Jenny just hired an associate head coach from Oregon state (he had same position there), so perhaps a package deal. The same thought occurred to me! I'd be willing to bet that the hiring of Jonas Chatterton, the Oregon State coach influenced Raegan a bunch! Jenny just got through making a home-run ...

This is how its been the majority of the year. Get runners on base and leave them there. It looks like we are hoping to walk, being unwilling to swing until we have to. There's something(s)? obviously wrong. I've been thinking a little bit more about Game 1 of the Bedlam series, and have come to th...

OUr failure to jump on their starting pitcher Aycock (a little surprised it wasn't Kilfoyl with the start) really hurt us. Aycock walked a lot of Sooners, but we didn't get the timely hits, which is getting to be too commonplace a thing! Aycock and Kilfoyl combined to hold the Sooners to only 3 hits...

There really is no silver lining, as we had all hoped for a 3 game sweep. That ain't gonna happen, now. But if there IS a silver lining, it's that their ace, Kilfoyl is probably not in the immediate future for them, although she might appear in relief in Game 3. OUr best hope, now, is to win the nex...

Sooners go 1-2-3 in the bottom of the inning, Pokes win Game 1. Pokes 6 runs, 7 hits 3 errors 4 LOB; OU 3 runs, 3 hits, 0 errors, 8 LOB.

Torres just did what she shoulda done in the 1st! A double to get the first hit off Kilfoyl! Sanders got lucky, the Poke 3rd baseman dropped what should have been a foul ball out. Gets the walk, 2 on, brings up Rylie Boone, who pops up for the 2nd out. It's up to Jayda, 2 on, and 2 out. Infield sing...

If we lose, as appears a strong possibility, the tone for the rest of the game was set in the bottom of the 1st inning. OU up by 1-0 (thanks to 4 walks), bases juiced, and one out.

So, what happens? Parker and Torres fly out to the Poke outfielders, we leave the bases loaded.

LOBs will kill ya.

This is really discouraging, the Aggies roughing up what I'd consider our top two pitchers, and no cheap stuff, they are just flat-out knocking the cover off the ball!

6-2 after 4 1/2 innings. As expected, Texas is kicking butt in Lubbock 13-2 after 5.

And now another dinger, this one a 2 run shot by Godwin. 6-2 Pokes. They are looking like OU , the way they're swingin' the bats.

Not good. Kierston comes in and gives up a leadoff homer to Poullard. Trailing 4-2 and Kilfoyl in the circle for the Pokes.

Maxwell is serving up some fat pitches, it would seem: two doubles to Godwin, now a solo homer to Wark. We trail 3-2... and getting outhit by the Pokes 4-1.

We are a better-hitting team than this! Come on, Sooners, get those bats to going!

Aycock has given up 6 walks out of the 16 batters that she has faced, we have 2 runs, one hit.

Maxwell, on the other hand, has given up 3 hits and 2 walks (2 doubles by Godwin) and we have a tie game in the bottom of the 3rd, due to a double-play that got the Pokes out of the inning.

I think the amount of "clutchness" displayed by the last few teams are abnormal and should not be expected to continue at all despite having the same players. But it also what makes those team belong in the discussion of greatest team of all time. This year's team is just a normal good so...

WOW, we have a Jayda Coleman sighting!! Whatta play by Jayda to take away a double by the UCF slugger Halajian! After 4 innings, the score is 7-5, Sooners!

Two innings, two 2-run dingers. I'm ready to see Nicole take a seat...
