After 2 complete, game tied 3-3

[jared52 4,354]

Coop chased a bad one there.
