Top of 2: and the call is - dead ball - ball, but no HBP. I don't agree. Heivilin flies out to CF. White grounds out to third - 2 down. Preuitt flies out to CF. On to bottom of 2nd.

 

[Krymsonman]

Bottom of 2nd: Ground out to 3rd, 1 down. Ground out to SS, 2 down. Ground out to 3B, inning over. Briski looking sharp so far. Let's keep it up. 4-0 BAMA after 2 complete.

 

[Krymsonman]

Top of 3rd: Cahalan singles to left, out at second on bunt by Johnson, 1 down. Giles flies out to left, 2 down. Valentine K's, inning over. Going to bottom of 3.

 

[Cruloc]

Got her swinging.....big out.....got out of that after a lead off double......excellent.

 

[Krymsonman]

Bottom of 3: Lead off double for Tennessee. Followed by a K, 1 down. Squib over to 1st, 2 down, runner advances to 3rd. Briski K's Malloy for the second time. Inning over. I have never seen a team call time out as often as Tennessee, in the middle of an at bat, to go talk to the hitting coach. On to the 4th, still 4-0 BAMA. We need more runs.

I imagine that's more about disrupting the pitcher, but the umps allow it so its going to get done until they stop it.

Top of 4th: Tennessee makes a pitching change, bringing in Pickens. Let's light her up like we did int he 14th inning yesterday. Dowling flies out to RF, 1 down. Esman grounds out to pitcher, 2 down. Hievilin bloops out to 1B, going to bottom of 4th. Keep dealing it Briski!!

I think the magic number is 6. When Tennessee starts counting outs they are going to be in rally mode. Idk if 4 is enough.

Yep. This is “step on them” time. You keep adding a run here and there, it breaks their will.

 

[Krymsonman]

Bottom of 4th: Heivilin climbs the ladder and snags a smoked line drive, 1 down. Pop out to SS behind 3rd base, 2 down. Ground ball single up the middle, runner on 1st. Tight zone back there blue. Walk given up by Briski. Runners on 1st and 2nd. Grounder to 3rd, Dowling steps on the bag, inning over. No damage done. Still 4-0 BAMA after 4 complete. Time to add to that number BAMA!!

 

[Cruloc]

If White can get on....they'll get at least one run

 

[Cruloc]

Well, that's a no go. Super fast runner, slap it to the left side.....on the ground.

 

[Krymsonman]

Top of 5th: White pops out to SS, 1 down. Lauren Johnson K's, 2 down. Cahalan, ground ball up the middle, safe at first. Jenna Johnson, single up the middle. We need a base hit now! Wild pitch, runners advance. 3-2 count to Giles. And she strikes out looking at a pitch right down the middle. (not to mention she swung a what would have been balls 3 and 4 before that. Oh well. We need to be a little more clutch. On to the bottom of 5.

Why did ESPN reset Briski's pitch count? I keep looking at that thinking I missed a pitching change

 

[BamaFossil]

Alabama still must not have a batting coach. Players are swinging at balls that bounce off the ground... swinging at ankle-high pitches... Tough to watch.
Comm'on Bama!

Bottom of 5: Pop out to CF, 1 down. Grounder back to Briski, 2 down, ground out to SS. Inning over. Briski still dealing. Still 4-0 BAMA after 5 complete.

I don't know. I missed that.

Isn't it the hitting coach that brought that "mudita" garbage?

Murph is and always has been the batting coach.

After an entire season of seemingly scoring one run a game, I know I’m being greedy but would love to get one more to pad the lead. UT can score 4 in a hurry
