Catcher set up in front of plate giving the runner a path to the plate. Only moved into the path to catch the ball. Ball beat the runner. As a former umpire, that was a bad call. What is the catcher supposed to do, let the ball get by her??
I think Gracyn's BA was .111 last year. Not much better first two years. Was hoping she got better over Summer and Fall. But it is only the fifth game of the season so maybe ...
Top of 4th KP has an error but then we get a double play to end the inning. How many DP's this year? Not many if any. But they will come - we have been good at them for years.
Frankie beautiful bunt single. KP up. KP flies out, Frankie stays at 1B. Two outs. Frankie steals second, great slide. Ariel (aka AK) hard hit to CF but caught. End of inning, headed to Top of 6th.
I'm also really curious about her status. She was fantastic in HS and Coach has mentioned her only one time in the last several months. After a year redshirt I think she has had plenty of 'practice'. Gosh, at least let her get a few innings early in the year because we never know what will happen later.
PC gets a second single, runners at the corners with only one out. Infield popup for second out. Sidne gets a 2-2 count swing and miss to get out of the inning - whew !!
Micaela sends one waaaaaay out of there for a solo homer, Ags up 8-2. Gosh, that girl can really hit the ball hard !!! 253' to straight out center. Eighth Aggie homer of the tournament.
