[AUBwins 10,064]

Crap!

[AUBwins 10,064]

Crap again!

[WarTiger 3,896]

Auburn missed a golden opportunity to take the lead back in the 5th, and now are in a deeper deficit in the 6th at 3-1 and only 1 out.

[WarTiger 3,896]

Veach's foot didn't leave the base until she had completed the catch.  That cost Auburn a run.

[AU64 10,122]

Looking like that one hour team meeting is not paying dividends tonight

 

[WarTiger 3,896]

4-1 now.   2 errors in the inning have made this an inning that shouldn't have happened.  Chopper to Fagan and it takes a wicked hop on her and she has no play.  I think that one hit her right under the throat.    missouri has them loaded now with 2 outs.

[AU64 10,122]

Fagan did not have her eye on the ball ...probably distracted by the base runner....and not a good hop either...at least that did not cost us another run.

[WarTiger 3,896]

blooper to veach and she makes the catch just in foul territory to end the inning.   Auburn now trails 4-1 going to the bottom 6th.    Veach, Greenwood and Shea coming up.

[WarTiger 3,896]

Veach flies to center. 1 out.  Greenwood up.

[WarTiger 3,896]

Greenwood grounds to 2nd.  2 outs.   Shea up.

[WarTiger 3,896]

Shea pops it up to 2nd to end the 6th.   Auburn trailing 4-1.   We have to get to the bottom half of the 7th without giving up any more runs.   Gotta find a way. 

[WarTiger 3,896]

2 run homer for missouri and its 6-1.   That's their 3rd home run tonight.  DAMN IT.

[AU64 10,122]

ug...just checked back from the baseball game to find this....MIzz better that expected this season I guess but getting handled at home like this is no fun.

[WarTiger 3,896]

Auburn going to the bottom 7th and need 5 to keep the game going.    McCrackin, Draper and back to the top of the order with Wallace due up.  Expecting a pinch hitter for McCrackin here.

[autigeremt 6,562]

Gonna have nights like this. We are missing the bats we've had the last two seasons.

[WarTiger 3,896]

Jenna Abbott pinch hitting here as expected.
