        You won't see many defensive gems by a 3rd baseman any better than this one by Mackenzie



        Mackenzie may have to change her name to Brooke Robinson.

          So happy that the Lady Shocks are having this success in the NCAAs. I really felt bad for them how the regular season and AAC tournament went after their great season to that point. Their season deserved a better ending and hoping they can continue it.

            This game was suspended, tied 5-5.

            #3 UCLA and #9 South Carolina are the only National Seeds with a loss heading into Sunday's play.

              RH articles centering on Bailey and Madison.

              Both include some very gracious quotes from Coach Gajewski.

                Some nice comments by Madison about Coach 2E.

              I don't know how to do it, but there's a ton of videos of great Shocker plays, hits, and homers to put on here!

                Some may not get Korey Toregerson's 1st tweet in the chain (the bread and butter) but Madison's nickname is Butters.

                  Mackenzie Wright defensive gem #1 in the top of the 1st to save 1, maybe 2 runs or more.



                  After a 1-out walk to Asea Webber in the 2nd inning Ryleigh Buck and Paige Luellen single back-to-back to score the Shockers 1st run.





                  In the top of the 3rd with runners on the corners Bailey Lange gets a big stirke out on a rise ball to end the OSU threat.



                  With 2 outs in the bottom of the 3rd Laurie Derrico extends the inning with a single to left followed by Madison's 1st home run a towering shot over the left field wall.





                  After OSU scored 4 runs in the top fo the 4th to take the lead at 4-3 with the help of 3 walks by Bailey and a throwing error by Madison the momentum had shifted to the OSU dugout. A sharply hit ball down the 3rd base line to lead off the 5th looked like it would be a sure double but Mackenzie delivered defensive gem #2 to record an out instead. Shades of Brooks Robinson indeed.



                  In the bottom of the 5th Mackenzie drops a so-so bunt but is safe when the OSU pitcher bobbles the ball just a little before throwing to 1st. 2-outs later Madison sits on a change-up on a full count and blasts a no-doubter to left field for her 2nd 2-out, 2-run homer of the game and put the Shocks back on top at 5-4.





                  A tiring Bailey beginning her 19th inning in 2 days loads the bases on a 1-out infield single and a two walk and hit batter. Bailey made what was called the key play of the game by the OSU coach to end the inning.

                  https://twitter.com/twitter/statuses/998018468392964097..

                  With Bailey grinding the bottom of the 7th was no easier. A 1-out walk followed by a soft single to RF by the OSU 7 and hole hitter put runners on 1st and 2nd for OSU. After a sac bunt by the 9-hole hitter moved the runners to 2nd and 3rd the Shocks had little recourse but to walk lead off hitter Vanessa Shippy and her 0.471 batting average to load the bases for the second time in the game.. They did the same thing in the 4th with not such a good outcome. Taylor Lynch, a 0.360 hitter with 8 home runs followed. Lynch fouled off a 2-2 pitch before the count went full at 3-2. Lynch fouled off another pitch before popping out to Laurie Derrico as SS to end a very entertaining and tense game.

                    • Game Time. Bailey Lange in the circle for the Shocks. Autumn Storms gets the call for Arkansas.

                      • Shocks get on the board in the 1st with 1-out bloop double by Bailey who promptly stole 3rd base and scored on Laurie;s single to left, a high bouncer over the 3rd basemen's head. The inning ended on an outstanding play by the Arkansas 3rd baseman on sharply hit grounder down the line by Asea.

                        • Arkansas gets 2 infield singles and a bloop single to RF to score a run and then took the lead on a sac fly to RF. That was followed the 1st hard hit ball of the inning a single to CF. Now a walk loads the bases with only 1 out.

                          Shocks should have been out of he regional but misplayed a double play chance allowing the 3rd run of the inning to score. Basically, a bit of a brain cramp by both Ryleigh and Madison.

                          Might be that the moment and environment might be a bit more than the Shocks are ready for and just not sure how much Bailey has left to give.

                            • Caitlyn Bingham is on to start the 2nd for the Shocks. Hits the lead off batter on her first pitch.

                              After that retired the 1-2-3 hole hitters in order and very efficiently.
