Taryne?

Probably. Kenzie would have been but injuries and the BS ump calls led to her never reaching her potential.

Not an ideal start obviously, but just time to bear down

Florida St? My Niece pitched for FSU in a super at Hillenbrand and Espinoza took her yard for a grand salami LOL

Postmaster · Post by **Postmaster** » Thu Jun 03, 2021 9:17 pm

FSU looked almost s overmatched as us.

There's an excellent chance (1) Oklahoma will play (2) UCLA or (3) Alabama in the loser's bracket tomorrow. Who had that on their bingo card?

I think we beat FSU and probably James Madison to make it to the final four and then lose to the UCLA/Alabama winner. If it's Alabama again, we have to learn to lay off that rise ball (easier said than done).

I thought the UofA/FSU winner plays the loser of the Alabama/UCLA game.

Yeah I thought Oklahoma was on the other side of the bracket.

The bracket shows the winner of our game gets the loser of Ok St/James Madison.

This is correct. If we win the first one tomorrow against FSU, we flip to play from the top half of the bracket.

JMU beats Okie Light

azcat49 · Post by **azcat49** » Fri Jun 04, 2021 6:29 pm

First unseeded team to go 2-0 and that play on the squeeze bunt by the pitcher to get the runner was incredible

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Fri Jun 04, 2021 6:42 pm

I’m starting to dig this JMU team.

I feel like this is their tournament win. Love the Cats, but JMU is fun to watch. Unless we meet up with them.

UAEebs86 · Post by **UAEebs86** » Fri Jun 04, 2021 8:27 pm

Fouts looks unhittable.

Irish27 · Post by **Irish27** » Fri Jun 04, 2021 9:13 pm

This might be James Madison's first World Series appearance, but they have been a good program for a while. They came to Tucson 5 years ago and beat the Cats in both games they played.

Yes, I question the seeding more than marvel at “Cinderella”.

She is now forever in the top 5 of all college softball pitchers ever. What a stunning two game performance against top competition!!!

Alabama v. JMU should be worth watching!!!

AZCatGirl · Post by **AZCatGirl** » Sat Jun 05, 2021 11:33 am

They're doing a really nice segment on Candrea right now.

azgreg · Post by **azgreg** » Sat Jun 05, 2021 11:44 am

Denham in the circle.

Postmaster · Post by **Postmaster** » Sat Jun 05, 2021 11:49 am

Why all the speculation about Candrea?

I thought he might have left after last year if not for Wu-Flu.

ekat · Post by **ekat** » Sat Jun 05, 2021 11:55 am

Well, at least all 3 actually hit the ball instead of whiffing. Progress.

A base hit here with the bases loaded would be nice.

Postmaster · Post by **Postmaster** » Sat Jun 05, 2021 12:51 pm

Not optimal but we will take it

PieceOfMeat · Post by **PieceOfMeat** » Sat Jun 05, 2021 12:52 pm

woulda loved to get at least one more across the plate, but I'm not complaining about leading 2-0 right now.
let's goooo

walked one, hit another, then gave up the 3 run homer, throwing error, this inning is shitty

That would have been interference if the throw was anywhere near the first baseman.
