Softball vs. Georgia - game 1

I would love a grand slam here

[WarTiger 3,901]

Fagan walks again (3 time tonight) and Auburn scores a run.  Auburn leads 5-4, Bases still loaded with no outs for Shea.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Shea checks her swing and ball goes foul.  Home plate umpire says ball hit her and she goes to 1st. run scores.  Auburn leads 6-4, bases still loaded no outs for Kendall Veach.   I'm all for a grand slam here too, AUBwins

[WarTiger 3,901]

Veach strikes out looking.  1 out.   Rivera in to hit, grounds to 1st, throw home gets the force, throw back to 1st  and its wide of the base and gets away into shallow right and Auburn comes another run.   7-4 Tigers.   Runners on 1st and 3rd with 2 outs for Casey McCrackin.

[saminbama 740]

We need more than a 2 run lead with those Emanual sisters coming up hopefully in the 7th.

[WarTiger 3,901]

McCrackin walks and Auburn has them loaded again.  Morgan Podany due up.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Podany strikes out looking, but Auburn gets 3 runs and takes a 7-4 lead going to the bottom 6th.

[AUBwins 10,075]

One good base hit would have blown that open.  We ended with 2 Ks looking.  At least we plated 3.

[saminbama 740]

Too close to take.  You gotta fight that pitch off.  Give that pitcher a chance to walk another run in.

has happened many times this year against good competition. Just cannot get that big hit to blow a game open. Love being up 3 with 6 outs too go tho.

[CameronCrazy 1,059]

This team strikes out way too much!

[saminbama 740]

So we get the sisters  up in the 6th.  Let's get one out.

[WarTiger 3,901]

georgia gets some base runners after 2 outs and has plated a run.   georgia has runners on 2nd and 3rd with 2 outs.   Auburn leads 7-5

[WarTiger 3,901]

Carlson gets a strikeout to get out of the inning.  Auburn leads 7-5.     Announcers are down right clueless and comical.   Carlson finally got the outside pitch called a strike on that last batter and the idiot announcers saying the strike zone suddenly changed.  HUH?  Apparently they aren't watching the same game when Auburn is at bat and georgia has been getting those outside pitches called strikes all night. 

[WarTiger 3,901]

Draper, then Wallace, and Cooper coming up.   Let's get a couple insurance runs here.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Draper bounces it back to the pitcher.  1 out.

[saminbama 740]

Ditto, WT.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Wallace flies to right.  2 outs.  Kasey Cooper up.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Cooper walks.   Haley Fagan up.   Come on Haley.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Fagan walks again (4th time).   Runners on 1st and 2nd for Courtney Shea.

[WarTiger 3,901]

wild pitch moves the runners to 2nd and 3rd.

[AUBwins 10,075]

I bet pitchers hate facing our lineup.  So patient at the plate and don't chase much.  We do stare at good pitches down the middle though a good bit. 

[WarTiger 3,901]

Shea draws a walk and Auburn has the bases loaded with 2 outs.  Kendall Veach up.   Hit it out right here Kendall.

[AUBwins 10,075]

Veach got worked there. 

[WarTiger 3,901]

Veach strikes out to end the top 7th.   Auburn leads 7-5.
