FirefightnRick

texas gets a single then sac bunt,...and they win it on an error in the outfield..2-3. Great game. That’s championship caliber pitching by Hope Trautwein. This team is gonna be in the thick of another CUSA Championship playing like that. Rick

Pitching change, Bailey Tindall to the circle. Rick

Strand our 10th runner after Callahan drove one up the middle. Bottom of the 9th coming up. Rick

Trautwein sets em down 1-2-3 in the 8th. Shes at 108 pitches. North Texas’s has stranded 9 runners. texas has stranded 8. Rick

And tU gets out of a bases loaded jam. Still pretty impressive to battle that level of a pitcher like that. I love this team. To the bottom of the 8th we go. Rick

2 outs, bases loaded for Ocho at the plate....Come on ladies!!! Rick

Bases loaded. Rick

We got 2 on, 1 out. Heres our chance!!! Rick

Rick

And the wheels fall off... 2-2 on a wild pitch, with one out, winning run on 3rd. Rick

They got Elish in for the final two innings. She’s their #1, a transfer all everything from Oregon. We still managed to get a runner on though but couldn’t do anything after. Bottom of the 7th we go. Rick

Come on ladies!!! Rick

Come on ladies!!! Rick

HT gives up a single but closes out the inning. Top of the 7th we go leading 2-1. Rick

Top of the 6th we go leading 2-1. Rick

Check out the bio of the pitcher tU started against us today, Shealyn O’leary. She’s 6’2”, was basically THE freshman pitcher of the year last year. Went 14-4 and finished as the National E.R.A. Champion at .065. Today she started at .044. And Hope Trautwein out battled her thru 3 innings.. what a great job! Rick

Trautwein pitches out of some trouble leaving a runner on 2nd with a strike out. We’re 9 outs away but could really use some insurance. Rick

Ocho drives one for a double in the 4th, forces a pitching change.. LMAO!!! we’re giving em all they want folks!!! Rick

Trautwein is like... ...and sets em down 1-2-3 in the 3rd. We still lead 2-1. Rick

Starting to rain pretty heavily. Rick

Nervous 1st inning outing by Trautwein as she walks three batters but only surrenders 1 run. Top of the 2nd we go with the Mean Green up 2-1. Rick

Woo hoo, jumped on em early! Rick
