In the sixth, Paige singled and her pinch runner, Cassidy, advanced to second on a sac bunt by Morgan. Bailey doubled home Cassidy.
8-2 as we go to the bottom of the sixth.

It is more common that runners not advance the number of bases associated with baseball, but 13 is a big LOB nonetheless.Originally posted by WuShock16 View Post

Agreed. It is a bit more station-to-station and balls in the gap are reached by the outfielders much more quickly but year, 13 is a big number. On the ohter hand it is not that common to get that many runners on base in order to leave them on. The key here was we just could not get the big 2-out hit a couple of times with the bases juiced. If we had this game would be over unless they don't have mercy rule in the NCAA Tournament. -
The mercy rule is still used. It has come into play in at least one of the other Regionals.

BaileyL seemed to get better as the game progressed. Only 2 hits over the final 6 innings.
Coming into this season the Shocks were 8-79 all-time against the OSU Cowgirls. I wonder what kind of odds you could have gotten for a bet that the Shocks would beat them 3 times this year.Comment

Or maybe not. I have to HCTB and ACEE some credit. Kudos to PCRS for apparently putting toghether a good plan of attack for Bailey as well. And, of course, none of that makes much difference if the players don't exist and that they did.Originally posted by flyingMoose View Post

Great win!Comment

Do you bring Bailey to start tomorrow's game (now this possibility is yugely different than baseball)? I think I would but we'll see. It worked well for Tulsa in the AAC Tournament.Comment

This is the way you lock up a long-armed hitter who crowds the plate.

I think you have no choice but to start Bailey. There is no reason to think anyone else has even the faintest chance of getting a win - well, maybe a 15-13 win.Originally posted by 1972Shocker View Post
Mary Haff is pitching the game against DePaul, so Autumn Storms would be the presumed starter tomorrow against the Shockers, assuming a Razorback win.

A grand slam in the fourth capped the scoring for the Hurricane. Watson gave up four hits and struck out three.

A three-run pinch double in the sixth is too much for the Bulls to overcome although they score a run in the seventh. They had only two hits.Last edited by flyingMoose; May 18, 2018, 07:20 PM.Comment
