Softball vs #7 Florida

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Steal attempt, Godwin with a nice throw and a nice tag on her hand. Going to review but this should be pretty quick as it was called out on the field.

Yep, call stands.

Single though extends the inning. That caught stealing was super important. Another double, another run scores. Gotta get Dismukes out of there.

5-2 Florida

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Another single, another run scores. Godwin gets knocked over at home plate, hope she's okay.

Don't know what else Dean has to see to get Dismukes out of the game.

6-2 Florida

Another single. Runners on the corner. Guess Dean just wants to make sure we have no shot at coming back this game.

Hard hit ball and if it wasn't for a jumping Packer catch it would have been two more runs. Luckily it's just a fly out.

Blaine, Garcia, Ellis coming up. Gotta get these runs back.

6-2 Florida B4th

Florida goes to a new pitcher that has a 1.07 ERA. Gonna be difficult to get those 4 runs back.

Blaine strikes out.

Garcia grounds out to 3rd.

Ellis pops up to 3rd.

6-2 Florida T5th

 

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Sigh ...

Dismukes gets the first two outs. Then an infield single.

Followed up by a stolen base and a throwing error by Godwin. Runner scores.

Edit: Gets out of the inning with a ground out. Really need our batters to get some runs back if we're gonna have a chance.

Schmidt, Godwin, Cox coming up.

7-2 Florida

Lisenby hits for Schmidt and it's a 1 pitch groundout to 2b.

Godwin with a soft liner to 2B on a 3-2 count.

Cox 2 pitch ground out to 2b.

1 hit is all we've mustered.

7-2 Florida T6th

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Dismukes nice bounce back the last 2 innings. Finally gets a 1-2-3 inning for Auburn pitchers.

McCondichie, Packer, Peralta up.

7-2 Florida B6th

[tgrogan21 6,198]

McCondichie strikes out.

Packer walks on 5 pitches.

PERALTA HOMERS! That didn't look like a homer at first but it just carried over the wall!!

7-4 Florida

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Blaine strikes out for the 3rd time.

Garcia reaches on an error.

Ellis strikes out looking.

7-4 Florida T7th

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Dismukes gives up a single but nothing else. Nice job from her after that horrible inning.

Lisenby, Godwin, Cox coming up. Lets go get that walk-off!

7-4 Florida B7th

 

[tgrogan21 6,198]

3-2 walk by Lisenby.

Godwin strikes out on 3 pitches.

[tgrogan21 6,198]

COX DOUBLES!!! JUST BEATS THE TAG!! LISENBY IS ON 3RD

TYING RUN IS AT THE PLATE!!

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Smith runs for Cox.

McCondichie with a sac fly. Lisenby scores!

Still need a homer to tie. Packer coming up!

PACKER LINE DRIVE TRIPLE!!!!!

SMITH SCORES!!!!

THE RBI MACHINE PERALTA UP TO BAT!!

7-6 FLORIDA

[TD1 227]

@tgrogan21 I guess you highlighting Packer's slump helped us out. Big time hit for her. 

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Peralta walks!

Blaine has struck out 3 times. Time for her redemption!!!!

Need to do it more often, I guess. lol

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Damn it.

Blaine grounds out to 3B. The rally comes up short.

Florida wins 7-6

Going for the series win tomorrow!

I’m not a big fan of pulling Lowe that early. If she’s hurting that’s one thing but if it’s just her getting hit then he’s gotta let her get through it.

Wonder if it was a strategic move to save her and Penta for tomorrow. Even after Dismukes had 8 straight hits against her, Dean stayed with her. Seems like it might have been a strategy to save our best two for tomorrow to get the series W.

Proud of the effort for the girls coming back.  We haven't gone quietly in any game but one to UCLA.  Go get it tomorrow.

The other reason for leaving Dismukes in might be to give her experience.  We're accustomed to thinking of Dismukes as the #3 pitcher, but if Lowe's condition continues to trouble her, Dismukes may be #2 with Lowe coming for short stints in relief.  Wondering who is pitching for UAB, as Oklahoma beat them only 2-0 today (6 hits).  Also, Georgia beat alabama 5-3 in Tuscaloosa.

Keep hearing how GA is ahead of us on HR this year. They must have some sluggers as well

Thats what they did in another series. Lowe pitched little, and then saved her for the rubber game in relief, and I think actually saved it for Penta. 

Today will be another matchup I guess of Friday's starters...

[AUBwins 10,074]

Let's go girls and win this game today and get a little respect from the voters.  People don't believe in us at the moment, keeping us at 17 this weekend despite playing everyone tough.  

I know we just need to be there in the end but really big chance to win a series against Florida.
