[WarTiger 3,901]

Missouri runner attempts to steal 2nd and Wallace throws a perfect ball to get her out at 2nd. That's only the 2nd time the Missouri lead off hitter has been caught stealing this year.. Got us out of the inning. Goingn to top 3rd. 2-2 Cooper, Melero and Fagan due up for Auburn.

[GBAU83 212]

Nice play by Carlee Wallace to get Gadbois on the attempted steal. Not sure she wasn't safe, but I'll take the call. Lot better than the strike zone of plate umpire. Definitely a hitters umpire at the plate and we need to take advantage of it.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Cooper rips one to left and just out of the reach of the left fielder and its fair. Cooper stands easily at 2nd. Melero coming up..

[WarTiger 3,901]

Nice play by Carlee Wallace to get Gadbois on the attempted steal. Not sure she wasn't safe, but I'll take the call. Lot better than the strike zone of plate umpire. Definitely a hitters umpire at the plate and we need to take advantage of it.

Umpire today has been fine. Yesterdays was all over the place...

[WarTiger 3,901]

Wild pitch and cooper moves up to 3rd

[Cat4AU 0]

She looked safe to me. AU is going to have to fight for everything they get. I know what everyone is meaning about our pitching though. Sure hope coach can get some good pitchers in recruiting this year.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Mlelero hits sharply to first and throws home to get cooper... Cooper was never tagged but called out at home. Now, they have put cooper back at 3rd and called the batter out, now cooper is leaving again and Melero at 1st..... Massive confusion.

[WarTiger 3,901]

Fagan grounds intoa fielders choice. Fagan at 1st with 2 outs for Rhodes.
